The document summarizes issues with the current Basera dining facility at IIT Madras from the perspective of students. It identifies problems with the entrances being unguarded, allowing animals to enter the dining area. It also notes the limited ordering counter causes long queues, and lack of seating means students often cannot find space to eat. Poor conditions are shown in the kitchen like lack of storage, improper gas cylinder storage, and inadequate preparation space. The document argues a new Basera is needed to provide a higher standard of dining for students and visitors that supports health and does not negatively impact studies.
