The total number of JSY beneficiary who have received JSY assistance till date is 95917. Amongst the JSY beneficiaries institutional delivery is 48.5% .The analysis of last three month data on JSY shows an increasing trend in institutional delivery numbers. To be more specific for the months of October, November, December 2006 institutional delivery among JSY beneficiaries is 46.7%, 47.8% and 48 .5% respectively. The CNAA data for the above period for institutional delivery is 51.5%. Based on prelimnary analysis and on our impressions from the field , this increase can be attributed to the cash incentive being disbursed under JSY.
