Info

The State of Female Infanticide in Himachal Pradesh Economic Sectors (Non-Public Sector Undertakings) for the year ending on 31 March 2014, the Government of Himachal Pradesh identified only 18,222 beneficiaries during 2011-14 for post-birth grant while 80,554 beneficiaries were identified during the same period for scholarship. 62 Therefore, a comparison of the total number of BPL families (i.e. 3,01,031 families) with the total number of beneficiaries (i.e. 18,222 during FY 2011-12, 2012-13 & 2013-14) reveals that only 2.01 per cent (6,051 families) out of total BPL families have been covered under the post-birth grant benefit. The figure and percentage of BPL families who have been covered under the post-birth grant of the BHAY has been calculated on the assumption that each of the beneficiaries came from different families despite the fact that two girls from a BPL family are eligible for the benefits under the scheme. The replies provided by the State government of Himachal Pradesh under the Right to Information Act, 2005 to the ACHR show that the CAG report was generous to the State Government. Under the Beti Hai Anmol Yojana only a total of 5,930 were given post birth assistance and about 8005 girls were given scholarships under the scheme in 12 districts i.e. Kullu Manali, Bilaspur, Mandi, Kangra, Shimla, Chamba, Una, Kinnaur, Solan, Kandaghat and Lahaul & Spiti from 2010 to 2015. 63 62.
