Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan said, “Children are the future of our country and healthy, educated and cultured children build a capable nation. Under the leadership of Prime Minister Modi, a “Mahayajna” is going on to build a glorious, prosperous, and powerful India. To ensure success to this endeavour it is necessary that our children remain perfectly healthy. Anganwadi is a platform to keep children healthy and well educated, giving them better values and to ensure their better growth. Anganwadi is not the responsibility of the government only. The government is mobilising resources. It is ensuring nutritious food. It is making arrangements. Society also has a responsibility in this endeavour. Me, you have a responsibility towards your children and therefore we have thought that the Anganwadi should not run by the Government alone, but society should also be associated with the government. For this purpose we have started ‘Adopt Anganwadi Campaign’.”
Chouhan said this in a message issued to the people of the State through media. He said that many people have adopted Anganwadis. But, why only a few people should adopt Anganwadis? Everyone should be associated with the Anganwadis. There is a need that proper nutritious food should be made available in Anganwadis, proper arrangements for education should be made and arrangements for sports should also be there. Today it is the need of the hour and keeping this in mind, I went out with a handcart in Bhopal to make proper arrangement of total resources for the Anganwadi and to connect our society to the Anganwadi. To collect toys and other materials for the children, people extended cooperation with open hands. I had gone out with a handcart, but trucks were filled with toys in reciprocation. A variety of material arrived, cheques and commitments worth lakhs of rupees arrived. I am excited, my enthusiasm has increased further. Therefore, the campaign to connect the society with Anganwadi is now becoming a social movement.
