  25. Chief Secretary Jharkhand has given direction to all Deputy Commissioners to entrust the District Officer of different Line Departments to also inspect the schools. To avoid mishaps pertaining to the mid-day-meal the department has issued detailed directives, for hygienic storage of edible and consumable articles and for keeping the kitchen shed and drinking water facilities in proper shape. A directive has been given to all concerned that repetition of occurrence of such event should be immediately stopped. Continuous monitoring is also done at state level meeting and necessary direction are given to all concerned officers regarding proper functioning of the MDM scheme and for providing hygienic and nutritious food to all eligible children. To avoid any mishap in the MDMs directions have been given that before serving meal to the children, it should be tasted by the headmaster of that school and a member of Village Education Committee and only after finding it safe it should be served to the children and all the teachers must be present in the schools when the children eat food.

  27. Community participation in management of MDM. Saraswati Vahini, a committee of mothers whose wards are studying in the school is primarily responsible for management of MDM. The bank account is operated jointly by sanyojika of Saraswati Vahini and president of VEC. Effective management of MDM through Bal Sansad (Child Cabinet)- Bal Sansad counts the no. of children present and informs Saraswati Vahini, monitors cleanliness by ensuring that every child washes his/her hand before taking MDM, ensures children sit in rows while taking MDM and also helps in distribution. Popular film on Mid Day Meal for effective advocation - UNICEF in collaboration with education department of Jharkhand has developed few films on MDM. Film shows the objective of the scheme, coverage, issue of malnutrition, community participation, safety, precautions of cooking, dress code, cleanliness of Saraswati Vahini and food preparation. Equity issues address in MDM- For MDM all children sit together irrespective of their caste, culture and religion. Saraswati Vahini members who manage cooking and serving of MDM, are selected without any discrimination of caste and religion. Best practices

  28. In Ranchi district Deputy Commissioner has conceptualized an innovative convergence programme for supply of fresh vegetables to each school and Anganwadi center in the district. DSE and DSWO of the district are coordinating this activity under the guidance of the Deputy Commissioner, Ranchi. This concept is to add value to the quality and nutritional level of MDM. Innovative practices

  29. Our Strengths and weaknesses • Community participation in management and supervision of MDM through Saraswati Vahini – a group of parent mothers. • Daily telephonic monitoring at State, District and Block Level. • Fund flow in remote schools gets delayed where nationalized bank are not situated. • Lack of separate Directorate for MDM.
