Abstract: | From Foreword: The idea of providing whole-some food to the needy children, stemmed from my own childhood experience of poverty. When hunger haunted my home, a lady next door extended a bowl of rice gruel to us and thus saved us from cruel death. Such merciful women-folk elected me as the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu having great faith in me. I felt it is my bounden duty to provide atleast one meal per day to the poor children in order to eliminate the suffering of their helpless mothers. Thus was born the massive nutritious noon meal programme which on date covers more than 8.5 million children through 66,000 centres spread all over the State of Tamil Nadu. |
