For pregnant women, PM Modi launched the U-WIN portal, designed to fully digitalize the vaccination process for pregnant women and infants.

This initiative aims to ensure timely administration of life-saving vaccines for pregnant women and children up to 16 years old, protecting them against 12 vaccine-preventable diseases. With an aim to raise health awareness, PM launched a nationwide campaign, “Desh Ka Prakriti Parikshan Abhiyan.”
