Women’s health and digital inclusion register gains in India: NFHS

National Family Health Survey (NFHS)‑6 results released by the Health Ministry in May showed significant gains in women’s maternal healthcare access, reproductive health and financial and digital inclusion, a report said on Wednesday.  The report from SBI Research noted material progress over a period of 3 years in terms of child stunting, vaccination, improved health delivery across women and fertility transition.
