Bombay High Court Orders FDA Reinspection of Five MCA Outlets
A food regulator inspected five food outlets at the Mumbai Cricket Association’s premises.
The inspection happened on August 20.
The next day, the regulator suspended their licences and registration.
It said the outlets had possible problems with hygiene, storage and handling food.
The outlets are run by M/s Shirke Infrastructure, but their licences are in the Mumbai Cricket Association’s name.
The Bombay High Court has ordered the regulator to inspect them again.
The court said the suspension should be lifted if the outlets follow the food-safety rules.
The new inspection must include proper scores.
The Bombay High Court ordered a reinspection of five Mumbai Cricket Association food outlets at its Bandra Kurla Complex premises.
The Maharashtra Food and Drug Administration suspended the outlets’ licences and registration one day after inspecting them on August 20.
The regulator cited alleged hygiene, storage and food-handling violations.
The outlets were operated by M/s Shirke Infrastructure, although the licences were issued in the Mumbai Cricket Association’s name.
The court orally asked the regulator to lift the suspension if the outlets comply with food-safety rules during reinspection.
