The scheme was launched in 1995 with the goal of improving nutrition and increasing school attendance.<\/p>\n<p>The MDMS has been shown to be effective in achieving both of these goals. Studies have shown that students who participate in the MDMS are more likely to attend school regularly and have better nutritional outcomes. The scheme has also been credited with reducing child labor, as children are less likely to work when they are guaranteed a nutritious meal at school.<\/p>\n<p>The MDMS is a successful program that has made a significant impact on the lives of millions of children in India. It is an important part of the government&#8217;s efforts to improve education and reduce poverty.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some additional details about each of the options:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Improving nutrition:<\/strong> The MDMS provides students with a nutritious meal that they might not otherwise have access to. This can help to improve their overall health and well-being.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Increasing school attendance:<\/strong> Studies have shown that students who participate in the MDMS are more likely to attend school regularly. This is likely due to the fact that they are guaranteed a nutritious meal at school, which can help to improve their concentration and motivation.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Reducing child labor:<\/strong> The MDMS has been credited with reducing child labor, as children are less likely to work when they are guaranteed a nutritious meal at school. This is because they are better able to focus on their studies and have less need to supplement their family income.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[amp_mcq option1=&#8221;Improving nutrition&#8221;
