Hyderabad: Around 50 students of Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies (NMIMS) in Jadcherla suffered food poisoning after having their meals on campus on Thursday.

The students exhibited symptoms of nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, and fever after having their meal.

Students alleged that the management of NMIMS tried to cover up the incident by treating affected students on the premises instead of shifting them to the hospital.

Private doctors treated the students on the floors of the college’s library and common rooms.

On learning about the incident, Jadcherla MLA P. Anirudh Reddy rushed to the institute and took the administration to task. He expressed shock over the way the students were being treated on the floor of the premises.

Questioning the qualifications of the doctors treating the students and the lack of medical equipment, the MLA ordered the administration to shift the students to nearby hospitals immediately.

He questioned the university’s attempts to suppress the incident and shield those responsible for it.

“You are only trying to protect the university. Protect the children. Shift them to hospitals immediately. If anything happens who will take the responsibility?” he told the university officials.
