Bihar
About
56 percent of births were registered in Bihar (AHS, 2010-11), it being 55
percent in rural and 75 percent in urban. Based on this, only 23 percent were reported
to be having birth certificates in Bihar (22 percent in rural and 32 percent in
urban). Thus, over 40% of the births
registered in Urban Bihar are not being provided with any certificate to that
effect. The system of birth registration
is one of the worst among the EAG states.
Government should see more closely to know the reasons for people not
going for birth registration in this highly populated rural state of
India. Delivery of birth certificates
may have to be strengthened and streamlined. This may further boost the
registration process. This process is
very vital in making predictions of yearly population between two censuses of
this thickly populated state of India.
This state is having the highest density among the major states of India.
Jharkhand
About 46 percent of births were
registered in Jharkhand (AHS, 2010-11), it being 38 percent in rural and 74
percent in urban. Based on this, 24 percent were reported to be having birth
certificates in Jharkhand (17 percent in rural and 44 percent in urban). Thus,
about 30% of the births registered in Urban Jharkhand are not being provided
with any certificate.
Madhya Pradesh
About

75 percent in rural and 86 percent in urban. Based on this, 62 percent were
reported to be having birth certificates in Madhya Pradesh (57 percent in rural
and 77 percent in urban). Compliance to

Jharkhand.
Chhattisgarh

80 percent in rural and 91 percent in urban. Based on this, 41 percent were

percent in rural and 90 percent in urban. Based on this, 30 percent were

percent in rural and 86 percent in urban. Based on this, 43 percent were

45 percent in rural and 56 percent in urban. Based on this, 18 percent were

the reasons for not going for birth registration in this largest state of
India. Delivery of birth certificates
may have to be strengthened and streamlined. This may further boost the
registration process. This process is
very vital in making predictions of yearly population between two censuses of
this thickly populated state of India.
