Two days ago, the Health Department had checked the seller of mango juice in Raiya Road and Malviya area of Rajkot. On investigation, it was found that essence and color were mixed in the mango juice. Health department officials destroyed a total of 370 kg of mango juice, which is harmful to health, including 160 kg from Kankai store selling mango juice and 210 kg from Raj store.
Mango juice sellers are seriously playing with people’s health in the pursuit of profits. Because at present the price of mangoes in the market is Rs 1100 to 1200 per 10 kg. But mango juice is available in the market for 120 to 140 rupees. At such a time, the Health Department of Rajkot Municipality raided the mango juice producers and took action against them.
