Special Nutrition Program was introduced in 1970 to improve the nutritional status of specific target groups
The target groups are:
children under 6 years
pregnant and lactating mothers
The program is operated in the following locations:
urban slums
tribal areas
backward rural areas
Supplementary nutrition is provided for 300 days every year
Children under 6 years – 300kcal, 10-12g protein
Pregnant and lactating women – 500kcal, 25g protein
Initially the program was under the Central Government
The responsibility was later shifted to the state government under the Minimum Needs Program
Now the special nutrition program is integrated with the ICDS (Integrated Child Development Services)
