Hyderabad, Oct. 4

THE British Minister for School Standards, Mr David Miliband, will be in Hyderabad on Wednesday, to participate in a series of education related activities, especially focussed on school initiatives.

Mr Miliband will visit, what is said to be the world's largest kitchen to see first-hand the operation of mid-day meal scheme that provides 150,000 meals to elementary school children in around 900 schools.

The project is being run by the Hyderabad-based, non-Governmental organisation, the Naandi Foundation at Uppal.

The British Minster is also expected to visit Bala Jyoti, a primary school to see the public-private partnership in action under the `Power of Ten' initiative of the Naandi Foundation.

Later, he will attend a round-table discussion on education, to be chaired by Mr I.V. Subba Rao, Principal Secretary, School Education, Andhra Pradesh.

The `Power of Ten', project raises funds through small contributions of Rs 10 from thousands of employees.
