As the Maharashtra Food and Drug Administration (FDA) intensifies its crackdown on food safety violations across the state, FDA Commissioner Tukaram Mundhe has said that the FDA will fast-track the revocation of suspended food business licences, ensuring that businesses complying with regulations are not subjected to unnecessary delays and do not suffer extensive financial losses.
Responding to a question raised by mid-day.com during a press conference at the FDA headquarters in Bandra, Mumbai, on Wednesday, Mundhe clarified that while the administration has been rapidly suspending licences of restaurants, hotels, eateries, and other food establishments found violating food safety norms, the process for revoking those suspensions will also be expedited. “Of course, we are fast-tracking the revocation process as well,” Mundhe said.
