Mumbai, Aug. 5 -- Days after small glass shards were found in the mid-day meal served to students at a municipal school in Ghatkopar, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has cancelled the licence of Shruti Mahila Industrial Producers Co-operative Society Limited, the contractor that supplied the meals. According to a statement from the FDA, the decision was taken following an inspection of the contractor's food-preparation unit. Officials allegedly found several violations of food safety rules at the unit. Following the inspection, the food licences of Shruti Mahila Industrial Producers Co-operative Society Limited and an associated food establishment were suspended with immediate effect under the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006, and the Food Safety and Standards (Food Business Licensing and Registration) Rules, 2011, the statement said. HT had reported about the incident on July 30, when a student of the Pantnagar Upper Primary Hindi School in Ghatkopar felt a piece of glass between their teeth. According to the FDA, the contractor was supplying food to more than 3,000 school students every day. It said that the food safety violations found during the inspection could have posed a serious risk to students' health. Vikash Gughe, a teacher and representative of the Prahar Teachers Organisation, welcomed the action. "Students are now getting good quality food from another mid-day meal supplier associated with ISKCON. The food being served is of better quality," he said....
