Pradhan Mantri Matritva Vandana Yojana (PMMVY) is the renamed and revamped version of Matritva Sahyog Yojana under which government would provide Rs. 6000 financial aid to pregnant and lactating mothers for the first live birth. Similar to many other central govt’s welfare schemes, the government has added “Pradhan Mantri” in the name of this scheme too.

The central union cabinet has approved the new name Pradhan Mantri Matritva Vandana Yojana (PMMVY) to make it more appealing. According to the women and child welfare department, the earlier pregnancy aid scheme was not so successful, even many people didn’t knew about it.

All the pregnant women and lactating mothers who have their first pregnancy on or after 1 January 2017 can avail the scheme benefits subject to other eligibility criteria. The date and stage of pregnancy for a beneficiary would be counted with respect to her LMP date as mentioned in the MCP card. In case of miscarriage of first child, the women can avail rest of the installments during her future pregnancy. However, a beneficiary is eligible to receive the scheme benefits only once.

PM Matru Vandana Yojana (PMMVY) Latest Update

Central govt. will soon extend its flagship programme namely Pradhan Mantri Matru Vandana Yojana. PMMVY is currently applicable to eligible pregnant women and lactating mothers for the first child in the family to the second one only if the child born is a girl. Move aimed at discouraging pre-birth sex selection. Besides this, Aadhaar of husband will not be a mandatory criteria in the modified guidelines of PMMVY in order to facilitate inclusion of single mother and abandoned mother.

Under the centrally sponsored PMMVY scheme maternity benefit of Rs. 5,000 is provided in three installments to eligible pregnant women and lactating mothers for the first living child of the family. In a writen response to a question in Rajya Sabha on whether the government plans to extend the scheme beyond the first birth order, the minister for women and child development Smriti Irani said: “As per the recommendations of the expenditure finance committee’s minutes on Mission Shakti, benefits for second child may be provided only if the second child is a girl to discourage pre-birth-sex selection and promote the girl child.”

It is learnt from sources that the recommended extension of scheme is expected to be implemented after the revised guidelines under Mission Shakti are issued by the WCD ministry. The PMMVY is estimated to cover 51.70 lakh beneficiaries annually.

Pradhan Mantri Matritva Vandana Yojana (PMMVY) – Objective

The pregnancy aid scheme would help pregnant women in many ways but the two main objectives of the scheme are as follows:-

  1. Providing the partial compensation to working women against their wage loss and ensure their proper rest nutrition.
  2. Improving the health of pregnant women and lactating mothers and reducing the effects of under-nutrition through cash incentives.

Pradhan Mantri Matritva Vandana Yojana (PMMVY) which was earlier named as Indira Gandhi Matritva Sahyog Yojana during the UPA rule has been renamed for the second time. The scheme would be implemented by the Ministry of Women and Child Development.

  3. H’ble Sir/Madam,
    This is for your kind information that I have given birth a girl child on 05.04.17 and already intimated to you via email in Apr 2017. But no response is gotten from you till date. Now I am very eager to receive the benefit of PM Matritva Vandana Yojona due to economical insolvency in the family. My husband is clerk in a private school and no help is received from Govt./ICDS/Asha.

    Therefore, requesting you that a major action plan may be taken to provide the said facility vide online process through Aadhar details by individual and also informed how shall I get this facility if apply through online with Aadhar details. It is very necessary for me. Thanking you in anticipation with my regards.

  6. I’m not sure how this Matritva Vandana Yojona is going to help people because few months back one of my relative gave birth to a girl child in a government hospital(Dharampuri,Dist. dhar) and asked Rs6000 aid but she was told that you only get this benefit when you go through cesarean operation,which is not fair at all,
    Becouse there are a lot people who really need help and something is better than nothing but unfortunately these corrupt government employees won’t let it happen.
