The State Of Goa vs Namita Tripathi

The Supreme Court examined whether the High Court correctly quashed the process issued against the respondent for alleged violations of the Factories Act, 1948. The High Court had found that the respondent's premises did not possess factory-approved plans and lacked a valid factory license, thus quashing the proceedings. The Court analyzed the statutory requirements under the Factories Act and Rules, emphasizing the importance of compliance with licensing and plan approval provisions. The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision, ruling that the proceedings were rightly quashed for lack of adherence to statutory prerequisites.
