“…Odisha and Chhattisgarh were observed to have covered a huge gap in increasing percent of mothers having at least four ANC from NFHS-3 to NFHS-4. This could be due to increase in literacy rates in these two states as disclosed by Negi et al (2010) and Prusty et al (2015). 5.…”

Motherhood is often claimed as the most positive and fulfilling experience. Nevertheless, there exist several women whose motherhood was associated with suffering, ill-health and even death. The condition is graver in few states of India which are socioeconomically backward (also called Empowered Action Group of states). The present study adopted a narrative description of various key indicators of maternal health as outlined in the NFHS-3 and NFHS-4 state reports. The prime focus was to examine whether the performance of those states has got better or worse in these two survey reports. The study has also discussed various factors related to the performance of each key indicator of maternal health. The overall limiting success of maternal health status in these states calls for improvement in execution of various maternal health related activities.

“…India has continuously improved RMNCH services through inclusive policies and schemes (Kumar et al, 2016). Despite the significant improvement of policy initiatives, the results are unsatisfactory for socioeconomically disadvantaged and geographically isolated communities (Negi et al, 2010). The mortality rates for tribal women continue to be high because of poor socio-economic and environmental conditions, malnutrition, poor intra-natal care, low birth weight, high prevalence of vaccine-preventable diseases, and poor hygiene (Gangadharan, 2015; Gangolli, 2005; Negi et al, 2010).…”

“…Generally, deliveries take place at their homes with the help of relatives, leading to a fatal event for mother and child. The low educational attainment, lack of knowledge, unfriendly behaviour of medical staff in the health facility, and lack of transport facility lead to lower utilization of RMNCH services (CNSM, 2013; Chandrasekhar et al, 1998; Maiti et al, 2005; Negi et al, 2010; Sarkar & Kar, 2016; Shrinivasan & Ilango, 2013). The underutilization of RMNCH services resulted in pregnancy complications, maternal mortality, infant mortality and unhealthy life for mother and child.…”

Maternal and Child Health (MCH) care services mainly focusing on the utilization among tribal women in Empowered Action Group (EAG) states in India. For this study, the (NFHS-4, 2015–2016) data were used. Analysis was performed with 54,448 women aged (15–49) who, have a current child below 5 years of age by using bivariate logistics regression, chi-squared test and the Moran-I (Univariate) statistical techniques. Results show that only 11% of tribal women accessed full Antenatal Care (ANC), and 54% of women received Postnatal Care (PNC) in EAG states. More than one-third (34%) of tribal women delivered in their homes compared to institutional delivery (66%). Women with higher education are significantly more likely to utilize ANC and have institutional delivery compared to the women with no-education. Also, mothers from the most abundant wealth status are significantly more likely to receive ANC and PNC and have institutional delivery compared to women with poorest wealth quintile. Considering the inter-EAG states comparison, state like Bihar, Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand are performing poorly. Hence, out of all EAG states districts almost 3–7 districts from (low–high) and 8–11 districts from (high–low) groups show negative autocorrelation or outliers to received MCH care services. Despite continuous and improving efforts of the government, the utilization of MCH services is very low among tribal women in the EAG states of India.
