The Karnataka government has decided to include eggs in mid-day meals in at least seven districts of the state. This means that students of Classes 1-8 in government and government-aided schools in these districts will be served boiled eggs along with their meals.

Ballari, Bidar, Kalaburagi, Koppal, Raichur, Vijayapura, and Yadgir in North Karnataka are the districts that will benefit from this scheme, the full cost of which will be borne by the central government.
