 +<WRAP info>
 +**Short version.** **Pradhan Mantri Matru Vandana Yojana (PMMVY)** pays **₹5,000 in 3 instalments** to pregnant women + lactating mothers for first child, administered by **Min of Women & Child Development → CDPO → AWW**. If your benefit is stuck, RTI to **PIO of CDPO + state DPO + MWCD** with **₹10 fee + §7(5) BPL waiver** legally forces written reply within **30 days** under §7(1) RTI Act 2005.
