section 21— 

(a) he shall use all dispatch in ascertaining whether or not the insecticide or its sale, distribution 
or use contravenes any of the provisions of section 18 and if it is ascertained that the insecticide or its

(b) if he seizes the stock of the insecticide he shall, as soon as may be, inform a Magistrate and

portions and effectively seal and suitably mark the same and permit such person to add his own seal and 
mark to all or any of the portions so sealed and marked:

sample  as  aforesaid,  the  Insecticide  Inspector  may,  and  if  the  insecticide  be  such  that  it  is  likely  to 
deteriorate  or  be  otherwise  damaged  by  exposure  shall,  take  three  of  the  said  containers  after  suitably

whom the sample was taken and shall retain the other copy for use in any prosecution in respect of the 
sample.

Inspector or the court before which any proceedings in respect of the sample are pending that he intends 
to adduce evidence in controversion of the report. 

(4)  Unless  the  sample  has  already  been  tested  or  analysed  in  the  Central  Insecticides  Laboratory, 
where a person has under sub-section (3) notified his intention of adducing evidence in controversion of 
the Insecticide Analyst‟s report, the court may, of its own motion or in its discretion at the request either 
of the complainant or of the accused, cause the sample of the insecticide produced before the magistrate 
under  sub-section  (6)  of  section  22  to  be  sent  for  test  or  analysis  to  the  said  laboratory,  2[which  shall, 
within  a  period  of  thirty  days,  make  the  test  or  analysis]  and  report  in  writing  signed  by,  or  under  the

specified in the said notification. 

27.  Prohibition  of  sale,  etc.,  of  insecticides  for  reasons  of  public  safety.—(1)  If,  on  receipt  of  a 
report under section 26 or otherwise, the Central Government or the State Government is of opinion for 
reasons to be recorded in writing, that the use of any insecticide specified in 3*** clause (e) of section 3 
or  any  specific  batch  thereof  is  likely  to  involve  such  risk  to  human  beings  or  animals  as  to  render  it 
expedient or necessary to take immediate action then that Government may, by notification in the Official 
Gazette, prohibit the sale, distribution or use of the insecticide or batch, in such area, to such extent and 
for such period (not exceeding sixty days) as may be specified in the notification  pending investigation

order  refusing  to  register  the  insecticide  or  cancelling  the  certificate  of  registration,  if  any,  granted  in 
respect thereof) as it deems fit, depending on the circumstances of the case.
