# India ghee safety enforcement > Live situation record from CLSTR: https://clstr.news/situations/india-ghee-safety-enforcement > Updated: 2026-08-01T20:10:15.000Z. Sources: 6. Developments: 2. In late July 2026, Madhya Pradesh food‑safety officials in Indore seized about 640 litres of suspected substandard ghee and collected numerous food samples as part of a state‑wide campaign against adulterated products. The seizure was described as a precaution pending laboratory analysis, and authorities warned of legal action under the Food Safety and Standards Act. A week later, the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation halted the sale of roughly 1,770 kg of ghee after a laboratory test found the product below standards. Inspectors traced the supply chain, seized over a tonne of the ghee, and notified state food‑safety officers. The corporation announced intensified inspections of food‑business establishments and pledged strict enforcement of food‑safety regulations. Together, these actions illustrate a coordinated effort by Indian regional authorities to crack down on adulterated or substandard ghee, expanding from isolated seizures to broader market suspensions and heightened regulatory scrutiny. ## Timeline ### 2026-08-01: Ahmedabad corporation halts sale of 1,700 kg of ghee after safety test Ahmedabad municipal corporation halted sale of about 1,770 kg of ghee worth Rs 11.43 lakh after a lab deemed it substandard, and announced wider food‑safety inspections. 3 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/ahmedabad-corporation-halts-sale-of-1700-kg-of-ghee-after-safety-test ### 2026-07-24: Indore Food Safety Drive Seizes 640 Litres Suspected Ghee Indore’s food safety team seized 640 L of suspected ghee worth ₹3 lakh, collected 21 samples, and ordered lab testing, warning of legal action under the Food Safety Act. 5 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/indore-food-safety-drive-seizes-640-litres-of-suspect-ghee-cracks-down-on-illegal-dairies --- Cite as: India ghee safety enforcement.
