· Business · Times of India, Hindustan Times
The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India has ordered CG Foods India Pvt Ltd to stop manufacturing 'Veg Bhujia Namkeen' at its Ajmer, Rajasthan, unit. Regulators seized over 32,000 kg of stock after finding evidence of unsafe processing, such as re-using floor-collected broken noodles without heat treatment. The inspection also identified unlicensed manufacturing of 'Wai-Wai MaMa' and 'Wai-Wai Mama Punte' variants, alongside hygiene lapses and the use of predated packaging. The company now faces strict legal proceedings as authorities await laboratory analysis results from the collected samples.
