The Telangana Standards Authority for Food and Essential Drugs (TG SAFE) suspended licences of four Sahil Foods manufacturing units in Hyderabad after inspections found multiple food safety and hygiene violations. Authorities seized 55 tonnes of mislabelled products worth Rs 33.94 lakh and noted issues including unlicensed food categories, unhygienic machinery, inadequate ventilation, improper storage, and lack of production records. Food handlers were also found chewing gutka. Samples were collected for laboratory analysis amid concerns of adulteration.
