CISF’s ‘Shri Anna’ triumph: Millet usage crosses 30 pc of food consumption

Hyderabad, June 12 (UNI) In a significant stride towards government's ‘Shri Anna’ mission for sustainable heath in armed forces, the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) has exceeded target for millet (Shri Anna) consumption across its 434 units and formations across the country.

The journey to this achievement began with the United Nations General Assembly declaring 2023 as the ‘International Year of Millets,’ a testament to India’s persistent efforts.
