Hyderabad Police Seize 825 Kg of Suspected Fake Paneer in Food Safety RaidsPreviousNext

Hyderabad police seized approximately 825 kilograms of suspected fake paneer made from Cheese Analogue products containing vegetable fats and synthetic milk during raids across 45 retail outlets and eight manufacturing units. Officials found these non-dairy products were often mislabeled and sold as genuine paneer under various names without proper licensing or labeling details. The crackdown revealed violations including repackaging, misbranding, and unhygienic storage, with samples sent for laboratory analysis and further action planned under food safety laws.
