The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) has suspended the licence of Ganesh Products Private Limited after inspectors found fungus, cockroaches, and dead mice in its warehouse. The suspension was imposed with immediate effect in the interest of public health.
The company's licence will remain suspended until further orders from the regulator. The action follows an inspection that revealed serious hygiene violations at the storage facility.
Indian Opinion Analysis
Under the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006, FSSAI can suspend or cancel a licence without prior notice if conditions pose an immediate risk to public health. The suspension of Ganesh Products adds to a growing list of food business operators penalised for hygiene failures, including major brands in recent years. The company must now apply for a fresh inspection and demonstrate compliance before the regulator considers reinstating the licence. The duration of the suspension will depend on the speed and thoroughness of the corrective actions taken.
The regulator's next step will likely be a detailed report on the violations, which could lead to a prosecution or cancellation of the licence.
