The birth rate, death rate, infant mortality rate was so high in the past in India and the life expectancy rate was too short in comparison to present day. India covers world’s 16% population, 18% world’s mortality and 20% world’s morbidity but covers only 1% health care investment and 2% GDP. The scenario is quite improved after the independence. But the rural and urban scenario was a mess still today. The Joynagar-I block of Sundarban (belongs to the South 24 Parganas district) was compiled by both the rural and urban part in its arena. This is one of the most important blocks of Indian Sundarban so far the levels of development and close location to Kolkata are concerned. The existing health scenario of the block and its various aspects was highlighted in the paper. | | Keywords : | | |
