New Delhi : Prime Minister NarendraModi will launch the ‘SwasthNari, SashaktParivarAbhiyaan’ along with the 8th PoshanMaah, marking a historic step towards strengthening healthcare and nutrition services for women, adolescent girls, and children across India on September 17. The initiative is being jointly led by the Ministry of Health & Family Welfare (MoHFW) and the Ministry of Women & Child
Development (MoWCD), reflecting their shared commitment to women’s and children’s health and nutrition. MoHFW will anchor the delivery of preventive, promotive, and
curative health services through health camps and facilities nationwide, while MoWCD will integrate PoshanMaah activities with the campaign, mobilise women and adolescent girls through Anganwadi centres, and lead large-scale nutrition counselling and recipe
demonstrations. Together, the two ministries will also drive awareness campaigns on anaemia prevention, balanced diets, and menstrual hygiene, ensuring that the health and nutrition needs of women and adolescent girls are addressed in a holistic and
convergent manner. The SwasthNari, SashaktParivarAbhiyaan aims to advance the Hon’ble Prime Minister’s vision of Health, Poshan (Nutrition), Fitness, and a Viksit Bharat by 2047. This nationwide intensified campaign seeks to provide women-centric
preventive, promotive, and curative health services at the community level. It will
strengthen screening, early detection, and treatment linkages for non-communicable diseases, anaemia, tuberculosis, and sickle cell disease, while also promoting maternal, child, and adolescent health through antenatal care, immunisation, nutrition, menstrual hygiene, lifestyle and mental health awareness activities. At the same time, the campaign
will mobilise communities towards healthy lifestyle practices with a special emphasis
on obesity prevention, improved nutrition, and voluntary blood donation.In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Hon’ble Health & Family
