Dear Friend,
I don't think you pay up Rs 10 per 300ml of drinking water supplied to you. Why to pay these MNCs the money if they can't provide us with material worth the money. So friend, stop blaming the system, instead, fight against the faults of the system.
This is absolutely wierd. Yes we knew that these brands had some ingredients in them which can be harmful, but this report is totally a shocker !! These companies now has to justify to the public & media .
Government of India should ban sale of all the soft drinks and mineral water brands which are found to contain potentially harmful pesticides, and safeguard precious lives of Indian citizens. These multinational companies should not be allowed to earn money killing Indian people.
I personally take a oath not to consume any soft drinks listed in the above list, and would request every Indian to do so.
We should start "Quit India Movement" afresh now to safeguard our future generations.
Let this be an awakening call to all the addicted persons to the foreign cola products. It is high time the government steps in with stringent measures.
hello, The test is a real eye opener.i would like the govt to really ban these drinks as our products are also similarly banned by the european union. this can cause major diseases. as mentioned in the report.thsi first target would be kids as they relish on all these soft drinks almost daily
This is the time that the government should take firm action against these type of companies which are causing health hazard. I beleive most you will agree with me that most of the consumers of carbonated drinks are kids & teens. They are indirectly distroying our future generations. I request all the personel involve health sector and social services organisations to make sure that no consumers products should be health hazardous. Else these companies (causiing health problems)should face legal as well as financial concequences.
Human Body itself is the combination of Chemicals only, as per the scientists. "Too much of anything is good for Nothing" is the proverb. Likethat,scientists should declare, what is the %ge of harmful substance,what can be limiting Quantum, that is safer etc, instead of simply declaring the %ges.
