Anganwadi Centres
The Anganwadi Services Scheme has an in-built monitoring system since its inception to track the physical progress of the scheme in respect of various input process, output and impact indicators through regular collection of monthly/ quarterly reports maintained in a standardized Management Information System (MIS). An ICT enabled platform named Poshan Tracker has been designed to capture realtime data on implementation and monitoring of Anganwadi Services across the country.
In addition, in order to strengthen the performance of Anganwadi Services Scheme, Government has a 5-tier monitoring & review mechanism at National/State/District/Block and Anganwadi levels for monitoring the status of Anganwadi centres.
State/UT-wise details of sanctioned & operational Anganwadi Centres across the country including Haryana is at Annexure-I.
State/UT-wise funds released to States/UTs including Haryana during last three years and current financial year is at Annexure-II.
Anganwadi Services Scheme is a universal scheme implemented across the country covering all habitats of the country including all backward districts.
