The correct answer is: Malnutrition.
The Poshan Abhiyan (Nutrition Mission) is a national-level initiative launched by the Government of India in 2018 to address the issue of malnutrition in the country. The mission aims to improve the nutritional status of children, women, and adolescent girls by providing them with access to quality food and nutrition services.
The mission has four key focus areas:
- Improving the nutritional status of children under the age of five
- Reducing stunting among children under the age of five
- Reducing anemia among women and adolescent girls
- Improving the dietary diversity of the population
The mission is being implemented through a multi-pronged approach that includes:
- Providing cash transfers to pregnant women and lactating mothers
- Providing food supplements to children under the age of five
- Promoting exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months of life
- Providing micronutrient supplements to children and women
- Strengthening the public health system to provide quality nutrition services
The Poshan Abhiyan is a significant step towards addressing the issue of malnutrition in India. The mission has the potential to improve the lives of millions of people and make a real difference in the country’s development.
Air pollution, water scarcity, and unemployment are all important issues that need to be addressed, but they are not the focus of the Poshan Abhiyan. The mission is specifically designed to address the issue of malnutrition.
