Trends and predictors of severe and moderate anaemia among children aged 6–59 months in India: an analysis of three rounds of National Family Health Survey (NFHS) data

The findings highlight three key areas for programmatic focus to accelerate anaemia reduction in India: 1 targeting young children (aged 6-23 months); 2 ensuring the inclusion of SC and ST communities in all relevant interventions; and 3 promoting women's autonomy. These strategies are essential for reducing the burden of anaemia across the country.
