Explanation
Solution
Welfare catering refers to providing food services as a form of social welfare, often at low or no cost, and typically in places like schools, creches, and dharmashalas. Mid day meals in schools, creches, and dharmashalas fall under welfare catering because they serve the community’s well-being. Chain catering organizations and wine bars are commercial enterprises and are not considered welfare catering.
