Telangana High Court refuses relief to G. Pulla Reddy Sweets
The Story in Brief
The Telangana High Court on Wednesday, 4 November, refused interim relief to G. Pulla Reddy Sweets in a challenge to the suspension of its FSSAI licence but ordered a fresh inspection of its Sanathnagar manufacturing unit. Justice N.V. Shravan Kumar directed the Food Safety Department to reinspect the premises and submit a report by the next hearing on 6 November.
The licence was suspended on 27 October after a TG-SAFE inspection during a state-wide crackdown found rotten vegetables, rat faeces, and expired products. Authorities seized 3,133 kg of food items valued at Rs 15.03 lakh. The petitioner argued the suspension was arbitrary and that deficiencies had been rectified. The government pleader countered that public health concerns must take precedence, particularly during the festive season.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The three outlets report the same core facts from the Telangana High Court hearing on 4 November: the court refused interim relief to G. Pulla Reddy Sweets, ordered a fresh inspection, and listed the matter for 6 November. The Times of India and siasat.com both quote the judge's remark about exports and the country's reputation, adding a dramatic element that Telangana Today omits. Siasat.com also names the judge's comment that the courts 'stood with' TG-SAFE, a line absent from the other two. The differences are of emphasis rather than stance: Telangana Today’s summary is the most restrained, while the other two add colour through direct quotes. All three agree on the suspensions date, the seized quantity of 3,133 kg valued at Rs 15.03 lakh, and the next hearing on 6 November.
