The owners of factories, warehouses, and distribution units were advised to maintain accurate inventory records of the chemicals and raw materials.  

They were also instructed to stay vigilant regarding the use of prohibited chemicals and raw materials. 

The police had also issued a warning that strict legal action will be taken if any suspicious activities are found.
