The study evaluates the effectiveness of the Pradhan Mantri Matru Vandana Yojana (PMMVY) in enhancing maternal health among tribal women in Poonch District, examining factors such as age and educational level that influence awareness, accessibility, and utilization of the program. Data were collected from 200 respondents through structured surveys, focusing on awareness levels, utilization rates, and perceived impacts of PMMVY on healthcare and nutritional support during pregnancy. Results indicate that although 70% of respondents are aware of PMMVY, only half have accessed its benefits, highlighting existing barriers.
