The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) has formally notified the operator of the Radisson Blu hotel in Delhi regarding significant hygiene and maintenance lapses discovered during a recent inspection. The regulatory body identified several areas of concern that failed to meet established food safety standards.

According to the FSSAI report, the facility exhibited poor maintenance of both its premises and kitchen equipment. Specific findings included the presence of rusted machinery and leaking freezers, which pose risks to food storage integrity. Furthermore, the inspection highlighted systemic deficiencies in the hotel's infrastructure, specifically noting inadequate refrigeration systems, improper temperature monitoring, and insufficient ventilation. The report also pointed to substandard flooring and lighting conditions within the food preparation areas, which the regulator deemed non-compliant with health safety protocols.

This notice serves as a formal warning to the hotel management, requiring them to address these maintenance and hygiene failures to ensure the safety of food served on the premises. As of this report, the hotel operator has not issued a public statement regarding the specific steps they intend to take to rectify these violations or the timeline for compliance with the FSSAI’s requirements.
