In a surprising turn of events, Hyderabad’s beloved ‘Kumari Aunty‘ faced the shutdown of her iconic food stall in Madhapur. Known for dishing out delicious treats and gaining fame through social media, the stall had become a local favorite. The Raiduram traffic police stepped in on Tuesday, aiming to ease traffic snarls caused by the stall’s popularity, requesting Kumari Aunty to relocate.
Heartbroken by the closure after running the stall for 13 years, Kumari Aunty shared her disappointment, mentioning that her husband was upset over the sudden media attention leading to the shutdown. The situation took a political twist when the ruling YSRCP government accused opposition leaders Nara Chandrababu Naidu and Pawan Kalyan of influencing the closure, linking it to a house allocation for Sai Kumari, the stall owner.
Amid public outcry, Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy intervened, directing authorities to reconsider the decision. The episode highlights the delicate balance between local charm, traffic concerns, and the unexpected intersection of politics in everyday life.
