There is a need to improve access to child health services. The Ministry of Health is focusing on promoting child health through appropriate interventions. Presently, the Department of School Education and Literacy, MHRD addresses the nutritional needs of school going children in the age group of 6-14 years through the Mid- Day Meal (MDM) Scheme. The Integrated Child Development Scheme (ICDS) under WCD also addresses the issues of child health. There is, however, a need to synergize the multi-sectoral interventions taken by the relevant GOI Ministries. The existing schemes need to be examined for their outcomes and impediments in implementation, including those of coordination. This theme seeks views and suggestions on how to ensure greater focus on child through improvements in existing schemes and suggest new holistic interventions.

Sir,we are a democracy and we have unity in diversity as a matter of fact, but we also have student's from various socio-economic backgrounds. 1. Thus it becomes mandatory to impart health education to the students right from 1st standard. 2. Regular medical checkup of the student's is a must. 3.Student's must be encouraged to watch health videos in games period. 4.Health assessment of student's on grade's must be done regularly.

Next ,when the child is admitted in 1st standard at that very instant the government of India should deposit 5 lakhs in State Bank Of India in that child's name and make use of this money for the benefit of that child in future for professional colleges or that money will be utilised by that child in starting a business/small firm/company.Afterall we are a developed country and this step will surely help our nation.
