After Maggi controversy broke out, almost 1,000 workers lost their jobs in the state. Maggi was banned in Uttarakhand last month when samples of the popular food product failed laboratory tests.
"A decision to ban the sale of Maggi was taken in public interest by the Food Security Department as 2 of a 300 odd samples of the food product failed laboratory tests," Principal Secretary Health Om Prakash said.
The decision was prompted by the presence of monosodium glutamate (MSG) in the samples sent for laboratory tests to Rudrapur in Udhamsingh Nagar district, he said.
