On Monday, the Rajasthan health department began distribution of tablets equipped with an e-janswasthya application among ASHAs and ANMs of seven districts – Churu, Dholpur, Jhalawar, Banswara, Jhunjhunu, Pali and Tonk – to improve data collection and overall standard of child and maternal health services in the state. The programme was organised to mark the World Population Day.
