On September 24, an important Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed between the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) and Australia's Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry (DAFF) at FSSAI Headquarters, New Delhi.
This collaboration marks a pivotal step in bolstering Indo-Australian relations, particularly in reinforcing food safety standards. Under the agreement, knowledge sharing and technical collaboration will pave the way for modernized food safety measures, shared import procedures, and capacity-building initiatives.
FSSAI further solidified its commitment to streamlining food safety by launching a specialized portal for licensing Ayurveda Aahara products. This initiative intends to align traditional foods with contemporary safety norms, providing a regulated path for Ayurvedic food to enter the market.
