What are the various features of the mid
day meal program?
The government-initiated mid day meal program is a hot fresh meal
providing a scheme to children government schools, government-
aided schools, localized schools, etc. While the central government
is the main initiator, the state government is the active supporter of
this scheme. Generally, food NGOs in India implement the mid day
meal program in schools in a public-private partnership with the
state government.
These food non-government organizations or food NGOs in India
provide hot, freshly cooked, nutritious healthy regular one time
meals to the students as a part of the mid day meal scheme by
cooking it in their high-tech kitchens through expert cooks and
delivering them through innovative delivery methods.
The mid day meal scheme has various salient features. These are –
 The mid day meal scheme is considered one of the world’s largest
school meal programs aimed to achieve the goal of universalization
of primary education.
 The Ministry of Human Resources and Development (MHRD) is the
authorized body to implement the program all across the nation.
 The scheme is a centrally sponsored scheme shared with the state.
 The mid day meal scheme became a cooked mid day meal scheme
in 2001 providing children with 300 calorie energy intake and 8-12
gram protein intake through a prepared meal for a minimum of 200
days.
 From 2002, the mid day meal scheme included the Education
Guarantee Scheme (EGS) and Alternative & Innovative Education
(AIE) center along with government, government-aided, and local
body schools.
 In 2004 mid day meal scheme included central assistance providing
cooking cost, transport subsidy, management, monitoring,
evaluation, provision of mid day meals during summer vacation to
children of drought-affected areas.
 2006 mid day meal scheme revision included cooking cost
enhancement to Rs 1.80 per child/school day for States in the North
Eastern Region and Rs 1.50 per child/school day for other States
and UTs.
 The 2006 revised mid day meal scheme revised nutritional norms
and increased 300 calories energy intake to 450 calories and protein
intake to 12 grams.
 3,479 Educationally Backwards Blocks (EBBs) students of class 6-8
were included in the scheme.
 In 2008, SSA-supported madrasas and maktabs were included.
First initiated on August 15, 1995, the mid day meal has come a
long way. It has undergone several crucial changes, which have
positively impacted the children, especially the underprivileged. By
the year 2015-16, the mid day meal scheme has been implemented
in 12 lakhs primary and upper primary schools. This has benefited
more than 12 crore children. It means the deployment of this
scheme has provided significant benefits for helping
underprivileged children get education and nutrition together.
