The National Family Welfare Programme was launched in 1952 in India to promote family planning and improve maternal and child health. It provides reproductive healthcare services, conducts immunization programs, and distributes medical supplies and equipment to primary healthcare centers. The objectives are to reduce population growth, improve access to family planning services, and lower infant and maternal mortality rates. Services include antenatal, natal, and postnatal care for mothers; immunizations for children; family planning methods; and emergency obstetric care. The program aims to improve quality of life through these comprehensive welfare services.
