NIDDCP is :

  • A.National Iodine Deficiency Development Control Program
  • B.National Iodine Deficiency Disorders Control Program
  • C.National Iodine Deficiency Disease Control Program
  • D.National Iron Deficiency Disorders Control Program

Answer: B

NIDDCP is the National Iodine Deficiency Disorders Control Program.

India's National Goitre Control Programme of 1962 was renamed the National Iodine Deficiency Disorders Control Programme in 1992 to cover the whole range of disorders caused by iodine deficiency, from goitre to cretinism and mental impairment. Universal iodisation of salt is its main strategy.

The other expansions misread the letters: 'Development' and 'Disease' replace 'Disorders', and 'Iron' replaces 'Iodine'.
