As per Sample
Registration System (SRS), 2013 reports published by Registrar General of India
the Infant Mortality Rate (IMR) of India is 40 per 1000 live births and as per
Sample Registration System (SRS), 2011-13 reports Maternal Mortality Ratio
(MMR) is 167 per 1,00,000 live births in the Country.
Under the
Millennium Development Goal (MDG) 4 target is to reduce Child Mortality by
two-third between 1990 and 2015. In case of India, it translates into a goal of
reducing Infant mortality rate from 88 per thousand live births in 1990 to 29
in 2015.
Under the
Millennium Development Goal (MDG) 5, the target is to reduce Maternal Mortality
Ratio (MMR) by three quarters between 1990 & 2015. This translates to
reducing the MMR from 560 in 1990 to 140 in 2015.
State/UT-wise

SPIP-
State Programme Implementation Plan
Based
on the UN Inter–Agency Expert Group’s MMR estimates in the publication “Trends
in Maternal Mortality: 1990 to 2013", the target for MMR is estimated to
be 140 per 1,00,000 live births by the year 2015 taking a baseline of 560 per
100,000 live births in 1990. If the MMR declines at the same pace, India will
achieve an MMR of 140 per 100,000 live births by 2015 and achieve the MDG
target.
As per the
information provided in the same report, 52 countries have MMR higher than that
of India. Details are given below:-

Mortality: 1990 to 2013".
The Government
of India has not undertaken any study to assess the ongoing programme/schemes
to reduce the IMR and MMR. However, regular supportive supervision visits and
Common Review Mission (CRM) have been conducted to assess the progress of
ongoing interventions for improvement of infant and maternal health outcomes
annually in the States/UTs.
Based on these
assessments, States/UTs are guided to prepare Annual Program Implementation
Plan (PIP) to focus on priority interventions to improve infant and maternal
health outcomes in each State/UT.
To sharpen the
focus on the low performing districts, 184 High Priority Districts (HPDs) have
been identified for implementation of Reproductive Maternal Newborn Child
Health+ Adolescent (RMNCH+A) interventions for achieving improved maternal and
child health outcomes.
The Health Minister, Shri J P Nadda stated this in a written reply
in the LokSabha here today.
