Methods: Raisen district was selected for study out of 50 districts of Madhya Pradesh. 3 years retrospective online data about cov- erage of immunization & ANC services was collected from 8 blocks of Raisen district and was analysed.
Results: Total number of ANC registration has been increased from 54.11% (2009) to 59.28% (2012). Also TT1 received by 68.02% in 2012 in comparison to 65.79% (2009). But rest of the ANC ser- vices has declined by 3-6% approx. Immunization coverage of district has also been declined in the range of 0.2-17.2% in the span of 3 years.
