Over 80 guests suffered food poisoning at a wedding reception in Chokar Dhani on Amravati Road. Businessman Kailash Batra, a resident of Wardhaman Nagar, lodged a complaint at Kalmeshwar Police Station. Superintendent of Police (SP) Harssh Poddar said, police officials of Kalmeshwar Police Station have been directed to record the statements of the persons admitted at the hospital and collect their medical reports after which a case would be registered against the restaurateur. The wedding of Batra’s son took place on December 9 and 10. Trouble began on the afternoon of December 10 when the bridegroom and other guests experienced stomach pain after the meal. The situation escalated during the night reception when the food emitted a foul smell.

 

Despite complaints to the Chokar Dhani Manager, the issue was ignored, Batra alleged in the complaint. Around midnight, approximately 80 guests began vomiting and they were taken to a hospital. Batra filed a formal complaint against Parvati Lakshmi Infrastructure, Jeetu Mohan Savlani, Shyam Sawlani, Mohan Sawlani, Naresh Sawlani, Soni Sawlani, the Director of Chokar Dhani. The complainant accuses the director and management of Chokar Dhani of negligence which led to the mass food poisoning. Some victims are currently receiving treatment in a private hospital in Wardhaman Nagar
