KEY POINTS
Anganwadi Services Scheme is a centrally sponsored scheme implemented by the States / UTs as per the guidelines/instructions issued by Government of India.
Status of Anganwadi centres (AWC)
· According to government data, the country has 13.77 lakh AWCs.
· ICDS beneficiaries do register for services but because the anganwadis lack adequate facilities, they turn to paid options.
· AWCs clearly do not provide the environment that encourages parents to leave children at these centres.
· Only a limited number of AWCs have good facilities like creche, and recreational and learning facilities for pre-school education.
Measures taken
· To strengthen the monitoring of Anganwadi Services Scheme ICDS-Rapid Reporting System (RRS) has also been introduced for capturing the data of AWCs online.
· Under POSHAN Abhiyaan Smart Phones are provided to Supervisors and Anganwadi workers to provide online data.
· The Government of India has recently enhanced the honorarium of Anganwadi Workers (AWWs) at main-Anganwadi Centres (AWCs)
Need of the hour
· Creation of infrastructure to upscale the standards of all its services.
· States have much to learn from each other’s experiences.
· Anganwadi centres must cater to the needs of the community and the programme’s workers.
