Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan said the quality of education is continuously improving in the state at the school level.

In the last survey conducted by the Government of India, Madhya Pradesh was ranked 17th, in this year’s survey, Madhya Pradesh is at the fifth place in the whole country.

The people of the state deserve congratulations for this achievement.

The quality of education plays an important role in building a self-reliant Madhya Pradesh.

CM Rise Schools are being started with the aim of improving the quality. We have to keep in mind that the first happiness is a healthy body.

For this the quality of the food is important. Nutrition is provided by mid-day meal in schools, but proteins and vitamins play an important role in the development of children.

Moong dal is a good source of protein. Therefore, the state government has decided to provide moong dal to the students up to class 8th.

In the Moong dal distribution programme 10 kg is to be given to the students of class 5 and 15 kg of moong dal will be provided to the students of class 6 to 8.

78511 metric tonnes of moong dal will be distributed to 66 lakh students.

Chief Minister Chouhan started the state-wide moong dal distribution program by presenting five kg packets of moong dal to the students in a function held at Bhopal.

It was informed that the implementation of moong distribution would be done in coordination with the Department of School Education, Food, Civil Supplies and Consumer Protection and Panchayat and Rural Development.
