Correct answer B

Section 21(2) FSSA allows direct use on food only of fumigants "registered and approved" under the Insecticides Act, 1968. Licensing under s.31 concerns food businesses, not fumigants, a Commissioner's approval is no substitute, and the Drugs and Cosmetics Act, 1940 does not govern fumigants.
