Hints to Remember Who: Odisha Government What: Approves Rs. 466 Crore For ‘Khushi’ Scheme To Provide Free Sanitary Pads When: published on 26th February 2019 ‘I don’t like the concept of ‘periods’, it tends to stay for 6-7 days and since I can’t afford a sanitary pad, I have to sit at home all day long and miss school,” says a 14-year-old Nivedita Mohpatra from Cuttack district of Odisha. Nivedita is not alone, menstruation keeps thousands of young girls out of school in India. In Odisha alone, as per the latest National Family Health Survey (NFHS) data, 53 per cent women use unhygienic methods and around 69 per cent women use cloth. To bring about a change, Odisha Government launched the ‘Khushi’ scheme last year ahead of International Women’s Day, with an aim to provide free sanitary pads to government and non-government-aided schools across the state and benefit approximately 17 lakh girls. Now, a fund of Rs. 466 crore has been approved for Khushi scheme by Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik.
