Aims & Objectives: The study was conducted to assess millet awareness, acceptance, and consumption among married women in an urban area of Delhi. Methodology: A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted using a semi-structured questionnaire to collect information on a sample of 262 married women residing in the Tilak Nagar urban area of Delhi. Results: It was found that 78.9% of middle-class women consume millets at least once a month, compared to 64.9% of lower-class women (P value 0.044, ?2 =4.053). 70.9% of the women who were aware of millet significantly consumed it.
