Controversial Video Sparks Outrage Over KFC Incident at ISKCON Temple

Viral Incident at ISKCON Temple

A recent video has emerged amidst ongoing protests by Hindu groups advocating for the closure of KFC outlets during the month of Shravan. This footage has ignited anger not only among the Hindu community but also among social media users. The clip depicts a man consuming chicken within the premises of an ISKCON temple, despite repeated warnings to refrain from doing so, leading to widespread outrage online.


The incident unfolded at the Govinda restaurant, a strictly vegetarian establishment located within the ISKCON temple in London. The video shows a British man of African descent eating chicken in the restaurant. When a woman at the counter attempts to intervene, he brazenly offers the chicken to other patrons and staff. Eventually, security personnel are summoned, resulting in his removal from the premises.



In the footage, the man initially inquires whether non-vegetarian options are available. Upon being informed that only vegetarian dishes are served, he persists in his questioning and then produces a KFC box from his bag, consuming the chicken at the counter despite multiple warnings. His actions have been deemed highly disrespectful.


The video has since gone viral, prompting a wave of indignation. Many users are calling for stringent measures against such behavior. One user remarked, “This is unacceptable as it tarnishes our culture. We cannot let a few individuals bring shame to everyone.” Another stated, “This was inevitable; if there’s a fire, many homes will burn. I’m not the only one in charge here.” Additional comments included, “This is a reaction to an action,” and “What he did was outrageous.”
