Cases under the Weights and Measurements Act have
been registered against well-known sweet and snack maker
Haldiram and Surya Foods, the manufacturer of Priya
Gold biscuits, for violating product packaging norms.
Inspectors from the de partment of legal metrology
raided godowns belonging to the distributors of two
companies earlier this month, after detecting a fault
in their product packaging. They also seized Haldiram
products which were meant for export, but were being
sold locally. "This is in violation of the Standards
of Weights and Measures Act, 1976," said an inspector.
In India, the standard unit of weight measurement is
kgs/grams.
