Govt to launch 'Right Food, Healthy Rajasthan' campaign from Oct 3
Jaipur, Oct. 2 -- The Rajasthan government will launch a state-wide awareness campaign on safe, nutritious and healthy eating from October 3 to 16, with activities planned across schools, colleges, hospitals, markets and other public places.
The 'Right Food, Healthy Rajasthan' campaign will focus on promoting safe food practices, combating adulteration and encouraging consumption of locally produced and nutritious food. Its central message will be: "Eat safe, stay healthy, eat local, defeat adulteration."
The campaign is being organised under the direction of principal secretary, Medical and Health, Gayatri Rathore, with the participation of food safety officers, mobile food-testing laboratories, educational institutions and other stakeholders.
The first phase on October 3 and 5 will focus on 'School Eat Right Day', with students being educated about healthy tiffins, nutritious breakfasts, millets, proper handwashing and reading food labels. Schools will also organise poster, slogan and essay competitions and identify 'Master/Miss Eat Right' student ambassadors.
On October 6 and 7, the 'Identify Adulteration, Defeat Adulteration' drive will use mobile food-testing laboratories to demonstrate simple methods to detect adulteration in milk, ghee, edible oil, spices, sweets and other food products. Food samples brought by members of the public will be tested on the spot.
The 'Healthy Rajasthan-Healthy Thali Day' on October 8 and 9 will promote locally available nutritious food and encourage people to reduce salt, sugar and oil in their diets. People will be encouraged to include fruits, vegetables, pulses, milk and curd and millets in their daily meals.
On October 11 and 12, the 'Read the Label-Eat Right, Eat Safe' campaign will educate consumers about checking FSSAI licence or registration numbers, manufacturing and packing dates, best-before or expiry dates, ingredients, nutritional information and vegetarian/non-vegetarian symbols before buying packaged food....
