"Maternal Mortality Ratio of India has declined from 167 in 2011-2013 to 130 in 2014-2016. It is because of the joint efforts of the Ministry and the States. I congratulate the States and all stakeholders associated with this achievement, "Shri Choubey said.

Smt Preeti Sudan, Secretary (Health), Shri Manoj Jhalani, AS & MD and Dr. S Venkatesh, DGHS was also present at the occasion.

Addressing the participants, Shri Ashwini Kumar Choubey said that 60% to 70% of health work in the States is done through NHM. NHM has a huge responsibility in making India healthy and disease free. He further said that it has led to improved health outcomes and health indicators due to strengthened system of healthcare delivery. "National Health Mission continues to play an important role in strengthening public health systems at the state and sub district levels, Shri Choubey stated. He was also of the view that state Health Ministers should also be adequately informed about NHM activities as this shall enhance their involvement in the programme.

SmtPreeti Sudan, Secretary (Health & Family Welfare) stated that NHM is a great institutional framework as it helps to assimilate government structures, diverse working conditions and priorities existing in the states. She further added that NHM provides multi-sectoral flexibility and convergence to the States to implement shared health goals.

Smt Preeti Sudan further said that the Ministry has undertaken to strengthen Sub Health Centres as Health and Wellness Centres (HWC-SHC) in a phased manner so as to meet the commitment of operationalizing 1,50,000 HWC by 2022. "One of the key elements is the midlevel provider in HWCs. We must focus on training them and enhancing their capacities," she added. She further stated that the NMC Bill will enable flexibility in hiring manpower in the States. She suggested that NHM needs to look at Anti-microbial Resistance (AMR) especially in SNCUs and should ensure that they are infection free. She also emphasized on the need for developing specific time bound strategy for leprosy and kala-azar districts.
