Programmatic mapping and population size estimation of key population in India
India has the world’s second-largest HIV burden. Key populations of female sex workers (FSW), men who have sex with men (MSM), hijra/transgender (H/TG) people, and people who inject drugs (PWID), are disproportionately affected by the HIV epidemic. A community-led programmatic mapping and population size estimation (PMPSE) was carried out in 651 districts of 32 States and Union Territories of India. The goal was to identify the hotspots, network …
Assessment of targeted intervention programs on STI symptoms among Hijra and transgender in India
We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a Targeted Intervention (TI) program on Sexually Transmitted Infection (STI) symptoms among Hijra and Transgender (H/TG) persons in India. We analyzed the H/TG data from the national Integrated Biological and Behavioral Surveillance (IBBS) Survey for the years 2014-2015. The IBBS was a cross-sectional survey of 4,966 H/TG. Descriptive analysis was employed to delineate the socio-demographic profile of H/T…
Projected impact of fast-tracking of anti-retroviral treatment coverage on vertical transmission of HIV in India
One of the five high-level goals under Phase V of the National AIDS and STD Control Programme (NACP) of the Government of India is the elimination of vertical transmission of HIV. In this paper, we estimate the potential impact of maintaining and enhancing the anti-retroviral treatment under the NACP in terms of averting new infections and vertical transmission rates vis-à-vis no intervention scenario. We used India’s HIV Estimates 2022 models to…
Augmenting progress on the elimination of vertical transmissions of HIV in India
The government of India has adopted the elimination of vertical transmission of HIV as one of the five high-level goals under phase V of the National AIDS and STD Control Programme (NACP). In this paper, we present the data from HIV estimations 2021 for India and select States detailing the progress as well as the attributable causes for vertical transmissions. The NACP spearheads work on mathematical modelling to estimate HIV burden based on the…
Impact of Covid-19 Pandemic on HIV Testing Uptake Among Key Populations Enrolled in Targeted Intervention Program in Maharashtra, India
Determinants of Turn-Around-Time for Early Infant Diagnosis of HIV Testing
India has been implementing one of the biggest Early Infant Diagnosis (EID) of HIV intervention globally. The turn-around-time (TAT) for EID test is one of the major factors for success of the program. This study was to assess the turnaround time and its determinants. It is a mixed methods study with quantitative analysis of retrospective data (2013-2016) collected from all the 7 Early Infant Diagnosis testing laboratories (called as regional ref…
India’s Maritime Diplomacy in South West Indian Ocean
Being a maritime nation with considerable economic and military power, India has shown keen interest in demonstrating its role as a major security provider in the IOR. In the Southwest Indian Ocean too, India has sought to develop a security presence and strengthen its position by capitalising on its historic ties with the littoral nations of the region through provision of military training, defence equipment and security advisors. India’s effor…
