I am writing to formally report the illegal sale of banned gutka and tobacco products at a shop operating in our locality.
Shop Name: Famous Pan Shop
Location: Dosti Planet North, opposite Dosti Club, near Shilphata, Thane – 400612

Date & Time Observed: (regularly)
Despite the statewide ban on gutka and flavored tobacco in Maharashtra, this shop is openly selling these prohibited products. What makes this matter extremely serious is that a school is located very close to the shop, and many students and minors pass through this area daily. The sale of such harmful and banned products near an educational institution poses a serious risk to public health and violates government regulations.
I have attached video evidence clearly showing the illegal sale of gutka at the mentioned location.
I respectfully request the concerned authorities to conduct an immediate inspection and raid at the shop, seize the illegal products, and take strict legal action against the shop owner under the relevant provisions of the Food Safety and Standards Act and Maharashtra’s gutka ban orders.
This activity has been continuing regularly, and timely intervention by the authorities is necessary to prevent the spread of banned tobacco products among youth and protect the surrounding community.
I sincerely hope the authorities will treat this complaint as urgent and take immediate action.
Thank you for your attention.
