Bengal sends samples of Maggi noodles, Kurkure for testing

Apart from Maggi noodles, samples of Kurkure have also been sent for laboratory testing amidst allegations of lapses in food safety standard.
"The Consumer Affairs Department has sent samples of Maggi noodles and one or two other products for testing," State Consumer Affairs Minister Sadhan Pandey today told reporters here.
Asked what the other products were, he said, "Samples of Kurkure are also being sent for testing."
The minister said the samples have been sent to industrial testing laboratory National Test House and if necessary, they could be sent to other laboratories as well.
"The reports are expected within a few days. We will show the reports to the chief minister and then initiate action. We want to give a fair deal so that business is not hampered and people's health is also protected," he said.
