The Delhi High Court has taken a strong stance against the use of spurious Oxytocin hormone in dairy colonies, citing animal cruelty and public health concerns. The court has directed the Department of Drugs Control and Delhi Police to conduct regular inspections, register cases, and take legal action against offenders. The bench also emphasized the need to relocate dairies to areas with adequate infrastructure and sanitary conditions, particularly those near landfill sites, to prevent health hazards. The move aims to ensure the welfare of animals and protect public health.
