GS4 · UPSC Mains
You have recently started working for an international soft drink company as its quality control officer. The company sells its signature soft drink under the same brand name all over the world. The soft drink is very popular in India and generates substantial revenue for the company. While the drink is in compliance with the Indian regulatory criteria, you recently discovered during your inspection that the drink is less healthy compared to those sold in developed markets. This is due to a cheaper water filtration system used for Indian markets. On bringing the issue in notice to your immediate manager, he simply ignored the matter saying that the company is following all the laws. On further enquiry, you found out that the other employees in the company are silent on the issue due to fear of losing their job. You also found out that your predecessor raised the same concern and was fired from his job. Evaluating all the options available with you, what would you do in this situation and why?
