Noida: Food Safety and Drug Administration (FSDA) department has collected seven milk samples from various sectors across Noida and Greater Noida to check for adulteration.
According to officials, the initiative is part of a broader effort to safeguard public health during a period when milk-based consumption peaks.
“Three samples of mixed milk were collected from three shops in Greater Noida for testing.
Additionally, samples of cow and buffalo milk from Serlac India Private Limited Ecotech 3, a sample of cow milk from Alpha 2, and a sample of mixed milk from Deep Kamdhenu Milk Dairy Alpha 2 were taken for testing by food safety officials,” said Sarvesh Mishra, assistant commissioner of FSDA.
The food samples have been sent to the laboratory for analysis according to the provisions of the Food Safety and Standards Act of 2006 and related rules and regulations. If any adulteration is found, appropriate actions will be taken against the vendors if necessary, said an official. According to the health department, grocery items and milk products form major chunk of food items that fail quality tests.
