A viral video showing a cockroach in food triggers an inspection at Garam Dharam Dhaba in Mohan Nagar, Ghaziabad, leading to the dhaba’s kitchen being shut. Food safety officials conduct an unannounced raid and find hygiene and storage-related shortcomings beyond the initial allegation.
According to reports, inspectors identify inadequate freezer conditions and significant cleanliness issues in the kitchen. Local authorities begin testing four food items—reported as including paneer and mustard oil—to check compliance with health standards. NDTV adds that the kitchen remains closed until authorities confirm that all deficiencies are corrected and required food safety standards are met.
Across outlets, the focus is on the same sequence: a cockroach video leads to a raid, inspections find kitchen hygiene and operational problems, food samples are taken for testing, and the kitchen stays closed pending remediation and clearance.
