The state government had last year introduced the scheme in seven districts but faced stiff opposition from Lingayat, Jain and other communities.

New Delhi: In order to tackle malnutrition among children, the BJP government in Karnataka is planning to expand its initiative of serving eggs in mid-day meals to more schools across the district.

The state government had last year introduced the scheme in seven districts of north Karnataka, namely Bidar, Raichur, Kalaburagi, Yadgir, Koppal, Ballari and Vijayapura, but faced stiff opposition from Lingayat, Jain and other communities. The scheme was implemented from December 2021 to March 2022.

The proposal, once finalised, will be tabled before the state cabinet, The Indian Express reported. The government will bear the tentative cost of around Rs 6.50 per egg, which was Rs 6 earlier.

If the proposal is passed, Karnataka will be among the few BJP ruled states and first major state ruled by the party to include eggs in the scheme by the central government.

The mission of the mid-day meal programme, a flagship initiative of the Indian government launched in 1995, is to meet the nutritional needs of school-going children. Despite eggs being an excellent source of protein and essential nutrients, it remains a controversial ingredient in mid-day meals.
