&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Schools, Anganwadis find it difficult to meet nutritional needs of children, mothers, as a result&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Schools and Anganwadi centres (AWC) are finding it difficult to effectively run programmes that address the nutritional needs of children and mothers. This is because the government has not revised costing norms for mid-day meals despite inflation, teachers and activists said.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;There is an urgent need to re-evaluate the cooking cost of programmes such as the PM-Poshan (Pradhan Mantri Poshan Shakti Nirman), the Centre&amp;rsquo;s flagship mid-day meal scheme, according to teachers.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The last revision was done in May 2020, when it was increased from Rs 4.48 to Rs 4.97 per student per school day for primary (Classes 1-5) and Rs 6.71 to Rs 7.45 for upper primary (Classes 6-8).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&amp;ldquo;An egg alone costs Rs 6. It has become very difficult for schools to meet the cost of mid-day meals,&amp;rdquo; Priyanka Roy, a food rights activist from West Bengal, one of the few states providing eggs in mid-day meals, said.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The West Bengal government had revised the menu, given the rise in cost of food items. It had asked schools to give an egg just one day a week as against the earlier twice a week.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Ideally, the central government is supposed to revise cooking cost annually, to offset the impact of inflation on food items.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Under PM-Poshan, the nutritional norm per child per day is 450 calories and 12 grams protein for primary class students and 700 calories and 20 grams protein for upper primary class students.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Schools and Anganwadi centres (AWC) are finding it difficult to effectively run programmes that address the nutritional needs of children and mothers. This is because the government has not revised costing norms for mid-day meals despite inflation, teachers and activists said.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;There is an urgent need to re-evaluate the cooking cost of programmes such as the PM-Poshan (Pradhan Mantri Poshan Shakti Nirman), the Centre&amp;rsquo;s flagship mid-day meal scheme, according to teachers.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The last revision was done in May 2020, when it was increased from Rs 4.48 to Rs 4.97 per student per school day for primary (Classes 1-5) and Rs 6.71 to Rs 7.45 for upper primary (Classes 6-8).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The West Bengal government had revised the menu, given the rise in cost of food items. It had asked schools to give an egg just one day a week as against the earlier twice a week.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Under PM-Poshan, the nutritional norm per child per day is 450 calories and 12 grams protein for primary class students and 700 calories and 20 grams protein for upper primary class students.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Schools, Anganwadis find it difficult to meet nutritional needs of children, mothers, as a result&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Schools and Anganwadi centres (AWC) are finding it difficult to effectively run programmes that address the nutritional needs of children and mothers. This is because the government has not revised costing norms for mid-day meals despite inflation, teachers and activists said.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;There is an urgent need to re-evaluate the cooking cost of programmes such as the PM-Poshan (Pradhan Mantri Poshan Shakti Nirman), the Centre&amp;rsquo;s flagship mid-day meal scheme, according to teachers.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The last revision was done in May 2020, when it was increased from Rs 4.48 to Rs 4.97 per student per school day for primary (Classes 1-5) and Rs 6.71 to Rs 7.45 for upper primary (Classes 6-8).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&amp;ldquo;An egg alone costs Rs 6. It has become very difficult for schools to meet the cost of mid-day meals,&amp;rdquo; Priyanka Roy, a food rights activist from West Bengal, one of the few states providing eggs in mid-day meals, said.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The West Bengal government had revised the menu, given the rise in cost of food items. It had asked schools to give an egg just one day a week as against the earlier twice a week.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Ideally, the central government is supposed to revise cooking cost annually, to offset the impact of inflation on food items.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Under PM-Poshan, the nutritional norm per child per day is 450 calories and 12 grams protein for primary class students and 700 calories and 20 grams protein for upper primary class students.&lt;/p&gt;

Costing norms for mid-day meals, Anganwadis not revised despite food inflation -Shagun

-Down to Earth Schools, Anganwadis find it difficult to meet nutritional needs of children, mothers, as a result Schools and Anganwadi centres (AWC) are finding it difficult to effectively run programmes that address the nutritional needs of children and mothers. This is because the government has not revised costing norms for mid-day meals despite inflation, teachers and activists said. There is an urgent need to re-evaluate the cooking cost of programmes such as the PM-Poshan (Pradhan Mantri Poshan Shakti Nirman), the Centre’s flagship mid-day meal scheme, according to teachers. The last revision was done in May 2020, when it was increased from Rs 4.48 to Rs 4.97 per student per school day for primary (Classes 1-5) and Rs 6.71 to Rs 7.45 for upper primary (Classes 6-8). “An egg alone costs Rs 6. It has become very difficult for schools to meet the cost of mid-day meals,” Priyanka Roy, a food rights activist from West Bengal, one of the few states providing eggs in mid-day meals, said. The West Bengal government had revised the menu, given the rise in cost of food items. It had asked schools to give an egg just one day a week as against the earlier twice a week. Ideally, the central government is supposed to revise cooking cost annually, to offset the impact of inflation on food items. Under PM-Poshan, the nutritional norm per child per day is 450 calories and 12 grams protein for primary class students and 700 calories and 20 grams protein for upper primary class students.
