Deshmukh has been transferred to Amravati while Annapure has been transferred from Nagpur to Mumbai.
The new joint commissioner, food, had a brief chat with FnB News on Monday. With regard to the number of licensing and registrations undertaken in his area under the Food Safety & Standards (Licensing and Registration of Food Businesses) Regulations, 2011, he informed, “Till date we have issued 21,885 licences and completed 26,719 registrations.”
When asked, whether FDA, Maharashtra, would be able to complete the process of licensing and registration in the state before the deadline of February 4, 2014, he stated, “Already the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) has extended the deadline thrice. But I hope that with the help of NGOs in Maharashtra we will be able to complete the registration and licensing well on time.”
