மதிய உணவுத் திட்டம் | PM POSHAN vs State Schemes | TNPSC Group 1 Current Affairs | Veranda IAS

In this video, Fatima Babu from Veranda IAS analyzes a critical current affairs topic for the TNPSC Group 1 (Preliminary & Mains) exams: the Mid-Day Meal Scheme and the PM POSHAN initiative. We dive into the recent debates surrounding nutrition in schools, specifically focusing on the scientific basis of child nutrition versus ideological food choices. Using a recent editorial from Dinamani and news from West Bengal as a starting point, we explore how school meals are a vital social investment for improving health, attendance, and social justice. What you will learn: The evolution of the Mid-Day Meal Scheme in Tamil Nadu (1956 to present). A deep dive into PM POSHAN and its national objectives. Key Constitutional Articles (21, 21A, 39F, 47) related to child welfare and nutrition. Essential data from NFHS-5 on stunting and anemia. Strategic insights for Group 1 Mains: Nutrition as Human Capital and Food Security. Stay tuned to understand why the focus of school feeding programs must remain anchored in medical science and child well-being for a true welfare state.
