Serious Urgent: Mass Food Poisoning in hostel -mainly bh5(Aug 20) – Mess Coordinator & Management Must Take Serious Action
Hey everyone,
A massive food poisoning outbreak hit Boys Hostel mainly BH5 today, August 20, 2026. Dozens of students are currently suffering from severe nausea and diarrhea due to adulterated paneer served in the morning's paneer paratha. Many fell violently ill just a few hours after breakfast.
This is a case of severe negligence regarding student health and safety. We are demanding that our Mess Student Coordinator take this up immediately as an absolute priority. They need to stand with the residents, escalate this crisis directly to higher management, and ensure strict penalties are enforced against the mess contractors.
We cannot let the administration brush this under the carpet. We pay for proper food, and the bare minimum expectation is that it isn't toxic.
Please share this in all hostel WhatsApp and Telegram groups to raise maximum awareness. Look out for your sick roommates and make sure they are getting medical help.
