The Institute of Technology Kharagpur (IIT Kharagpur) has established separate tables for vegetarian meals at all dining halls, according to an institute source. This action followed a previous administration order prohibiting seating segregation. However, prior to the current controversy, there were existing separate vegetarian tables within the institution’s dining facilities. The source indicates that these tables were in place prior to the recent discussions regarding student-led initiatives. The decision reflects a student-driven initiative to accommodate dietary needs and preferences within the university’s dining infrastructure.
