Bhopal Student Finds Lizard 'Eyes And Legs' In Food, Cook Eats It To Prove It’s Capsicum A student at a technical university in Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, reportedly discovered a lizard-like object in their hostel meal, sparking outrage and raising serious concerns about food safety. The incident unfolded when the student identified what they believed to be the eyes and legs of a lizard in a mixed vegetable dish served during lunch. After raising the issue with hostel staff, the staff dismissed the claim, insisting the object was simply a piece of capsicum. The situation escalated when a cook in the mess picked up the item, ate it in front of the students, and repeatedly asserted it was bell pepper, attempting to prove its identity. The student’s discovery came amid growing frustration over repeated complaints about poor hygiene and substandard food quality in the hostel mess. According to reports, the student had noticed unusual features in their meal, which included dal, roti, and mixed vegetables. They pointed out the suspicious object to hostel staff, who initially refused to acknowledge the issue. The cook’s act of consuming the item in front of the students further fueled anger, as it appeared to validate the students’ fears about the mess’s unsanitary conditions. Following the incident, students organized a protest, demanding immediate action from the university administration. They submitted a memorandum to the Vice-Chancellor, calling for the removal of the mess contractor, a thorough investigation into the mess operations, and compensation for those affected. One student expressed frustration, questioning how the staff could consume the item without adverse effects.#students #bhopal #technical_university #sunil_agarwal #mess_contractor
