Govt must introduce millets in mid-day meal scheme: Kant

-PTI

The government must introduce millets into diet of the mid-day meal programme to improve India''s low nutrition ranking, Niti Aayog CEO Amitabh Kant on Wednesday said.

Speaking at a workshop on ''Energy-Water-Agriculture Nexus: Grow Solar, Save Water, Double the Farm Income'', Kant further said India needs to intensify crop diversification and public procurement must focus on very less water intensive crops.

"We must introduce pulses and millets into the diet of the mid-day meal programme. Procurement must move away from wheat and rice to millets and pulses, which are more nutritious," he said.
