Godawat Pan Masala Products I.P. Ltd. & ... vs Union Of India & Ors on 2 August, 2004
"25. It is true the Apex Court in Godawat Pan
Masala's case held that mere traces of magnesium
55
carbonate formed during consumption of product along
with lime cannot be banned, but in the instant case
anticaking agent viz., magnesium carbonate is not
found during consumption but the analytical report
discloses that magnesium carbonate is contained in the
very sample which, in our considered opinion may be
either externally added or present in the raw materials.
Whatsoever the case may be, the report discloses that
there is usage of anticaking agent viz., magnesium
carbonate in the food article in question namely gutka.
That apart Supreme Court in the very same decision
held that the provisions of PFA Rules framed and
directions issued thereunder cannot be said as not
applicable merely because licence is contemplated for
manufacture of gutka under the Cigarettes and other
Tobacco Products (Prohibition of Trade and Commerce,
Production, Supply and Distribution) Act, 2003. The
PFA Act was legislated for the prevention of
adulteration of food whereas Cigarettes and other
Tobacco Products (Prohibition of Trade and Commerce,
Production, Supply and Distribution) Act, 2003 is
intended to prohibit advertising and to regulate the
trade and as such there is no conflict between the
legislative objects between the two enactments."
