Ethylene for Ripening
FSSAI in its August 2016 gazette notice made clear “Provided that fruits may be artificially ripened by use of Ethylene gas at a concentration upto 100 ppm (100µl/L) depending upon the crop, variety and maturity”.
Ethylene becomes toxic if amount used is >33% and must be used under controlled temperature and humidity levels.
Question is - why is FSSAI even approving any of ethylene use?
Learn about Ethylene below:
ABOUT ETHYLENE
The ethylene is in the form of a starchy powder, which slowly releases ethylene gas that causes mangoes and other fruits to ripen. While the actual process required five to six days for repining of fruits, “with the use of calcium carbide, it takes a few hours to ripen these”.
Dangerous Effects of Ethylene
These sachets expose visitors to emissions of the hazardous chemical.
Experts say ethylene is an equally potent carcinogenic as calcium carbide.
Fruits ripened using ethylene powder can trigger gastritis, ulcer and cancer.
The packets are also dangerous to cows and other animals at the market that survive on vegetable waste. more

IF THE VICTIM IS FROM DIFFERENT STATE , IT SHOULD GO TO CENTRE GOVT. more

There are abundant stories about the collusion of the then ministers of India with the CEO and owners of Union Carbide which caused gas tragedy in Bhopal. Who knows about the persons presently heading FSSAI which is acting like the proverbial, "fence eating the crops" and giving legal sanction to the use of a dangerous chemical and paving way for a similar tragedy and guarantee of a legal free passage for the perpetrators? Any one knowing more welcome to enlighten us. more
