https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=186924 Section 244 of the U.P. Municipalities Act, 1916, read with Section 243, was construed as turning on objective facts, not the inspecting officer's subjective satisfaction, when determining whether food "appears to be intended for the consumption of man." The provision was also not extended to indirect sale for human consumption or to sale for animal consumption. On the evidence, the sellers had displayed notices that the flour was unfit for human consumption and were not shown to be marketing it as human food, so the statutory condition for action was not met. The orders under Section 244 were therefore invalid and liability for the loss caused by that action followed. en-us Wed, 28 Mar 1973 00:00:00 +0530 Tue, 04 Oct 2016 16:14:34 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=186924 Section 244 of the U.P.
