The campaign seeks to strengthen child nutrition, health, education and livestock management by ensuring regular supplementary nutrition for children aged 6 months to 6 years under the ICDS programme, improving measurement efficiency of children enrolled at Anganwadi Centres and increasing the percentage of operational Anganwadi Centres with functional toilets and access to drinking water.

The DDC emphasized the importance of community participation and coordinated efforts by officials to ensure effective implementation. She added, “The objective is to transform Thakrakote from an ‘aspirational’ block into an ‘inspirational’ model for other regions.”
She also lauded students for their performances and acknowledged the support of teachers and parents.
A plantation drive was also conducted, during which the DDC planted Terminalia arjuna saplings. Soil health cards and walnut saplings were also distributed among beneficiaries.
