Maharashtra’s Food and Drug Administration (FDA), led by Tukaram Mundhe, orders infant food manufacturers to display the “Mother’s Milk Is Best” warning on all product packages. The instruction is part of a compliance push focused on infant food labelling requirements.
The FDA’s action follows findings from surveys conducted across Maharashtra, which indicate that some packaged food products are not meeting mandatory requirements. Mint reports that the food safety commissioner says an FDA survey identified non-compliance with required standards in the state. NDTV similarly reports Mundhe’s mandate for the warning label, presenting it as a direct directive to infant food makers.
While the outlets differ in emphasis—Mint focuses more on the survey-based non-compliance with mandatory requirements, and NDTV highlights the specific labelling mandate—they both describe an FDA-led effort to enforce rules on infant food packaging in Maharashtra.
