Earlier, a tiny dead snake was allegedly found in a packet distributed under the mid-day meal scheme meant for children aged between six months and three years at an ‘Anganwadi’ or a government-run nursery school in western Maharashtra’s Sangli district, prompting the authorities to launch a probe.
The incident was reported by the parents of a child in Palus on Monday, said Anandi Bhosale, Vice-President of the State Anganwadi Workers’ Union. Calling it a “serious” incident, Congress leader and Palus-Kadegaon MLA Vishwajeet Kadam raised the issue in the state legislative assembly in the ongoing monsoon session. He demanded a detailed probe into the incident and action against those responsible for it. District officials said the child’s parents disposed of the dead snake after photographing it and sent the image to the local anganwadi sevika (worker).
