MDM halt in Athagarh school irks parents

PNS
The midday meal (MDM) for students of the Radhashyampur Primary School here has been stopped for over a week, alleged parents.
They complained that though the Government is regularly providing midday meal to students in schools everywhere, still their wards are being deprived of the benefit. 
When contacted, school headmaster Ananda Chandra Behera informed that even after intimating the BRCC and CRCC about nil stock of rice, his school has not yet been supplied with fresh rations resulting in a halt in the MDM preperation.
However, DI of Schools said that he is looking into the matter and would definitely take action against the officers if any discrepancy is 
found.
