What does this status mean?
Meaningful delivery has occurred, but the stated commitment is incomplete.
Status describes delivery. Confidence describes how strong the available evidence is.
Original manifesto wording
“We will launch 100 Annapurna canteens across the state to provide meals for ₹5, three times a day.”
Our Assessment
Gujarat opened 101 new Shramik Annapurna food-distribution centres on 16 October 2026, expanding a ₹5 meal service for registered construction workers and families. This is relevant delivery even under a worker-focused programme. The service predates the manifesto, and the new report does not establish three meals daily or access for the wider poor population. The complete canteen commitment remains partially delivered.
