Maharashtra FDA Suspends Licences of Mumbai Eateries and Blinkit Outlet Over Hygiene Violations
The Maharashtra Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has suspended food licences of two Mumbai eateries—Delhi Sweet and Bhelpuri House in Malad West and Gulzar Mohammedi Hotel in Kurla West—due to serious hygiene and food safety violations. Inspections revealed issues such as unclean kitchens, improper food storage near drains, uncertified food handlers, use of untreated water, and unlabelled food products. Additionally, the FDA suspended the licence of a Blinkit outlet in Akola and destroyed unsafe milk at a dairy facility amid a statewide crackdown on food safety.
