Cancelled in India's food imports from Japan

The Indian government ordered a halt for at least the next three months the import of food from Japan for the expansion of activity in the country after the nuclear disaster caused by the earthquake. In a statement, the Indian Ministry of Health explained that it has decided to suspend imports of food products from Japan for "a period of three months or until there is credible information available that the radiation risk has been reduced to acceptable limits." According to the note, the food quality regulatory authorities of the South Asian country conducted reviews of the situation on a weekly basis.

In mid-March, the Indian government had already ordered to examine the level of radiation of all foods from Japan.
