Community-based event ‘Kudumbangalilekku anganwadi’ launched as part of Sampushta Keralam project
The Women and Child Development department has launched a programme to ensure the health of pregnant women and the elderly in the wake of the spread of COVID-19 variants.
‘Kudumbangalilekku anganwadi’ is a community-based event being implemented as part of the Sampushta Keralam project to enquire about the welfare of pregnant women and the elderly, ensure their health against the backdrop of the Omicron spread, and conduct awareness programmes.
With the clock ticking down to the Lok Sabha election counting day on Tuesday, opposing fronts are perceptibly edgy and poised to continue the rancorous skirmishing that marked the campaign season in Kerala. The United Democratic Front, led by the Congress, is seemingly basking in the “interim victory” granted by various exit polls. The UDF discerns that its poll strategy of turning the polls foremostly into a damning referendum on the Left Democratic Front government’s perceived failures rather than BJP’s “divisive politics” at the national level stood a fighting chance of paying off.
