The fears about synthetic milk

A peculiar type of uneasiness pervades the people these days pertaining to the matter of synthetic/artificial milk. This milk has headed its journey from cities to villages now. On one side, India is considered to the largest milk producing country while on the other side, it is becoming notoriously famous to have become the first ever country to produce synthetic/artificial milk.


The massive production of synthetic milk

According to one estimated report, every day, production and sale of approximately 1.10 crores litres of milk of synthesised milk is taking place in the different states of our country. Enough news have been pouring about its production and sale in a massive scale from the western Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Delhi and in Gwalior and also from the Chambal region of Madhya Pradesh. From one study of an Ahmadabad based Consumer education and research society it has been found that different types of harmful bacteria have been found from 31 popular milk brands in the different parts of the country which cause serious damaging consequences. It is a fait accompli now that mixing of deadly chemicals has become the order of the day in so far so as that even the government controlled is not untouched from this unprofessional conduct. 
India is NO.1. milk producing country

According to Indian Medical Research Council, consumption of 250 grams of milk and milk products has been considered to be healthy. After independence, in India, since the 1970, after the significant success in its different stages of the "white revolution operation flood" by the IDDB (Indian Dairy Development Corporation), there have been phenomenal increases in the production of milk and its various products. 
Whereas, the milk production in the country in 1950-51 was 1.80 crore tonnes, it is estimated to have increased in 2010-11 to 10 times since catapulting India in the No1 position amongst the field of milk production leaving past America far behind in the race. We have become self dependent in the milk producing area. 
But unfortunately, despite becoming self dependent and the massive increase in the production of milk, illicit production of the synthetic milk has emerged as the biggest problem to the milk producing industry. As a result of which, the confidence of the general consumers is waning from the dairy industry. People are now reluctant to consume the dairies products. It is of paramount importance to soon find the the solutions to this raging problem, since the dairy industry occupies an important place in the Indian rural economy and attached with the industry are crores of milk producing farmers including the consumers as well. 
What is synthetic milk

From the natural milk received from cows and buffaloes, cream, butter and fat are separated from the cream separator machine. To make this milk (left over milk after so sparated from all its nutrients) again creamy and foggy, urea, detergent, caustic soda, starch oil, , glucose, shampoo, white paint, hydrogen peroxide etc are mixed to prepare synthetic milk. Using this milk is highly poisonous. Even skimmed milk powder is not spared which also is mixed with all the above injurious materials. Chalk and calcium soil is used to increase the quantity of milk.
Harms caused by the use of synthetic milk

According to physicians, use of synthetics milk inflicts very serious harms on human body causing swelling in the eyes and complications in lever and kidney. Apart from this, synthetic milk proves deadly for pregnant women and patients suffering from conditions of heart ailment and high blood pressure. What is worse is that this synthetic milk is extremely poisonous for small children. Continuous use of the synthetic milk turns the human body a farm house of diseases.



Solutions to the problems of synthetic milk

In the development of a healthy and healthy nation, people living there have a very prominent role to play. It becomes imperative on the part of the people of a nation to remain healthy, alert and duty bound. Therefore to safeguard from the ill effects of synthetic milk, the following noted suggestions must be taken into consideration:-
  • The entire populace of the country should be made aware of the simple testing procedures of the synthetic milk through publicity and media including TV, Radio, Print, pamphlets, hoardings and holding the camps of consumer awareness program.
  • In cities and metros, only packaging milk should be encouraged and open selling milk should be completely banned by government notifications. Apart from this there should be a surprise checking by the officials of state food and civil supply department and the Dairy officials. 
  • The food adulteration control Act has remained totally ineffective in checking the massive production of the synthetic milk. In the interest of the people and the nation and above all for the sake of humanity, severest possible punishment should be provided for by enacting laws for those who are playing with the lives of the human beings 
  • A committee under the presidency of local administrative official should be established at gram, tehsil and district levels to control the production of synthetic milk by keeping a strict vigil over the local government and private dairies local milk sellers and all the distributing terminals. 
  • At the village level, Gram Panchayats/ Janpad panchayats/ Zilla panchayats (Jan- Bhagidari Samiti), a general awareness program should be frequently held which will deliberate upon complaints received against synthetic milk. Domestic women should be trained to test synthetic milk by government agencies or NGOS.
  • Conclusion

  • Synthetic milk is a sweet poison which though does not kill at once but it slowly makes the body a fertile ground for diseases. As a result of white revolution, new machinery with new techniques have been made available but alas these machinery have been used to play with the lives of the humans in place of making its good uses. This happens because of the gap in demand and supply of milk. It is expected from the administration to have the production of synthetic milk checked under full control to avoid the loss of human life.
