New Delhi, Oct 21 Delhi Women and Child Development (WCD) Minister Atishi on Saturday interacted with Anganwadi workers and helpers of Patparganj Project to understand and improve Anganwadi centers.
She said that whether it's raising awareness among pregnant women or providing better nutrition and quality education to children, the Anganwadi centers are doing outstanding work in every field.
While interacting with the WCD Minister, Anganwadi workers said: "We engage in discussions with parents from time-to-time to ensure that every child coming to the Anganwadi centers receives good education and better nutrition. They also shared how they are raising awareness among pregnant women with unique initiatives like the Mahila Mandal.”
