Claim: Video showing the process of milk adulteration.
Fact-check: The white liquid seen in this video is Phenyl emulsifier/cutting oil, not adulterated milk - FACTLY
Verdict: the video shows mixing of turkey red oil/ mineral oil with water to get a white solution called phenyl emulsifier/cutting oil. phenyl emulsifier is used in making white phenyls, whereas cutting oil is used as lubricant and coolant for machines. there are no reports to suggest that these fluids are used in milk adulteration in india. according to fssai, most common substances found in adulterated milk are water, antibiotics, pesticides, aflatoxin m1 etc. hence the claim made in the post is false.
