India is moving closer to implementing stringent new regulations to ban the sale of high-fat, salt, and sugar (HFSS) products both inside school canteens and within a 50-meter radius of educational institutions.
Driven by the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI), the proposed rules aim to curb the escalating crisis of childhood obesity, diabetes, and related health complications.
If enacted, the policy will target popular snacks, sugary beverages, and fast food items heavily marketed to minors, signaling a major push by health authorities to reshape dietary habits across the country's 1.5 million schools.
