India mandates warning posters on high-sugar, high-fat snacks to combat rising health issues.

India's Health Ministry has mandated the installation of warning posters in government institutions, similar to those on cigarette packs, to highlight the high sugar and fat content in popular snacks like samosas and jalebis. This initiative aims to raise awareness about the health risks associated with these foods, as part of a broader effort to combat the country's rising obesity and non-communicable disease rates. The move is part of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's "Fit India" campaign and does not ban the foods but seeks to inform consumers to make healthier choices.
