Zusammenfassung:An interview based cross sectional study was conducted in two of the designated Baby Friendly Hospitals of Indore in the year 2008. None of the hospitals were having a written breastfeeding policy, which is routinely communicated to all the health workers and no regular training regarding the Programme was being imparted.
