What began as an eagerly awaited meal turned unsettling when a girl student reportedly spotted a dead cockroach in the biryani on her plate.

However, students alleged that university staff asked them to delete the photographs from their phones.

The students, however, informed their parents, who subsequently contacted the university administration and raised concerns over the quality and safety of food being served on campus.

I don t know from where it came into the plate, but the ration was removed and the entire mess was cleaned with hot water, he said.
