New Delhi: The Centre and Delhi government are both expected to file replies on the adulterated milk incidents in the Delhi High Court. The court had taken cognisance of reports that revealed that nearly 70 per cent of milk samples in the country are found to be contaminated with water, detergent and even urea.
The first mass survey of quality of milk supplied to consumers across the country by the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India has led to shocking discoveries with as many as 69 per cent of the samples failing the test of purity.
At least 14 per cent of milk samples were found to contain traces of detergents. However, these non-conforming milk samples were confined to states of Bihar, Jharkhand, Orissa and West Bengal only.
