The Food and Drug Administration conducted special drives across Maharashtra between September 17 and September 20, seizing and destroying suspected substandard food items valued at over Rs 1.36 crore. During the four-day operation, 64 food establishments were inspected, resulting in the suspension of 12 food licenses and improvement notices for 36 others. Separately, the FDA permanently cancelled the manufacturing license of Shivnath Ayurveda Product Company after an inspection revealed serious violations of pharmaceutical standards.
