Abstract: India, with a population exceeding1.39 billion, has surpassed China as the most populated country. Family planning is integral in achieving population stabilization and enhancing maternal and newborn health outcomes. This study aimed to assess the knowledge and practice of modern contraceptive methods among 150 antenatal mothers attending Gynae OPD, JNIMS, Imphal, using quantitative cross - sectional design. Findings revealed that 46% of participants had inadequate knowledge and 66.6% demonstrated poor practices regarding contraception. A significant association was observed between knowledge, practice and demographic variables (p<0.05), with a positive correlation (r = 0.423) between knowledge and practice scores.
