SIKKIM MILK MANAGEMENT ACTS ON COMPLAINTS , STRENGTHENS QUALITY CONTROL


Letter:
The management of Sikkim Milk Union has taken the news report on the quality of packaged milk processed at Sikkim Milk’s Dairy Plant in Jorethang seriously and even discussed the issue at a board meeting held today. The dairy plant is implementing all necessary steps to ensure that the milk is safe and of acceptable quality. Jorethang receives milk from various village milk co-operatives, the quality of the milk is tested at the village level and is collected and transported to the dairy plant. In the dairy plant, technicians test the milk for its quality and accept the milk. After the news report, the milk reception quality control has been asked to be more careful and directed not to accept milk with even a small amount of smell and variation in quality for processing.  All the field supervisors are directed to monitor their routes for procurement of quality milk. The laboratory in the plant tests with the help of NDDB testing kits for all possible parameters including various adulterants. Milk is now despatched to the market only after proper testing and printing date of packaging on the pouches will be printed within two day’s time. As such the milk dispatched by the Jorethang dairy plant will not have any quality complaints as necessary quality control has been strengthened in order to further ensure the same.
