Look at the advertisement of Nutri Choice Biscuits: Junk Food Product The Britannia Nutrichoice Digestive High Fibre Biscuit is High in added sugars(12.1g), total fats (20.8g) and sodium (362 mg )per 100g as per NIN Guidelines for Indians. As per NOVA classification it is Ultra-Processed Food product containing emulsifier, invert sugar syrup, raising agents, malt extract, artificial flavouring substances and dough conditioner. These biscuits cannot be considered healthy. Yet advertised as a ‘healthy’ and ‘good choice’ on World Health Day and endorsed by none other than Amir Khan. Question : Shouldn’t Junk Food Ads Go Off Print & Air? Appreciate your response !!

tribuneindia.com/news/india/amu… @thetribunechd @Amul_Coop This amounts to promotion of infant formula which is prohibited. And the Teddy bear on the label is also prohibited @Amul_Coop Why it is so difficult to abide by the law ? @MoHFW_INDIA @MinistryWCD @PMOIndia Must look into
