The reports highlight significant improvements in maternal and child healthcare in Namsai, driven by Village Health and Nutrition Days (VHND), increased institutional deliveries, and upgraded hospital facilities.

Key Developments:
VHND Impact: Monthly health camps providing antenatal checkups, immunization, and nutrition counseling have reduced vaccine dropouts and increased awareness.
Rise in Institutional Deliveries: Births in hospitals increased from 1,342 (2020-21) to 1,714 (2021-22), while home deliveries dropped. Awareness campaigns and the Birth Companion Project (offering financial aid to delivery attendants) played a key role.
Labour Room Upgrades: The renovation of Namsai District Hospital, supported by UNICEF, improved hygiene, comfort, and introduced C-sections, eliminating the need for women to travel 70 km to Assam.
Community Stories: Women like Niroda Orang and Deepali Chowlu shifted from risky home births to institutional deliveries, showcasing growing trust in healthcare services.
These efforts have strengthened rural healthcare, empowered women, and set a model for similar regions, proving that sustained interventions can drive lasting change.
