Delhi High Court has been informed by the city government that it released funds as food security allowance for children when schools were closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. At present, midday meals are provided to children in government schools as COVID-19 restrictions are no longer in force, the govt told the HC. Petitioner NGO Mahila Ekta Manch said the purpose of providing midday meals or food security allowance was to boost the immunity of poor children during the pandemic.
