FSSAI Special Drive: Taking strict action against increasing complaints of adulteration in milk and cheese, a special inspection campaign will be conducted in all states.


Posted on 17th Dec 2025 02:43 pm by rohit kumar

The purity of milk, paneer (Indian cottage cheese), and khoya (reduced milk solids) reaching consumers across the country will now be under strict scrutiny. Taking serious note of the increasing complaints of adulterated dairy products, the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) has issued orders to all states to conduct special inspection drives. It has been made clear that no compromise on consumer health will be tolerated.

 

 

According to the FSSAI, in recent months, several states have reported cases of adulteration and mislabeling of milk, paneer, and khoya. Such products pose a direct threat to the health of the general public. The authority stated that selling analog or adulterated products as pure milk or paneer is a legal offense, and strict action will be taken against the culprits.

Strict Inspection from Production to Sale

Under the special campaign, state food safety departments and FSSAI regional offices will inspect every stage of the milk and dairy product supply chain. This will include production units, storage facilities, and sales outlets. Both licensed businesses and unlicensed units will be inspected. Food safety officers will collect samples according to the prescribed procedure and send them for laboratory testing.

 

 

Verification of Licenses and Registrations

During the inspection, it will also be verified whether the concerned business has a valid license and registration. Units found with incomplete or fake documents will face immediate action. The FSSAI has clarified that producing and selling milk, paneer, or khoya without a license is a serious offense.

 

 

Investigation to Reach the Source of Adulteration

Where samples fail to meet standards or suspicious patterns emerge, traceability investigations will be conducted. The objective is to identify the source of adulteration, illegal units, and the entire supply chain. Upon finding guilt, unsafe food products will be seized, licenses will be suspended or revoked, and illegal units will be shut down. If necessary, adulterated products will be recalled from the market and destroyed.

 

 

The FSSAI believes that this campaign will play a crucial role in strengthening consumer confidence and ensuring the availability of pure dairy products in the market. The authority has urged states to conduct the campaign strictly and not succumb to any pressure. The message is clear: there is no place in this country for those who adulterate food.
