A group of students from Amity University’s Panvel campus has escalated a growing health crisis to the state government, alleging that contaminated food and water at the university mess have led to a spike in serious illnesses.

Represented by the Students Federation of India (SFI), a student delegation reached out to officials at the Mantralaya to submit a formal representation. They claim that while initial issues were limited to food poisoning, the situation has worsened since January, with several students now contracting Jaundice and Hepatitis A.
