WATCH: Man serves food cooked in toilet water to Sabarimala pilgrims, caught by Ayyappa Seva Sangh

A food stall at Erumeli, along the routes leading to the revered Sabarimala temple in Kerala, has come under scanner for reportedly using water from toilets in the preparation of edibles served to pilgrims seeking the blessings of Lord Ayyappa.

Unsanitary Practices Revealed During Inspection

The Ayyappa Seva Sangh conducted an inspection, revealing that the food stall, managed by Abdul Shehim, who also serves as the DYFI Erumeli Regional Secretary, had been utilising toilet water for cooking for approximately two weeks. This revelation has raised concerns about the safety of the food served to devotees.

Shocking Discovery by Vigilance Team

According to a report by Manorama Online, a vigilant team from the revenue department caught the staff of the food stall in the act of connecting a hose from the toilet pipe to procure water for their culinary activities. The health department promptly intervened, closing down the temporary shop and initiating legal proceedings against the license holder.
