Mausam Noor’s supplementary questions, to her starred question, during Question Hour on whether children of incarcerated parents are covered under Integrated Child Protection Scheme (ICPS), and whether the government can provide the religious backgrounds of those who’ve benefitted from ICPS, especially from minority communities

Sir, I would like to ask the hon. Minister whether the Government can inform if the children of parents incarcerating in jails and institutions are covered under the Integrated Child Protection Scheme (ICPS). If yes, details of children beneficiaries may be given. If no, whether the Government aims to extend the coverage of the Scheme to children of incarcerated parents? Sir, whether the Government can provide information regarding the religious background of children who have benefited from the programmes being run under ICPS, especially the share of children belonging to the minority communities.
