Correct option is A

Sol. In India, at a sub-centre level, Intrauterine Devices (IUDs) are inserted by trained Multi-Purpose Workers (MPW-Female) or Auxiliary Nurse Midwives (ANMs). ASHA workers counsel women on family planning and refer them for IUD insertion but do not perform the procedure themselves.

· ASHA: Incorrect; ASHA workers provide counseling and referrals but do not insert IUDs.
· Both of the above: Incorrect; only MPW/ANMs insert IUDs, not ASHA workers.
· None of the above: Incorrect; MPW-Female/ANMs perform the procedure.
