The Ministry of Women and Child Development is celebrating the 6th Rashtriya Poshan Maah throughout September. The first day of Rashtriya Poshan Maah 2023 witnessed close to 10 lakh activities across the country. The themes like ‘Improving Nutrition through Mission LiFE & ‘Exclusive Breastfeeding and Complimentary Feeding’ is leading the way this year. 
 
At the inauguration of Rashtriya Poshan Maah 2023, officials and Anganwadi workers from across the nation came together to promote diet diversity and raise awareness about nutrition-seeking behavior, pledging their commitment to this important cause.
