Adulterated Toddy Victims Raise to 44, Four Dead, says Damodar Rajanarsimha
Hyderabad, July 10 (Maxim News): The number of people affected by the adulterated toddy incident in Kukatpally has risen to 44, according to Telangana Health Minister Damodar Rajanarsimha. The minister confirmed that four individuals have died, while dozens more remain under treatment across various hospitals in Hyderabad.
Speaking to the media persons, Rajanarsimha stated that 31 victims are currently receiving treatment at NIMS Hospital, six at Gandhi Hospital, and seven more have been admitted to private healthcare facilities.
The victims reportedly fell ill after consuming chemically laced toddy from multiple toddy compounds in the Kukatpally area. The incident, which came to light earlier this week, has triggered widespread public concern over food and beverage safety standards in the city.
The Excise Department has launched a full-scale investigation, detaining several suspects and collecting samples from toddy shops for chemical analysis. Preliminary lab results have confirmed the presence of harmful substances in the toddy consumed by the victims.
Authorities have also appealed to the public to seek immediate medical attention if they experience symptoms such as vomiting, dizziness, or abdominal pain after consuming toddy.
Health Minister Rajanarsimha assured that the government is closely monitoring the situation and all necessary medical assistance is being provided. “Strict action will be taken against those responsible for endangering public health,” he added. (Maxim News)
