Telangana HC slams govt on food poisoning incidents ‘Are officers sleeping?’

After food poisoning cases across government schools in Telangana, the High Court criticized the government calling the incidents a sign of negligence and demanded a response within a week.

Chief Justice Alok Aradhe called it a serious lapse, questioning, “Are the officers sleeping? What if they were to miss meals three times a week?



Will action be taken only when children die?”

Hardly a week after around 50 students from ZPHS Maganur in Narayanpet district fell ill after consuming their mid-day meal on November 20 and 21, a similar incident occurred on Tuesday, November 26, with over 30 students rushed to Maganur Government Area Hospital and Makthal Government Hospital.
