THE MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF HEALTH & FAMILY WELFARE ( SMT. PANABAKA LAKSHMI)
(a) Number of death cases due to Kala-azar, and Malaria during the last 3
years as reported by the State Health authorities are given at Annexure I.
Deaths are not reported under the National TB Control Programme. It is
estimated that about 4.17 lakhs patients die of TB every year in the country.
However, under Revised National TB Control Programme (RNTCP), the deaths due to
TB among patients registered for treatment are reported. State-wise details of
deaths reported during the last 3 years is given at Annexure-II.
(b) & (c) A National Vector Borne Disease Control Programme (NVBDCP) by
covering prevention and control programmes for Dengue and Japanese encephalitis
with 3 on-going centrally sponsored schemes namely National Anti Malaria
Programme, National Filaria Control Programme and Kala-azar Control Programme is
being implemented since October, 2003. Government of India provides assistance
in the form of insecticides, larvicides and drugs for treatment of Malaria, Kala-
azar and Filaria to all the states. In addition, North-Eastern States and UTs
are also provided cash assistance to meet the operational cost for
implementation of the programme. 100 Districts covering 1045 PHCs in 8 States
namely Andhra Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra,
Rajasthan, Orissa and Gujarat are also being provided 100% cash assistance to
meet the operational cost for implementation of the programme under World Bank
assisted Enhanced Malaria Control Project (EMCP). Under this project cash
assistance is also provided to other states for training and awareness
activities.
Funds in terms of insecticides and drugs for treatment of kala-azar are
made available to four kala-azar endemic states namely Bihar, Jharkhand, Uttar
Pradesh and West Bengal. Since December,2003, Govt.of India is providing 100%
cash assistance to meet operational cost for implementation of the programme
besides supply of DDT and drugs for kala-azar treatment.
Funds allocated and expenditure incurred during the last 3 years for
control of malaria, Kala-azar and TB and unspent balance are given at Annexures
-III & IV. Status of unspent balances under Malaria and Kala-azar Control
Programmes as on 30.11.2004 is at Annexure - V.
(d): The steps taken for effective control of Malaria include:-
ú Early Diagnosis and prompt treatment of malaria cases
ú Integrated Vector Control
ú Early detection and containment of malaria epidemic outbreaks.
ú Information Education and Communication (IEC) towards personal prevention and community participation.
ú Training and capacity building of Medical and Para-Medical workers.
ú Monitoring and Evaluation.
ú Effective Management Information System
For detection of Malaria cases in the community, Health workers and Health
institutions like Primary Health Centres (PHCs), Community Health Centres
(CHCs), Dispensaries and District hospitals are involved which carry out active
and passive surveillance. Drugs Distribution Centres (DDCs), and Fever
Treatment Depots (FTDs) have been established and most of the villages to make
available the anti-malaria drugs to fever cases and prepare blood slides.
Malaria positive cases confirmed on blood slides examination are given radical
treatment.
For elimination of Kala-azar steps being taken by the Govt.of India are:
ú Early diagnosis and complete treatment through Primacry Health Care System and periodic door-to-door case search.
ú Interruption of transmission through vector control by DDT indoor spraying in affected areas.
ú Health Education and Community participation.
For controlling Tuberculosis, National TB Control Programme is in operation
in the country since 1962. This could not achieve the desired results.
Therefore, Revised National TB Control Programme widely known as DOTS, which is
a WHO recommended strategy, was introduced in 1993 and scaled up from 1998 and
is being implemented in a phased manner, with the objective of achieving cure
rate of 85% of new sputum positive cases and to detect at least 70% of such
cases.
The project districts have reported a cure rate of more than 85% which
means more than 8 out of every 10 patients diagnosed and put on treatment under
revised strategy are successfully treated. This is more than double that of the
earlier programme. For quality diagnosis of TB, microscopy centers are
established for every 1 lakh population for normal areas and for every 50,000
population in hilly/tribal and difficult areas. More than 9000 microscopy
centres have already been established in the country.
To make the programme more accessible to larger segments of the population,
and to supplement the Government efforts in this direction, emphasis is being
given to involve medical colleges, all general hospitals, private practitioners
and NGOs in the programme.
DOTS coverage is being rapidly expanded in the country. From 20 million
coverage in 1998, more than 900 million population in 522 districts has been
covered. It is envisaged to cover the entire country by 2005 under the revised
strategy.
