Chips, Burgers and Cold Drinks to be Banned in Delhi Schools
Location:(Delhi)

Some schools serve food that is appalling. On one hand we’re trying to battle lifestyle diseases like diabetes, cholesterol and obesity, and on the other hand we're allowing the sale of food that's triggering them.

After accepting the PIL, in 2012 the Delhi High Court directed FSSAI to frame guidelines for making available quality and safe food in schools. The draft guidelines titled “Guidelines for Making Available Wholesome, Nutritious, Safe and Hygienic Food to School Children in India” will restrict the sale of junk food in and around schools.
