The National Program for Nutritional Support, popularly nown as the midday meal scheme, was started in 1995. Coo ed midday meals were to be introduced in all government primary schools within two years. In the interim, state governme nts were permitted to distribute dry rations monthly to children instead, until arrangements were made to provide coo ed meals.

In several states, the midday meal s were discontinued in 1997 not because they distracted students and teachers fro m the tas of learning, but actually because the food grains were diverted for other uses and were revived only after the Supreme Court order. Worldwide, several countries provide free school lunches. The program was first started in Japan in the late 1800 s by a private school to help the impoverished children of the Yamagata prefecture. In 1938, Brazil launched a national school feeding program and in 1946, the United States passed the National School Lunch Act to provide free midday meals because a number of draftees had failed physica ls during World War II due to poor nutrition.
