Respected Sirs ! Thanks for providing such platforms. But One request from My side is that you also please raise the voice for bringing laws for regulatory set up against the Bilder in Delhi & NCR and also the other parts of the Country.

Blind faith on old customs is the main cause of deaths in children. Educated do things like uneducated. we need to educate people about the parenthood and keep our children away from local Sadak Chaap Hakim and other local herbal formulas without proper knowledge.

Respected Sir , Can you started to give dry packed grains to the students instead of mid day meal? Because meal is not quality wise , so student are not interested to eat food . So huge quantity of food wastage . If we serve packet of dry grain we can save wastage of food , prevent time of staff teacher , mistake of improper making food , hospitals expenses and prevent death of children.

Few inputs for preventing deaths in childdren... 1.A National standard of Ante natal checkup must be formed and strictly followed. 2. Auxillary healthworkers (ASHAs etc.) must be trained, supervised and incentive should be given to followup each child delivered under them for a fixed no. of diseases upto 6 years of age. 3. the five most common causes of death below five years to be focussed on at first for next five years and adding another two diseases after each 5 years.

Major cause of it is malnutrition and the food provided under mid day meal program is sub standard which is evident from media coverage, if by any means it could be improved then this can be avoided to a great extent.

Number of Indian states are affected by Swine Flu....in certain areas children are worst hit. I am surprised to find that "NasoVac-S" the intra-nasal sprayable safe vaccine, manufactured by Serum Institute of India is not available in the big cities like Hyderabad, Bangalore and Chennai while it is exported smoothly at a time when Indian children need it badly. Why a government intervention is not there so far ????
