In a shocking incident, a rat was found roaming on a food counter at Haveli theme restaurant near Phagwara early this morning. A video of the rat running around on the shelves, which had pastry, sandwiches, muffins, burgers, etc, was posted by some visitors there. They pointed out that already people were suffering from Covid-19 and any such carelessness could lead to spread of more infections.
Making the video, the visitors apprised the management of the carelessness of staff. The authorities finally destroyed all the food items kept in the counter and got it properly fumigated.
A manager of Haveli confirmed that the incident occurred this morning. He said since the counter was lying outside, a rat perhaps entered it when someone opened its shutter. “But it surely was a big negligence on the part of the staff. On our part, we have taken all the safety measures after the matter came to our knowledge. We have reprimanded the staff and told them to be very alert about hygiene and safety of the food in future,” he said.
