Nellore: Centipede found in TTD sambar rice

Nellore: A devotee from Hyderabad complained on Thursday that he had found a centipede in the sambar rice provided by the TTD at the pilgrim amenities centre-1 in Madhava Guest House in Tirupati.

TTD officials manning the Annadanam canteen were taken aback when Mr Srinivas showed them the insect. Officials said it may have fallen into the vat while sambar was being mixed with rice. TTD executive officer Dr D. Sambasiva Rao has ordered for a probe into the incident.
