Among 28% who did not received FP methods 7.14% don’t know about the CCs, 42.85% don’t know about the given services and 50% didn’t received the service due to shame. It has been found that, Immunization of 15-49 years female, antenatal and postnatal care was found 100% & only one CC had facility of emergency obstetric care. Nutritional and immunization service for children was 100% and literate person knows about FP methods were 95.4%.
