This article on eggs is wonderful. I am INSPIRED to suggest a campaign in which every child participating in the Mid-Day Meals program has a right to an egg at every MDM meal. The program could be launched stated by state, in the order in which the state governments agree to participate. The system could be established under India’s right-to-food law, and the Aadhar system could be adapted to ensure that the obligation to provide the eggs are fulfilled.
o
The system could also be used to set up more small-scale producers to supply the eggs under standard contracts.
Plans could be made in advance for assessing the nutrition impacts through the same procedure in every participating state.
Perhaps INSPIRE could facilitate the planning conversation?
