INTRODUCTION: JSY is an ambitious scheme launched in April 2005, under the “National Health Mission”, the Government of India’s flagship health programme. The scheme is a safe motherhood intervention and seeks to reduce maternal and neo- natal mortality by promotion institutional delivery, i.e. by providing a cash incentives to mothers and let them to deliver their baby in a health facility. There is also provision for cost reimbursement for transport and incentives to ASHA s for encouraging mothers to go for institutional delivery. The scheme is fully sponsored by the Central Govt & is implemented in all states and union territories (Uts) with special focus on low performing states. There is provision for roping in the private sector by giving accreditation to willing private hospitals / Nursing homes for providing delivery services. Meaning of JSY: JSY under NHM is being opposed by way of modifying the existing National Maternity Benefit Scheme(NMBS).While NMBS is linked to provision of better diet for pw from BPL families,JSY itegrates the cash assistance with antenatal care during the pregnency period ,institutional care during delivery and immediate post natum period in a health centre by establishing a system of coordinated care by field level health worker . [ Source :Ministri of Health and Family Welfare ,Government of India] vision : 1.To reduce overall MMR and IMR 2.To increase institutional deliveries. [Source:Ministri Of Health And Family Welfare,Government of India] SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY This paper emphasis on the performance of JSY under Sarupathar block by focusing on • Maternal care through quality ANC • Cash assistance to all eligible mothers for delivery care • Cash benefits to ASHA for facilitating institutional delivery OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY The present survey is entrusted to study the following objectives: • To assess the role of ANM / ASHA in providing services to the beneficiaries of the JSY Volume XII, Issue III, March/2020 Page No:2026 The International journal of analytical and experimental modal analysis ISSN NO:0886-9367 • To seek the opinion of ANMs / ASHAs regarding sufficiency of funds and timely disbursement of funds • The extent to which the introduction of the JSY and ASHA s have helped in increasing * ANC checkups among Pregnant woman * Institutional delivery • The quality of services offered and the scope for improvement in the programme METHODOLOGY This paper is conducted on the basis of primary as well as secondary data.The primary data was collected through field survey. The secondary data was collected from various articles, reports, research papers, internet sources and sarupathar block PHC. REVIEW OF LITERATURE • According to the report on “Government of India, Ministry of Health and Family welfare Maternal Health Division Nirman Bhavan, New- Delhi, 2006” there should be the special dispensation for pregnant women from Low Performing States (LPS) like Uttar Pradesh , Uttaranchal , Bihar , Jharkhand , Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh , Assam , J & K. Age certificate is an instrument that is available easily . Many LPS states have yet to get the process of birth registration organized in rural area. In view of this , for all BPL pregnant woman belonging to LPS states any kind of age certification would not be insisted upon for availing the benefits of JSY. • According to “NRHM common Review Mission 2007” reported that JSY has put pressures on the public health system, and to large extend of outpatient attendance in general - but it is more mixed where the patient attendance or surgeries or diagnostics etc. However, even in these though rate or improvement may not be commensurate, the trend is still upward. • The series of assessment study report on ASHA and JSY in different states of India (2007), discusses the status of ASHA and the JSY schemes after two years of implementation of the NRHM, the studies indicate that the training period was not according to the requirements of the program, that there was some delay in payment to ASHA and that 75% of the JSY beneficiaries had received funds within a week. The studies also highlight that in spite of the JSY funds related satisfaction being relatively high, it could not be cited as the major reason for the preference for intuitional delivery. From the above study it has been found that there is no clear cut picture about the performences of JSY ,perticularly in rural areas.So in this paper a small effort has been made to study about the performence Of JSY in Sarupathar Block PHC,of Assam. AREA OF THE STUDY This paper focuses on the performances of JSY under NHM in Sarupathar block PHC,Dist.Golaghat.Before we discuss about the performance of JSY here I mention a few lines about this area.

Before we discuss about the performence of JSY in the study area we have to first look into the common features of this scheme. Features:- (1) States/ Uts have been classified into two categories based on the institutional delivery rate. The 10 states( Namely Uttar Pradesh , Uttaranchal , Bihar , Jharkhand , Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh ,Rajasthan , Orissa, Assam , J & K) would constitute low performing states and the rest high performing states. (2) Cash assistance linked to institution delivery:- The benefits under the scheme would be linked to availing of antenatal check up by the pregnant woman and getting the delivery conducted in health centres / hospitals . While the beneficiaries will be encouraged to register themselves with the health workers at the Sub centre / AWC /PHC for availing of at least 3 Antenatal Checkups, Post natal care and neonatal care , the disbursement of enhanced benefits under the scheme will be linked to institutional delivery .

  • Kushal Konwar the Only Martyr to Be Hanged in 1942
    Kushal Konwar The Only Martyr to be Hanged in 1942 Translated from Assamese into English by Jolly Saikia Gogoi --- A Tribute to Kushal Konwar: - www.atributetosankaradeva.org is proud to present to the readers a tribute to one of the greatest freedom fighters of India who was also a Vaisnava devotee whose entire life was steeped in the message of the Gita and the Bhagavata and the teachings of Sankaradeva and Madhavadeva. We remember Kushal Konwar today, the martyr who sacrificed his all for the cause of the motherland. We remember him today, the devotee, calmly ascending the gallows singing Sankaradeva’s ‘Par Kora Raghunath Sansara Sagar’. --- The participation of Assam in India’s struggle for freedom was at par with any other part of the country. Many eminent persons from the State joined hands with the leaders of the Indian National Congress and participated in important movements that were carried on from time to time. Many young men and women fell victim to the bullets of the police and the army. One recalls the names of Kanaklata, Mukunda Kakoty, Bhogeswari Phukanani, Teleswari Baruah, Kushal Konwar and others. Out of all the names mentioned, the name of Kushal Konwar stands out separately for special reasons. First of all, Kushal Konwar was the only martyr in the entire country to be awarded with capital punishment during the 1942 movement. In the entire movement none else was sent to the gallows. Another characteristic of the severe punishment was that Kushal Konwar did not participate at all in the act for which he was punished.

Hatred towards the British administration was spontaneously bursting out during the movement. It was helped by some directions and programme of the movement circulated by the APCC (Assam Pradesh Congress Committee) throughout the province. Many among the Congress volunteers took the path of underground activities. One of the main objectives of the Movement in Assam was to paralyze the communication network and for this the following instruction was issued. “All ways of Communication are to be obstructed. Big bridges are to be broken. Railway lines should be pulled off so that there may be obstruction in the military movement and bringing other articles”. To realize the programme between August 1942 and March 1943 there were a series of train derailment activities in Assam. Background: In the Second World War, articles from the shops and valuables from the aggression of Japanese army to the the ordinary people, by the military men in North East made the situation very tense in a number of places worried and frightened Assam. Rangoon and Singapore were the common people.2 Dangerous driving occupied by the Japanese army from the and indifference of traffic rules, occasional British in May 1942 and bombarded on molestation of women forcible entry into Imphal, Dimapur and Kohima.
