Only 57 (42.50%) & 59(49.17%) women had taken two doses of TT immunization and ≥100 IFA tablets respectively. Regular CSSI helped to increase the ANC visits 25(83.33%), helped to confine delivery either at the RHTC or private hospital 29(96.70%).Maximum mothers i.e. 17(90%) and 30(100%) initiated breast feeding within 1 hour and fed colostrums to their baby respectively.
