The findings of the study done by the Centre for Science and Environment that popular soft drinks like Coca-Cola and Pepsi contain traces of toxic pesticides and insecticides have prompted health experts and activists to ask the government to urgently regulate the soft drinks manufacturers' operations in India.
The CSE study released on Tuesday said that the soft drinks produced in the country contain deadly health hazards such as lindane, DDT, malathion and chlorpyrifos.
CSE says its study found that 12 major brands sold in the capital, including Coca-Cola, Pepsi, Mountain Dew, Mirinda, Diet Pepsi and Limca, contained pesticide residues. "The tests were done in our labs, based on international methodology and the study was funded by CSE," says CSE director Sunita Narain.
Only six months ago, the same organisation had opened a can of worms on pesticide residue in bottled water and the exercise had ended with the Indian health ministry notifying new norms for pesticides in packaged drinking water.
