During a workshop organized by ALERT Institute under the banner of the Forum for Crèches and Childcare Services Rajasthan, Mahip Singh, the Development Officer of Gogunda, emphasized the need to prioritize early childcare issues in the upcoming village council development plans.

He stressed that everyone's cooperation is essential for this initiative.
He specifically called for the inclusion of early childcare issues for children aged 0 to 6 years in the plans of village secretaries and gram sabhas, and offered support for proposals on these matters.
