Under the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006, books of account may be seized only with:
Answer and explanation
Correct answer B
The proviso to s.38(6) bars the seizure of books of account or other documents "except with the previous approval of the authority to which he is subordinate". A magistrate's order, the operator's consent or a warrant from the Adjudicating Officer is not what the Act requires.
