The Karnataka High Court recently observed that it appreciates that the State health department is focussing its attention on various aspects of Covid-19 (second wave) but it cannot ignore the SUCHI scheme as such. The court reiterated that the SUCHI scheme for adolescent girls for the age group between 10 to 19 years, is in order to ensure that such girls don’t miss out attendance in schools on their menstruation days and in order to ensure their health and hygiene and thereby attendance of girls in schools.
