00:00Let's take a look at what the Tamil Nadu government report states about the killer cough syrup.
00:06Now, over 350 irregularities have been found in inspection of the cough syrup makers.
00:13The deficiencies were categorized as critical and major.
00:17Now, syrup manufactured, the syrup was manufactured in unsanitary conditions at the Tamil Nadu company.
00:24This is also what the Tamil Nadu government report states.
00:27The company lacked skilled manpower, machinery and also the facilities.
00:33And there was low toxic industrial solvent, propylene glycol, which was found in these cough syrup.
00:39Now, propylene glycol in large quantities can cause toxicity.
00:43As my colleague Ravish was also mentioning, if taken in smaller quantities, it's not harmful.
00:48But if taken in large quantities, it can cause toxicity.
00:52Industrial solvent, diethylene glycol was also found in the cough syrup.
00:56Now, diethylene glycol is used as cheaper alternative and diethylene glycol is more harmful than propylene glycol.
