Sabudana Adulteration Threatens Navratri Celebrations: Verify Authenticity for a Safe Fast

Adulteration in Sabudana: The auspicious occasion of Navratri has started from 19th March. During these 9 days, devotees keep a fast and worship Maa Durga. During this time, people eat sattvik and light food, in which sabudana becomes an important part. Sabudana Khichdi, Vada or Kheer, all these are the most liked dishes during the fast. But have you ever thought that the sabudana you are eating is real or fake? Nowadays, the danger of adulteration in the market is increasing rapidly and food items are also not untouched. Especially during festivals, when there is a lot of demand, some people start selling substandard or fake sabudana to earn profit. This fake sabudana not only spoils the taste, but can also be harmful to health. In such a situation, it is important that we know that the sabudana we are eating is real or fake.
