The Maharashtra Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has suspended the food licence of a Blink Commerce facility in Mumbai over extensive "cockroach infestation" and improper item storage, while an outlet of Reliance Retail is under the lens after live larvae were allegedly found in a popular sweet variety, officials said on Monday.
These violations came to light as the FDA stepped up its state-wide enforcement of food safety standards under its new commissioner, Tukaram Mundhe.
