J&K among lowest-paying UTs for Anganwadi incentives
Srinagar: Jammu and Kashmirs Anganwadi Workers (AWWs) and Anganwadi Helpers (AWHs) are among the lowest paid in the country when it comes to additional incentives provided by the Union Territories and States, according to data presented by the Union Ministry of Women and Child Development in the Lok Sabha. The Jammu and Kashmir Government provides a monthly top-up of Rs 600 to Anganwadi Workers and Rs 300 to Helpers, in addition to the Centres honorarium of Rs 4,500 and Rs 2,250 respectively. AWWs and AWHs also receive performance-linked incentives of Rs 500 and Rs 250 per month. With the UT contribution included, an Anganwadi Worker in Jammu and Kashmir receives Rs 5,600 per month, while a Helper gets Rs 2,550, excluding performance-based incentives. The data revealed that Jammu and Kashmirs additional payment of Rs 600 for AWWs is the second-lowest among States and UTs providing such incentives. For Helpers, the Rs 300 top-up also remains among the lowest in the country. In comparison, several states provide substantially higher incentives. Kerala offers an additional Rs 8,300 to AWWs and Rs 6,800 to AWHs, while Tamil Nadu provides Rs 9,780 and Rs 6,270 respectively. Haryana gives Rs 10,250 to AWWs and Rs 5,650 to AWHs. Goa reported the highest additional incentive range, with AWWs receiving Rs 15,000 to Rs 23,000. The Ministry informed Parliament that the central honorarium for Anganwadi Workers was last revised in October 2018, when payments were increased from Rs 3,000 to Rs 4,500 for AWWs and from Rs 1,500 to Rs 2,250 for AWHs. The Centre stated that States and UTs are free to provide additional financial incentives from their own resources, resulting in significant variations across regions. The Ministry said Anganwadi Workers and Helpers are honorary workers engaged from local communities and provide services related to child care, nutrition and development under Mission Saksham Anganwadi and Poshan 2.0. The government also highlighted welfare measures for workers, including annual leave, maternity benefits, insurance coverage, healthcare benefits under Ayushman Bharat and expanded promotion opportunities. Under the scheme, 50 per cent of Anganwadi Worker posts can be filled through eligible Helpers, while 50 per cent of Supervisor posts can be filled through promotion of eligible Workers. The Centre has also encouraged States and UTs to enrol Anganwadi Workers and Helpers under pension and insurance schemes, besides providing smartphones and the Poshan Tracker application to improve monitoring and digitisation of Anganwadi services.
Over 3.6 lakh J&K homes yet to get tap water: Center
Srinagar, Jul 30: More than 3.60 lakh rural households in Jammu and Kashmir are yet to receive Functional Household Tap Connections (FHTCs) under the Centres flagship Jal Jeevan Mission (JJM), according to data presented in the Lok Sabha on Thursday. As per the Ministry of Jal Shakti, 15,64,303 out of 19,24,945 rural households in Jammu and Kashmir have been provided tap water connections, while 3,60,642 households still remain uncovered as of July 18, 2026. The information was shared by Minister of State for Jal Shakti V Somanna in a written reply to an unstarred question in the Lok Sabha regarding universal coverage under the Jal Jeevan Mission. The Ministry stated that the Jal Jeevan Mission (Har Ghar Jal), launched in August 2019, aims to provide every rural household with an assured supply of potable drinking water through tap connections at a service level of 55 litres per capita per day (LPCD), conforming to BIS:10500 standards on a regular and long-term basis. It further informed Parliament that the Union Cabinet has approved the extension of Jal Jeevan Mission 2.0 till December 2028, with an enhanced financial outlay and a restructured implementation framework focused on structural reforms in the rural drinking water sector. The Ministry noted that drinking water is a state subject, making the planning, implementation, operation and maintenance of water supply schemes the responsibility of the respective State and Union Territory governments. The Centre, it said, provides only technical and financial assistance under the mission. Nationally, the government said that when the mission was launched in 2019, only 3.24 crore rural households (16.72 per cent) had tap water connections. As of July 18, 2026, the number has increased to 15.89 crore households, covering 82.09 per cent of the countrys 19.36 crore rural households. According to the state-wise data, West Bengal has the highest number of uncovered rural households at 75.74 lakh, followed by Rajasthan (44.02 lakh), Kerala (31.74 lakh), Madhya Pradesh (27.85 lakh) and Jharkhand (27.84 lakh). Jammu and Kashmir accounts for 3.60 lakh uncovered households, while neighbouring Ladakh has only 699 households yet to receive tap water connections. The Ministry did not specify a separate timeline for Jammu and Kashmir but said the missions overall target is to achieve universal rural tap water coverage by December 2028 under the extended Jal Jeevan Mission 2.0.

J&K anganwadi workers among lowest-paid in India, receive Rs 600 monthly UT top-up: Centre
Srinagar, Jul 31: Anganwadi workers in Jammu and Kashmir receive one of the lowest additional honorarium top-ups in the country, with the Union Territory providing just 600 per month to Anganwadi Workers (AWWs) and 300 to Anganwadi Helpers (AWHs), the Union Government informed Parliament on Friday. The information was shared by the Ministry of Women and Child Development in a written reply in the Lok Sabha, highlighting wide disparities in additional financial support extended by States and Union Territories to Anganwadi workers under the Mission Saksham Anganwadi and Poshan 2.0 scheme. According to the ministry, the Centre provides a monthly honorarium of 4,500 to Anganwadi Workers and 2,250 to Anganwadi Helpers under the cost-sharing arrangement with States and UTs. In addition, workers receive performance-linked incentives of 500 and 250, respectively. With the UT administration's additional top-up, an Anganwadi Worker in Jammu and Kashmir receives 5,600 per month, excluding the performance-linked incentive, while an Anganwadi Helper receives 2,550. The data shows that Jammu and Kashmir's 600 monthly top-up for AWWs is among the lowest in the country. Nagaland provides no additional top-up, while neighbouring Ladakh offers 1,300 to Anganwadi Workers and 650 to Helpers. In contrast, several States provide significantly higher incentives. Kerala pays an additional 8,300 to Anganwadi Workers and 6,800 to Helpers, Tamil Nadu provides 9,780 and 6,270 respectively, while Haryana offers 10,250 and 5,650. Goa tops the list, with additional payments ranging between 15,000 and 23,000 for Anganwadi Workers. The ministry informed Parliament that the central honorarium was last revised on October 1, 2018, when it was increased from 3,000 to 4,500 for Anganwadi Workers and from 1,500 to 2,250 for Helpers. States and UTs are free to provide additional incentives from their own resources. Responding to questions on improving service conditions, the ministry said no decision has been taken to further enhance the central honorarium or restore travel allowances. The Centre reiterated that Anganwadi Workers and Helpers are honorary workers drawn from local communities who provide child care, nutrition and early childhood development services under the Integrated Child Development Services framework. The ministry also highlighted welfare measures available to Anganwadi workers, including 20 days of annual leave, 180 days of paid maternity leave, healthcare coverage of up to 5 lakh under Ayushman Bharat PM-JAY, eligibility for the Pradhan Mantri Shram Yogi Maandhan pension scheme, and insurance coverage under the Pradhan Mantri Jeevan Jyoti Bima Yojana and Pradhan Mantri Suraksha Bima Yojana. It further said promotion avenues have been expanded, with 50 per cent of Anganwadi Worker posts to be filled through promotion from eligible Helpers and half of Supervisor posts reserved for experienced Anganwadi Workers.
