Pregnancy
aid calls flood the MP CM helpline
In an estimable step, the
Madhya Pradesh state government provides financial aid to pregnant women from
depressed backgrounds during and after delivery, still, it doesn’t frequently
reach them.
Further than half the
number of calls on the Chief Minister’s helpline number is entered affiliated
to help to claim aid, reported TOI.
The Madhya Pradesh
government offers fiscal aid to pregnant women under two schemes, videlicet
Janani Suraksha Yojna (JSY) and Prasuti Sahayata Yojna (PSY). Now the women are
calling out to their ‘mamaji’- the State Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chauhan,
fondly known as ‘ mamaji ’( mama’s family), among the people of Madhya Pradesh.
According to the records
shown, further, than half of the calls on the CM helpline were related to JSY
and PSY schemes asking for aid.
It was reported that the
main reasons for the detention in these fiscal aids are related to the absence
of proper documents, introductory details, pastoral miscalculations, etc.
According to some hospitals, the over-complicated process is also one of the
main reasons for the detention in furnishing aid to the indigent.
The Madhya Pradesh state
government started these two schemes to encourage institutional deliveries over
home deliveries and to latterly reduce birthtime mortality by reducing the
child mortality rate and motherly mortality rate. The schemes proved to be a
big relief for the women of lower socio- profitable strata during gestation.
They get around Rs,000
through the JSY and PSY schemes during gestation, so that they go to hospitals
for deliveries and not unmonitored home deliveries.
