India's anti-AIDS fight is all set to receive the highest increase in fund allocation for the 12th five-year Plan.

At a time when the adult HIV prevalence at the national level has continued its steady decline from estimated level of 0.41% in 2000 through 0.36% in 2006 to 0.31% in 2009, the department of AIDS Control is all set to see a 626% increase - from Rs 1,500 crore in the 11th Plan to Rs 9,394 crore for 2012-17. The estimated number of new annual HIV infections has declined by more than 50% over the past decade. It is estimated that the nation had approximately 1.2 lakh new HIV infections in 2009 as against 2.7 lakh in 2000.

The overall health budget will see a 333% increase — from Rs 84,339 crore to Rs 280,551 crore — according to the latest paper sent by the Planning Commission to the health ministry.

Interestingly, the Indian Council of Medical Research has not been allocated a single penny.
