Razor Blade Found in Osmania University Hostel Food, Students Protest

Students at Hyderabad's Osmania University demand action after repeated incidents of unsafe food and poor hostel conditions.

A razor blade was allegedly discovered in curry served at the New Godavari hostel mess at Osmania University, Hyderabad, prompting protests from students.
Protesters claim this is part of a pattern, citing previous incidents of worms, glass pieces, and other foreign objects found in hostel food.
Students criticized the hostel mess for serving substandard food despite charging Rs 2,500 to Rs 3,000 monthly, and alleged staff negligence in maintaining quality standards.
Concerns were also raised about inadequate water supply to hostels, with students reporting frequent illnesses and demanding a permanent solution like installing a borewell.
The university administration, including Vice-Chancellor M Kumar, has been called upon to address these recurring issues and improve living conditions for students.
