Bengaluru, Dec 13: Woman and Child Welfare department Minister Dr. Jayamala said that provisions would be made in the next Budget to give uniforms to Anganwadi children from next academic year.

Responding to the question of MLC Veena Achaiah in the Legislative Council on Thursday, she said that the Chief Minister has responded positively to the proposal of giving uniforms to Anganwadi children from next academic year. So, it would be included in the next  budget. Since the seven months pregnant women find it difficult to come to anganwadis to have food under Mathru Poorna scheme, kits would be supplied to their homes directly, she said.

Veena Achaiah said that under Udyoga scheme, total 40 women have got training in tailoring and they should be given opportunity to stitch school uniforms. Total six gram panchayats have incurred losses due to drought and 35 villages due to flood in Kodagu district and such villages should be considered as special cases and issue BPL cards instead of APL cards to them, she demanded.

Reacting to it, Jayamala said that the state government has taken special interest for the development of Kodagu district. It has implemented micro loan, Samrudhi scheme and others and she would discuss with the concerned minister to give BPL cards, she said.
