‘Extremely Dangerous’: Netizens React

As clips of the woman surfaced online, social media users flooded comment sections, expressing outrage and questioning food safety regulations.

One user wrote, “If the administration starts taking strict action now, people will immediately say these are poor people and start defending them. The issue is not about rich or poor. Anyone caught risking public health like this should face action. People will eventually consume these things.”

Second commented, “This woman is not thinking about public health at all. She only cares about selling her cucumbers.”

Another user questioned the assumptions being made online and wrote, “How do we know it is harmful colour? Nobody is trying to understand what exactly is happening in the video. Many food items already contain colours, and several of them are not safe either.”

Fourth stated, “This looks extremely dangerous for health. Authorities and railways should immediately look into this matter.”

So far, no official statement has been issued at the time of writing this report regarding the viral video.
