Bombay High Court lifts ban on Maggi, asks for fresh tests

Mumbai, Aug 13 (IBNS) In a huge relief for Nestle India, the Bombay High Court has ordered roll back of the ban on the popular instant snack Maggi noodles while asking the company to have its product samples tested afresh, reports said.
Disapproving of the ban clamped by the country's food safety regulator, the court ruled, "Principles of natural justice have not been followed in announcing the ban". In June, the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) said the snack was found "hazardous and unsafe for human consumption".

Manufacturer Nestle has been told that over the next six weeks, it must have five samples of its noodles tested by three accredited labs to prove that the amount of lead is within permissible limits. 
 
If the tests are in Nestle's favour, it can start selling the noodles again.

In June, FSSAI  banned Maggi on the ground of the product containing  excessive amounts of lead and monosodium glutamate (MSG).
