Two Anganwadi workers in Karnataka's Koppal district have been suspended after a video showing them taking back eggs from children's plates during a midday meal went viral. The incident occurred in Gundur village, where Anganwadi worker Lakshmi and assistant Shahnaz Begum were caught on camera removing eggs from the plates of children immediately after distributing them, following a photo session. The video sparked outrage, leading to swift action from Lakshmi Hebbalkar, Minister of Women and Child Welfare, who ordered their suspension and requested a detailed report on the incident. The minister emphasised the importance of providing nutritious food and quality education to children, condemning the actions of the workers.
