Abstract

Maternal Mortality Ratio (MMR) in India was exceptionally high in 1990 with 556 women dying during child birth per hundred thousand live births. Approximately 1.38 lakh women were dying every year on account of complications related to pregnancy and child birth. The global MMR at the time was much lower at 385. There has, however, been an accelerated decline in MMR in India. MMR in the country has declined to 167 (2011-13) against a global MMR of 216 (2015).
