Mid-day meals to be served to students at Ludhiana schools

The state education department has directed the government and aided schools in the district to serve mid-day meals to the students of classes 5 to 8 after the schools reopened on Thursday.

Directions were issued to deliver food grains to students who are attending classes online and to transfer the cooking costs to their bank accounts, as it was being done earlier when the schools were closed owing to the Covid-19 outbreak.

The higher authorities issued directions to the schools at 9 am on Thursday, and majority of the schools decided to make the required arrangements from Friday. The move by the higher authorities has left the school heads in a fix as preparation of the meals requires them to make arrangements to quickly purchase vegetables, pulses, salt, and oil commodities.
