Chandigarh: The samples of Maggi noodles seized from three different distributors in the city 10 days ago have been found meeting the standards of the Food Safety Act, according to a report issued by the Haryana Government lab in the city on Wednesday.
Fresh samples of Maggi were taken from three different locations today. These included two units in the Industrial Area, Phase I, and a booth in Sector 35. These samples will be sent for analysis to the Haryana Government lab in Sector 11. The reports will be released after 14 days.
In view of the directives issued by the Food and Drugs Authority, New Delhi, sampling will continue in the city, said sources. On May 22, a team of the UT Food Safety Cell had raided three units of distributors of Maggi in the city and had seized samples for analysis.
This move followed two days after a government lab in Kolkata detected the presence of monosodium glutamate (MSG) and lead content “beyond the permissible limits” in the Maggi samples sent from Lucknow.
Three samples were seized — one each from the distributors in the Industrial Area Phase I and II, and Daria village — on May 22.
The sources said if the samples collected today were found substandard or unsafe for human consumption, action would be taken as per the FSSAI guidelines. It would either result in the seizure of the stocks or recall of the particular batch.
