The decision to mark separate tables for vegetarian students in an IIT-Bombay mess and impose a fine on a student protesting against the move has sparked criticism from teachers. Some professors have expressed their disapproval, stating that the segregation based on food is irrational and rooted in casteist practices. They argue that such decisions should be illegal and that students should be taught to live in diverse surroundings. The institute's administration has not commented on the issue.
