¶ 01 Hon. Speaker, my first supplementary is this. There is a serious issue regarding the office allowance for Public Health Midwives. It is only Rs. 250. Those operating in semi-urban, urban, and rural settings face severe hardship. Will the Government revise this? Also, under the “Nila Sevana/Nila Piyasa” initiatives in villages, will you facilitate office space for them?
