Subpar doodh-poha on Sharad Purnima causes chaos at Karnavati Club
Updated: Oct 18th, 2024
A Sharad Purnima event at Karnavati Club in Ahmedabad turned into a free for all after club members were aggrieved by the quality and quantity of the doodh-poha served to them on Wednesday.
The club had organised an event on the full moon night on Wednesday between 8 and 10 pm at the club lawns.
On the occasion, people were served doodh-poha, which is a dessert of beaten rice soaked in saffron and cardamom-flavoured milk, and dry fruits.
However, to the disappointment of the attendees, there were very few counters at the club serving the delicacy. Moreover, the dish had issues with quality and was found to be stale.
This created a ruckus between the organisers and the members, which turned out to be violent as chairs were hurled at one another.
While the top management reached the spot to pacify the situation, food committee chairperson and club’s restaurant owner Niki Patel left the venue.
Durgesh Buch, president of the Board of Directors of Karnavati Club said, “Yes, there was mismanagement followed by a confusion. As management, we are admitting our mistake. We are sending an apology message to every member for the inconvenience caused, expressing our regret, and refunding their money.”
