The snowball sampling method was adopted for the study. A tool in the form of a 5-pointer rating scale with three categories viz. Awareness, Perception and Implementation along with two dimensions in the Awareness category, four dimensions in the Perception category and one dimension in the Implementation category was constructed to collect data with a total of 23 items which were related to majorly three mentioned categories and demographic information. Frequency data analysis and the Kruskal-Wallis H test were used for analysis.
