evidence: The Government of India has already devised and implemented various National Programmes and Schemes to improve maternal health and thus, eventually prevent maternal deaths. Janani Suraksha Yojana, Pradhan Mantri Surakshit Matritva Abhiyan, Pradhan Mantri Matru Vandana Yojana, and other measures like LaQshya guidelines are being vigorously enforced all over the country. Maternal Death Reviews and Audits are conducted at institutional and district levels to identify the preventable factors and delays in care. Free ambulance services for mothers and neonates and various incentives throughout pregnancy as well as after institutional delivery are provided through these initiatives. Medical Officers, health workers, and other personnel involved at the grassroots level are being trained and sensitized to improve the quality of care meted out at the local level.
