Authorities said the act not only violated public hygiene standards but also posed serious health risks, particularly at large gatherings. The police have urged event organizers to ensure strict monitoring of food preparation at social functions.
This arrest adds to a series of similar incidents reported across Uttar Pradesh in recent months. In August, a man in Baghpat was arrested after allegedly spitting on rotis at a roadside eatery. Earlier in May and February, two separate cases from Meerut involved men caught on camera engaging in the same act during food preparation at public events.
