The main objective of the Mid-Day Meal Scheme in schools is to enhance nutritional standards among children while also promoting school attendance and enrollment. This initiative aims to provide at least one nutritious meal per day to students, particularly in government-funded schools, ensuring that children from poorer backgrounds receive adequate nourishment, which is essential for their cognitive development. The scheme also serves as an incentive to increase participation in education, particularly for underprivileged groups, by alleviating hunger and encouraging a conducive environment for learning.
