In a notice issued after a meeting with Nestle's global CEO Paul
Bulcke on Thursday, the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India
also said it was evident that Nestle had failed to comply with its
obligations under India's food safety laws.
While reserving the right to prosecute, the FSSAI issued a series of
orders to Nestle, including withdrawing nine versions of its Maggi
instant noodles and another product that was being sold without
product approval.
Nestle had earlier on Friday announced the temporary recall of its
Maggi noodles across India.
