Primary data was collected with self-structured schedule from 180 beneficiaries’ parents and 30 anganwadi workers. The overall knowledge index of rural mothers and rural fathers about Bhagyalaxmi scheme was 43.30 and 41.68 respectively. The overall knowledge index of urban mothers and fathers about Bhagyalaxmi scheme was 40.31 and 44.75 respectively. The overall knowledge with regard to anganwadi workers about Bhagyalaxmi scheme index was 81.30. There was no significant difference observed between the overall knowledge of rural and urban beneficiaries’ parents about Bhagyalaxmi scheme. Significant difference was found in case of knowledge of anganwadi workers and all the other four groups as indicated by ‘F’ value (89.10*). 97.78 per cent of rural beneficiaries’ mothers and cent per cent of the rural beneficiaries’ fathers had more favorable attitude towards Bhagyalaxmi scheme. Cent per cent of the urban beneficiaries’ parents and anganwadi workers had more favorable attitude towards Bhagyalaxmi scheme. There was positive and significant relationship found between knowledge and education of the beneficiaries’ mothers, whereas in case of beneficiaries’ fathers education and mass media participation had positive and highly significant relationship with knowledge. Beneficiaries’ parents expressed constraints of delay in getting the bond. The constraints faced by anganwadi workers were excessive record maintenance and heavy work load after implementation of Bhagyalaxmi scheme. Suggestions given by the beneficiaries’ parents were benefit amount should be increased and the bonds should be issued in time. Anganwadi workers also suggested to increase the incentives amount as well as to provide the incentives amount in time.en_US
