Maharashtra FDA Suspends Licences of Five Food Outlets at Mumbai Cricket Association
The Maharashtra Food and Drug Administration (FDA) suspended the food licences of five outlets at the Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) premises following inspections on August 20 that revealed multiple hygiene and food safety violations. The affected outlets—Permit Room, Pavilion, Mediterranean, Oriental Swing, and Clubway Pastry Counter—were found lacking in food handling, storage, refrigeration, sanitation, and temperature control. This action is part of a broader statewide crackdown, which included inspections of 45 establishments, issuance of improvement notices to 33, and suspension of 11 licences overall. The FDA also highlighted unauthorized operation by a third party at MCA outlets, prompting licence suspensions.
