    In a move that has left many netizens and night shift workers in Cyberabad disappointed, the local police have ordered the early closure of the DLF food court. The restrictions, which mandate closure by 12 am from Sunday to Thursday and 1 am on Fridays and Saturdays, have sparked a wave of complaints, particularly from the bustling Gachibowli area where a significant population works late-night shifts.

    During the earlier governance under BRS rule, night owls, especially tech professionals working overnight, enjoyed unrestricted access to food outlets. The recent imposition of strict timings has left many struggling to satisfy their late-night cravings.

    Frustrated by the new regulations, residents took to social media platforms to voice their discontent. A Twitter user, Amruta, questioned, “What about shift employees who come out searching for food? The @TelanganaCMO @CommissionrGHMC government will now decide when people should eat? Then close all offices also at the same time if you want to keep them hungry.”

    The DLF street food court in Gachibowli has been a popular choice for night-time meals, and the new restrictions have left IT employees and street food enthusiasts in disappointment and hunger. Many have appealed to authorities to reconsider the closure timings and ensure that the food court remains open to cater to the needs of those working late shifts in Hyderabad.

    Amal Jose Philip, a PhD student, expressed his frustration on X (formerly Twitter), stating, “The point of these shops is to be open even late into the night, so that they can serve the late shift employees in the IT companies in the area. What is the logic of early shutdowns?”

    Sharing his experience, Md Ahmed Shariff, an employee at a US-based MNC in Nanakramguda, highlighted the challenges faced by those working night shifts. “I work the night shift in a US-based MNC in Nanakramguda. My friend and I go out around 11:30 pm-12 am to have dinner occasionally. Yesterday, when we went out searching for food, no restaurants or food trucks were open at 11 pm,” he said.

    As the debate continues online, the fate of late-night food accessibility in Cyberabad remains a topic of concern for the working population in Gachibowli and the surrounding areas.
