FDA Shuts Down Multiplex Food Counters!
17 Oct
Summary
- INOX R City Mall's food counters sealed for five days.
- Action taken due to alleged food safety and hygiene violations.
- FDA chief's crackdown extends to popular Mumbai cinema.

Tukaram Mundhe, Commissioner of Maharashtra's Food and Drug Administration (FDA), has intensified enforcement actions against food establishments. Recently, his department took action against INOX R City Mall in Ghatkopar, Mumbai.
The F&B counters at the multiplex were sealed on October 9 and were permitted to resume sales on October 13. This five-day closure was reportedly a consequence of alleged violations of food safety and hygiene standards.
This move by the FDA, under Mundhe's leadership, underscores a broader crackdown on restaurants and dark stores across the state. The closure of a cinema's food services, a significant revenue source, marks an unusual step in the ongoing inspections.
