Rajasthan's Minister for Women and Child Development, Diya Kumari, announced on December 13, 2025 that anganwadi workers and newly appointed supervisors across the state will receive Information Technology (IT) training to equip them for tech-enabled tasks, particularly monitoring using mobile-based applications. The announcement was made at a review meeting of the Directorate of Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS). The ICDS — a flagship government scheme launched in 1975 — is India's primary programme for early childhood care and development, providing nutrition, health, pre-school education, and immunisation services through a network of approximately 14 lakh anganwadi centres nationwide. Rajasthan operates one of India's largest ICDS networks, with over 62,000 anganwadi centres serving children under six years, pregnant women, and lactating mothers. The IT training initiative is linked to the central government's push to digitise ICDS operations through the Poshan Tracker application — a real-time data system that tracks beneficiary registration, nutrition status, service delivery, and growth monitoring at individual child and mother level. Anganwadi workers are required to log daily attendance, growth measurements, and service delivery records on the Poshan Tracker. The training will address skill gaps in smartphone and app usage, particularly in rural and tribal areas where digital literacy remains limited. Diya Kumari also reviewed the overall performance of ICDS in Rajasthan, including indicators on severe acute malnutrition (SAM), stunting prevalence, and pre-school enrolment — key metrics under the government's Mission Poshan 2.0 framework aimed at achieving a malnutrition-free India by 2047.
