One of the Heaviest Decline in MMR as seen through AHS in case of Odisha State of India

According to Annual Health Survey, Maternal Mortality Ratio (MMR) in Odisha state, which stood at 237 per lakh of live births in year 2010-11, declined to 277 per lakh of live births in year 2011-12 i.e. by 40 points.  The same was 303 as seen through SRS in the years 2004-06.

The same may be a result of very effective implementation of the Central Scheme of Janani Suraksha Yojana etc.  

Heaviest Decline in MMR as seen through AHS in case of Rajasthan State of India

According to Annual Health Survey, Maternal Mortality Ratio (MMR) in Rajasthan state, which stood at 331 per lakh of live births in year 2010-11, declined to 264 per lakh of live births in year 2011-12 i.e. by 67 points.  The same was 388 as seen through SRS in the years 2004-06.

The same may be a result of very effective implementation of the Central Scheme of Janani Suraksha Yojana etc.  

Further Decline in Maternal Mortality Ratio in Bihar State in India

According to Annual Health Survey, Maternal Mortality Ratio (MMR) in Bihar state, which stood at 305 per lakh of live births in year 2010-11, declined to 294 per lakh of live births in year 2011-12 i.e. by 11 points.  The same was 312 (combined for Bihar and Jharkhand) as seen through SRS in the years 2004-06.

The same may be a result of effective implementation of the Central Scheme of Janani Suraksha Yojana etc.  The MMR level is low as compared to the State of Assam, Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh, but much more needs to be done if we compare the same with that of other eastern states of India like West Bengal, Odisha and even Jharkhand.

Further Heavy Decline in Maternal Mortality Ratio in Uttar Pradesh State in India

According to Annual Health Survey, maternal mortality ratio in Uttar Pradesh state, which stood at 345 per lakh of live births in year 2010-11, declined to 300 per lakh of live births in year 2011-12 i.e. by 45 points.  The same was 440 (combined for UP and Uttarakhand) as seen through SRS in the years 2004-06.

The same may be a result of effective implementation of maternal safety programmes in Uttar Pradesh i.e. by effectively implementing the Central Scheme of Janani Suraksha Yojana etc

Considerable decline in maternal mortality ratio in Madhya Pradesh State in India

According to annual health survey, maternal mortality ratio in Madhya Pradesh state, which stood at 310 per lakh of live births in year 2010-11, declined to 277 per lakh of live births in year 2011-12 i.e. by 33 points.  The same was 335 (combined for MP and Chhatisgarh) as seen through SRS in the years 2004-06.

The same may be a result of effective implementation of maternal safety programmes in Madhya Pradesh i.e. by effectively implementing the Central Scheme of Janani Suraksha Yojana etc. 

Now a target has been set under Mamta Abhiyan launched by the present Chief Minister on National Safe Motherhood Day to further reduce maternal mortality ratio to 200 points during year 2013-14. 

Seventy Four million persons suffer from a Type of Fever in a period of fifteen days in India

One Large Scale Annual Health Survey has been conducted in the year 2010-11 for nine States namely, Bihar, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Uttaranchal, Chhattisgarh and Jharkhand and Assam.  Fact Sheets for the same were released.  Here below the prevalence of this Acute Illness in these States have been given per one lakh (one tenth of a million) persons. 

.

States	Fever (All Types)	Population (2011)	Estimate of Persons Suffered from any type of Fever (2011)
Chhattisgarh	5193	25545198	1326562
Madhya Pradesh	5699	72626809	4139002
Uttar Pradesh	7571	199812341	15127792

Rajasthan	2165	68548437	1484074
Bihar	7111	104099452	7402512
Jharkhand	3856	32988134	1272022
Assam	4978	31205576	1553414
Total of Nine States	6078	586344507	35640042

Using population estimates from Census 2011, the number of people suffered with any type of Fever during a period of fifteen days in these nine states has been estimated around 35.6 millions in these nine states for the year 2011.  This is the average effected persons by a Fever in these states of India within duration of 15 days of the year.  Occurrence of Fever in Uttar Pradesh and Bihar states was to more than 22.5 million persons in a period of fifteen days. If one assumes the average prevalence rate of these nine states as the prevalence rate in India, the average number of persons affected by a fever in India would be around 73.6 millions in a period of fifteen days during a year.

Chhattisgarh	2877	25545198	734935
Madhya Pradesh	1341	72626809	973926

Assam	3182	31205576	992961
Total of Nine States	2213	586344507	12976898

Using population estimates from Census 2011, the number of people suffered from ARI during a period of fifteen days has been estimated around 13 millions in these nine states for the year 2011.  This is the average effected persons by ARI in these states of India within duration of 15 days of the year.  Occurrence of ARI in Uttar Pradesh and Bihar states was to more than nine million persons in a period of fifteen days. If one assumes the average prevalence rate of these nine states as the prevalence rate in India, the average number of persons affected by this disease in India would be around 26.8 millions in a period of fifteen days during a year.
