Which of the following is NOT a function of Bureau of Indian Standards?

Correct option is A

The correct answer is (a) Formulating the controlling procedures to ensure safety in the food industry.
· The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) is the national standards body of India, responsible for the formulation, recognition, and promotion of Indian standards.
· BIS provides product certification for Indian and foreign manufacturers, ensuring that products meet certain quality and safety standards.
· BIS also offers management system certification, including certifications for quality management systems, environmental management systems, and more.
· However, the formulation of controlling procedures to ensure safety in the food industry is primarily the function of the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI), not BIS.
