The school has been instructed to follow sanitation protocols while handling food and to keep an eye on the quality of the raw materials, particularly the vegetables, that are brought into the building.
 

Numerous female pupils at the government Model school in Veldanda, inside the same district, became unwell on saturday following the consumption of spoilt food. They were subsequently sent to a nearby government hospital for emergency care. parents brought home a few who fared better than the others.
 
Jeysa, an intermediate first-year MPC student at the model residential school, said that several of her classmates experienced stomach-related illnesses during the night after consuming tainted food on school property.
 

We even lack a car to transport us to the government hospital, which is located quite a distance away. We have been paying the private hospitals near the school and splitting the money amongst us as a result. We don't have the money, and our parents can't afford that type of money. A student gave the reporters an explanation of the problem, saying, "We need a car, medications, and a nurse to respond to our emergencies."
