IOne factor which is common in both these events is the tenacity and determination of our Government under the leadership of Hon'ble Chief Minister Shri Naveen Patnaik. Determined that he is, all efforts are being made to provide relief and rehabilitation to the flood ravaged and so also is the celebration after getting ourselves relieved from the colonial hangover by change of name of our State. It reminds me of the peaceful explosion in Pokharan and subsequent reaction of former Prime Ministers Smt. Indira Gandhi in 1974 and Shri A.B.Vajpayee in 1998 respectively. The Orissa Review team congratulates the Chief Minister and the people of the State for working together and achieving a major change after 75 years. It is our sincere wish that we usher in balanced socio-economic growth in Odisha that hinges on sustainable development with strong fundamentals of industrial growth, right harnessing of natural resources and actualization of employment potential. Last but not the least I would like to remind our esteemed readers that we have registered a significant decline in the percentage of BPL population, significant decline in the Maternal Mortality Rate, a significant rise in the Literacy Rate in Odisha. As an Odia, I am proud today that our State Odisha is on the path of growth where we are performing better than the national average. Let us all join hands and work together for bringing a smile on the face of every Odia. November - 2011 Orissa Review 1 Orissa Review November - 2011 SANKHA KSHETRA 1. Balabhadra,Jagannatha, 29.

Narendra Sarovar 2 November - 2011 Orissa Review MAMATA (A conditional cash transfer scheme for Pregnant Women) The much-awaited ‘Mamata’ Scheme, a Conditional Electronic Cash Transfer Programme for benefit of pregnant women in the State, has been launched by Shri Naveen Patnaik, Chief Minister, Orissa on 19th October 2011. On this occasion Chief Minister Shri Naveen Patnaik explained that “the Pregnant Women registered their names with Anganwadi centres will receive Rs.5000/- in four installments under this innovative scheme. It aims not only at reducing infant mortality and maternal rates but also helps in improving the nutrition status of Pregnant Women and newborn babies. ‘Mamata’ Scheme will be the largest State Sponsored Scheme after Rs.2/- per Kg. rice Scheme. Nearly 6 lakh Pregnant Women will be covered every year under “Mamata” resulting in an annual disbursement of Rs.350 crore”. Intrauterine nutrition has a strong impact on birth weight and subsequent malnutrition of children. However, often both during pregnancy and lactation, the women are forced to go for work, thereby neglecting their own health and that of the child. Thus proper rest and adequate nutrition during pregnancy and child care are essential not just for the mother’s health and well being but also for the infant. Various studies have shown that low weight infants have less chances of survival and even when they survive they are more prone to diseases, growth retardation and impaired mental development (Lancet Series, 2008). Also, intrauterine growth retardation contributes largely to the high incidence of Low Birth Weights (LBWs). Although Orissa has made considerable progress in curbing the high rates of maternal mortality (258 per 100,000 live births) and infant mortality (65 per 1000) live births (SRS, 2009), a lot still needs to be done before we reach the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). MAMATA – THE SCHEME Goals and Objectives Goals 1. Contribute as a factor in reducing maternal and infant mortality. 3 Orissa Review November - 2011 2. Improve the health and nutrition status of pregnant and lactating mothers and their infants. Objectives 1. To provide partial wage compensation for pregnant and nursing mothers so that they are able to rest adequately during their pregnancy and after delivery. 2. To increase utilization of maternal and child health services, especially ante-natal care, post-natal care and immunization. 3. To improve mother and child care practices, especially exclusive breastfeeding and complementary feeding of infants. 2.1 This scheme is operational in all the 318 rural projects of the State. Pregnant and Lactating women of 19 years of age and above for the first 2 live births, except all Government/Public Sector Undertaking (Central and State) employees and their wives will be covered. Age, number of live births and employment status would be as reported by the beneficiary in the format prescribed. In case of false claim by the beneficiary, the amount paid to her would be recovered as per law. A signed undertaking to this effect will be necessarily taken from the beneficiary at the time of registration under MAMATA. 2.2 Beneficiry Registration: 1. To avail the benefits under this scheme, a pregnant woman has to register herself at the AWC/ mini AWC to which she belongs. 2. For all new cases
