On the other hand, the salary of the employees working on the Jagannanna Gorumuddha scheme has been increased from Rs 1,000 to Rs 3,000, which would add a burden of Rs 344 crore to the government. A four-pronged system was also established to improve the quality of the lunch. Three members of the school development committee have been entrusted with the responsibility to monitor the quality of education while the RDO level officer supervises the works of the scheme.
