Section 5(5)(iv) in Gujarat Elementary Education Rules, 2010
(iv)Where schools provide midday meals to children on payment basis, Government will reimburse cost for the special category children (whose regular fees are being reimbursed), to the extent of government expenditure per child in the Mid-day Meal Scheme. Where the unaided school does not have a scheme for mid day meals and children bring food from home or buy it in canteen, Department should encourage special category children to bring food from home and reimburse cost to parents on the same scale as mid day meal program.
