Can India prevent 200
children dying every hour?
It is estimated that India lost 1.8 million children
under five in 2008. That is more than 200 child deaths
every hour, each day, or more than three deaths every
minute. Out of about 25 million babies born every year
in India, one million die. Most who survive do not get
to grow up and develop well. About 48 per cent are
stunted (sub-normal height) and 43 per cent are
under-weight. Additionally, about one-third of babies
are born with a low birth weight of less than 2,500
grams.[Read Full Story....]
