An extensive month-long investigation by Dainik Bhaskar has uncovered a large-scale milk adulteration racket operating across the state of Rajasthan, India. The investigation revealed that toxic chemical-mixed milk has been infiltrating the supply chain, from transit points to large factories, and could potentially reach the dining tables of millions.
This operation employed a sophisticated model, using the area behind Hotel Shyam Sangam, 20 km from Kishangarh town, as its mixing center. The location was carefully hidden behind bushes and hills.
Here, tankers carrying genuine milk arrived at the mixing point. Drivers, with the help of hotel staff, used special keys to open the tanker’s seal and extracted 2,000 to 4,000 liters of pure milk. This milk was then replaced with artificial milk, mixed from urea (used in fertilizers), shampoo, detergents, and refined oil—chemicals extremely harmful to health.
The mixing process took place on-site with pickup trucks equipped with pumps and pipes. Each batch took only about 15-20 minutes. Notably, just one liter of alkaline chemicals could produce up to 500 liters of fake milk.
To bypass the GPS tracking system used by many dairy farms, drivers removed the devices from the tankers and handed them over to motorcyclists or car drivers traveling along the route. This deceived the monitoring system into believing the vehicle was still moving normally without stopping. After the mixing process, the GPS devices were reattached before the tankers reached their delivery points.
One of the tracked tankers, with the registration number GJ02 XX4769, traveled over 350 km from the mixing point to Doodh Sagar Dairy in Manesar, Haryana—just 50 km from the capital, Delhi. Despite seal checks and vehicle weighing at the factory entrance, the adulterated milk slipped through due to a sophisticated seal replacement tactic.
Health experts warn that the chemical mixture in fake milk can cause intestinal inflammation, liver damage, heart disease, miscarriage, and even cancer. Dr. Ravi Singh Shekhawat, Jaipur’s Chief Medical and Health Officer (CMHO), revealed that in the past year, 36 out of 50 tested milk and cheese samples were found to contain impurities.
In the face of the published evidence, Mr. Prateek Kumar, manager of Doodh Sagar Dairy, initially denied the possibility of fake milk entering the factory but later expressed his willingness to cooperate with the investigation upon receiving specific documents and videos.
The Rajasthan Police have arrested several tanker drivers involved in distributing adulterated milk to factories, including prominent brands like Amul. Inspector Hemraj Meena of the Jaipur Rural Police stated, “The current adulteration tactics are so sophisticated that they cannot be detected by regular milk testing equipment.”
The police also raided a chemical facility in Chithwadi, suspected of being the main supplier of raw materials for fake milk production. The investigation not only exposed the health hazard threatening the community but also revealed a significant loophole in the food quality control system. The collusion between drivers, hotel owners, and possibly dairy industry insiders made traceability almost impossible.
Local authorities are taking strict action under the food safety law, including violations related to quality (Section 51), mislabeling (Section 52), and distribution of hazardous products (Section 59).
However, experts emphasize that beyond criminal investigations and prosecutions, a comprehensive monitoring campaign, enhanced testing, and community awareness are essential to prevent this silent health disaster from spreading further.
