Maharashtra's 'Shiv Bhojan' Scheme Faces Closure Due to Funding Delays

Maharashtra's 'Shiv Bhojan' Scheme Faces Closure Due to Funding Delays

The 'Shiv Bhojan' scheme in Maharashtra, which offers meals for Rs 10, might stop because the government isn't sending money.

This program feeds about 200,000 people every day and provides jobs for many others who run the meal centers.

Officials are worried about what will happen to the people who rely on these cheap meals if the scheme closes.

Unlike other programs, this one needed businesses to invest and set up their own centers.

Despite complaints, the government hasn't said what it will do.
