Objective of the Odisha Nai Pahal Scheme
The “wedding kit” is a part of the NaiPahal Scheme under the National Health Mission (NHM), which aims to increase awareness of the necessity for young couples to embrace both temporary and long-term methods of family planning.
Despite having a low total fertility rate, Odisha is the first State to undertake the campaign, according to NHM State Mission Director Shalini Pandit (TFR). The average number of children a woman would have throughout her lifetime is called the TFR of a population. Odisha’s TFR is 1.8 compared to the national average of two. The responsibility of providing kits to newlywed couples has been delegated to Accredited Social Health Activists (ASHAs).
According to the reports, the package may also include a wedding congratulations letter from the Chief Minister in addition to the contact information for local health professionals, ASHA, and ANM. The Health Department also intends to expand family planning counselling and contraceptive services to all operational urban primary health centres, as well as to increase the administration of novel injectable contraceptives to qualified couples.
How to Get Wedding Kits
