The Odisha government has implemented maternity leave of 180 days for female employees and 15 days of paternity leave for male employees who become parents through surrogacy. This policy applies to both surrogate and commissioning parents, provided they have less than two surviving children. The initiative aligns with the central government's recent extension of similar benefits, promoting equal treatment and support for families regardless of childbirth method.
