Karnataka adds eggs to school midday meals six days a week
Karnataka has expanded its midday meal program to include eggs for students up to six days a week. Approximately 65% of enrolled children opt for eggs, while bananas are offered as an alternative for those with different dietary preferences. The opt-in model is designed to respect diverse family and cultural food choices. Nutritional research backs the inclusion of eggs in school meals, and logistics have proven manageable. However, adequate state funding remains a significant hurdle for scaling this approach more broadly.
