"As part of the efforts to resolve the Maggi noodles issue, Nestle India has approached the Bombay High Court raising issues of interpretation of the Food Safety and Standards Act 2011 while seeking a judicial review of the order dated June 6, 2015, passed by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in Maharashtra and the order dated June 5 passed by FSSAI," Nestle had said in a filing to the Bombay Stock Exchange.
"At the same time, we are continuing withdrawal of Maggi noodle products. This action will not interfere with this process," the company said.
The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) had issued an order last week banning all variants of Nestle India's Maggi noodles, saying they were "unsafe and hazardous" for human consumption. On the same day Nestle India recalled Maggi noodles from the market after several states banned it as tests showed it contained the taste enhancer MSG (monosodium glutamate) and lead in excess of permissible limits.
Nestle was trading 0.44 per cent higher at Rs. 6,083.35 on BSE . Meanwhile, over 500 casual workers employed at Nestle's Goa manufacturing unit will be "impacted" due to the nationwide crackdown on Maggi.
"The contract workforce is getting impacted on account of Maggi noodles lines being shut down and the service providers are trying to redeploy around 500 of their contract workers elsewhere," Himangshu Manglik, spokesperson for Nestle's Indian operations, told IANS via an email.The Nestle factory unit at Maulingem, in Bicholim sub district, manufactures Maggi noodles, sauces, ketchup as well as soups. But Manglik said the production of Maggi soup has completely stopped for now. Manglik said "there is no impact" on the permanent employees of the company.
Goa had banned sale of Maggi from Monday and nearly nine tonnes of Maggi noodles has already been withdrawn by the company.
