Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellant under Sections 7 and 16 of the Prevention of Food Adulteration Act, 1954, affirming the lower courts' decisions. The Court ruled that the High Court correctly dismissed the application under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973, as it lacked jurisdiction to review its own judgment once pronounced. The Court also noted that the appellant's claim regarding age and probation under Section 20AA of the Act was not substantiated, leading to the dismissal of the appeal.
