Karnataka Government has launched __________ scheme to meet nutritional needs of pregnant and lactating women in rural areas of the State.
Answer: A
The scheme is Mathru Poorna.
Mathru Poorna, launched by the Karnataka government on 2 October 2017, provides one full hot meal a day at anganwadi centres to pregnant and lactating women in rural areas, along with supplements, to tackle anaemia and low birth weight. Women eat the meal at the anganwadi, which also lets workers track their health.
The mid-day meal scheme feeds schoolchildren, not mothers. Udisha is a training programme for anganwadi workers under the ICDS. Since Mathru Poorna fits exactly, 'None of the above' is wrong.
