Officials have identified at least 250 persons suffering from nutritional deficiency in four mandals. The officials have completed recruiting the Anganwadi workers in respect of 20 Anganwadi centers. In respect of seven centers, there were no qualified candidates. Authorities who filtered the applications forwarded the file to the District Collector Omar Jaleel. He is yet to affix his signature on the relevant file.
After putting the signature, appointment orders would be issued to the successful candidates. Over 4045 children are being given Balamrutam, a nutritional supplement. Similarly, 1285 pregnant women and 1425 lactating mothers are being provided with nutritious lunch. For want of Anganwadi workers, the Arogya Lakshmi scheme could not be implemented effectively.
However, the officials have taken up the remedial measures and asking the Anganwadi workers to pay special attention to the health of villagers. Several have been appealing to the authorities to intensify inspections blaming them to be not punctual in their functioning. They also appeal to authorities to fill the vacancies of Anganwadi supervisors.
