A national program that currently provides a mid-day meal for schoolchildren will be doubled from the start of the next school term, Education Minister Susil Premajayantha said.

He said the ministry is currently providing a mid-day meal for 1.1 million schoolchildren.

The program was kicked off in January with the support of US AID, the World Food Program (WFP), and the government. (Chaturanga Pradeep Samarawickrama)
