The incumbent Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh, Yogi Adityanath, now surprised everyone with his new schemes on food. It somehow appears like Yogi is following the footsteps of demise Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu, J Jayalalithaa. It has been barely a month and Yogi has already embedded many new schemes that are transparently helping in uplifting the lifestyle of people.

At the inception, there were various sources that criticized Yogi for being so much rightist and even went forward targeting his Saffron appearance. However, his new thoughts on the food schemes for the underprivileged people is quite though provoking and must be appreciated.

Yogi named the new scheme as ‘Annapurna Bhojanalya’ and the main motto of this scheme is to make sure that everyone in the state will eat twice a day. According to this, the breakfast such as Idli Sambhar, Porridge, and Poha with tea will be served for Rs 3, and lunch would include dal, rice, vegetables, and chapatis for Rs 5.

And it is assumed at the moment that Annapurna Bhojanalyas will be set up across all 14 municipal corporations of UP and will work under a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) format, beginning at UP’s prominent cities like Lucknow, Kanpur, Ghaziabad, and Gorakhpur.

The CM has already been on rolls for making some shocking decisions like cracking down illegal slaughter houses and setting up an ‘Anti-Romeo Squad’ to decrease eve-teasing. However, his biggest initiative was to waive farm loans in the state, for a value of around Rs 36,359 crore, for everyone’s good.
