Because it’s all bollocks? Indians out in force defending this fraud today.

I’m sorry, was it normal for us in India to go to Coca Cola or Maggie and get their side of the story when people were being frightened about noodles? Usually I just look at what the testing agency says >Nearly 40% of Ayurveda products, including items from Baba Ramdev’s Patanjali, were found to be of substandard quality by Haridwar’s Ayurveda and Unani Office, a Right to Information (RTI) reply revealed. Out of the 82 samples collected between 2013 and 2016, 32 failed the quality test. Patanjali’s Divya Amla Juice and Shivlingi Beej were among the products that failed to meet the quality standards. Last month, the armed forces’ Canteen Stores Department (CSD) had suspended the sale of a batch of Patanjali’s amla juice after it ‘failed’ a quality test carried out at West Bengal Public Health Laboratory. —————- The company story will be the same “our material is safe and fine.”

  I know the cases. Amla juice controversy arose because food inspector didnt had its ingredient table for Amala juice, so he matched it with Apple Juice ingredient table. Of course, it would not pass the test and the product will be called substandard. There are various such incidences where misinformation campaign on SM created paranoia. Patanjali wanted Amala juice to be passed a ayurvedic medicine, but they insisted on having it as consumer product. But you know Amala juice are again available in cateen stores and the controversy has been resolved. Please dont fall for one sided story, it would be good to look into official response from the company. Even a judge has to listen to the story of criminal before anouncing final punishment. There are multiple food labs in country. It can be state or central govt owned. Swamy Ramdev cannot cheat all of them, all the times.

    What ingredients does juice have besides water and juice? (okay, maybe sugar). Most juice _is_ apple juice anyway because it's the cheapest thing to make and its flavor can be masked. I can't imagine the gooseberry yield is enough to meet the demand for the product. What you're saying literally isn't corroborated anywhere online on top of not making sense. The testing authority said "unfit for consumption" and the company's official position on this was that their amla juice is not a drink but a medicine and that it should be tested by a different agency...
