Drug Manufacturer Can't Be Held Liable For Not Meeting Standards Prescribed After Date Of Manufacture: Bombay High Court @AmishaShriv #BombayHighCourt livelaw.in/news-updates/b…
@AmishaShriv In this case the gazette is dated 6th October, 2005 by which standard is prescribed for the first time and thus in no case it can be said that it has retrospective operation. Admittedly the drug is manufactured on 01.10.2004 and that fact is not disputed:
#BombayHighCourt
@AmishaShriv Thus, no person shall be made to face prosecution for manufacturing a drug prior to prescribing certain standard. Hence, prosecuting the petitioner (drug manufacturer) for manufacturing such drug would clearly be an abuse of process of law: #BombayHighCourt
