New Delhi: The Ministry of Women and Child Development on Friday announced a change in the toll-free helpline number for POSHAN and the Pradhan Mantri Matru Vandana Yojana (PMMVY).

The new number will make it easier for citizens to remember and access support services.

“The new helpline number 1515 will be live from November 1, replacing the existing number 14408,” the Ministry said.

“This change has been introduced to simplify recall and improve accessibility for beneficiaries seeking assistance under POSHAN and PMMVY schemes,” it added.

The Ministry noted that as the integration is in process, users may experience a brief transition period.

“During this time, if callers are unable to connect to the new number 1515, they are advised to continue using the old number 14408,” it said.
