\nParents should talk to the children during this process to reduce the feelings of mental anxiety or shame. They said that mothers in backward and remote areas are giving birth to children but with no mother care program. The mortality rate is quite high, they said, adding, \u201cThose survive, among them a large number, are too weak to transmit the required strength to the child.\u201d
\nThe Aga Khan Health Service Chitral Nutrition Program has been started to eliminate malnutrition in Chitral and reduce the mortality rate of malnourished children, where children from remote areas will be examined and diagnosed and all kinds of facilities will be provided to them, Nigar Ali said.
\nHe said that nutritional stunting is a type in which the child is short for age. Such children have less mental and physical development than a normal child, as a result of which the child lags behind in studies as well as other activities. This kind of training program is very important to deal with this serious situation, he concluded.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
