Abstract:
Women have a key role in the socio-economic development of any nation. Women are essential contributors to our communities. Healthy women are crucial for maintaining the welfare of families, societies, and nations. Overall development of women, especially improved health status of women leads to social change and this change provides the base to achieve the targets of sustainable development. Despite the fact the health status in the states of Bihar and Jharkhand are still lagging behind the national average and other best performing states. The present paper attempts to analyze the comparative health status of women in India and in the selected states of Bihar & Jharkhand on the basis of selected indicators related to nutritional, maternal and reproductive health. Study reveals that among the most of the selected indictors the performance of Bihar is poor and in terms of national average both the states are lagging behind the national average. Jharkhand is the only state that has seen improvement among pregnant women aged 15-49, with a decrease of 9.26%.
