The Kolkata Municipal Corporation today remained tight-lipped over the outcome of tests conducted on Maggi noodles samples sent by it to laboratories even as the authorities and consumers alike are waiting anxiously for the results.
City Mayor Sovan Chatterjee said the reports of tests had been sent to the state secretariat and the government would take a final call.
"We have already sent the reports of tests to Nabanna (state secretariat). The state government will take a call after going through the report and then only we will be able to take a decision in this regard," city Mayor today said.
Tests were conducted on five samples collected from different places of the city, he said.
Asked what was the result of the tests, the Mayor told PTI, "I am not in a position to talk about the results of the tests."
West Bengal Consumer Affairs Minister Sadhan Pande said tests were being conducted on the samples sent by his department.
"The tests are being conducted and we are yet to receive the reports of the tests," Pande said.
