Govt makes Aadhaar mandatory to avail mid-day meals
The Centre has made Aadhaar number mandatory for students to avail mid-day meals and has given time till June 30 to those without an Aadhaar number. The rule will be applicable across India except Jammu and Kashmir, Meghalaya and Assam. Further, the cook-cum-helpers working under the scheme would also be required to furnish their Aadhaar number.
