JUDGMENT P.N. Bakshi, J. - The applicant has been convicted under Section 7/16 of the Prevention of Food Adulteration Act and sentenced to eight months R.I. and a fine of Rs. 1500/- by the trial court. His conviction was maintained by the Sessions Judge, Mainpuri but the sentence of imprisonment was reduced to the period already undergone. The sentence of fine was, however, maintained. Hence this revision. 2. I have heard learned counsel for the applicant and perused the impugned orders. In the instant case the Food Inspector purchased a sample of Ajwain from the shop of the applicant, which on analysis was found to be adulterated. It contained organic extraneous matter 4.1% and inorganic extraneous matter 3.2%. After obtaining sanction the applicant has been prosecuted and convicted as above. Both the courts below have upheld the conviction of the applicant. I do not find any illegality or perversity in their findings. 3. Counsel for the applicant has submitted that the accused is a petty shop keeper. He has been given the benefit of the proviso by the Sessions Judge, who has reduced the sentence of imprisonment to the period already undergone, but has maintained the fine. Learned counsel has referred to the observations made by the Sessions Judge in this connection. Having regard to all the circumstances, I am of the opinion that it will serve the cause of justice by further reducing the fine of Rs. 1500/- to Rs. 1000/- only. 4. With the above modification in the quantum of fine, this revision is hereby dismissed. The fine of Rs. 1000/- shall be deposited within three months from today. In the event of default in payment of fine he shall undergo three months R.I.
