India has proposed banning the sale of junk food in school canteens and within 50 meters of school premises, a move aimed at curbing rising obesity and diabetes rates among children. The measure would restrict children's access to unhealthy snacks and drinks during the school day. The proposal comes as health officials warn that poor diets are driving childhood health problems, and it has drawn attention to how schools regulate food sold to students.
