			<title>SC gave the government two weeks to take a final call on introducing warning labels for packaged foods. NEW DELHI: Supreme Court on Thursday sharply criticised the Centre and the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) over the delay in introducing front-of-pack warning labels for packaged food products high in sugar, salt and saturated fat, warning that it would issue directions if the government failed to take a final decision.A bench of Justices JB Pardiwala and K Vinod Chandran gave the Centre two weeks to place its final decision on record, making it clear that the government could either implement the proposed warning labels on its own or face judicial intervention.&#8221;This is your last chance. Next time we will dictate the judgment,&#8221; the bench said, according to ANI.The court repeatedly underlined that the issue was one of public health, particularly the health of children and questioned the government&#8217;s reluctance to move ahead with stronger nutritional warnings.&#8221;Why? You don&#8217;t want people of this country to remain healthy? More particularly growing children?&#8221; the bench asked during the hearing.Appearing for the Centre, additional solicitor general Brijender Chahar argued that applying strict warning standards could create complications for traditional Indian food items. He said products such as namkeen could end up carrying red warning symbols because of their fat or salt content.He also argued that international nutritional standards might not be directly applicable to Indian dietary habits, pointing out that even two eggs could exceed the prescribed daily fat limit.The court, however, was unconvinced.The bench said consumers were already aware that packaged foods contained sugar, fat and carbohydrates, but front-of-pack warning labels would provide a simpler and more effective way of communicating nutritional risks before a purchase was made.The judges also rejected the argument that warning labels could adversely affect manufacturers.According to ANI, the bench observed that the final decision to purchase a product would continue to rest with consumers and that commercial considerations could not take precedence over public health.During the proceedings, senior advocate Maninder Singh, appearing for a manufacturer, attempted to make submissions. The court responded by stating that the case concerned the health of citizens and that manufacturers could not determine government policy on the issue.Senior advocate Devadutt Kamat suggested that food products could be categorised differently and that detailed nutritional information should be displayed.The bench clarified that it was not opposed to any particular food product but was only seeking greater consumer awareness.&#8221;In this country, how many people can afford dry fruits? And how many children buy Kurkure? That makes all the difference. We are not against any particular product. We only want the person purchasing it to know what he is consuming,&#8221; the court said, according to ANI.The bench also referred to its February 10, 2026, order, in which it had previously addressed the issue and laid down its observations.During Thursday&#8217;s hearing, the petitioner&#8217;s counsel drew the court&#8217;s attention to the minutes of an FSSAI meeting held on March 7, which allegedly reflected a position contrary to the suggestions made by the court earlier.The judges also took exception to the Centre&#8217;s argument that India could not easily adopt international standards relating to nutritional warnings.&#8221;We do not approve the stance of the Union when it says that it&#8217;s not possible to match the international standards, more particularly developed countries. Should India remain an undeveloped country?&#8221; the bench asked, according to ANI.&#8221;The world should know that India is concerned about the health of its citizens and more particularly children,&#8221; it added.The case stems from a petition seeking mandatory front-of-pack warning labels for packaged food products containing high levels of sugar, salt and saturated fat.The proposed labels are intended to help consumers quickly identify potentially unhealthy products before buying them.Join conversationView All Comments →Share your thoughts in the commentsInsightfulAgreeDisagreeSkepticalConcerningPromisingWorth ReadingBig DevelopmentPost CommentBe respectful · TOI community guidelinesThe issue has also been discussed by Parliament&#8217;s Committee on Subordinate Legislation, headed by Shiv Sena Rajya Sabha MP Milind Deora, who has advocated studying Singapore&#8217;s Nutri-Grade model as a possible template for India.Separately, the Union health ministry has proposed displaying &#8220;sugar and oil boards&#8221; in schools, offices and other public institutions as part of a broader effort to encourage healthier eating habits and reduce excessive consumption of sugar and oil.Get the latest India News and Live updates.

			<title>The SAD chief was visiting the gurdwara with his wife. (File photo) NEW DELHI: Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) chief and former Punjab deputy chief minister Sukhbir Singh Badal was injured after being attacked at a gurdwara in Maharashtra&#8217;s Nanded on Thursday. The assailant, identified as 62-year-old Jaspal Singh, had been staying at the same gurdwara for the past two years.According to police, the attack took place when Badal was visiting Mata Sahib Gurdwara in the Hazur Sahib area.

