Why is Maggie banned in India?

Maggie noodles were banned in India in 2015 due to concerns over food safety and health regulations. Tests conducted by the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) revealed that some samples contained excessive levels of lead and monosodium glutamate (MSG), which raised alarm about their potential health risks. The ban led to a temporary withdrawal of the product from the market, although it was later lifted after Nestlé, the manufacturer, addressed the concerns and complied with safety standards.
