The government starts the 5 centers of Shiv Bhojan in the city | Nagpur updatesNagpur updates:-The state government has introduced five Shiv Bhojan centers to provide Rs10 lunch per plate for the poor. Three of the five Shiv Bhojan centers in the vicinity of government-run hospitals have been opened to provide nominally delicious lunches for families of patients.

District Food and Civil Supply Officer Bhaskar Tayade told that the Shiv Bhojan centers were opened at Daga Hospital, Matru Sewa Sangh’s Maternity Home in Central Nagpur, RST Cancer Hospital in Tukadoji Putla Square, MSRTC Bus in Ganeshpeth and APMC Market in Kalamna.

“Four were opened on 26 January and the remaining one on 30 January. Lunch will take place between 12:00 and 14:00 at the rate of Rs10 per plate agreed by the Government. The self-help group and the organizations operating the Shiv Bhojan centers will recover Rs10 from the beneficiary. The government will give Rs40 per plate on its hand, as total expenditure on one plate is Rs50, “he said.

The District Food and Civil Supply Department under the Collector’s Office is the nodal agency for the scheme. As per the Government Directive, the SHG / agency in charge of the Shiv Bhojan center will have to provide two chapatis, a vegetable curry, dal, and rice. The menu would change on a daily basis and be dictated by the government.

The center will operate on an app developed by the government. The SHG / agency will receive instructions on the device’s daily menu. For three months, the government has set up five centers on a pilot basis. Considering the experience of the pilot project, the government is likely to increase the timing of the centers as well as the number of Shiv Bhojan centers in the city.

Shiv Sena MP from Ramtek Krupal Tumane opened the center at the Matru Sewa Sangh Hospital. He praised the scheme launched by CM Uddhav Thackeray. He also made some suggestions for further development at the centre.

NCP City President Anil Ahirkar dedicated the Shiv Bhojan center to the public at the Daga Hospital. He, along with a bunch of friends, lauded the government’s noble gesture. Yuva Zep Pratishtan, led by Mayor Sandip Joshi, initiated the Deendayal Lunch Box schemes at the Government Medical College and Hospital (GMCH) and two more locations where families of patients have also had lunch at Rs10 since 2017.
