Food Safety Standards Authority of India has decided to step up surveillance this year of spices and culinary herbs, fruits and vegetables, salmonella in fish products and fortified rice amid heightened scrutiny of Indian masala brands such as MDH and Everest. The samples will be collected from mandis, malls and mom-and-pop stores across the country as the regulator seeks to enforce better compliance of standards.
