Sirs, I have found that several cosmetic product manufacturers use certain chemicals which have been proven to be unsafe for humans. i now want to file a Suit for declaration that such manufacturers be ordered by Court to include statutory warning on their labels. I am not seeking damages or compensation. I was advised to go for a PIl, but then PILs become too long drawn and me as a Petitioner have to wait for long time for relief to come. Can you learned people advice me as to under which Section of Specific Relief Act,, I can file a Suit. Thanks in advance.

Specific Relief Act does not apply to your subject matter.
You only have PIL Route, especially when there is no provision in law as of now, for the same.

PIL can provide result, not available under specific relief act in this case.

If you are the affected Person the High Courts Will Not Entertain your PIL Petition. Better Consult Your Local Good Advocate.

You may go thru:
Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, guidelines
Drugs and cosmetics Act
Labeling Declarations by Bureau of Indian Standards
There are NGO's and lawyers that may concur to file PIL...............
