In a significant move, the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) on Thursday officially withdrew its order to use the Hindi term dahi on curd (yogurt) packets in Tamil Nadu. The FSSAI's move to revise the guidelines comes on the back of a massive backlash against the order. Earlier, state chief minister MK Stalin also came down heavily on FSSAI for allegedly attempting to impose Hindi on non-Hindi speakers.
