Quotes

...The recent slogan that receives much articulation is " invest in mother'. Such investment also covers expenditure on maternal health. Mother's state of health in terms of nutrition and care is linked to the health of the infants. 75% of the pregnant women do not receive antenatal at the time of birth (Bhattacharjee and Chakraborty 2000:1). Nutrition deficiency of mothers accounts much for malnutrition of infants."
"My mother's side of the family was Native American so I grew up being really close to nature, and that whole mentality really brought me to loving this stuff. Preserving the earth is very important. We have only one of them."
"Many using MGNREGS labour for their land shifting to horticulture"
"The role of local authorities is critical to reaching those left behind, including women, indigenous people, ethnic minorities, youth, the disabled and other excluded groups."
