Delhi High Court Dismisses Vimal Elaichi Maker's Plea Against Maharashtra FDA Notices
The Delhi High Court dismissed a plea by Vimal Elaichi maker PB Agro LLP challenging show-cause notices issued by the Maharashtra Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to actors Shah Rukh Khan, Ajay Devgn, and Tiger Shroff. The notices allege that their advertisements for Vimal Elaichi indirectly promote Vimal Pan Masala, a product banned in Maharashtra. The court ruled that Maharashtra is the appropriate jurisdiction for the case, without addressing the merits of the allegations.
