Kalu Ram vs State Advocate - Public Prosecutor — 39/2019

Case Summary The Rajasthan High Court (Additional Sessions Judge, Bundi) partially allowed the appeal filed by Kailuram against his conviction under the Food Adulteration Prevention Act, 1954, Section 7/16 and Rule 50/16. While upholding the conviction, the court modified the sentence by replacing the original imprisonment of 6 and 3 months with a monetary fine of ₹2,000 (₹1,000 each for both offenses), considering that this was the appellant's first offense, he had been undertrial for 16 years, and he was 70 years old—factors making him eligible for benefits under the newer Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006.
