Times of India reported in an article that the Finance Minister plans to strengthen nutritional content, delivery, outreach, and outcome, by merging supplementary nutrition program and Poshan Abhiyaan and launch Mission Poshan 2.0. According to the district nutrition profile prepared by POSHAN (Partnerships and Opportunities to Strengthen and Harmonize Actions for Nutrition of India), a knowledge initiative funded by BMGF and led by IFPRI, 27.2 percent of children aged below five in Wayanad were underweight and 27.7 percent suffered from stunting and 23.9 percent from wasting.
