No Biryani, Shahi Paneer For Lawyers As LPG Shortage Hits Delhi High Court Canteen

The Delhi High Court canteen is facing a significant disruption due to a shortage of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), impacting the availability of popular dishes such as biryani and shahi paneer for lawyers and staff. This situation has arisen amid ongoing supply chain challenges that have affected various sectors across the capital. The canteen, a favored dining spot for legal professionals, is currently unable to provide its usual hot meals, forcing patrons to seek alternatives. The LPG shortage highlights broader issues within the food supply chain, which have become increasingly prevalent in recent months. As the court continues to function, the absence of these staple items has raised concerns among those relying on the canteen for their daily meals. The management is exploring options to address the situation, but for the time being, visitors will need to adjust their dining expectations at the court premises. This development underscores the challenges faced by essential services in maintaining operational continuity amidst resource shortages, a scenario that has become common across Delhi and other metropolitan areas in India.
