In a major crackdown on food safety violations, an illegal sauce manufacturing unit was raided in Kamre, Ranchi on Tuesday. The raid was conducted under the leadership of the Food Safety Officer and in coordination with officials from the Ratu police station. During the inspection, authorities discovered that the factory was operating without a valid license. A total of 4,020 liters of sauce and 960 liters of vinegar were seized from the premises. The samples of both products have been sent to a laboratory for further testing. The operation was carried out under the guidance of the Sadar Sub-Divisional Officer (SDO) and the Deputy Food Safety Commissioner of Jharkhand. Officials reported that once the test results are received, strict action will be taken against the factory owner under the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006. In addition to the licensing violations, the factory was found to be operating under unhygienic conditions. Authorities confirmed that separate legal action will be initiated for the poor sanitation standards observed at the facility. This raid is part of an ongoing statewide effort to ensure food safety and crack down on unlicensed and hazardous food manufacturing units across Jharkhand Show more Show less
