Last year, the Education Ministry announced plans to provide free breakfast to all students regardless of their socio-economic background." as rich children will also be getting free food, and said the programme would be retailored so that only poor children will receive the free breakfast.
"While the universal provision of school meals will rack up a hefty bill, we must recognise that school feeding is not only a nutrition intervention but also an investment in children. They said that feeding poor children only can lead to"school food shaming" where students who get help are stigmatised and ridiculed for receiving food aid.
Meanwhile, they said a universal food programme can also address a double malnutrition problem that affects both rich and poor children. While the research paper did not thoroughly analyse the existing school food programmes in the country, it said that one way healthy eating can be encouraged is for school canteens to only sell food items that are approved for student consumption.
Feeding is a onerous deed of mankind..Also please ensure other positive attitude towards acquiring knowledge..The Nation in future can be self- dependent for atleast most of the things..
