We had Anganwadi but it didn’t open regularly neither kids were given any nutritious food, says Usha didi to Shatali Shedmake from Birpur village in Jawa tehsil, Rewa district in Madhya Pradesh. We then reported it on Swara on 4th April 2015 and within a month anganwadi has began to operate on regular basis and children are also provided food. We are happy because our kids can access Anganwadi regularly and thank all listeners who called officers to put pressure. For more Shatali@9479003196.
