FSSAI Seizes 200 Quintals of Maggi from Lucknow Warehouse

The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) has seized 200 quintals of instant Maggi
noodles from a warehouse on the outskirts of Lucknow, a senior Uttar Pradesh Food Safety and Drug Authority said.
The central drug officer seized 200 quintals from a company owned gowdown in Banthara area, Additional Food Commissioner (Administration) Ram Araj Maurya said. He, however, said that further details could be revealed only by central authorities.
Shares of Nestle India plunged last week after the FSSAI said it has not given any clean chit to the company's banned Maggi noodles, while rubbishing all-clear reports from two of its empanelled labs citing lapses in tests.
According to a senior UP FDA official, in Lucknow, one more sample of instant Maggi noodles had failed laboratory test last week.
