The BBBP scheme has a major thrust on education of girl child and envisages celebrations of new girl admissions in schools, felicitation of meritorious girl students and construction of separate toilets for girls   among other activities.

Many residents blamed ICDS for running defocused activities instead of spending upon above mentioned parameters.

“They run awareness campaign in and around Pulwama town and don’t bother to go to villages,” said Aijaz Ahmad, a resident of Pulwama, adding that due to defocused activities goals remained unachieved. He also said that lack of separate toilets is also a cause for drop -outs and decrease in admissions.
