‘Nutri Pulao’ to Replace ‘Upma’

Currently, children aged 03 to 06 years at Anganwadi centers receive ‘Upma Premix’ as part of the Hot Cooked Meal (HCM) program. After tasting the newly developed ‘Nutri Pulao Premix’ sample, the Deputy Chief Minister noted that it is well-suited to the tastes of children and aligns with Rajasthan’s culinary background.

Expressing her satisfaction, the Deputy Chief Minister directed the ICDS (Integrated Child Development Services) Directorate to take the necessary steps to include Nutri Pulao in the children’s diet as soon as possible.

Improvements in Breakfast Options

The Deputy Chief Minister also offered significant suggestions regarding the breakfast provided at Anganwadi centers. She instructed CONFED to propose better, more nutritious alternatives to the currently served ‘Murmura’ (puffed rice). She emphasized that these changes must be implemented within the existing price rates to avoid any additional burden on the government budget.

Focus on Quality and Nutrition

The government’s primary objective is to provide children with delicious, home-style, and highly nutritious meals. Senior officials from the Women and Child Development Department were also present during the inspection. This initiative reflects the government’s commitment to combating malnutrition and fostering the physical and mental development of children across the state.
