Maternal mortality is the death of a woman due to pregnancy or childbirth. Both infant and maternal mortality are considered key health indicators because they reflect the overall health of a population.<\/p>\n<p>Meghalaya is a state in northeastern India with a population of over 3 million people. The state has a high rate of infant mortality, with 43 deaths per 1,000 live births. This is significantly higher than the national average of 30 deaths per 1,000 live births. The high rate of infant mortality in Meghalaya is due to a number of factors, including poverty, lack of access to healthcare, and poor nutrition.<\/p>\n<p>Maternal mortality is also a major problem in Meghalaya. The state has a maternal mortality rate of 200 deaths per 100,000 live births. This is more than three times the national average of 67 deaths per 100,000 live births. The high rate of maternal mortality in Meghalaya is due to a number of factors, including lack of access to healthcare, poor nutrition, and traditional practices that put women at risk during pregnancy and childbirth.<\/p>\n<p>The government of <div class=\"telegram-channel-container\">\r\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/pscnotes2025\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"telegram-channel-button\">\r\n            <span class=\"telegram-icon\">\r\n                <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 496 512\">\r\n                    <path fill=\"white\" d=\"M248,8C111,8,0,119,0,256s111,248,248,248s248-111,248-248S385,8,248,8z M362,177L320,367c-3,14-10,18-20,14l-56-41l-27,26 c-3,3-5,5-10,5l4-63L323,196c5-5-1-7-8-3l-98,62l-42-13c-9-3-10-9,2-14l162-63C351,160,365,164,362,177z\"\/>\r\n                <\/svg>\r\n            <\/span>\r\n            Join Our Telegram Channel\r\n        <\/a>\r\n    <\/div> Meghalaya is working to improve the health of its population.
