Mr Verma writes he noticed a 'grossly unhygienic state of affairs' at the CCD store in Hawa Mahal, Jaipur, when he saw cockroaches and other bugs inside a refrigerator used to store cakes and confectionaries. He says that the staff used menus to cover up the bugs and continued serving food from the same refrigerator.
