New Delhi Restaurant In Trouble After Refusing To Serve Deprived Children

#NewDelhi: The children were taken to Delhi restaurant by a woman, Sonali Shetty, who was celebrating her husband’s birthday.

The children were taken to the restaurant by a woman, Sonali Shetty, who was celebrating her husband’s birthday.
Ms Shetty, who later held a dharna, said, “For 10 hours I was sitting outside the restaurant. They were humiliating the kids.”

There is “no difference” between the rich and the poor, she said. “(But) if you are poor, you are not allowed to sit and eat.”

The restaurant has claimed that the children were creating trouble and disturbing other customers.

“I think I have my rights reserved, that if someone troubles our guests, then we can ask them to leave and that’s what we did. I don’t think we have done anything wrong,” said Roma Mohapatra, the public relations official for the restaurant.

“Yesterday Didi took us to a restaurant for dinner. Then a man came and told us to get out. Then we went somewhere else to eat,” said one of the children. A resident of Dehradun, Ms Shetty was in town for the weekend. But she has postponed her return, saying she wants to follow up on the matter.
