SC junks per-serve labelling plea, calls FSSAI's phased FOPL rollout 'ambiguous'; seeks timeline in 10 days

The Supreme Court rejected the packaged food industry's plea for per-serve measurements. The court asked the FSSAI to justify its two-phase implementation plan. It also demanded a clear timeline for stricter food warning labels. The regulator was questioned for not implementing front-of-pack labels after a decade. The court sought clarity on warning label dimensions and prominence.
