Despite advances in health services, undernutrition remains one of the major public health issues in India. The recent National Family Health Survey (NFHS-5) highlighted pervasive malnutrition among children and women in India (NFHS, 2022). The situation is especially acute in eastern states like Assam, Odisha, and West Bengal, where more than 30% of children are malnourished and anaemia is highly prevalent, affecting more than 60% of children and women.
