    ORAL ORDER:\n<\/p>\n
    1.     By these Writ Petitions, the licensees have challenged<\/p>\n
    the       suspension         of     their       licences        issued        under       the<\/p>\n
    Maharashtra          Prevention of Food Adulteration Rules,                            1962,<\/p>\n
    hereinafter          referred to as the “Rules”, by the                          licensing<\/p>\n
    authority and its confirmation by the appellate authority.\n<\/p>\n
    2.      In     Writ Petition no.2195 of 2008, 2196 of                            2008     and<\/p>\n
    2198      of    2008,       admittedly, no show              cause       notices         were<\/p>\n
    issued       to the licensees.              The submission on behalf of the<\/p>\n
    authorities          is     that     show      cause notice            was    issued        to<\/p>\n
    Subhiksha Trading Services Ltd., which is a sister concern<\/p>\n
    of     these      three      licensees         and, therefore,              it    was     not<\/p>\n
    necessary         to    issue separate show cause notices to                           these<\/p>\n
    licensees.           Further, according to the respondents,                            since<\/p>\n
    these      licensees         were operating from the                   same      premises,<\/p>\n
    show      cause notices were not necessary.                       We are unable             to<\/p>\n
    accept       this      contention.          The licensees             are    independent<\/p>\n
    companies         and Subhiksha Trading Services Limited &                             anr.,<\/p>\n
    to     whom     a    specific        show cause was issued                  is    also      an<\/p>\n
                                                                 ::: Downloaded on – 09\/06\/2013 13:56:15 :::<\/span>\n<\/p>\n

          This Order is modified\/corrected by Speaking to Minutes Order
\n    independent          company        like the licensees, and the                    licence<\/p>\n
    applied        for     was     granted in the name of                  each      of    these<\/p>\n
    independent companies.                 The authorities cannot be heard to<\/p>\n
    say that it was not necessary to issue a show cause notice<\/p>\n
    independently to the licensees.                      There is also no merit in<\/p>\n
    the     contention since the same licensees were operating in<\/p>\n
    the     same      premises,         it    was not       necessary           to    issue       a<\/p>\n
    separate        show      cause      notice.        On this ground            alone,        we<\/p>\n
    consider        it     appropriate          to    quash      and       set    aside       the<\/p>\n
    impugned orders in Writ Petition nos.2195 of 2008, 2196 of<\/p>\n
    2008      and     2198 of 2008.           We, accordingly, set                aside       the<\/p>\n
    impugned        orders.        The authorities shall be at liberty                          to<\/p>\n
    initiate fresh proceedings, in accordance with law.\n<\/p>\n
    3.      Coming       to     Writ     Petition          no.2197         of    2008,        the<\/p>\n
    petitioner is a company holding a licence under the Food &<\/p>\n
    Drugs      Act.        The     show      cause notice          alleged        breach        of<\/p>\n
    certain         conditions           of     the      licence          issued      to      the<\/p>\n
    petitioners.            After       considering         the reply to             the     show<\/p>\n
    cause      notice,        the licensing authority i.e.                       the      Asstt.\n<\/p>\n
    Commissioner           suspended         the licence for a period                  of     ten<\/p>\n
    days.      The petitioners carried the matter in appeal to the<\/p>\n
    Commissioner.           The Commissioner has enhanced the period of<\/p>\n
    suspension from 10 days to 20 days.<\/p>\n
\n\n\n\n    4.      Admittedly,          no     grievance        had       been      made      by     the\n\n\n\n\n                                                                 ::: Downloaded on - 09\/06\/2013 13:56:15 :::<\/span>\n                                    -:    4    :-\n<\/pre>\n
          This Order is modified\/corrected by Speaking to Minutes Order
\n    licensing         authorities before the appellate authority that<\/p>\n
    the     suspension          order passed by the Asstt.                      Commissioner<\/p>\n
    was     too light.          The learned counsel had not been able                            to<\/p>\n
    point      out     any      provision        in      law     which        empowers         the<\/p>\n
    appellate authority to enhance the punishment imposed upon<\/p>\n
    the licensee.           Rule 5(7) of the maharashtra Prevention of<\/p>\n
    Food      Adulteration Rules, 1962, confers a right of                                appeal<\/p>\n
    on     ‘any person aggrieved by the decision of the licensing<\/p>\n
    authority’.            Obviously,         the     right      of       appeal       is      not<\/p>\n
    conferred         on    the     licensing         authority.            The      Appellate<\/p>\n
    Authority         could not have, therefore, enhanced the                             period<\/p>\n
    of     suspension         in    an appeal by the             licensee.             On     this<\/p>\n
    ground,<\/p>\n
                   we consider it appropriate to set aside the order<\/p>\n
    in appeal.         The appellate authority shall be at liberty to<\/p>\n
    consider the matter afresh.\n<\/p>\n
    5.      That      apart, we find that the order of the                           appellate<\/p>\n
    authority         suffers       from      non-application of mind                   to     the<\/p>\n
    facts      and     circumstances            of    the     case.         The      appellate<\/p>\n
    authority has upheld the order of the Asstt.                                Commissioner<\/p>\n
    without         applying        its      mind     to    the      specific           alleged<\/p>\n
    violations.          The original order of the licensing authority<\/p>\n
    at      ground         no.3     states       that       the      walls         were        not<\/p>\n
    appropriately           painted.          Therefore, there is a breach                       of<\/p>\n
    rule      5(3)     of the Rules and term no.4(a) of the                            licence.\n<\/p>\n
    We do not see any reference of rule 5(3) to the case which<\/p>\n
                                                                  ::: Downloaded on – 09\/06\/2013 13:56:15 :::<\/span>\n<\/p>\n
