Why Major Changes Were Made in the Anganwadi Worker Saree Scheme, Chhattisgarh?
The changes have been made after getting the complaints, suggestions, and reviewing the Saree Purchase system. Because the beneficiaries have their own choice, some of them wear cotton, some of them wear silk, etc. That’s why the department decided to provide the fund to all the beneficiaries instead of purchasing the Saree. Now every employee will get the fund for their Saree in their account with the help of simple and transparent methods.

As we all know, in this scheme, the government provide two uniforms to all the Anganwadi Workers and their Assistant every year. So now the government has decided to Pay Rs.500 for one uniform.
