Rat Faeces, Expired Food Found At Sri Sri Holistic Hospital’s Canteen In Hyderabad

A task force from Telangana’s Commissioner of Food Safety recently inspected a hospital canteen in Hyderabad’s Kukatpally area. The team found serious food safety concerns and hygiene lapses at Sri Sri Sattvaahar Stores, the central canteen of Sri Sri Holistic Hospitals. Rat feces and live cockroaches were observed, indicating possible infestation. The grinding area was deemed unhygienic, and expired food items were discovered and promptly discarded. The canteen lacked Pest Control and Medical Fitness Certificates and did not display a true copy of its FSSAI license. Despite some issues, the food handlers were seen wearing appropriate gear like hair caps and aprons. Additionally, another inspection at Konark Tea in Fatehnagar revealed adulteration of loose tea powder, with large quantities of adulterants seized from the premises.
