Gurgaon: The education department outsourced a contract to provide mid-day meals to primary government schools all over Gurgaon.
An MOU has been signed between the Directorate of Elementary Education and ISKCON to provide meals to more than 90,000 students across the city.
A semi-automated kitchen will be set up to ensure that the food is cooked in a hygienic way and also to reduce the need for a large staff. The semi-automated kitchen would reduce our manpower needs but the people working in the kitchens currently would not loose their jobs.
The mid-day meal programme is an initiative started by the government to ensure students from poor sections of society have a good reason to attend school. The programme would be started in a phased manner in different blocks of Gurgaon (Pataudi, Manesar, Gurgaon) starting with Gurgaon.
