Joint Director (Food and Drugs Administration) Lalsawma told that the samples were sent on Wednesday as Mizoram does not have testing facilities to determine food safety.
Lalsawma said that the laboratory would send its report and findings to the Mizoram health department which would be submitted to the Food Safety and Standard Authority of India (FSSAI).
Though the state government did not ban the Nestle product, the company continued recalling its product from the state.
He said that the recalling process progressed well but recalling all the products from all the remote villages took time.
