Our Assessment

Fulfilled for the Annapoorna canteen component. The Government of Goa notified Mukhyamantri Annapurna Yojana on 2023-10-05 for Women Self Help Groups to run canteens or provide catering services for government departments, corporations, agencies, autonomous bodies, institutions and boards. The Gazette says Women SHGs must provide freshly cooked, hygienic and nutritious food at affordable prices. The first canteen under the scheme was inaugurated at FDA, Bambolim in January 2024, operated by Om Shree Ganesh Self-help Group. The 2025 Governor's Address says 157 SHGs had been empanelled under the scheme and 9 SHGs were running canteens up to November 2024. This directly delivers the women-SHG Annapoorna canteen component.
