Abstract:
In the last 4 decades, a number of factors have affected the death rate across various states in India. Educational Factors like literacy rates have seemed to be the most significant factor impacting Death Rate with a positive outcome, i.e. a state with a higher level of literacy rate accounts for lowering number of death rates making impartment of education the primary goal of the government. Other infrastructural factors like building new hospitals, in both Urban and Rural Areas also seem to be of great importance in order to reduce death rates. Quality is as important as quantity. Even though, number of hospitals have been increasing, the expenditure involved in improving the services has remained low for most of the states degrading its significance in improving the number of death rates across various states. Population control should also become a major priority of states state governments through the implementation of family planning norms as this factors leads to unavailability/shortage of health facilities to every individual hence, increasing the death rate.
