New Year parties under FDA’s check

All the big parties that will happen on the New Year’s Eve across the city can expect the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) department check their platters. The FDA will collect food samples served at restaurants and inspect its quality to see if it is in line with the standards set by Food Safety and Standard Authority of India (FSSAI).
Last year, the FDA inspected about 174 food samples of which only 2% served eatables that didn’t comply with the FSSAI standards.
The department also urges party goers to be aware of the quality of foods they are being served.
