Food Safety Authorities Crack Down on Adulterated Dairy Products Ahead of Festivals
Food safety authorities in Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, and Noida have intensified inspections and crackdowns on adulterated and unsafe dairy products ahead of the festive season. In Uttar Pradesh's Kanpur Dehat and Kanpur Nagar, adulterants like detergents and hydrogen peroxide were found in khoya, leading to sample collection, destruction of products, and FIRs. In Jaipur and Noida, around 600 kg of paneer was destroyed due to unhygienic storage, with additional samples of khoya, ghee, and curd sent for testing. Further actions depend on laboratory results.
