Gurgaon, Nov 20 (KNN) Women and Child Department of Haryana is keen to promote entrepreneurs of small units by purchasing from them ready to cook and ready to eat items such as Halwa, Ladoo, Barfi, etc.
The ingredients used in the khatta meetha murmure/kurkure, halwa pre mix and paustik ladoo / barfi, etc, should be those fixed by the department for providing supplementary nutrition to the beneficiaries of SABLA in Ambala, Yamuna Nagar, Kaithal, Rohtak, Rewari and Hissar.
The food items should have rates valid for 12 months, clearing indicating the composition of ingredients. Further, they should contain protein, calories and micro-nutrients as specified by the deparment.
The approximate number of beneficiaries is 1.5 lakh adolescent girls to whom supplementary nutrition has to be provided at Rs 5 per day per beneficiary for 300 days in a year.
SABLA or Rajiv Gandhi Scheme for Empowerment of Adolescent Girls [RGSEAG] aims to improve the nutritional and health status of adolescent girls in the age group of 11-18 years and empower them by providing education in life-skills, health and nutrition.
The Government of India introduced the Rajiv Gandhi Scheme for Empowerment of Adolescent Girls - SABLA in November, 2010. The Scheme also aims at equipping girls with information on family welfare, health and hygiene, existing public services, etc., and to draw out-of-school girls into the formal or non-formal education systems.
The focus of the Scheme is primarily on out-of-school girls. An integrated package of services ― comprising nutrition and non-nutrition components ― are provided to adolescent girls, the ‘Nutrition Component’ targeting out-of-school girls between 11 and 14 and all girls in the 14-18 age-group.
