Abstract: Social structural transformation in Meghalaya started before Indian independence with the coming of the British. Institutions of the family, religion and culture have undergone a persistent change through the introduction of written script, religious conversion and economic development.

The paper explores the positive role of ICDS programme in matrilineal Meghalaya and its importance in bringing about an overall development in early child care and nutrition..
