CBSE has just made Sugar Board compulsory in every school!
From July 15th, every CBSE school must display a Sugar Board revealing the shocking sugar content in soft drinks. Every CBSE Principal has to send the government photos of the sugarboard in their school!
Over 2 crore students study in CBSE schools, and this is India’s biggest step towards fighting against childhood obesity and diabetes.
