IMPHAL, Nov 1: Governor Ajay Kumar Bhalla today extended financial assistance to the Manipur State Rural Livelihoods Mission (MSRLM) to strengthen the development and distribution of “Mama’s Gift” — a locally prepared nutritional supplement designed to meet the needs of displaced children aged nine months and above.
Developed under the technical guidance of doctors and nutritionists from the National Health Mission (NHM), Manipur, Mama’s Gift is prepared by the Lamyanbi Village Level Federation (VLF), Khurai, under the MSRLM.
The initiative has so far benefited over 1,000 children in relief camps across nine districts, including Imphal East, Imphal West, Bishnupur, Thoubal, Jiribam, Kakching, Tengnoupal, and Kangpokpi, said a press release issued by the Governor’s Secretariat.
The Governor lauded the collective effort behind the initiative, describing Mama’s Gift as a symbol of community care and resilience.
He noted that the contribution from Raj Bhavan, Imphal, is a humble gesture to support the wellbeing of children and to encourage continued compassion in action.
