Central Food Technological Research Institute in MP

The manifesto promised establishment of a Central Food Technological Research Institute in Madhya Pradesh in partnership with the central government. CSIR-CFTRI is an existing central institute, and its official website identifies it as CSIR-Central Food Technological Research Institute. The approved sources found in this pass did not show a Madhya Pradesh campus, satellite centre, sanctioned institute or construction project. A food or drug testing lab in Madhya Pradesh would not be equivalent to a CSIR-CFTRI campus unless officially mapped as such. The verdict is pending because no MP-specific CFTRI establishment evidence was found. Budget: no allocation or utilisation evidence for a CFTRI Madhya Pradesh campus was found.
