EAT RIGHT CAMPAIGN

TOPIC: Governance

    • The New Delhi district took up this initiative to focus on the health of its personnel across canteens, kitchens and mess in the district.
    • The programme included audit of the campus, capacity building, training and sensitisation, creation of standard operating procedures. Successful completion of these activities lead to the recognition of the campus as Eat Right Campus by FSSAI.

  • The movement aims to cut down salt/sugar and oil consumption by 30% by 2022.
