The scheme aims to provide nutritious food at low cost to poor families from rural areas who come to the city for work.
MP: The government is set to open 45 new Deendayal Antyodaya Rasoi Kendras under the Deen Dayal Antyodaya Rasoi Yojana, which aims to provide nutritious food at affordable rates to poor urban families. The proposal has been prepared by the Urban Development and Housing Department and includes 25 mobile centers and 20 permanent centers. Additionally, one kitchen center each will be operated in places of religious importance and industrial towns like Mandideep and Pithampur. The scheme will prioritize mobile centers in big cities and institutions that voluntarily want to provide food at these centers will be linked to the scheme. The scheme is aimed at providing food to poor families coming from villages to cities for work as laborers. Currently, there are 52 kitchen centers operating in 104 districts of the state, including six religious cities of Maihar, Amarkantak, Maheshwar, Omkareshwar, Chitrakoot, and Orchha.
