Eight students of an ashram shala in Hinganghat were admitted to the hospital after being afflicted by food poisoning on Wednesday. The children of Rajarshi Shahoo Maharaja Asramshala, managed by the Adivasi Sarvangin Vikas Sanstha, reported stomach pain and also started to vomit after their breakfast and were admitted to the government hospital.
Reports said that the students complained of stomach pain after their breakfast at 9.30am, some time after the morning prayer. There are around 150 students studying in the school. However, the chairperson of ASVS Keshaw Dhawarde termed the incident as simple stomach pain and dehydration, which according to him was not caused by the food provided by the school. He argued, "Had it been a case of food poisoning, how could only eight students out of the dozens have been affected by it?"
Police officials who arrived at the spot after the incident also agreed with Dhawarde. Consequently, no complaint was lodged against anyone. However, some local people said that though only eight students were affected, a clean chit should not be given to the school management and food being supplied to the students should be checked properly.
