THE detection of the first cluster of sex workers with HIV in India was in 1986 and Phase I of the National AIDS Control Programme of India was launched in 1992. Although the estimated number of those infected is second only to South Africa the adult HIV prevalence in India is still low (0.9%). Indias success in prevention and control of HIV infection can best be attributed to coverage by comprehensive targeted interventions among all at risk sub-populations such as sex workers injecting drug users and to some extent men who have sex with men and migrant workers; strengthening sexually transmitted infection (STI) clinics; and implementation of strategies to enhance blood safety and community involvement.
