Telangana Bans Manufacture and Sale of Analogue Paneer for One Year
· India · NewsMeter
The Telangana government has imposed a one-year ban on the production and sale of 'analogue paneer' across the state. Analogue paneer is a synthetic dairy product typically created by blending vegetable fats, milk solids, and other additives to mimic the texture and appearance of traditional paneer. State authorities implemented the measure to ensure food safety and prevent the misrepresentation of dairy products in the market. The ban aims to protect consumers from consuming non-dairy alternatives marketed as natural paneer. The order is effective immediately and will remain in force for a period of 12 months.
Why it matters
The ban directly impacts dairy manufacturers and food retailers in Telangana, forcing them to stop the distribution of synthetic paneer alternatives to ensure compliance with state food safety standards.
