A post shared on X has gone viral after a man claimed that the paper used to serve his Rs 20 bhel puri was actually a printed bank statement carrying personal banking details.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"2\"\/>The incident quickly became a talking point online, with many users discussing not only data privacy but also the hygiene risks linked to serving food on discarded printed paper. The post has now triggered wider conversations around how confidential documents are thrown away and later reused in everyday settings.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"4\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h2>Rs 20 bhel puri post goes viral online<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"6\"\/>The viral post was shared by internet user Sudhanshu Ambhore. He posted a picture showing the paper cone in which the bhel puri was served.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"10\"\/>According to the post, the paper appeared to be taken from a Union Bank of India account statement. The document reportedly had visible details such as the account holder\u2019s name, account number, and transaction information printed on it.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"12\"\/>Reacting to the incident, he wrote, \u201cPrivacy is seriously a joke in India.\u201d<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"14\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h2>Social media reacts to privacy issue<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p> <span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"18\"\/>Soon after the image surfaced online, users began reacting strongly in the comments section. Many people said the incident showed how sensitive documents often end up in public spaces without proper disposal.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"21\"\/>One user wrote, \u201cPrivacy is a joke, and so is hygiene &#8211; imagine where all those sheets of paper would&#8217;ve been before they became a container for your snack. Maybe bought by a raddi wala and kept in some dusty corner where mice might have crawled over it.
