  Police in India have charged a school principal and her husband with murder after 23 children died from eating their school meal. The children, aged between 4 and 12, fell ill on July 16 after their midday meal was contaminated with pesticide. The poisoning took place at a village primary school in the Saran district of northeastern Bihar state. Children suffered from stomach cramps and vomiting after eating the food. A forensic report later showed the oil the food was cooked in contained the pesticide monocrotophos at very high levels. The World Health Organisation said it had asked India to ban the toxic substance as far back as 2009. The tragedy sparked local protests and started a national debate about the world's largest school meals programme, where preparation is often unhygienic. Despite concerns, the lunches are hugely popular with poor families and authorities see them as a way of increasing school attendance and fighting malnourishment.
