Primarily there was shortage of beds which was instantly arranged. The initial symptoms displayed by those affected patients included vomiting, cramps, breathing difficulties, and nausea which strongly points towards food poisoning. Dr Dhakad also added that the food needs to be examined and only then the necessary conclusions can be drawn.
A report is to be compiled and would be shared with the Gwalior commissioner. This in turn would be forwarded to the state government for necessary actions.
