The teams collected 135 samples, including of desi ghee, curd, paneer, butter, khoya, lassi, burfi and cream, from various food business operators and forwarded them to the State Food Safety Laboratory in Kharar for analysis. Food and drug administration commissioner and Tandrust Punjab Mission director K S Pannu said the Punjab government was taking the matter of food adulteration seriously and conducting regular inspections. He said that besides regular inspection of milk and milk products, special campaigns regarding other food items, like fruits, are also being carried out.
