What does a reduction in the infant mortality rate under the National Population Policy indicate?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Better health and care

Answer: A, better health and care. Infant mortality rate means the number of babies who die before completing one year of age, measured in relation to live births. When this rate falls, it generally suggests that mothers and babies are receiving better medical attention, nutrition, immunisation, sanitation and other care. It is therefore an important indicator of health development. B is wrong because poor medical care would usually increase the risk of infant deaths. C is wrong because increasing illiteracy is not an explanation for a falling infant mortality rate. D is wrong because increasing malnutrition generally harms infant survival. Memory cue: lower infant mortality usually means stronger health support.
