Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) Ravi Rai Rana also shared a video of the incident on Twitter and reacted to the same. Netizens reacted strongly to the video and expressed their disappointment. Few netizens also urged the food joint to maintain the highest standards of hygiene.
“This is insane, they should be extra cautious while preparing food,” wrote a Twitterati. “This is very common in the food court… Several time cockroaches roaming and enjoying food…,” wrote another.
“This used to be our favourite place at Elante. Good riddance. I hope other eateries take a lesson,” wrote one Twitter user.
