Then one of the students claimed to have spotted a lizard limb in one of the dinner dishes and following that claim some other students made the similar complaint of stomach uneasiness and vomiting tendency.

Considering that lizard limbs are highly poisonous and can result in major hazards, the school authorities did not want to take a risk.
