Krishnagar, July 22: A slightly varied menu and a promise of fish in the future has brought back to school many Nadia children who had grown tired of khichdi and dropped out.
The khichdi and an insipid dal had become a primary school staple as prices of essentials rose and the schools struggled to cope.
Before the inflation demon hit double digits, the children ate fish, dal, chutney and fried potatoes and that was what drew them to school.
