Bhagwant Mann government launches one of India’s largest school-based menstrual health education initiatives for adolescent girls

Officials said the initiative is aimed at ensuring that menstruation never becomes a barrier to girls’ education, confidence, participation, or wellbeing in school life. The programme aligns with the spirit of the Supreme Court of India’s observations recognising that menstrual health and hygiene are directly linked to dignity, education, and equality for adolescent girls.
