The Tamil Nadu Foodgrains Merchants Association has, yet again, made a plea for removal of flaws in the Food Safety and Standards (FSS) Act 2006 and Rules and Regulations 2011.

According to a release, a delegation led by the President, S P Jeyaprakasm, met Dr. J Radhakrishnan, Health Secretary and Kumar Jeyant, Food Safety Commissioner, Government of Tamil Nadu, and submitted a detailed memorandum for the same.

The memorandum requested for reforming the present committee of FSS Act, so that a new committee with due representation of all stakeholders is ensured to fully examine the Indian conditions to constructively modify the rules and regulations in the Act.
