Advertising claims must undergo deeper scrutiny, says EAC member

New Delhi, Aug 13 (UNI) Member of the Economic Advisory Council to the Prime Minister Sanjeev Sanyal today underscored the need for greater scrutiny of claims made in advertisements, pointing to the risks of unchecked or misleading promotional content.
“The issue of claims in advertisements also needs deeper scrutiny because even if there is supposedly scientific evidence supporting them, it needs to be validated externally,” he stated amidst growing concerns over advertising practices in the food sector.
Sanyal was speaking at the national stakeholder consultation on ‘Comprehensive analysis of Regulatory Framework on Food Labelling, Advertisement and Claims’ here being held with an aim to evaluate the effectiveness of existing regulations, address implementation challenges, and explore ways to align with global standards to strengthen consumer protection.
