Mid day meal needs review by Sdos and Bdos

During my field visits to few schools last week in Ausgram1 tribal areas,  I am disappointed to find that project monitoring and supervision is being done in a mechanical way without much improvement and follow up at the Institution level. Following points needs to be looked into by all Sdos and Bdos through one to one review with their office staff and officers :-
1. Food grains stock and release to school must be reworked based on actual consumption as per quarterly trend and accordingly adjust allotments in such a way that food grains for not more than three months are stocked at any school.
2. Identify schools with less than 75 percent student taking MDM and organise awareness meetings with the help of NGOs or social organisations.
3. District will start courier service to deliver copies of allotments and release orders of food grains as well as funds to individual schools so that they get it in time.  Sdos and Bdos may accordingly assign the job to courier and payment can be done from MME funds.
4. Since MIS on web portal is not at all satisfactory,  engage outsourced agency for one time data entry and thereafter let block supervisors update monthly reports. All MIS for schools, use of software etc must be in place by 15th March 2013. Sdos and Bdos has to ensure this through what ever strategy they want. Funds will not be any problem. Sdos to post one Dy Magistrate to be OC MDM.
5. All construction works of kitchen sheds must commence without any further delay and photographs od complete units be sent to OC MDM.
6. Sdo and bdos must sit half an hour in a week with their team and follow up.
7. Keep in touch with schools and convince them to feed all kids.
8. Please see that all compliance of Right to free and compulsory education are ensured by 31st March 2013.
