Cockroaches shut Blinkit facility in Mumbai
The Maharashtra Food and Drug Administration suspended the food licence of a Blink Commerce facility in Mumbai due to a severe cockroach infestation and improper storage of items. This followed a complaint about live larvae found in a popular sweet, Laxmi Narayan kaju katli, at a Reliance Retail outlet in Buldhana district. The FDA seized 54 boxes of expired and tampered food from the Blink Commerce facility, citing unhygienic conditions, expired food, and lack of pest control.
Six food-related businesses in Bengaluru were also inspected, leading to the seizure of expired and contaminated food items.
