After the introduction of National Rural Health Mission (NRHM), the practice of institutional

delivery has seen up throughout India. The approach paper of Twelfth Plan says that, between 2006 and 2009, the percentage of institutional delivery has increased from 54 to 73 percent in India.

In Bihar the situation has improved considerably in the recent years. This is partly because of the improvement of health delivery system, and an additional incentive provided under Janani Evam Bal Suraksha Yojana (JBSY) has made this improvement possible.

The first spurt in institutional delivery was observed in 2008-09 when 11.4 lakh children were born in some health institutions, recording an increase of 36.3 percent over the previous year. In subsequent year, the increase is not as large, but it has been steady.

The growth in institutional delivery in subsequent years were 9.1 percent (2009-10), 11.1 percent (2010-11) and 3.3 percent (2011-12). According to the latest figure (2011-12), the total number of children born in health institution is 14.3 lakh. It should be mentioned here that JBSY has played an important role in promoting institutional delivery in Bihar. Under this scheme, the mothers are provided with a cash subsidy to cover the travel cost and other expenses, relating to the birth of a child. The large number of ASHA workers whose services reach upto the village level have contributed appreciately in the effective implementation of JBSY.

That the ASHA workers have worked effectively for promoting safe delivery in health

institution is indicated when one notices the extent of institutional delivery in different districts

of the state.

These two shares are nearly equal to each other, more so in 2011-12. This only indicates that the spread of institutional delivery is high not only in the districts which are economically and socially relatively advanced, but even in those districts of north Bihar which are decidedly disadvantaged.
