In Uttarakhand, ICDS Programme is under the purview of Panchayat Institutions. The Annual Confidential Report of District Programme Officer and Child Development Project Officer includes recommendation by Chairperson, Jila Panchayat and Chairperson Chetra Panchayat respectively. Gram Pradhan has been conferred the right to check and report to CDPO about the daily attendance of AWW. The Health and Family Welfare Committee of Gram Panchayat, supervises the activities at AWC, especially distribution of supplementary nutrition. Funds for construction of AWCs are routed through the bank account of Gram Panchayats. The buildings of Gram Panchayats are being used to run AWCs, where space is not available in the primary schools.
