We imposed the ban to prevent any health problems for the consumers," Bapat said.Karnataka and Gujarat had on Monday revoked ban on manufacture and sale of Nestle India's popular instant food brand.The announcements by the two states followed clean chit given by three government-approved laboratories to Maggi noodles, which was banned by central food regulator FSSAI and various state-level watchdogs in June on quality issues.Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) had banned Maggi noodles saying it was "unsafe and hazardous" for consumption after finding lead levels beyond permissible limits, following which the company had withdrawn it from the market.Nestle India had then challenged the ban by FSSAI in the Bombay High Court.PTI
