Amid growing concerns over food availability in Hyderabad’s IT corridor, the IT Corridor Hostels Association has appealed to hostel operators not to shut down their kitchens, warning that such a move could push companies to consider work-from-home (WFH) options for employees.

In a communication issued to its members, the association said it had received information that some IT firms are weighing remote work owing to uncertainties around food supply. It cautioned that any disruption in hostel food services could directly impact occupancy and operations, as many employees depend on these facilities for daily meals.
