📄 Abstract

In the present study an attempt has been made to examine the growth trends in birth, death and infant mortality in Himachal Pradesh with the help of secondary data (2010-2020) by using the exponential growth function and the ’t’ test to determine the statistical significance of trends in birth, death, and infant mortality over the study period. The results shows that the birth rate in Himachal Pradesh has been decreasing during the years 2010 to 2020 with a CGR of -0.83 percent, per annum, while the death rate has increased with a CGR of 0.11 percent, per annum. Further, infant mortality rates in Himachal Pradesh during the study period have shown a steady decrease with a CGR -8.81 per cent, per annum, possibly due to improvements in healthcare facilities and awareness programs. This indicates progress in public health outcomes in Himachal Pradesh. The findings suggest that continued efforts are needed to sustain and improve these positive trends. The state's efforts in enhancing healthcare services and promoting health awareness among residents are crucial for the betterment of public health in Himachal Pradesh.
