Drive to focus on 24 ‘particularly vulnerable local bodies’
The District Kudumbashree Mission has embarked on a mass awareness campaign, especially focussed around 24 local bodies, in the wake of the second wave of the pandemic.
The Health Department had handed over the Mission a list of 24 particularly vulnerable local bodies for special attention. Following this, the Community Development Societies (CDS) in these local bodies convened special meetings attended by 329 members for chalking out awareness campaigns.
This was followed by similar special meetings of Area Development Societies (ADS) in 189 wards and I448 Neighbourhood Groups (NHG).

Kudumbashree begins work on project
The Kudumbashree Mission, joining hands with National Rural Livelihood Mission, has begun work on implementing Gramakam, a village-level poverty reduction programme, on mission mode over the next four years.
The programme involves 2.45 lakh neighbourhood groups and 15,985 Area Development Societies (ADSs) under the Kudumbashree Mission in 914 panchayats in the State, said an official on Monday.
The mission begins with the identification and consolidation of grass-roots level needs of a village. They include both entitlements like pension, employment guarantee card, insurance cover, etc. and livelihood needs of people for which enterprises, ranging from dairy farming to agricultural activities, can be identified.
