Which scheme was launched to improve the health status of women and child in the society?

Apni Beti-Apna Dhan Yojana
Apni Beti-Paraya Dhan
Paraya Dhan Parayi Beti
Indira Saheli Project

The correct answer is: A. Apni Beti-Apna Dhan Yojana

Apni Beti-Apna Dhan Yojana is a scheme launched by the Government of India in 2015 to improve the health status of women and child in the society. The scheme provides financial assistance to pregnant women and lactating mothers, as well as to children under the age of six. The scheme is aimed at reducing maternal and infant mortality rates, and improving the nutritional status of children.

The scheme is implemented through the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, and is funded by the Government of India. The scheme is available to all women and children in India, regardless of their income or social status.

To avail the benefits of the scheme, women and children must register with the local health department. The registration process is simple and can be done online or offline. Once registered, women and children will be eligible for a number of benefits, including:

  • Financial assistance for antenatal care, delivery, and postnatal care
  • Financial assistance for immunization of children
  • Financial assistance for nutritious food for children
  • Free medical treatment for children
  • Free education for children

The scheme has been successful in improving the health status of women and children in India. The maternal mortality rate has declined by 20% since the launch of the scheme, and the infant mortality rate has declined by 15%. The nutritional status of children has also improved, with a decline in the number of children who are underweight or malnourished.

The scheme has been well-received by women and children, and has been praised by experts for its effectiveness. The scheme has also been replicated by other states in India, and is being considered for implementation in other countries.

The other options are incorrect because they are not schemes that were launched to improve the health status of women and child in the society.
