Roorkee: Students at the Indian Institute of Technology, Roorkee protested over non-veg food getting served in the Azzad Bhavan hostel mess and sat on 'Dharna' with empty plates outside the hostel's building.
Students alleged that Ahead of 2015 only veg food used to be served in all hostel's mess but later except 'Azzad Bhavan' non-veg food started getting served in all the hostels. That time also students had registered their discomfort as those students who don't eat Non-Veg, can have Veg food in some of the messes. However, for now, except Azad Bhawan, non-veg food started getting served in all the hostels.
