FSSAI Orders CG Foods to Halt Veg Bhujia Production Over Safety Violations
India's food regulator FSSAI has ordered CG Foods India, maker of Wai Wai noodles, to stop producing certain veg bhujia products after an inspection at its Rajasthan factory found multiple violations. These included reprocessing broken noodles collected from the floor without heat treatment, unlicensed manufacturing, use of predated packaging dates, and hygiene deficiencies. Authorities seized over 32,000 kg of stock and initiated legal proceedings. Samples were collected for testing as part of a broader national food safety crackdown.
