Union Health and Family Welfare Minister Jagat Prakash Nadda today stressed the need for a multi-dimensional approach to ensure that food consumed by people is safe and healthy. He said food regulators must remain vigilant to changing food habits and market dynamics. The Minister made these remarks while unveiling the logo and brochure of the Global Food Regulators Summit (GFRS) 2025 in New Delhi. He said food is not just nourishment but a force that shapes physical well-being, mental health, emotional balance and societal harmony.

He added that food safety standards and regulations must be regularly updated. Mr Nadda also acknowledged the pivotal role of the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India in raising food safety standards and contributing to global progress in this critical area. The Global Food Regulators Summit will be held on the 26th and 27th of this month at Bharat Mandapam in New Delhi. It is being organised by the FSSAI, alongside the World Food India 2025 event.
