Women and Child Development Minister Ramsheela Sahu on Monday said that if families take care of minor health issues of children then malnourishment can be eliminated soon.
The Infant Mortality Rate can be brought down if nutritious diet is provided. The message should be conveyed across the State, she said while addressing the World Bank sponsored training programme titled ‘’ Sattu Seekh Prakriya’’ in the city.
A blueprint should be prepared to eliminate malnourishment before schedule. The World Bank is aiding the project in 17 districts to check deficiencies .
The training session is focusing on twelve points like looking after pregnant women, infants, breastfeeding and identifying malnourished infants.
The training session is being conducted by Sharad Chaturvedi and Dr Sanjeev Daulatrao. They had been deputed by the Central government.
