New Delhi: The Ministry of Women and Child Development’s Poshan Tracker initiative has won the prestigious National Award for e-Governance 2024 (Gold) for Government Process Re-engineering and Digital Transformation. The award was presented yesterday (September 3, 2024) in Mumbai, honoring the remarkable progress made by Mission Poshan 2.0 in monitoring the growth and nutritional health of millions of children across India.
