Institutional delivery
99% of deliveries in Kerala and Tamil Nadu are institutional; in Nagaland it's under 50%.
Policy implication
Institutional delivery is the single strongest predictor of neonatal survival, and distance to a facility is the bottleneck.

Data vintage. This map uses NFHS-5 (2019-21). NFHS-6 (2023-24) state fact sheets were released in May 2026, but they are provisional and report fewer indicators, so the figures here have not been replaced. See the newer figures for this measure in the interactive atlas.
Source: NFHS-5 (2019-21). See the methodology for notes and limitations.
