Pillar: Connectivity
In South Tripura, 25.5% of children under five are stunted, better than the typical Indian district. The Anganwadi centre is the frontline for changing that: supplementary nutrition, growth monitoring, and pre-school for children up to six.
67% of registered enterprises are in services while 33% are in manufacturing. Only 3% of employment is in small and medium enterprises. 68% of school-age children are enrolled in higher secondary school (classes 9–12).
In South Tripura, which ranks 6 of 8 in Tripura for youth opportunity, the overall opportunity score is 42.7 out of 100. It trails the national picture on women who are anaemic at 67% and households in the poorest wealth group at 44.5%.
What the Anganwadi Centre is required to do, who runs it and how to find one are in the Anganwadi Centre reference. For South Tripura specifically, see the South Tripura district course and the English reference guide (Hindi). The South Tripura youth opportunity scorecard carries the full district picture.
