An ECCE manual called 'Pahal' has been created by the Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS) for Anganwadi workers to help them execute ECCE programmes at their centres.

Furthermore, 44 districts across the state have received category-specific individual assessment cards for the half-yearly evaluation of three to six-year-old children.
