Family Alleges Religious Defilement: Non-Veg Served to Vegetarian Customers at Meerut
Meerut, Ganga Nagar: Romeo Lane, a popular restaurant located in the bustling downtown of Ganga Nagar, found itself at the center of controversy after a vegetarian family claimed that they were deliberately served non-vegetarian food, sparking outrage and raising questions about the restaurant’s practices.
According to reports, the family ordered vegetarian dishes during their visit to Romeo Lane. However, they allege that staff intentionally served them chicken, thus violating their religious beliefs. A video of the incident has gone viral, showing a restaurant staff member, Ashish, apologizing for what he described as an unintentional mistake. In the clip, Ashish can be heard explaining that the dish was meant for another table but was mistakenly placed on theirs.
The incident quickly escalated, with the family accusing members of the restaurant’s staff, specifically from a certain community, of deliberately defiling their religion. This accusation added a communal dimension to the incident, drawing further attention on social media.
Romeo Lane, located on the upper floors of Ganga Nagar’s downtown area, has faced scrutiny before. Not long ago, the restaurant was raided by GST officials for alleged tax violations. This latest controversy has only added to the establishment’s challenges.
The video has divided opinions online, with some supporting the family’s claims and others dismissing it as a simple human error. Authorities have yet to issue a formal statement, but the incident has reignited debates around sensitivity, accountability, and the importance of transparency in customer service.
Romeo Lane management has stated that they are investigating the matter internally and have expressed regret over the situation. Meanwhile, the family has called for a boycott of the restaurant, demanding stricter regulations to prevent such incidents in the future.
As the video continues to circulate, Romeo Lane remains under public and media scrutiny, with local authorities expected to intervene to ensure that such incidents do not recur.
