“The video pertains to a raid conducted by the Tata Salt team along with the Punjab Police against counterfeit salt operations, just last week in Dera Bassi. This raid was covered by various media outlets, one of which you can see in the image,” <\/em>reads<\/a> a statement issued by Tata Salt on October 15, 2019. The company said that the raid discovered salt being packed in fake pouches resembling Tata Salt packaging.<\/p>\n

On October 10, the police conducted a raid in an industrial unit which was packing and selling counterfeit grocery, cosmetics and other products at Sundra village in Mohali’s Dera Bassi subdivision. “The owner has been identified as Krishan Kumar of Manimajra. Around half a dozen employees, including children, have also been rounded up for questioning,”\u00a0<\/em>stated a report published by Hindustan Times<\/em><\/a> on October 11, 2019.<\/p>\n

According to the article, Mubarikpur police conducted the raid on the complaint of a Mumbai-based company which deals with complaints against counterfeit products. “When the raid was conducted, around half a dozen workers were found packing spurious salt in Tata Salt packets,”<\/em> per Hindustan Times. <\/em>The police informed that the unit was counterfeiting Aashrivaad flour, Tide and Surf detergents, Lakme Kajal, MDH spices and Harpic toilet cleaner.<\/p>\n

In conclusion, a video of the raid conducted by the police in an industrial unit where counterfeit products were packed and sold in Punjab’s Mohali was shared with the false claim that it showed a Tata Salt factory where salt was unhygienically packaged.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
