It was informed by Dr Yashpal Sharma, although there is co-ordination between the ICDS & health department at the field level, particularly in the immunization programme, there is a need for more effective co-ordination between both the departments at district and state levels for implementing the other components of the National Health Mission more effectively which include Rashtriya Bal Swasthya Karyakram, Rashtriya Kishore Swasthya Karyakram, Disease Control Programmes.
There is considerable overlap in the duties being performed by the AWWs and the ANMs and there is a need to rationalize their roles and responsibilities by ICDS & Health Department, he added.
