The government had introduced Nyano Jhola programme aimed at reducing the number of infant deaths due to cold and infection across the country.

Under the programme, the state has been providing a pair of Bhoto and daura, gloves and socks, cap, napkin and wrappers for an infant and a gown for a mother for use in breastfeeding. Only babies that are born in district hospitals and community birthing centres have been provided with the goods which can be used for up to three months.
