How can family welfare be linked with community health in the National Population Policy?

Correct answer: Healthy families together form a healthy community

Direct answer: A is correct because the health of a community is built from the health and wellbeing of its families. A family that has access to nutrition, immunisation, sanitation, health information, maternal care, and family-planning services is better able to protect its members. Step by step, healthier family members are less likely to spread preventable illness, children can attend school more regularly, parents can work more effectively, and families can use health services responsibly. When many families experience these benefits, the overall health of the community improves. B is wrong because family wellbeing affects neighbours, schools, workplaces, and public health, so it is not isolated. C is wrong because family welfare generally strengthens appropriate use of health services rather than reducing them. D is unrelated; map-making is not the meaning of family welfare. Memory cue: healthy families are the building blocks of a healthy community.
