**Disgusting Incident in Dehradun Raises Concerns Over Street Food Hygiene**
Dehradun (Uttarakhand), October 07: A shocking incident in Dehradun has sparked widespread concern about the safety and hygiene of food sold by street vendors. A juice vendor was caught in a highly unhygienic act, causing alarm among the public regarding the cleanliness of food items consumed from such sources.
According to reports, a woman witnessed the vendor reportedly cleaning his private parts with a cloth and then using the same cloth in the juice-making vessel. Disturbed by what she saw, the woman confronted the vendor and began recording the incident on her phone. She later shared the video on social media, which quickly went viral.
The video shows the woman accusing the vendor of unhygienic behavior, threatening to slap him if he lied about the act. The vendor responded by explaining that he was cleaning a boil on the lower part of his stomach with the cloth. However, the woman insisted that such cleaning should not be done near food preparation areas and suggested he should have moved away to a more appropriate place like a drain.
In the footage, the juice vendor is seen folding his hands, pleading with the woman to leave him alone and end the matter. Following the viral video, the police intervened promptly. They confiscated the vendor’s cart and instructed him not to set up his stall at the same location again.
Legal action has been taken against the vendor, and reports indicate that he was also fined for his unhygienic conduct. This incident serves as a stark reminder that the seemingly healthy fruit juices sold by street vendors can be unsafe if proper hygiene is not maintained.
Consumers are urged to be cautious and vigilant about food safety, especially when purchasing from street vendors, to avoid potential health risks.
