The Minister added that a pregnant woman can give birth to a healthy child only if she gets a healthy and nutritious diet. If an expectant mother suffers from deficiency of any kind then the child is sure to suffer from malnutrition. This would lead to many physical and mental issues and also result in inferiority complex. Giving a clarion call to make \u2018Poshan Maah\u2019 a success, the minister said he is for giving special care to pregnant women and newborn infants.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&nbsp;In her address on the occasion, the Principal Secretary, Social Security, Women and Child Development Mrs. Raji P.

She said that the initiatives of the State Government would surely work wonders in achieving the targets of \u2018Poshan Maah\u2019.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Addressing the representatives of all the stakeholder departments, the Mission Director, Mission Tandarust Punjab Mr. Kahan Singh Pannu said that Punjab is extremely rich in natural resources and the people must get the R.O.s installed only after getting the water tested.