He also spoke to Badal over the phone to inquire about his condition.Police have detained the accused and launched an investigation into the circumstances that led to the attack. Security has been tightened in and around the gurdwara premises.This was not the first attack on the Akali Dal leader.In December 2024, Badal survived an assassination attempt outside the Golden Temple in Amritsar while performing &#8216;sewadar&#8217; duties after the Akal Takht had pronounced religious punishment on him and several other party leaders over decisions taken during the SAD government&#8217;s tenure between 2007 and 2017.Get the latest India News and Live updates.

			<title>On December 4, 2024, Badal was attacked inside the Golden Temple during a penance ordered by the Akal Takht. NEW DELHI: Sukhbir Singh Badal’s Thursday attack in Nanded marks the second serious attempt on the Shiromani Akali Dal leader’s life. The SAD leader was also attacked two years ago at the Golden Temple when a gunman opened fire at him while Badal was serving religious punishment at the shrine.On December 4, 2024, Badal was attacked at the entrance of the temple, where he was seated in a wheelchair because of his fractured leg, during a penance ordered by the Akal Takht. Video footage from the incident shows the moment the attacker overpowered him within seconds.The footage showed him dressed in a blue sewadar uniform. He was stationed at the temple entrance as part of the punishment pronounced by the Akal Takht over alleged misconduct during his tenure from 2007 to 2017.As Badal sat with a placard around his neck, a man who was later identified as Narayan Singh Chaura approached him and opened fire. The attempt, however, was foiled almost immediately.In the clip, right after the gunman pulled out the weapon, an alert sewadar, believed to be a volunteer associated with an Akali leader, intervened and pushed the assailant’s arm upward as he attempted to fire. The bullet was discharged harmlessly into the air, and the attacker was quickly overpowered by volunteers and others present at the scene.  Watch Badal attacked during penancePolice personnel stationed at the shrine also moved in and apprehended Chaura on the spot. Confirming the swift response, ADCP Harpal Singh said, “No one was injured in the attack.”It was not long after the attempted attack that other sewadars present at the scene assembled together to create a human shield around Badal.  Watch Sewadar prevents shooting attemptDespite the dramatic shooting attempt, Badal remained calm.Still seated in his wheelchair, he continued performing his duties as a sewadar, holding a spear and staying at the temple entrance after the assailant had been detained.In a separate clip, the shooter could be seen being overpowered by the crowd. The people holding the man can be heard asking him his motive for opening fire on the SAD leader.  Watch Shooter overpoweredThe religious punishment had been announced on December 2, 2024, by Sikh high priests for Badal and other Akali leaders in connection with incidents of sacrilege and the pardon granted to controversial Dera Sacha Sauda chief Gurmeet Ram Rahim. The tankhah was part of a reconciliation process led by Sikh religious authorities to address long-standing grievances within the community.Join conversationView All Comments →Share your thoughts in the commentsInsightfulAgreeDisagreeSkepticalConcerningPromisingWorth ReadingBig DevelopmentPost CommentBe respectful · TOI community guidelinesWith Wednesday’s attack once again putting security arrangements at the Golden Temple under scrutiny, the earlier firing incident has returned to focus as a reminder that this was not the first time Sukhbir Singh Badal was targeted while performing religious service at Sikhism’s holiest shrine.Get the latest India News and Live updates.

			<title>NEW DELHI: Air India group has from Thursday started &#8216;mandatory substance screening&#8217; for all pilots following the Phuket-Delhi flight serious incident. The move comes to “protect and sustain” the trust AI had earned over the decades that has been shaken by the pilot-in-command of the Phuket flight testing positive for marijuana. Aviation secretary Samir Sinha had in clear terms asked AI to “take responsibility” and do whatever it takes to ensure safety.AI senior VP (flight operations) captain Manish Uppal wrote to all pilots on Thursday: “For decades, Air India has been the flag bearer of Indian aviation. Over this time the professionalism, skill and commitment to safety of our pilots, together with other staff, has earned the trust of millions of passengers and the wider community. This trust is our most important asset, and it is vital that we do all possible to protect and sustain it. Many of you have recently reached out to share the same sentiment.”“As you know, Air India already fully complies with all regulatory requirements prescribed by India&#8217;s DGCA, which are similar to those practiced in other major aviation jurisdictions including Europe and the US. We nevertheless now feel it is important to go further.
