Claim: Aruna Jain, a MasterChef India contestant, refused to cook an egg-based dish and withdrew from the 25 Lakh Price race.
Fact-check: Contestant giving up an Immunity pin in MasterChef India is shared as her rejecting the 25 Lakh prize money - FACTLY
Verdict: this incident happened in season 7, episode 24 of masterchef india. contestants were asked to cook an egg-based dish. aruna vijay, who belongs to the jain community, refused to cook an egg-based dish owing to her faith-based principles and gave away her immunity pin, which saves a contestant from elimination. giving up an immunity pin does not mean a contestant has withdrawn from the competition. hence, the claim made in the post is misleading.
