Hyderabad: A Hyderabad restaurant owner was booked by the city police after a free haleem offer led to chaos and a stampede-like situation on Tuesday, March 12.
The management of the restaurant at Chaderghat, Hyderabad, which was inaugurated on Tuesday, March 12, the first day of Ramzan, decided to distribute free haleem among the public, only between 7-8 pm. Some people circulated the messages on social media and it went viral.
Hundreds of people turned up to enjoy the freebie, leading to a stampede-like situation. Police personnel, who were stationed near the restaurant resorted to lathi charge to disperse the crowd.
Following the chaos, the owner of the Hyderabad restaurant was booked for causing nuisance and traffic congestion. The police stated that the free haleem offer on the first day of Ramzan was made without any preparedness to handle the crowd.
The city of Hyderabad welcomes Ramzan with a festive glow-up as people gear up for shopping sprees and the traditional bazaars that continue to be the heart of this celebration.
One of the main attractions of the month undoubtedly is the food scene, which is an absolute gastronomical experience for anyone who loves to eat.
From ‘Pathar Ka Gosht’ to the famed Haleem, and not to mention desserts, Ramzan in Hyderabad is truly a foodie paradise. Moreover, over the last five years, other areas like Toli Chowki have also become quite well-known for different things.
