Kalaiya, July 9. The Prasauni Rural Municipality has decided to deposit Rs 10,000 annually for 20 years in the name of a newborn girl child if her birth registration certificate was obtained within 35 days of birth.
The village assembly today took the decision to implement ‘Save daughters, educate daughters’ and incentive to lactating mother programme and provide monthly allowance of Rs 1,000 and two packets of iodized salt to pregnant women, shared Rural Municipality Chairperson Bhola Prasad Gupta.
