The Assam government has sanctioned ₹11.3 crore to restore Anganwadi centres affected by recent floods. These centres play a critical role in providing nutrition, health, and early education services to children and mothers.
The flood damage disrupted these essential services, prompting the state to allocate funds for swift rehabilitation and repair of the affected infrastructure. Restoring the centres ensures continuity of welfare programmes vital for vulnerable populations.
Officials stated that the funding will be used to repair buildings, replace damaged equipment, and replenish supplies. This move demonstrates the government’s commitment to mitigating flood impacts on social welfare.
With the restoration underway, Anganwadi centres in flood-hit areas are expected to resume normal operations soon, helping safeguard the health and development of children and women dependent on these services.
