After the LPG shortage and price increase, the lawyers in Delhi High Court canteen not get the main course meals. They skip their usual hot meals because canteen has temporarily stopped serving the main course. Dal makhani, biryani and shaheepaneer are not available. Customers in black robes have to settle for lighter options like salads and sandwiches.
Main Course Items Temporarily Unavailable due to LPG shortage
Notice informed lawyers about food disruption in canteen. It said, “This is to respectfully inform you that due to the unavailability of the LPG gas cylinder at present, we regret that we are unable to prepare and serve the main course items in the Lawyers’ Canteen.”
This development comes amid increasing concerns about fuel supply disruptions linked to the ongoing war in the Middle East.
Hunger in Court Corridors
Lawyers today found themselves hungry and caught off guard when they went to lunch around 1 p.m. at the canteen. News and reactions spread quickly through the court corridors.
One lawyer asked on a WhatsApp group if a samosa would be available. He received a clear “no” in response. Some lawyers considered bringing their lunch boxes, but those without proper chambers or a place to sit wondered how they would heat their food.
Advocate Satyam Singh Rajput, a regular practitioner before the Delhi High Court and the Supreme Court, expressed concern over the notice regarding the LPG shortage in the canteen.
