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

“Expand Akshay Patra wherever possible to provide hygienic, fresh Mid-Day meals to government and aided schools in a phased manner.”

Our Assessment

Uttarakhand's PM-POSHAN system exists, and a 2018-19 official PM-POSHAN work plan recorded the state's decision to engage Akshaya Patra for centralized kitchens in urban areas of Dehradun, Haridwar, Nainital and Udham Singh Nagar. However, I did not verify a post-2022 phased expansion to government and aided schools wherever possible. This is partial because the partner model exists but manifesto-period expansion is not proven. Budget status: PM-POSHAN funding exists, but no promise-specific Akshaya Patra expansion allocation was isolated.
