    SUMMARY The High Court of Chhattisgarh has been monitoring a Suo Moto Public Interest Litigation (WPPIL No. 75 of 2023) regarding malnutrition in Anganwadi centers and food safety in schools. The court has passed multiple orders addressing deficiencies in Anganwadi Centers, recurring incidents of food contamination in mid-day meal schemes, and infrastructure inadequacies. Several corrective measures have been implemented including suspensions of officials found negligent, replacement of Self Help Groups, compensation of Rs. 25,000-50,000 to affected students, initiation of a centralized kitchen system, and issuance of comprehensive food safety guidelines by the Chief Secretary. The matter remains pending with continuous monitoring required. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
