There is a need to improve access to child health services. The Ministry of Health is focusing on promoting child health through appropriate interventions. Presently, the Department of School Education and Literacy, MHRD addresses the nutritional needs of school going children in the age group of 6-14 years through the Mid- Day Meal (MDM) Scheme. The Integrated Child Development Scheme (ICDS) under WCD also addresses the issues of child health. There is, however, a need to synergize the multi-sectoral interventions taken by the relevant GOI Ministries. The existing schemes need to be examined for their outcomes and impediments in implementation, including those of coordination. This theme seeks views and suggestions on how to ensure greater focus on child through improvements in existing schemes and suggest new holistic interventions.

Greater emphasis should be given to Health Education from primary level.Most of the children suffering from ill health only because of not doing Hand Wash properly.Health records of every child should be maintained in all schools to track the child health.Nutritious food must be supplied by the government itself up to secondary level.Monthly health checkups, Follow up of ill healthy children, supply of first aid kit and medicines and Free treatment should be taken up.

मध्याह्न भोजन योजना बच्चों के स्वास्थ्य के लिए लागू की गई थी किंतु कुछ ग्रामीण क्षेत्रों के अतिरिक्त अन्य क्षेत्रों में यह योजना बच्चों के मानसिक-विकास का रोड़ा और सम्बंधितों के लिए बवाल साबित हुई है।आवश्यकता है....इसके स्वरूप परिवर्तन की-अच्छा होगा कि बच्चों को गुड़+मूँगफली,बिस्किट्स,चने या इस तरह की अन्यवस्तुएँ दी जाएँ।

The teachers should advise their children to take nece
