What is the mid-day meal programme? Can you list three benefits of this, programme?

Answer»

The government is trying to implement the equality that is guaranteed in the Constitution through laws and several schemes. The government has set up several schemes to improve the lives of communities and indiaviduals who have been treated unequally for several centuries. One such programme is the mid-day meal programme. This programme was introduced in all government elementary schools to provide children with cooked and nutritious food. This programme has many positive effects. Some of them are:

1. More poor children have begun enrolling and regularly attending schools, 

2. This programme has also helped to reduce caste prejudices because both lower and upper caste children in schools eat this meal together. 

3. A mid-day meal is prepared by the members of the women selfhelp groups that too from the deprived classes. Thus Dalit women have got employment with this programme.
