This incident is not an isolated case in Hyderabad. Recently, a woman lost her life, and 20 others were hospitalized after consuming momos from a roadside stall in the Banjara Hills area.
The victims reported severe symptoms shortly after eating, prompting local police to register a case and initiate an investigation.
Recently, Hyderabad’s Mayor, Gadwal Vijayalakshmi, conducted surprise inspections at two popular restaurants and discovered multiple violations.
