The Food Safety Department of Jammu and Kashmir has uncovered a racket involved in the manufacturing and sale of adulterated honey and desi ghee in Srinagar. According to sources, departmental teams carried out raids in the Barthana and Qamarwari areas, where they detected an illegal unit producing counterfeit food items.
During the operation, officials seized a large quantity of hydrogenated oil that was allegedly being mixed and sold as desi ghee at roadside outlets. The department said the adulterated products posed a serious risk to public health. Further investigation is underway, and strict action is expected against those involved in the illegal activity.
