New Delhi, Oct 8 (DWNN): Attending as the capacity of chief guest at RSS organised Dussera function, HCL founder-chairman Shiv Nadar narrates an incident about his daughter, "My daughter is involved in this project (Shiksha). She did something that you won't like. She forced them (children in schools) to eat chicken for their protein intake. Children in western parts of Uttar Pradesh are generally short. There is need for better nutrition. People in those parts generally don't eat rice. They have rotis. However, you can only have it when it is fresh out of the fire. You can't store it and have it cold.", according to the News 18 report.

He added that his team also found that the average income in an agriculture household is just Rs 6,400 per month. “With a family size of five, that is less than Rs 1,300 per individual per month. Also, livelihood opportunities in rural India beyond agriculture are far and few,” he said.

News 18 website reported that, HCL founder-chairman Shiv Nadar on Tuesday said the government alone could not take the country to the next level and asked all stakeholders to pitch-in for solving the problems and challenges being faced by the nation.
