JAMMU, Jan 28: Mission Director, Mid Day Meal, Dr. Arun Manhas, today said the administration is mulling to establish ‘School Nutrition Gardens’ in all government-run schools of Jammu and Kashmir.
“The vegetables grown in these gardens will be used in preparation of Mid Day Meals which are served to the students in the schools under MDM Scheme,” Dr Manhas said.
The Mission Director made these remarks during a cooking competition that was held at Govt. Higher Secondary School, Vijaypur in Samba District today.

At least 10 cooks-cum-helpers from different Education zones of District Samba engaged by schools under Mid Day Meal Scheme participated in the competition in which emphasis was laid on preparing locally available food items as per culturally accepted habits.
The panel of judges was headed by Fateh Singh, Principal HSS Vijaypur.
