Edelweiss Mutual Funds CEO Radhika Gupta, who is usually known to be vocal about her opinions, has suggested a practical solution to deal with the growing problem of obesity in India.

Taking to social media platform X, she urged restaurants to start offering ‘half-plate’ options on their menu. According to her, this step can help people eat in moderation, reduce food wastage, and even boost restaurant revenues.

"I am glad we are talking about obesity as a problem so widely. It is critical," Gupta wrote. She said it’s good to see that obesity is finally being discussed seriously in the country.
