AMMA MESS - GOVERNMENT SUBSIDIZED FOOD
IDLI - 1 RE
SAMBAR RICE - 5 RS
CURD RICE -5 RS
Amma Unavagam (meaning "Mother Restaurant" in Tamil) is a food subsidization program run by the Government of Tamil Nadu in India. "Amma" means mother in Tamil but clearly here refers to Chief Minister Ms. J. Jayalalithaa, who introduced this restaurant concept aimed at helping the very poor sections of the society. By convention she is seldom mentioned by her name in the party and government circles but is reverentially referred to as "amma."

Under the scheme, municipal corporations of the state run canteens serving subsidized food at low prices
