The Vadodara Municipal Corporation's (VMC) Standing Committee has approved the restart of enriched flavoured milk delivery to Anganwadi children.
During the Covid-19 epidemic in 2020, the distribution was halted.
The ICDS department requested approval and a Rs 1.93 crore budget to offer fortified milk to 10,120 children at VMC Anganwadi six days a week.
Originally, milk was planned to be delivered twice a week, but it will now be delivered six days a week.
The fortified milk contains Vitamin D and Vitamin A and will be given to each child attending the Anganwadi, with a possibility of 200 ml if there's a health requirement.
The proposal also seeks approval for making advance payments to Baroda dairy and Amul, which supply the fortified flavoured milk to around 436 Anganwadi in the city.
