Delhi authorities raided two unlicensed cosmetic factories, confiscating finished products and production equipment.
On Tuesday, Delhi police conducted a coordinated raid on two unlicensed cosmetic manufacturing units located in the city’s industrial area. The operation was carried out after receiving intelligence about the production of unregistered products.
During the raid, authorities seized a stockpile of finished cosmetic items, including creams, lotions and powders, as well as the machinery used for production. The seized goods are slated for further inspection under the Drugs and Cosmetics Act.
The two factories were found to be operating without the requisite licenses from the Central Drugs Standard Control Organization. The lack of proper registration raises concerns about product safety and consumer protection.
Delhi’s Department of Food, Drugs and Cosmetics has announced that it will initiate legal proceedings against the owners and will conduct a thorough audit of the seized equipment. The authorities have urged consumers to report any suspicious cosmetic products.
