5 Following clarifications given by the participants on following findings: 1. When asked about the lag between ANC 1 and subsequent services; BCG and subsequent immunizations, they answered that the services were provided but not reported due to poor or non availability of internet connection and also due to problem in data collection from the ANMs. 2. The issue of sending and receiving the SMS was raised as due to security reasons sending and receiving SMS s on the prepaid numbers is not allowed. Even the SMS sent from a post-paid number of J&K will not be received by a prepaid number of J&K. 3. As in difficult areas, the phone connectivity is not possible that is why the number of beneficiary with self-phone number was very less. 4. The schedule of ANC services was not clear to the participants, which was made clear to them. 5. The multiple registrations of ANMs/ ASHAs of all the two respective districts were shown and discussed with the participants and they were asked to identify the mistakes at the end of the presentation. 4
