Consumer Guidance Society of India (CGSI), a city-based NGO on Monday unearthed a huge edible oil adulteration racket carried by several shops. CGSI in a meeting claimed that almost 64% of the loose edible oil (namely sesame oil, coconut oil, groundnut oil, mustard oil, sunflower oil, cottonseed, soybean, godtel), is mixed with palm oil, thus putting the consumer's interest at stake.
