“Atal Canteen will become the soul of Delhi, a place where no one should have to sleep hungry,” the chief minister said at the launch event.

Each canteen will serve two meals a da, lunch from 11 am to 4 pm and dinner from 6:30 pm to 9:30 pm, catering to around 500 people daily. The Rs 5 thali will include dal, rice, chapati, a seasonal vegetable and pickle.
