22 Girls Fall Ill after Eating Hostel Chicken Curry in Wanaparthy

Twenty-two students of Government Polytechnic College for Girls in Pebbair in Wanaparthy district fell sick after consuming chicken curry provided in their hostel on Wednesday night. 

A few hours after consuming it, students started vomiting and severe stomach pain. The hostel staff provided tablets to girls to get relief. Of the 22 students, most were shifted to a hospital near the hostel.

As the situation started becoming worrisome for 10 students, the staff rushed the students to the government primary



health centre in Pebbair on Thursday morning. Even as students are undergoing treatment, their parents rushed to hospital to enquire about their child’s health condition.

Students called their parents to complain about their health situation. According to officials, the staff members would provide chicken curry to students every Wednesday. 

As usual, they provided it on Wednesday but within a few hours, the students developed health problems raising questions on the quality of food being supplied to students.
