Maharashtra Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Commissioner Tukaram Mundhe has expressed appreciation for the social media backing he received from Bollywood figures, specifically Preity Zinta and Mallika Sherawat.
However, he stressed that symbolic displays of support must be followed by concrete measures to ensure food safety.
Urging the public to actively report unsafe food items, Mundhe underscored that safeguarding food quality is a shared responsibility among all citizens.
Additionally, he issued a caution regarding celebrity endorsements of detrimental products, pointing out the serious consequences such promotions can have on public health.
