The AMC sealed McDonald’s outlet in the Sola area of the city after a picture of a dead lizard in the cold drink the outlet served went viral on social media. Taking the complaint filed by Bhargav Joshi into consideration AMC Food Safety Officer Devang Patel took samples of the cold drinks from the outlet to the public health laboratory in the city for testing. The outlet has been sealed immediately for public well being and has been ordered not to reopen without prior permission.
