Which of the following is not a target of National Health Mission?
Answer: D
The one that is not a target of the National Health Mission is eradication of Chikungunya.
The NHM's goals include reducing the infant mortality rate (IMR) and the maternal mortality ratio (MMR), and eliminating kala-azar to fewer than 1 case per 10,000 people at block level, along with lymphatic filariasis and leprosy targets.
Chikungunya is a mosquito-borne viral disease handled under the National Vector Borne Disease Control Programme by vector control and case management. No vaccine or specific cure is in routine use, and eradicating it has never been set as a goal, so it is the odd one out.
