101 Anganwadi Hub Centres inaugurated

NEW DELHI: Deputy CM Manish Sisodia inaugurated 101 modern Anganwadi Hub Centres across Delhi, as part of reforms in the Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS) programme. Inaugurations of 100 other centres were done by the respective area MLAs.

"In continuation of our focus on Delhi's children, we recognise that care for children starts from the time when they are in their mother's wombs and the learning starts from the day they are born. Our 10,000 plus Anganwadi centres are the platform to provide this care and learning. The first 6 years, when our children are at our Aanganwadis, are the most critical years as the foundation of a healthy, happy and curious child, who is eager to learn, is laid in these years," Sisodia said.
