Issues to be discussed

19

The present norm for the honorarium for cook cum helpers is too low. The Government of Gujarat made provision of Rs. 45.32 crore in 2014-15 as matching contribution for Rs. 500 rise in the honorarium for each Cook cum Helpers. However the said benefit could not be given due to non approval of increase in honorarium by Government of India.

20

Honorarium to Cook cum Helpers

The design of present kitchen shed is not modern and not conducive for large number. It is therefore proposed to modernize 1000 existing MDM kitchen sheds in schools having 500 or more students.

wet masala grinder, S.S tilting pan, S.S tilting bulk cooker, S.S steamer, 3 range burner, working platform and storage

The project cost also includes training of cook cum helper and quarterly maintenance contract for 3 years

Estimated cost is Rs.45.00 crore @ Rs.4.5 Lac per MDM Center, shared 75:25 by Center and State
