Himanshi Dhawan | TNN With child malnutrition levels stagnant at 46% for the past 10 years, the government has been forced to restructure its programme for nutritional intervention for children between 0-6 years. If approved by the Union cabinet, the government will spend an average Rs 4.21 per beneficiary per day, up from Rs 2 per day. The restructured Integrated Child Development Scheme (ICDS) will be implemented in mission mode under a National ICDS Mission Directorate and increase financial powers at the grassroots level.
