&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Odisha&amp;rsquo;s Ganjam district was declared child marriage-free January 3, 2022, district collector Vijay Amruta Kulange said.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&amp;ldquo;We decided to declare the district free of child marriage after collecting detailed information about all weddings that took place in 2020 and 2021,&amp;rdquo; Kulange said at an event organised at the district headquarters.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The district administration has increased the reward for people informing about the occurrence of child marriage to Rs 50,000 from Rs 5,000.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Ganjam is the first district in the state that has been declared child marriage-free.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The district has been known to be severely affected by child marriages. In the last few years, however, required measures taken by the administration seem to have produced desired results, said Kulange.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The district administration launched Nirbhaya Kadhi, an innovative awareness campaign for the empowerment of adolescents and to prevent child marriage, in September 2019. Anganwadi workers and accredited social health activists (ASHA) organised meetings of adolescent girls at the village level every month to educate them about the ill impact of child marriage.&lt;/p&gt;
