Further instructions were given to all Regional Joint Director of School Education and the District Educational Officers in the State with regard to pre-dispatch inspections of Egg go-downs and monitoring the supply of Eggs as per conditions of the Agreement made with the suppliers regularly.
During the inspections conducted by Third Party inspection teams across the State and feedback received through various sources regarding supply of farm fresh Eggs to Schools/ Anganwadi Centres, the following observations are noticed:-
The Third Party Teams and other District officials recommended strongly to supply eggs to the schools at least four times in a month to avoid health issues to the children
The very aim of the Government is to provide farm fresh quality eggs directly from farms to the door step of Schools to provide adequate nutrition to the students/children.
The Government has observed the findings of Third Party teams and feedback from officials and took serious note of the above issues in the supply of Eggs.
Hence, the Government have observed the fact that all care has been already taken to release the bills to the suppliers well in time so as to avoid hardships to the suppliers and to ensure timely and quality supply, but it was noted that main objective of the supply of quality eggs in time to ensure daily nutrition to children was not fully achieved despite spending huge budget from the State exchequer additionally.
Hence, the Government has given directions for introducing alternatives to eggs in the menu if the supplies are irregular and erratic and directed to ensure supply eggs to schools four times in a month instead of three times.
Also, the Government has given instructions to strictly enforce the provisions made with regard to supply of small size eggs, non stamped eggs, delay in supply, rotten eggs etc., and take action against the defaulters including against the HMs who do not reject such eggs.
The Government took note on the issues in providing indents intime to the suppliers for supply of eggs, as informed in the meeting held by the Special Chief Secretary to Govt., School Education and the Principal Secretary to Govt., Women and Child Welfare Department on 10.10.2022 and instructed the officials to give indents in time without fail.
The Government has also given instructions for intensive inspections by Third Party Teams in ensuing weeks to avoid health issues to the children and to ensure quality nutrition in the form of eggs to the Students in time.
The Government has thus decided that if the objective of providing eggs is not realized, Egg alternatives would replace the eggs in the menu completely to ensure daily recommended nutrition to the children.
Therefore, the suppliers of Eggs to School points for the year 2022-23 are directed to :-
S. | Period of | Indent to be | Indent to be given to Supplier by MEO/APM | Delivery | Marking |
