Kashmir's food markets have been hit hard in recent weeks. Raids have revealed warehouses full of spoiled meat, consignments treated with industrial chemicals, and chickens pumped with antibiotics.

Some vendors have been caught reprocessing rotten meat or overcooking it to hide its age before selling it to unsuspecting families.

These troubling discoveries point to a larger public health problem, one that is silently fuelling a growing cancer risk in the valley.

The danger goes beyond stomach infections or short-term food poisoning.

Research shows a clear connection between contaminated or processed meat and cancer, especially cancers of the digestive system.
