Mr. Birendra Sinha, Manager, NBJK Head Office (Bahera, Chouparan), informed that due to Diwali and Chhath Puja holidays, the schools remained closed for several days, and attendance was lower than usual. Despite this, the initiative ensured that enrolled children received wholesome meals.

He added that students were served sprouted gram or green gram with milk for breakfast and rice, pulses, and vegetables for lunch. On Saturdays, as per local tradition, they enjoyed khichdi-chokha.

This initiative reflects NBJK’s and Zomato’s shared commitment to promoting child health and education through nutritious food support in rural schools.
