This follows recent inspections at Delhi's JW Marriott and Andaz hotels, which revealed issues such as cockroach infestations, expired food, foul odors, and poor sanitation. FSSAI has increased random inspections and urged all major hotels to maintain strict compliance with hygiene and safety standards, with hotel operators reporting adherence and progress on compliance frameworks.
