Abstract: ‘We, The Human’, a public Charitable Trust Channi Himmat Jammu on Thursday expressed deep concern over day by day increasing use of poisonous toxic chemicals in food, milk and milk products by few greedy elements, especially, during on-going festive season. Trust’s vice -chairman and retired principal secretary Law K Y S Manhas while addressing the press conference here at Press Club said, “ The poor implementation of the Prevention of Food Adulteration Act, 1954 and the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006 that created the food regulator, the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI), coupled with law enforcers (food inspectors) and deficiencies in the testing laboratories, lead to persistence of menace of food adulteration. ”
