Thousands of Mid Day Meal Scheme Workers Staged Protest in Jantar Mantar on Nov 18

The protesting workers are fed up with the government's inaction with regard to their pay and working conditions.

On November 18, Mid Meal workers from all across the country gathered at Jantar Mantar to protest against the Modi Government's inaction with regard to their pay and work conditions. 

The government has handed over the responsibility of providing food to children in some regions to non-government organizations (NGOs). It's a clear step towards the privatisation of the scheme.
