</li>
<li>
<p><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">The requirement to produce the husband’s Aadhaar card results in excluding women who may be living with men they are not married to, single mothers and those who may be staying at their natal home. </span></span></p>
</li>
<li>
<p><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">Women must also have the address of their marital home on their Aadhaar card, which often results in newly weds being either left out or forced to go from door-to-door when pregnant and needing rest and care.</span></span></p>
</li>
<li>
<p><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">The survey findings also highlight the need to pay greater attention to the special needs of pregnancy such as good food, extra rest and health care.</span></span></p>
