ICAR-CIPHET, Ludhiana gives licensing on `Wadi making machine’

Ludhiana: Wadi are generally prepared from pulses after soaking and grinding and thereafter forming small sized balls followed by drying in sun, commercially. This not only leads to unhygienic way of manufacturing but also takes more time, labour as well as causes human drudgery. Besides, the wadis obtained are not of uniform in shapes and sizes. Keeping in view the above CIPHET has developed wadi making machine which completely eliminates the hand operation thereby reducing drudgery and further contributing to food safety. Sahnewal (Pb.) based firm M/s Empire Bakery Machines Pvt. Ltd. approached the institute for licensing of this technology, Dr. Ranjeet Singh, I/c ITMU has facilitated the event and    Dr. Sandeep Mann, inventor of this technology assured him that all possible help will be extended for establishment of the unit. Dr. R.K. Singh, Director (Acting), ICAR-CIPHET, Ludhiana awarded licensing certificate.
