## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF WOMEN AND CHILD DEVELOPMENT (SHRIMATI SMRITI ZUBIN IRANI)

- (a)  &  (b)  The  Government of India has recently enhanced the honorarium of Anganwadi Workers (AWWs) at main-Anganwadi Centres (AWCs) from ₹ 3,000/- to ₹ 4,500/- per month; AWWs at mini-AWCs from ₹ 2,250/- to ₹ 3,500/- per month; Anganwadi Helpers (AWHs) from ₹ 1,500/- to ₹ 2,250/- per month; and introduced performance linked incentive of ₹ 250/- per month to AWHs, with effect from 1 st  October, 2018.

Under the National Health Mission (NHM), ASHAs are envisaged to be community health volunteers and are entitled to task/activity based incentives. List of various activities for which incentives are provided to ASHAs is at Annexure -I . Apart from incentives approved for ASHAs at national level, States have the flexibility to design their own ASHA incentives. The incentives to ASHAs for different tasks are regularly reviewed from time to time. Accordingly, Government of India  has  recently  approved  increase  in the  amount  of routine  and recurring  incentives  under National Health Mission for ASHAs that will enable ASHAs to get at least Rs 2000/- per month subject to carrying out assigned tasks.

- (c)  & (d) The statement of the additional honorarium paid by the States/UTs to AWWs/AWHs is at ANNEXURE-II. Information  regarding  amount  of  incentives/honorarium  for  different  activities being paid to ASHAs by different States/UTs is not maintained centrally at MoHFW level.
- (e) The  platform  of  Anganwadi  Centres  is  used  for  the  implementation  of  the  Schemes  under Umbrella  Integrated  Child  Development  Services  (ICDS)  Scheme  comprising    of  Anganwadi Services, Scheme for Adolescent Girls, Pradhan Mantri Matru Vandana Yojana (PMMVY) and POSHAN Abhiyaan.
- (f) States/UTs-wise details of AWCs functioning and the total number of Anganwadi workers/helpers/employees are at ANNEXURE-III & IV respectively.
