Kerala sees least number of maternal deaths; Assam sees most

India has seen a decline of six per cent in the number of maternal mortalities, according to latest figures released by the Registrar General of India. While the Sample Registration Survey (SRS) had recorded a Maternal Mortality Ratio (MMR) of India of 130 in 2014-2016, it has declined to 122 in 2015-17, the Registrar said in a statement on Friday. The MMR is derived as a proportion of maternal deaths per 1,00,000 live births reported under the SRS.

A sample of 64, 75, 970 females between 15 to 49 years was studied between 2015-17. While there were about 4, 29, 173 live births in this population, 525 mothers died during this time, the Registrar noted.
