Kunal Kohli Suggests Maharashtra FDA Chief Extend Food Safety Checks to Indian KitchensPreviousNext

Filmmaker Kunal Kohli has suggested that Maharashtra Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Tukaram Mundhe extend his ongoing food safety inspections from restaurants and food outlets to Indian household kitchens. Kohli highlighted that many homes may store expired food items, often kept neatly on shelves or in refrigerators for years without use. He encouraged people to proactively check and clean their kitchens, dubbing it a 'Tukaram Munde cleaning,' amid the FDA's intensified crackdown on food safety violations across Maharashtra.
