About Chhattisgarh CM Suposhan Yojana
On the occasion of the 150th birth centenary of Mahatma Gandhi on October 2, 2019, the Chhattisgarh govt has launched a Scheme named Chhattisgarh CM Suposhan to address the nutritional problems of every mother and child in the state. Children from poor families become malnourished due to the rising prices of goods over time.

It is said here that children from 0 to 5 years old will be given nutritious food like eggs, milk, peanuts, molasses etc. twice a week for women aged 15 to 49 years.
