dc.description.abstract	The goal of reducing maternal mortality is tracked through the proportion of births to skilled attendants. Janani Evam Bal Suraksha Yojana in Bihar is an initiative in this direction. The current scheme provides cash incentives to all the mothers delivering in any government health facility. The scheme has contributed a lot in adding to the number of institutional deliveries and is expected to help in reducing infant mortality too. The factors contributing to the success of the scheme are cash incentives, availability of doctors, paramedics, and drugs. However, it still has a long way to go to ensure quality of services.	en
