What is the main reason for linking nutrition programmes with adolescent health in the National Population Policy?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Adolescent nutrition affects future adult health and maternal health

Direct answer: A is correct. Adolescence is a major stage of physical growth and development. Adequate food and essential nutrients help adolescents build healthy bodies, maintain learning ability and enter adulthood in better health. For girls in particular, good adolescent nutrition is relevant to later reproductive and maternal health, although nutrition matters for every adolescent. Linking nutrition with adolescent health therefore invests in the future health and capability of the population. B is wrong because the main purpose is human health, not merely industrial growth. C is wrong because nutrition does not stop a census; population counting remains necessary. D is wrong because nutrition cannot change state boundaries. The policy connection is long-term: healthy adolescents can become healthier adults and parents. Memory cue: adolescent nutrition is preparation for healthy adulthood, not just a short-term meal programme.
