Maharashtra Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Commissioner Tukaram Mundhe on Monday said the state has intensified action against adulterated and substandard milk products, stressing that milk and dairy items fall under the country's high-risk food categories and require stricter monitoring to protect public health.
Speaking on concerns over adulteration in milk products and food safety, Mundhe said milk, meat and fish products are among the food categories that carry higher public health risks and therefore demand greater regulatory oversight.
