Advocacy

In March 2020, NRAI asked 5 lakh restaurants to shut down during the COVID-19 pandemic in India.[5] To help Indian restaurants and their staff, NRAI urged people to support their favourite restaurants.[6][7]

In May 2020, NRAI launched an app to protect Indian restaurants and the food industry.[8] Later, NRAI supported homeless people by feeding them meals.[9][10]

Controversy

In 2014, NRAI filed and won the hookah case in Supreme Court and restriction imposed on smoking of Hookah with tobacco content was upheld.[2]

NRAI and Zomato clashed due to its Gold Membership in the food delivery business also. Due to this, NRAI advised restaurants and cloud kitchens to not fall for gimmicks and offer quality food at the right price. NRAI is against it because the cost of this will solely be borne by the restaurant.[4]
