ADULTERATION OF GHEE Dr. Kailas Nath Katju1 writes :2I have read with great interest in Harijan of 20th January your note3 onadulteration of ghee. . . . The misfortune is that it is not only the ghee-dealerand the middleman who have taken to adulteration, but even the ghee producersin the villages are resorting to adulteration in their own homes before theybring ghee to the market. . . .We had drafted and introduced in the U.P. Legislature a comprehensivebill to stop this mischief. It was at the committee stage when we resigned.The bill confers power on the Provincial Government to prescribe colouringor flavouring of artificial ghee or vegetable oils. But I think the more usefuland really important provision in the bill for the purpose in hand is that whicharms the Provincial Government with the power to prohibit sale of artificial orvegetable ghee in ghee-producing areas. . . . We thought that in such areaswhere vegetable ghee is really sold for these universal purposes the onlyproper method is to prohibit its sale altogether, and thus protect and foster thegenuine ghee industry. . . .The suggestion made by Dr. Katju about specially dealing withghee-producing areas is worthy of consideration. Indeed the questionof adulteration of this important article of national diet is so importantthat it requires all-India treatment. It need not wait for disposal of theso-called higher politics.ON THE WAY TO DELHI, February [4]4, 1940Harijan, 17-2-19401 Ex-Minister of Justice, Development, Agriculture and Veterinary in U.P.2 Only extracts are reproduced here.3 Vide “Adulteration of Ghee”, 8-1-1940.4 The source has “February 5” evidently a slip.
