Online food delivery apps do provide a doorstep service, but with a huge risk, that’s for sure. A Hyderabad man Srinivas Bellam ordered food from the delivery service and was left disgusted. He ordered a combo pack of Butta Bhojanam from Subbayya Gari Hotel through Swiggy.
As he opened the food, he found an insect inside it. Thankfully, he found it before eating. During coronavirus time, online services claim to provide world-class safety but the reality is different.
“As soon as I opened the meal box, I saw that the dessert had something odd on it. On a closer look, I realized it was an insect. While these hotels and online delivery platforms are claiming to provide world-class safety standards, especially during the time of COVID-19, in reality, they are still selling unhygienic food. Fortunately, I saw the insect before eating the food.”
Srinivas Bellam took to Twitter and complain about the serious issue.

Swiggy, as usual, is pretty quick with there apology reply and asked for some time to get back.
Oh no… An apology may not be enough to articulate the for the experience you’ve encountered, Srinivas. This shouldn’t have happened to begin with, let alone the meal being catered to you in this condition. Please allow us some time to have this checked & get back!

They only assure you that they will pass a feedback to supplier.
They never take action nor they impose any kind of penalties or some other serious action on restaurants.Business is always a priority for them.
Their licence should be confiscated to set an example.— Manish Madan (@Imanishmadan) June 15, 2020
