We have passed cross twenty first century and vouch " health for all" but unfortunately statistics reveal, 50 % of death in children accounted to malnutrition in India. This is a sad state of affair. The ministry for WCD ( women and child development has proposed a surveillance system for backward districts and identification of clusters and cases of death due to Malnutrition.
NRHM, JnNURM , ICDS , Rajiv Gandhi national drinking water mission and national food security mission are already working on this and imparting their contributions, but is not enough,
A diligent approach is needed for identification of bottlenecks and immediate action needs to be taken.
