New Delhi, Nov 24 The apex consumer court on Tuesday said \"unending testing of Maggi samples cannot go on\", following the Rs.640-crore class action suit filed by the government against Nestle India.

A bench of the National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission (NCDRC), comprising Justice V.K. Jain and Justice B.C. Gupta, reserved its order on the decision on the tests.

The bench said it would decide later on the fresh tests on 31 samples of Maggi noodles, as requested by the government counsel on Monday.

Although the bench agreed in principle to have tested the 31 samples, identified by the government counsel, it reserved the order and said the decision would be made later.

The court would also decide in future regarding where the 31 samples would be tested, if at all fresh tests are called for.
