Complaint about quality of nutritional food in Yargamballi village In a 2018 meeting held in Yargamballi village, the ASHA raised the issue of supplementary nutritional services (SNP) available for pregnant ladies and lactating mothers who were complaining that over the past six months in two of the anganwadi centres in the village there have been irregularities in the timing and amount of SNP distribution. During the meeting, when the president asked the concerned anganwadi workers about this complaint they did not accept the allegation. When the committee members decided to write a letter to the anganwadi supervisor, the anganwadi workers agreed about the irregularities of SNP distribution to these beneficiaries. The president emphasized the importance of VHSNC members regularly checking the functioning of the anganwadi centres for SNP distribution to pregnant ladies and lactating mothers and for providing food to children. The president said he will inform all panchayat members in a future panchayath meeting to check the quality of distribution at the anganwadi centre. At the next VHSNC meeting, the ASHA worker informed the committee that SNP distribution had been given at the right time and quality according to guidelines issued by the Women and Child Development Department.
