The product is still being sold on major e-commerce sites in India, along with the misleading FSSAI logo.
WhatsApp messages about cow urine now being bottled and sold in India have been doing the rounds for some time. Recently, the Press Information Bureau of India (PIB) put out a tweet that the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) has not issued a license for the product.
FSSAI is an autonomous body under the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India, that is responsible for regulating the manufacture, storage, distribution, sale, and import of food products in India. The FSSAI mark indicates that the product meets food safety standards.
Despite the PIB’s statement, Cowwal’s Cow Urine is still being sold on major e-commerce sites like Amazon India and Meesho, along with the misleading FSSAI logo. Such illegal and unethical practices by sellers put public health and safety at risk.
