‘Give Vijay more time’: Prakash Raj urges patience in assessing Tamil Nadu CM

The Tamil Nadu government has announced plans to introduce chicken biryani as an option in mid-day meals for students in government schools, following a pilot phase. School Education Minister Rajmohan Arumugam stated that the decision will depend on factors such as hygiene, food safety, and logistics. Tamil Nadu Chief Minister C Joseph Vijay will launch the expanded Perunthalaivar Kamarajar Breakfast scheme for students of classes VI to VIII on September 22.

The minister emphasized that even prisoners in jails receive chicken biryani, suggesting that students should also have access to this meal if hygiene and safety standards are met. The initiative aims to offer a diverse menu while addressing nutritional needs, with a pilot project planned to evaluate the feasibility of the expansion. A decision on launching the expanded scheme was made during a meeting chaired by Vijay.
