Explanation
In the given scenario, the management of School M has decided to provide free breakfast to all students in its primary section through its canteen, even without government funding. Based on this information, we can identify the following courses of action: (I) The school will have to admit many poor students who will seek admission for the next academic year. - This course of action is not directly related to the decision of providing free breakfast. (II) The canteen facilities and utensils have to be checked, and new purchases have to be made to equip it properly. - This course of action is reasonable and necessary to ensure that the canteen is able to provide free breakfast to all students. Checking the facilities and purchasing necessary items would be required to support this initiative. (III) Funds will have to be raised to support the scheme for years to come. - Since the school will not receive any government grant for providing free breakfast, it would need to arrange funds from other sources to sustain this scheme in the long run. Raising funds is a logical course of action to support the initiative. Therefore, only course of action (II) and (III) follow, making option A the correct answer.
