The National Nutrition Strategy 2017 prepared by the Niti Aayog as well as the Poshan Abhiyaan also endorse that food safety, clean water and sanitation need to be dovetailed with other aspects of food security. The trained capacity to handle the workload needs to be strengthened. Even the WHO’s ‘Five keys for safer food’ campaign comprising of personal hygiene, adequate cooking, avoiding cross-contamination, keeping food at safe temperatures, and avoiding food from unsafe sources, exists but implementation in our country by all food manufacturers and/or sellers is questionable. In fact, India needs to strengthen training, education and capacity building across all levels of the value chain, and embed food safety in all nutrition programmes.
