The Department of Women and Child Development (DWCD) was spending more than Rs 600 crore annually to provide nutritious food to children, pregnant and lactating mothers, and adolescent girls. But the Department failed to act when consistent reports from anganwadi centres streamed in about rejection of the food by children and mothers, which they sold as cattle feed in the market.
