Dr. C. Chandramouli
Registrar General & Census Commissioner,
India

2. “ Reproductive health and rights are integral to
sustainable development and poverty reduction.
Investing in universal access to reproductive health is
crucial investment in healthy societies and a more
sustainable future”.
– Ban Ki-moon, Secretary-General, UN on World
Population Day, 2012

Population Day, 2012

4. AHS provides key indicators on Reproductive
and Child Health at District level
in 8 EAG States and
Assam
Vital inputs for evidence based intervention and monitoring

5. “ There should be an Annual Health Survey of all
districts which could be published/monitored and
compared against benchmarks”
-Dr. Manmohan Singh, Prime Minister of India – In the meeting
of National Commission of Population, 2005

6. OBJECTIVE OF AHS
 AHS yields a comprehensive, representative and reliable dataset on core
vital indicators including composite ones like IMR, MMR and TFR along
with their co-variates (process and outcome indicators) at the district
level and maps changes therein on an annual basis.
 These benchmarks would help in better and holistic understanding and
timely monitoring of various determinants on well-being and health of
population particularly Reproductive and Child Health.

58. KEY FINDINGS
 Replacement level of TFR 2.1 has been achieved in only 20 out of
284 AHS districts.
 In 164 districts, on an average a woman bears more than 3 children.
 More than half of currently married woman aged 15-49 years are
not using any method of family planning in UP, Jharkhand and Bihar.
 Female Sterilization constitutes the most dominant method of
family planning among the modern methods across all AHS States
except Assam.
 Male Sterilization is the least preferred modern method across all
AHS States.
 At least 1/5th of currently married women are yet to meet their
family planning requirement (Unmet Need) across all AHS States.

59. KEY FINDINGS Contd…
 Marriages among female taking place below legal age (18 years) is
rampant in rural areas as compared to urban areas.
 Despite wider penetration of `Any ANC’, the coverage under `first
trimester ANC’ as well as `3 or more ANCs’ needs further
improvement.
 Poor performance of full ANC is primarily due to low IFA
consumption.
 Universal coverage of JSY remains a concern even in better
performing States like Odisha, MP & Rajasthan; the situation in
Jharkhand & UP needs immediate attention.
 Seven out of every 10 deliveries are `safe’ in Madhya Pradesh,
Rajasthan, Odisha and Assam whereas it is less than 5 in Jharkhand
and Chhattisgarh.

60. KEY FINDINGS Contd…
• In spite of better reach of Post Natal Care to Mothers and New-borns in
Odisha, MP & Rajasthan, every fifth mother has not received any PNC.
• In full immunization, even the better performing States like
Uttarakhand, Chhattisgarh and Rajasthan fall short by 25-30
percentage points in achieving universal coverage.
• Improvement has been noticed in most of the indicators as compared
to NFHS-3 as well as DLHS-3.
• Availability of 63 indicators (co-variates) on various facets of Mother &
Child Care at the district level will help in understanding the dynamics
of composite indicators like IMR, U5MR and MMR.
• For the first time, the data on TFR, Injury, Morbidity, Personal Habits
are available at the district level. This would provide new insight in
evidence-based planning and facilitate appropriate interventional
strategies.

61. WAY FORWARD
• The fieldwork for 1st updation round is over and the indicators on
vital rates reflecting the change vis-à-vis baseline survey are likely
to be released shortly.
• A Component of Clinical-Anthropometric & Bio-chemical (CAB)
Test on a sub-sample basis is scheduled to be introduced in
October.
