The Prime Minister POSHAN scheme, or PM-POSHAN, was launched on Wednesday by the Centre, which said that it will invest Rs 1,30,795 crore over the next five years to provide one prepared hot meal in government and government-aided schools. The initiative will take the place of the current national program for school lunches, known as the Mid-day Meal Scheme.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi presided over a meeting of the Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs (CCEA) that made the decision.

Students in pre-primary or Balvatikas at government and government-aided primary schools would be eligible for the program. These pupils were previously excluded from the program. Nutritional gardens in schools will also be promoted by the government.
