Not the first time, says a student
A student said: "This is not the first time that a dead animal has been found in our mess food. We have found cockroaches, ink, and honeybee inside our food. We had submitted complaints to our professors and the institute director but in vain."

Concerns raised over IIT Delhi's carelessness
Jayant found the dead rat inside the chutney in his South Indian Thali served at the mess. The student then posted about the incident on the hostel's Facebook page along with a photograph. While some students made fun of it, many others were concerned about the negligence of the hostel mess staff. Around 400 students are reportedly living in the Aravali Boys Hostel.
