40 kg suspicious ghee seized from two general stores in Morbi

An intensive checking campaign has been launched by the administration in Morbi city to ensure the health of citizens and maintain the quality of food items. According to a report by Sandesh, as part of this campaign, teams from the Morbi SOG (Special Operations Group) and the Food Department jointly conducted inspections at various traders' shops in the city.

During this action, a large quantity of ghee suspected to be adulterated was found in two different general stores, causing a stir among the authorities. Officials seized 15 kg of suspicious ghee from a shop named Abid H. Andani General Store and 25 kg from a shop named Payal Singh Center. Thus, a total quantity of 40 kg of suspicious ghee was seized from both shops combined.

The Food Department team has taken samples of the seized ghee to check its purity and quality. These samples have been sent to a government laboratory for further testing. It will be clear whether low-quality adulteration has been done in the ghee after the laboratory reports arrive. Legal action will be taken against the concerned traders based on the report.
