• ICDS MISSION MODE:

Divisional ICDS Cell, Lunglei covers 10 (ten) ICDS Projects within Lunglei and undivided Chhimtuipui District. The main function of this Department is for the welfare of children who are in the age group of 0-6 yrs of age including Pregnant and Lactating mother and adolescent girls of 12 – 18 yrs. by providing them with supplementary Nutrition, Pre-School Education & Health Care.

The Govt. of India is planning to restructure the normal ICDS scheme to a mission mode i.e. ICDS Mission Mode and for operating to the new scheme, intense training was given on Management Information System (MIS) to all ICDS functionaries. All the functionaries were trained during last year and Mizoram is the first among the North Eastern States to implement this scheme.

HEALTH:

1. INFRASTRUCTURE :
2. COMMUNICATION GAP :
3. POOR ROAD COMMUNICATION

• Poor road communication resulting in poor monitoring and supervision activities
• Late arrival and late intervention of referred cases
• Late reporting system
• Poor telecommunication in the District hampers the smooth functioning of various health programmes in the District.

Various Health institutions in the District eg: Sub Centre, Sub Centre Quarters requires reconstruction. .

In urban area Sub-Centre quarter at Pukpui, Farm veng

In Rural area: Under Lunglei S Main Centre: Vaisam Sub-Centre and Thehlep Sub Centre building.

In western belt where we have more chakma and Bru population the Health care workers have a language barrier resulting in poor situation control and poor achievement in various health programmes under NHM.
