The Rajasthan government, led by Chief Minister Bhajan Lal Sharma, renamed the Indira Rasoi Yojana to Shri Annapurna Rasoi Yojana on Saturday.
The scheme, initiated by the previous Ashok Gehlot-led Congress government, provides meals at subsidized rates.
As per an order by the state's Local Self Government Department, the per plate weight in the 'Shri Annapurna Rasoi Yojana' has been increased to 600 gm, reported ANI.
The government grant payable per plate has also been raised to Rs 22 from Rs 17, according to the order.
However, the beneficiary's contribution of Rs 8 per plate will remain unchanged. The order also mentioned directives to update the name on all hoardings and online portals.
Launched in August 2020 with the tagline 'no one should sleep hungry', the Indira Rasoi Yojana aims to provide nutritious food for just Rs 8 to poor and needy individuals.
