विश्व खाद्य सुरक्षा दिवस के अवसर पर
हमारी थाली में भोजन देने वाले
अन्नदाता किसानों को नमन!

स्वस्थ रहने के लिए आवश्यक है कि,
हमारा भोजन शुद्ध हो
बिना मिलावट का हो
पौष्टिक हो।

इसके लिये हर किसी को मिलकर प्रयास करने होंगे- भोजन उत्पादक, उपभोक्ता और सरकार सभी का साझा दायित्व है!

भारत में हर प्रदेश के अनुसार,
वहाँ की जरूरत और जलवायु के अनुसार
भोजन की समृद्ध परम्परा रही है।

जरूरी है कि हम
अपने पारंपरिक भोजन और
व्यजनों को जीवन में अपनाएं,

फास्ट फूड और
जंक फूड का त्याग करें,

इससे पौष्टिक आहार मिलेगा और प्रतिरोधक क्षमता बढ़ेगी। #WorldFoodSafetyDay

कोरोना महामारी के दौरान गरीब-जरूरतमंद लोगों को पर्याप्त और शुद्ध भोजन उपलब्ध कराना भी समाज का साझा दायित्व है। #WorldFoodSafetyDay

On this World Food Safety Day,

I call upon all stakeholders –

Producers,

Vendors,

Consumers &

Governments

to ensure that the food we consume is safe, healthy and nutritious.

There is also a need to create greater awareness on food-borne diseases. #WorldFoodSafetyDay

In India, we have a range of traditional foods, prescribed according to our needs and climatic conditions.

In these times of COVID-19 pandemic, it is all the more important for people to eat healthy food, boost their immunity & stay healthy. #WorldFoodSafetyDay

I particularly urge the youth

to avoid junk food

and stay healthy.
