| A press release issued by Coca Cola India claims that
the State Central Public Health Lab, Rajasthan, Jaipur, has cleared
the soft drink samples of Coke under the Prevention of Food Adulteration
Act, 1954. The cola company claims that the tests were conducted by
the public analyst, Rajasthan; and the results were submitted to the
High Court of Rajasthan by the State Central Public Health Lab, Rajasthan,
Jaipur, as part of the Public Interest Litigation filed against cola
drinks.
A statement issued by Coca-Cola India welcomes the speedy investigation
by the State Central Public Health Lab, Rajasthan, and Jaipur, into
the quality of soft drinks. "These independent results reconfirm
the quality of the products manufactured in our plants and, we believe,
will help to restore consumer confidence," the statement says.
The statement also adds that the company believes that a consistent,
professional testing protocol is necessary to serve the interests
of both the consumers and the beverage manufacturers. The statement
says that the company will continue to work with government agencies
for resolving this issue.
