Data Mining is the process of finding pattern or useful information from large volume of data. The goal of this paper is to find the reason behind the unusual high birth rate by applying data mining techniques, e.g., decision tree, neural network, Bayes Classifier, Ripper and Support Vector Machine. The datasets were collected from the baseline survey conducted by the maternal neonatal and child health programme by ICDDR,B. If we could find the reason(s), high birth rate at home could be avoided in future. Giving birth at home is very dangerous as many complications may arise during pregnancy as well during birth. From the opinions of experts and professionals, it could be said that the risk of mortality of new born during home birth is quite alarming and birth at hospital/clinics seemed to be the safest place to protect the health and well-being of the woman and her baby.
