## ANSWER

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

(a)  &  (b)     Yes,  Sir.  The  Ministry  of  Women  and  Child  Development  is  successful  in implementing the Pradhan Mantri Matru Vandana Yojana (PMMVY) across the country (except the States of Odisha and Telangana). The States of Odisha and Telangana are implementing their own maternity benefit schemes. Since inception of the scheme, more than 2.89 crore Pregnant Women and Lactating Mothers (PW&LM) have been enrolled and ₹11,217.39 crore has been disbursed as on 15.07.2022. The State/UT-wise number of  beneficiaries  enrolled,  number  of  beneficiaries  provided  maternity  benefits  and  total amount disbursed during the last five years and the current financial year till 15.07.2022 is at Annexure .

(c)  &  (d)      Since  the  inception  of  the  scheme,  the  cash  incentives  under  PMMVY  are transferred directly into the bank/post office account of the beneficiary through the Direct Benefit  Transfer  (DBT)  mode.   Further,  the  implementation  guidelines  of  umbrella scheme Mission Shakti, (which also includes PMMVY under subcomponent  Samarthya), provide that benefits under PMMVY can be availed only on the basis of Aadhaar number of beneficiary, so as to avoid any duplication or malpractices.
