The implementation of JSY in India completed nearly 25 years since from its inception. Studies on beneficiary of the scheme based on various nationally provided data set indicates its persistence level over socio-economic inequality. Present study concerns such inequality and utilisation in terms of most recent NFHS-5 data set.

Methods

The study considers purification of data by deleting large and influential observations and use logistic regressions with robust standard error and inequality measurement technique to observe the condition of ultimate beneficiaries.

Results

Study observes an improvement in terms favourable distribution towards marginalised section of the society. Illiterate mothers benefitted most probably for the health manager intermediation. Media exposure and distance from health facilities are found significant contribution.
