Maa Scheme

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has launched 'Maa' scheme to provide healthy meals at a nominal price of Rs 5/meal to poor people. The scheme launched ahead of assembly polls provisions to offer budget meal from 1 pm-3 pm daily through kitchens operated by self-help groups. Christened after the TMC’s slogan of ‘Ma, Mati, Manush’, the scheme will provide rice, dal, vegetable, and egg curry.
