The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) has suspended the licences of three sweet shops in Hyderabad ahead of the Deepavali festival. This move came after inspections revealed multiple violations of food safety regulations at these establishments.

During the raids, officials seized a total of 1,035 kilograms of food products, which were found to be adulterated or unsafe for consumption. The shops failed to meet the required hygiene and quality standards mandated by FSSAI, prompting immediate action by authorities.

These measures are part of a wider effort by food safety authorities to ensure the quality and safety of festive food items sold across the city, protecting consumers during the high-demand season. Inspectors continue to monitor food businesses rigorously to deter the sale of substandard products.

The suspension of licences serves as a warning to other vendors to adhere strictly to regulatory norms, highlighting the government’s commitment to maintaining food safety standards and safeguarding public health.
