Samosas Meant for Himachal CM Served to Security Staff; CID Probe Calls it 'Anti-Government' Act
Samosas Intended for Chief Minister Consumed by Security Detail

Mishandling Sparks Outrage and Triggers CID Investigation
The error was discovered when the CM and his staff did not receive the samosas during a function in Shimla. A subsequent probe by the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) has been initiated to determine if the incident was an act of negligence or sabotage.
