In one of India’s worst food safety disasters in recent memory, the death toll from a milk adulteration case in Andhra Pradesh has risen to 16. Laboratory findings confirmed that all victims died of multi-organ failure triggered by acute renal failure after consuming milk contaminated with a toxic substance. Police have taken a suspected milk vendor into custody, and forensic teams examined the premises for evidence. The case has reignited demands for stricter food safety enforcement across the country.
