The meals will be directly provided by the government authorities and there is no registration required to be done by the students.

Objective Of The Scheme

The Tamil Nadu government has created the Tamil Nadu CM Breakfast Scheme for the first time in the state because breakfast is one of the most essential meals of the day and many of the children who are coming to government school do not take breakfast due to poverty. Children will be provided with the meal so that they can continue the rest of the day with energy and also learn more. Children who will get to school early in the morning will be excited to get breakfast through the development of this scheme and the students will be less angry and more active. The program will be created in order to provide breakfast for up to class 5th students currently pursuing education in Government schools in the Tamil Nadu state. 33.56 billion rupees have been allocated in order to provide proper breakfast to all of the children.
