A fish and rice meal for just Rs.5

The Chief Minister also said that his government has decided to provide fish and rice meals twice a week at a subsidized rate of Rs 5 in 400 special canteens across Bengal. He said that the West Bengal government would also set up an AYUSH department separate from the health department.

This declaration is considered important in the background of upcoming political and social schemes, which are said to be aimed at providing economic support to women and providing affordable food for common people. Especially women from economically weaker sections can benefit from this scheme.

According to this proposal, financial assistance can be deposited directly into the bank account of eligible women. On the other hand, the plan to provide fish-rice meal at a low price has created interest among the citizens as it is linked to the food culture of West Bengal. There is a lot of discussion about this announcement in the political circles and it is considered as an important decision in view of the upcoming elections. However, a clear picture of the scheme will emerge only after the implementation, eligibility criteria and official details come out.
