Mysuru: The much-hyped ‘Upahara Bhagya’ (Breakfast scheme) mooted by Mysuru City Corporation (MCC) a year ago to provide morning breakfast to 2,300 Pourakarmikas engaged in cleaning work is yet to take off owing to policy issues. The MCC had announced that it would start serving breakfast to Pourakarmikas from Feb. 2017.
With cleanliness taking the topmost priority in city, the role of Pourakarmikas in achieving the same cannot be quantified. Hence, the MCC came out with a good scheme to provide breakfast to the Pourakarmikas to energise them, but unfortunately, the proposal seems to be still on the paper.
