‘This is your last chance’: SC ultimatum to govt over front pack warning labels

 The Supreme Court has expressed strong disapproval towards the government’s procrastination regarding food warning labels, specifically calling out the FSSAI. The justices mandated that the Centre has a fortnight to cement its decision, prioritizing public health, particularly for children. The court dismissed claims surrounding traditional foods and foreign standards, signaling that judicial actions could follow if a definitive choice remains absent. The Supreme Court has expressed strong disapproval towards the government’s procrastination regarding food warning labels, specifically calling out the FSSAI.
