Abstract

India carries the highest share of active and missing tuberculosis (TB) cases globally. The Government of India is prioritizing private sector engagement (PSE) in TB elimination activities, as most healthcare-seeking in the country happens in this sector. This study aimed to understand the knowledge and practices of private healthcare providers (PHP) on various aspects of TB case notification through the National TB Elimination Programme (NTEP). This cross-sectional study was carried out between Oct 2020 to April 2021 amongst PHPs in the Junnar Tuberculosis Unit (TU), Pune District, Maharashtra. Junnar Block has 299 PHPs who assess, diagnose, and/or treat TB cases. A total of 97 participants were enrolled in the study. About 89 (91.8%) PHPs are aware that TB case notifications are mandatory by law. However, 80.4% are unaware of the Ni-kshay portal (web-based case surveillance system) by NTEP. Similarly, 74 (76.3%) must be aware of incentives for PHPs to collaborate with the government healthcare delivery system. 82.8% of total Ayurveda, Unani, Naturopathy, Siddha, and Homeopathy (AYUSH) practitioners and 46.2% of Allopathic practitioners have poor knowledge about TB case notification, with a Chi-square value of 14.36 (p<0.01). Our study shows that the active engagement of private providers (PPs), especially AYUSH practitioners in rural areas, is a need of the hour in achieving TB elimination.

Abstract

Climate change poses a significant threat to agricultural productivity, particularly in developing nations where agriculture remains a primary livelihood source. This study presents a comprehensive modelling approach to assess the impact of climate variability on agricultural output, with a focus on case studies from India. Using a combination of climate projection data, crop simulation models, and econometric analyses, the research evaluates changes in temperature, precipitation patterns, and extreme weather events, and their implications for key staple crops such as rice and wheat. The study highlights regional disparities in vulnerability, adaptive capacity, and yield outcomes across different agro-climatic zones in India. Results indicate that without effective adaptation strategies, agricultural productivity could decline significantly in the coming decades, exacerbating food insecurity and rural poverty. The findings underscore the urgency of integrating climate resilience into national agricultural policies and promoting climate-smart agricultural practices. This research contributes to a broader understanding of how climate change affects agriculture in developing contexts and offers a methodological framework applicable to other regions facing similar challenges.
