Health awareness drive for railway staff held

Nampally: South Central Railway Women's Welfare Organisation (SCRWWO) conducted an awareness programme on 'Health and Hygiene for Women' at the Coaching Depot, Nampally, on Thursday.

Jayanthi Mallya, President, SCRWWO, addressed the gathering by stressing on the importance of health management for women. She said, "Everyone in the family depends on the women who are the homemakers and protectors of the health of the entire family.

Women are known for the sacrifices they made for the sake of family by spending all their energy and usually neglect their own health. This is the reason that over 51% of women in India suffer from anaemia due to lack of blood and malnutrition due to insufficient intake of food."
