BMC Headquarters Canteen to Display Nutritional Information After FDA Closure
The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) headquarters canteen, closed in July due to Food and Drug Administration (FDA) food safety violations, reopened in August after achieving 94% compliance. As part of a pilot initiative to promote healthier eating, the canteen will display posters listing ingredients and nutritional values of meals and snacks. The BMC's in-house nutritionist is preparing these details, with plans to extend the initiative to other BMC-run canteens and hospitals.
