KATHUA: In a decisive crackdown on food safety violations, Additional Deputy Commissioner (ADC) Kathua, Ranjit Singh, imposed a penalty of Rs 3.10 Lakh on defaulters under the Food Safety and Standards Act (FSSA) 2006. The action targeted establishments such as bars, wine shops, and medical stores found guilty of selling substandard and misbranded items, operating without proper registration, and neglecting basic hygiene standards.
Speaking on the development, ADC Ranjit Singh reaffirmed the administration's dedication to public health. “We are committed to ensuring safe and quality food for all. Any violation of food safety norms will be dealt with firmly,” he said.
The penalties aim to send a strong message to food business operators across the district to adhere to legal requirements and maintain the highest standards of quality and hygiene. The administration has reiterated its zero-tolerance approach to non-compliance, urging food operators to strictly follow the provisions of the FSSA 2006 to safeguard consumer health and well-being.
