Annapoorani Scheme

At Agurchand Manmull Jain College, student wellbeing is central to our mission. The Annapoorani Scheme is a flagship welfare initiative that provides free meal and snack for students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, ensuring that hunger is never a barrier to education.

The scheme supports:

• First-generation learners
• Daily commuters from remote areas
• Students engaged in full-day academic and co-curricular activities

Students apply to the scheme by submitting the Annapoorani Application Form to their class-in-charge. Beneficiaries are identified through a review process involving the class-in-charge and Head of the Department, followed by an informal interview with the Annapoorani Scheme Coordinator. This ensures that support reaches students with genuine need while maintaining a compassionate and discreet approach.

To remain eligible, students are expected to maintain regular attendance and academic engagement.

Meals and snacks for Rs.70 per day per beneficiary are provided during academic hours through the college canteen, allowing students to stay nourished, focused, and engaged throughout the day.

The scheme is entirely funded by the college management and reflects AMJC’s enduring values of compassion, inclusion, and shared responsibility.

By ensuring access to daily nourishment, the Annapoorani Scheme empowers students to pursue their academic goals with dignity and confidence.
