“This operation is being carried out in 60 countries of the world which includes Africa, America, Asia and Middle East.
“The operation is in continuation of a renewed global anti-counterfeiting fight against counterfeit, substandard, fake and unwholesome food and beverages in collaboration with Interpol and Europol,” he said.
