## ANSWER

(a) & (b) POSHAN Abhiyaan was launched on 8 th  March 2018 with an aim to achieve improvement in nutritional status of Children under 6 years, Adolescent Girls, Pregnant Women and Lactating Mothers in a time bound manner by adopting a synergised and result oriented approach.

A novel feature of POSHAN Abhiyaan has been its focus on Community Mobilization and Awareness Advocacy leading to Jan Andolan to educate the people on nutritional aspects. Jan Andolans are considered as the biggest 'Nutrition Campaigns' initiated under POSHAN Abhiyaan. These Jan Andolans are conducted annually in form of Poshan Maah and Poshan Pakhwada in the months of September and March-April respectively.

Since the launch of POSHAN Abhiyaan in March 2018, these events have helped in reaching  out to communities  for  sensitisation on  Nutrition through  variety of campaigns.  The  Poshan  Maah  and  Poshan  Pakhwada  celebrated  so  far  have witnessed wide participation and enthusiasm from convergent Ministries, States/UTs and  field  functionaries.  Over  the  years,  themes  have  included  overall  nutrition, hygiene,  water  and  sanitation,  anaemia  prevention,  importance  of  breast-feeding, growth monitoring, role of Poshan Panchayats, AYUSH for Well-being, 'Back to Basics - Yoga for Health', importance of Poshan Vatikas for cultivation of local vegetables, medicinal plants/herbs and fruits at the community level, Poshan ke Paanch Sutra , promoting tribal foods etc. So far, through ten such National Campaigns, more than 60 crore sensitisation activities on Nutrition have been conducted. The no. of activities reported by Maharashtra and Uttar Pradesh for all the 'Nutrition Campaigns' are at Annexure-I .

The performance/effective implementation of the programme is monitored regularly through a robust ICT platform named Poshan Tracker which captures near real-time data of the programme implementation throughout the country. It facilitates monitoring of  the  activities  of  the  Anganwadi  Centre  (AWC),  service  deliveries  of  Anganwadi Workers  (AWWs)  and  complete  beneficiary  management  for  pregnant  women, lactating mothers and children on defined indicators

Development  Monitoring  &  Evaluation  Office  (DMEO)  under  NITI  Aayog  has conducted  Sectoral  Evaluation  of  schemes  including  POSHAN  Abhiyaan,  wherein performance  of  the  scheme  was  found  satisfactory  in  criterions  of  Relevance, Sustainability  and  Equity.  NITI  Aayog  assessed  the  implementation  of  POSHAN Abhiyaan since its inception and came out with the following key findings:

-  Poshan Abhiyaan has helped to bring a strong focus on improving nutrition outcomes during the first 1,000 days.
-  Poshan Abhiyaan has enabled a nation-wide Jan-andolan catalysing nutrition related behaviour change at scale for positive impact on feeding and healthcare practices.
-  Poshan Abhiyaan demonstrated that the processes for inter-sectoral convergence  are  effectively  operationalized  through  in  place  institutional mechanisms at multiple levels.
-  Poshan  Abhiyaan  showed  that  technology  can  be  leveraged  for  real-time monitoring of large scale health and nutrition programmes.
-  Poshan  Abhiyaan  supported  the  resilience  of  health  and  nutrition  systems during covid-19 pandemic.

(c)        The data on nutrition indicators is captured under the National Family Health Surveys conducted periodically by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare. As per the latest round of NFHS-5 (2019-21), the prevalence of Low birth weight was 20% and  20.2%  in  Maharashtra  and  Uttar  Pradesh  respectively.

The  district-wise  prevalence  of  stunting, underweight,  wasting,  anaemia,  among  children  and  women  from  NFHS-5  as  per information  provided  by  Health  Statistics  division  of  Ministry  of  Health  and  Family Welfare is at Annexure-II .

(d) The State/UT-wise details of funds released and utilised under POSHAN Abhiyaan is placed at Annexure-III .

(e)  The  details  of  district-wise  number  of  beneficiaries  under  Poshan  Abhiyaan  in Maharashtra and Uttar Pradesh district are at Annexure-IV and project-wise details of beneficiaries in Prayagraj and Badaun districts of Uttar Pradesh are at AnnexureV .
