description |
India is the third largest economy
and has the second largest population in the world. It
achieved millennium development goal (MDG) on poverty
reduction; however, gender inequality still persists.
Maternal mortality rate is 190 deaths per 100,000 live
births, representing a 65 percent decline from 1990.
Fertility fell to 2.5, while contraceptive prevalence rate
increased to nearly 55 percent. Seventy-four percent of
women sought antenatal care (ANC) from a qualified provider
and 52 percent of births were attended by qualified
providers. Wide gaps in contraceptive prevalence rate (CPR)
and access to skilled-birth attendance remain by geography
and wealth quintile. India will focus on preventing unwanted
pregnancies especially among adolescents; improving
demand-side strategies; strengthening access and quality in
public and private sectors; improving antenatal, intranatal,
and postnatal care; strengthening monitoring and evaluation
(M and E) systems and reducing inequities; and improving nutrition. |
