The
Ministry of Women and Child Development has expanded Beti Bachao, Beti Padhao
scheme in additional 61 district (covering 11 states).
Beti Bachao Beti Padhao (BBBP) Scheme was launched on 22nd
January, 2015 at Panipat in Haryana. It is a tri-ministerial effort of
Ministries of Women and Child Development, Health & Family Welfare and
Human Resource Development. In the first phase, 100 districts with
low CSR were selected for BBBP
Scheme implementation for creating awareness
and advocacy about the issue. During
the last one year, the BBBP Scheme is being implemented under the overall guidance
and supervision of concerned District Magistrate/Deputy Commissioners.
Seeing
the overwhelming response by stakeholders in the form of various initiatives
and innovations at the local level to the scheme, the Standing Finance
Committee (SFC) in its meeting held on 5th January 2016 under the
Chairmanship of Shri V. Somasundaran, Secretary, WCD approved the expansion of
the Beti Bachao Beti Padhao scheme in additional 61 districts with low CSR for
creating awareness and advocacy about the issue taking into account the
performance of the scheme. The scheme has now been expanded to 61 districts.
The
list of these additional districts is as below:
