CHISHTIAN, Apr 20 (APP):Acting under the supervision of the Deputy Director Operations, a Punjab Food Authority’s (PFA) team on Monday seized adulterated milk 600 litres and unsafe khoya 50 kilograms during a raid in Tehsil, Fort Abbas.
According to officials, the team confiscated a large quantity of the products and shut down the production unit until further improvements were made, the official sources said.
