Correct Answer:
C. 7 days
This question addresses the enforcement measures, specifically the maximum duration for sealing premises, for repeat offenders under the Act. Such measures are designed to deter continued non-compliance.
- Correct Option (C) 7 days: The Act specifies that the maximum period for sealing premises in the event of a repeat offense is 7 days. This duration is intended to be a significant deterrent without being excessively punitive for the initial repeat violation.
- Incorrect Options (A) 15 days, (B) 3 days, (D) 1 month: These periods are not the stipulated maximum for sealing premises in a repeat offense. 3 days might be a minimum or for a less severe infraction, while 15 days or 1 month (30 days) would typically apply to more serious or prolonged violations, or different stages of enforcement.
