National child welfare schemes are implemented to ensure the overall well-being and development of children in the country.

  • These schemes focus on improving the health, education, and social conditions of children, particularly those from disadvantaged or vulnerable backgrounds.

Key Points

  • The Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS) is a key national child welfare scheme in India.
  • It is designed to promote the holistic development of children under the age of six and also provides services for pregnant women and lactating mothers.
  • The services offered under ICDS include health check-ups, immunization, supplementary nutrition, and early childhood education.

Hint

  • United Grant Commission (UGC) primarily deals with higher education and does not focus on child welfare.
  • NCERT (National Council of Educational Research and Training) is involved in the development of educational curriculum and resources but is not specifically a child welfare scheme.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Integrated child development services'.
