Swiggy Instamart took down non-veg items including eggs, meat and fish for delivery in select cities like Pune, Delhi, Hyderabad and Ahmedabad on the occasion of Mahashivratri on Wednesday, although the deliveries were restored by the evening in few cities, the quick commerce platform's app showed. Sources said the decision to remove non-vegetarian items from the delivery menu in certain locations was taken to respect religious sentiments, as Swiggy Instamart is delivering the sacred Tandool Mahaprasad Ladoos directly from the Shri Kashi Vishwanath Temple on Mahashivratri. Meanwhile, some users took to social media platform X, formerly Twitter, to raise objection to the move, and shared screenshots to show non-veg items such as meat, fish and eggs being removed from the grocery section on Swiggy Instamart. Available only on Swiggy Instamart on Maha Shivratri, the Tandool Mahaprasad Ladoos are the same ladoos served at the Shri Kashi Vishwanath Temple. Swiggy Instamart will deliver .
