Maharashtra FDA Suspends Food Licences of Five Mumbai Clubs Over Safety Violations
The Maharashtra Food and Drug Administration (FDA) suspended food business licences of five prominent Mumbai clubs, including the Cricket Club of India (CCI), MIG Cricket Club, RK Juhu Gymkhana, Aparna Juhu Gymkhana, and Willingdon Sports Club, following inspections that revealed serious food safety and hygiene violations. Issues included cockroach and fly infestations, poor segregation of vegetarian and non-vegetarian food, clogged drains, expired and mouldy food items, and improper storage practices. Goregaon Sports Club was ordered to stop operations for lacking a valid licence, while another establishment received an improvement notice.
