विवरण
The population of Parsis (Zoroastrians), a notified minority community under the National Commission of Minorities Act 1992, has declined from 1,14,000 in 1941 to 57,264 in 2011 as per Census data. In order to arrest the decline in population and reverse the trend, the Government of India through the Ministry of Minority Affairs (MoMA) formulated the Jiyo Parsi scheme in September 2013.
The scheme has three components:
i) Medical Assistance – to provide financial assistance for medical treatment under standard medical protocol;
ii) Health of Community – to provide financial assistance to Parsi couples towards childcare and assistance to dependent elderly; and iii) Advocacy – to create awareness among the younger generation of marriageable age and young couples to make efforts to contain the population decline of the community and to seek early diagnosis and treatment where necessary.
Under the Medical component, assistance is provided for infertility treatment upto a maximum Rs. 6 lakh or actual expenditure; other medical expenses (after conception) towards childbearing upto a maximum of Rs. 4 lakh and post-natal (from birth till six weeks) care up to Rs 2.50 lakh depending upon the annual family income. Under the Health of Community component, financial assistance is available to Parsi couples to take care of existing children and the newborn child(ren) at the rate of Rs. 8,000/- per month till the age of 18 years and dependent elderly family members at the rate of Rs. 10,000/- per month per dependent elderly (aged 60 yrs or more) depending upon the annual family income.
