The FDA has launched a major statewide enforcement drive against food safety violations, seizing food items and related materials worth Rs 1.68 crore during inspections conducted on July 13, an official statement said on Tuesday

The action covered milk and dairy products, banned tobacco-based food items, restaurants, hotels and other food establishments across Maharashtra

The licence of the establishment was suspended after officials found 25 major violations during a re-inspection

The issues included wet and slippery kitchen floors, lack of raw material records, absence of drinking water testing reports, missing oil quality records, poor separation between vegetarian and non-vegetarian food items and open windows without insect protection

The FDA carried out eight major raids and inspected 32 hotels, restaurants and eateries, issuing improvement notices to eight establishments and suspending licences of four food businesses
