CM flying squad seizes 8.5 quintals of adulterated mawa in Hisar
1 2 Hisar: The chief minister's flying squad on Sunday morning raided two houses in Dhani Shyam Lal, exposing an illegal operation of producing adulterated mawa (khoya). The team recovered 8.5 quintals of contaminated mawa stored in unhygienic conditions. The adulterated product, purchased from Rajasthan at Rs 130 per kg, was being sold in Hisar for Rs 180 per kg. During the raid, officials apprehended Mahavir Singh, a resident of Kawalsar village in Rajasthan's Churu district. In his presence, 675 kg of mawa was seized, much of it stored in dirty, foul-smelling water inside freezers. Mahavir admitted that the mawa was fake and regularly supplied to prominent sweet shops in Hisar, including all outlets of Bikaner Sweets, as well as shops in Barwala and Uklana. Investigators revealed that around Rakshabandhan and Teej, approximately 35 quintals of such adulterated mawa were supplied from this facility. While market rates for genuine mawa stood at Rs 500 per kg, the adulterated version was sold to shops for just Rs 150 per kg. The CM's flying squad, led by Hisar Range in-charge Sunaina, along with food safety officer Dr Pawan Chahal, ASI Surendra, HC Vijay, SI Krishna Kumar, HC Surendra, Anoop, and Manoj, collected six samples for laboratory testing.
