All India Democratic Students Organisation has urged the government to immediately withdraw the circular issued reducing the number of eggs under the Mid-Day Meal (MDM) programme.

In a statement issued to media, the Organisation said that there cannot be excuses in providing such basic necessities citing fund crunch. "We also appeal to all well-meaning people, academicians, and parents to mount pressure on the government to continue all schemes, which provide basic facilities to poor children, including serving egg," reads the statement.
