419 Anganwadi centres in Kendrapara district run sans buildings  Post News Network Kendrapara: As per the February guidelines issued by the State government, Anganwadi centres located outside Containment Zones start functioning from Monday. But in Kendrapara, with over 700 Anganwadi centres not having their own building as yet, one thing is certain that the children coming to these centres will be made to sit on verandahs of nearby schools or houses. Though the project was launched in 2019, as many as 419 Anganwadi centres’ buildings are still lying half-constructed. According to Banambar Sahu, a social activist, various schemes and programmes starting from immunization to providing food and security to helpless elderly persons are being carried out at one Anganwadi centre in the district. If over one fourth of the total Anganwadi centres in the district are yet to have their own buildings, it is only because of bureaucratic inertia.
