Rajiv Gandhi Scheme for Empowerment of Adolescent Girls (SABLA)

iAbout This Scheme

Launched on 19 November 2010 by merging the Kishori Shakti Yojana (KSY) and Balika Samridhi Yojana (BSY), SABLA addressed adolescent girls aged 11-18 years through the ICDS Anganwadi platform. It provided nutrition supplementation (600 kcal per day for out-of-school girls), iron and folic acid tablets, life skills education, vocational training guidance, and reproductive and sexual health information. SABLA was replaced by the Beti Bachao Beti Padhao-led RKSK (Rashtriya Kishor Swasthya Karyakram) framework in 2014.
