LAW FOR ALL

THE DRUGS AND COSMETIC ACT - “….Sub-section (4) also makes it abundantly clear that the right to get the sample tested by the Central Government Laboratory (so as to make its report override the report of the Analyst) through the court accrues to a person accused in the case only if he had earlier notified in accordance with sub-section (3) his intention of adducing evidence in controversion of the report of the Government Analyst. To put it differently, unless requirement of sub-section (3) is complied 8with by the person concerned he cannot avail of his right under sub-section (4).”
