To alleviate the issue of maternal and infant undernutrition, Government of Odisha has launched a state specific scheme for pregnant women and lactating mothers called MAMATA- a conditional cash transfer maternity benefit scheme. This scheme provides monetary support to the pregnant and lactating women to enable them to seek improved nutrition and promote health seeking behaviour
Objective
- To provide partial wage compensation for pregnant and nursing mothers so that they are able to rest adequately during their pregnancy and after delivery.
- To increase utilisation of maternal and child health services, especially antenatal care, postnatal care and immunisation.
- To improve mother and child care practices, especially exclusive breastfeeding and complementary feeding of infants.
Target Group:
This scheme is operational in all the 338 projects of 30 districts of the State.
Pregnant & Lactating women of 19 years of age and above for the first two live births, except all Government/Public Sector Undertakings (Central and State) employees and their wives will be covered. The first two live birth norms shall be relaxed for Particularly Vulnerable Tribal Groups (PVTGs) who are belonging to 13 communities as per Order No.10226 of dated 19-06-2018) or any other order issued by Government from time to time.
