Visakhapatnam: Students of Andhra University staged a protest for the second consecutive day, voicing their outrage over alleged unhygienic food being served in the campus mess.
The protest began with a march from the university registrar’s office to the Arts Campus. Students walked out of their classrooms in large numbers to express their discontent, alleging that rice served in the mess contained worms.
According to the students, repeated complaints about the quality of food have been ignored by the authorities. With no action taken, the students have now resorted to a sit-in protest at the university’s main gate, demanding immediate redressal.
