We thank the @asercentre for providing access to ASER 2018 raw data.

We had called for an in-kind provision of midday meals for long and welcome this step by the government.

E.g. see our post from April on this: https://t.co/clIIzDB1dh

[ANI @ANI]

Bihar Education Department instructs senior district education officers to provide 8 kg ration and Rs 358 to children studying in Class 1-5 and 12 kg ration and Rs 536 to students of Class 6-8 under Midday Meal Scheme for May, June and July 2020.

Only 37% of government school students in Bihar have access to a📺 or a 📱(smartphone). In Kerala, the number is 96%.
