In a move to strengthen early childhood care and education, the Odisha government has enhanced the allocation for uniforms and footwear provided to children enrolled at Anganwadi centres under theMalati Devi Pre-School Scheme.

According to official sources, the revised allocation reflects rising costs and the need to ensure better quality clothing for young children. The increased funding will allow the supply of more durable and comfortable uniforms and footwear at Anganwadi centres across the state.

As per the revised rates, the allocation forboys’ uniformshas been increased fromRs 100 to Rs 175, while the amount forgirls’ uniformshas been raised fromRs 150 to Rs 250. Additionally, the allocation forfootwearhas been enhanced fromRs 100 to Rs 150 per child.

Officials said the decision is part of the state government’s broader efforts to strengthen pre-school education under theIntegrated Child Development Services (ICDS)framework. Improving basic facilities such as uniforms and footwear is expected to boost attendance, create a better learning environment, and support the overall well-being of Anganwadi children.

Detailed implementation guidelines are expected to be issued soon to district administrations and Anganwadi workers to ensure smooth execution of the revised scheme across Odisha.
