              Having realized the utmost urgency and importance of giving highest priority to develop human resources, the Government of India found it most essential to evolve a national programme for the overall development of children. The result of this concern is the emergence of a national programme called Integrated Child Development Services Scheme in the year 1975, with a modest coverage of 33 projects in the country with one pilot project at T. Narsipur in Karnataka, which has been expanded to cover all the taluks in the State. The welfare of pregnant and nursing mothers and children below 6 years has acquired a   prime   place in the programme. 

OBJECTIVES OF THE SCHEME

 Improve the nutritional and health status of children in the age group 0-6 years.
