India’s food regulator issued a notice to JW Marriott hotel in New Delhi’s Aerocity over serious safety and license violations, continuing a crackdown across the country. The hotel, operated by Aria Hotels and Consultancy Services Pvt., was carrying out retail activities without the required license endorsement, the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India, or FSSAI, said in an Instagram post Wednesday.

The notice highlights ongoing efforts by the regulator to enforce compliance in the hospitality sector. The specific details of the violations were not fully disclosed, but the lack of proper licensing for retail operations was a key concern raised by the FSSAI.

This action is part of a broader initiative to ensure food safety standards are met across India, with the regulator targeting establishments that fail to adhere to guidelines. The JW Marriott, a prominent hotel in the Aerocity area, now faces potential penalties or corrective actions.

The FSSAI’s move underscores the importance of regulatory compliance for businesses in the food and hospitality industry, as authorities intensify scrutiny to protect consumer health and safety.
