A total of **7,213 students from 78 schools** under the Subang Jaya City Council (MBSJ) jurisdiction are receiving nutritional assistance this year through the Selangor Nutrition Programme (NutriSel).

The programme was highlighted during a symbolic handover ceremony at **SMK Puchong** , where **322 students out of 1,796 enrolled students** are receiving meals across the morning and afternoon sessions.

NutriSel runs from **August to October** and is intended to help ease the financial burden on lower-income families while providing students with sufficient nutrition to support concentration and learning.

The programme targets primary and secondary school students from **B40 households earning below RM2,000 per month** , particularly those who do not receive assistance through the Supplementary Food Programme.

For 2026, the Selangor government has allocated **RM14.4 million** for NutriSel, covering **962 selected schools** and an estimated **106,000 students statewide**.

The initiative is jointly implemented by the Selangor State Economic Planning Unit, local authorities, Selangor Education Department and Selangor Islamic Religious Department.

**For families in Puchong, the programme provides targeted food assistance to eligible students while supporting their nutritional needs during the school year.**
