Expired Food Alleged in Government Schools Amid CJP's 'School Thik Karo' CampaignPreviousNext

Cockroach Janta Party founder Abhijeet Dipke has alleged that expired food is being served to children in government schools, sharing a video showing expired food items, including a masala packet, in a school kitchen. Dipke questioned whether those in power would feed such food to their own children and stated he would continue exposing the issue despite potential FIRs. The claim has not been independently verified, and officials have yet to respond or confirm any inquiry. The allegation arises amid CJP's 'School Thik Karo' campaign addressing rural school conditions.
