Scheme Introduction: A Brief Overview
Good nutrition is essential for the healthy growth of children and the well-being of women. However, malnutrition and anaemia continue to affect many adolescent girls, pregnant women, lactating mothers, and young children. To address these challenges, the Government of Odisha launched the Mukhyamantri Sampoorna Pushti Yojana (MSPY), a major nutrition-focused welfare scheme aimed at improving the health and nutritional status of vulnerable groups across the state.
The scheme is being implemented by the Department of Women and Child Development across all 338 Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS) Projects in Odisha. MSPY provides additional nutritional support to adolescent girls, pregnant women, lactating mothers, Severely Acute Malnourished (SAM) children, Severely Underweight (SUW) children, and children suffering from Moderate Acute Malnutrition (MAM).
Under the scheme, beneficiaries receive nutritious food items such as eggs, roasted chana, paushtik bhel, til ladoos, dates, bananas, and other supplementary nutrition products through Anganwadi Centres. These benefits are provided in addition to the nutrition support already available under existing government programmes. Along with nutritional assistance, beneficiaries also receive services such as growth monitoring, health check-ups, counselling, anaemia screening, immunization, and Iron-Folic Acid (IFA) supplementation.
While MSPY focuses on improving nutrition through supplementary food support, the overall health and well-being of mothers and children also depend on access to healthcare services and safe pregnancy care. Pregnant women and lactating mothers enrolled under MSPY can further benefit from the Odisha Matrutwa Surakshya Yojana, which aims to strengthen maternal healthcare services and ensure safer pregnancies. Similarly, families can explore the Biju Swasthya Kalyan Yojana (BSKY) for access to cashless treatment and financial protection against medical expenses. Together, these schemes help create a stronger support system for maternal and child health in Odisha by combining nutrition assistance, healthcare services, and financial security.
