Summary:

The Health Secretary to the Government of India called a meeting to address the slow progress of India's march towards achieving the MDG 4 target. He was glancing over the report presented to him by the UNICEF director (India) on the poor performance by India compared to its neighbouring countries. Bangladesh, Nepal, Bhutan, China and Sri Lanka had either achieved the MDG 4 target already by 2012 or were on their way to achieve the MDG 4 target by 2015. India had the highest number of U5 deaths globally and about 4000 U5 children died every day in the year 2012. India was likely to miss the MDG 4 target. The Health Secretary asked his Director (Child Health) to examine India's child health policy. This case study discusses this topic.
