The core of the legal complaint details several severe and widely disseminated claims made by Dr. Jani in the video. Specifically, the former principal alleged that 22 types of chemicals were being mixed into the milk, that DDT-like pesticides were being added, and, critically, that the milk being sold was seven days old. These allegations directly attack the freshness, safety, and integrity of Amul’s processing and supply chain, which is key to consumer trust.

The misinformation campaign extended beyond product safety to include accusations of fraudulent business practices and regulatory failure. The FIR alleged that Jani claimed Amul pouches contained less than 500ml, directly accusing the company of cheating consumers for profit. Furthermore, Jani allegedly stated that products certified by major Indian food safety standards (ISI and FSSAI) were unsafe, claiming that officials were taking no corrective action against the perceived system failures.

In his video, Jani also ventured into political commentary, alleging that the entire food system was “foreign-controlled” and stating he would “have to become an MLA to change the law.” This context is notable, as the article mentions Jani is a past state secretary of the BJP. The complainant argued that Jani’s statements, particularly given his professional status as a doctor, were designed to create fear and distrust among the public, with the clear intent of defaming the Amul brand and severely damaging the reputation of the cooperative federation.
