Reproductive and Child Health (RCH), being a crucial part of public health programmes, Government Of Maharashtra envisages to reach the services to both rural and urban areas.

Hence, Government Of Maharashtra has decided to take concrete steps to overcome these deficiencies through public private partnerships.
