A CRITICAL ANALYSIS ON MID-DAY MEAL SCHEME:

Abstract

 Mid day meal scheme was designed with a view to enhancing enrolment, retention and simultaneously improving nutrition level among the children. The primary goal of the midday meal programme is to enhance the nutritional status of children in government classes I through VIII. It is also used to encourage children from low-income families to attend elementary school on a regular basis. As a result, the purpose of this article is to investigate the existence of nutrition in the government schools' midday meal programme, as well as the cooking patterns, including the cost of cooking, among the schools in the district. As a result, data will be collected from both primary and secondary sources in order to complete the study.
