&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Infant mortality is the end-result of a whole chain of interlinked ground-level challenges. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;In a week when the word &amp;ldquo;fringe&amp;rdquo; is a headline-grabber, let me start by saying that updates about the country&amp;rsquo;s infant mortality rate (IMR) is not a fringe issue.

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Here&amp;rsquo;s why: The infant mortality rate, or the number of infant deaths out of every 1,000 live births, is a telling marker of the overall health and well-being of a population. Iniquitous access to medicine, skilled healthcare providers, clean water and nutritious food affect everyone&amp;rsquo;s health, but together they can dramatically impact infant mortality rates.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The latest data from the Registrar-General of India shows that India&amp;rsquo;s infant mortality rate is 28 (28 infant deaths per 1,000 live births). The reference year is 2020. The good news: we are saving more babies. Overall, the IMR at the all-India level has come down from 44 to 28 in the past decade. The corresponding dip in rural areas is 48 to 31; for urban areas, the figure is down from 29 to 19.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The grim news: the national average masks stark disparities between different states, and between the city and the village. Progress is slow in those states where infants have been dying in large numbers.&lt;/p&gt;

India’s infant mortality rate isn’t a fringe issue -Patralekha Chatterjee

-Deccan Chronicle The latest data from the Registrar-General of India shows that India’s infant mortality rate is 28 (28 infant deaths per 1,000 live births) Infant mortality is the end-result of a whole chain of interlinked ground-level challenges.   In a week when the word “fringe” is a headline-grabber, let me start by saying that updates about the country’s infant mortality rate (IMR) is not a fringe issue. It is central to a country’s future and its present. Here’s why: The infant mortality rate, or the number of infant deaths out of every 1,000 live births, is a telling marker of the overall health and well-being of a population. Iniquitous access to medicine, skilled healthcare providers, clean water and nutritious food affect everyone’s health, but together they can dramatically impact infant mortality rates. The latest data from the Registrar-General of India shows that India’s infant mortality rate is 28 (28 infant deaths per 1,000 live births). The reference year is 2020. The good news: we are saving more babies. Overall, the IMR at the all-India level has come down from 44 to 28 in the past decade. The corresponding dip in rural areas is 48 to 31; for urban areas, the figure is down from 29 to 19. The grim news: the national average masks stark disparities between different states, and between the city and the village. Progress is slow in those states where infants have been dying in large numbers. Please click here to read more.
