The Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 3.1 target for Maternal Mortality Ratio (MMR) by 2030 is less than:
- A 50 per 100,000 live births
- B 100 per 100,000 live births
- C 70 per 100,000 live births ✓
- D 140 per 100,000 live births
Explanation
SDG Target 3.1 specifies reducing the global Maternal Mortality Ratio to less than 70 per 100,000 live births by 2030. India's MMR per SRS 2018-20 is 97 per 100,000 live births (an improvement from 254 in 2004-06), approaching but not yet meeting the SDG target. SDG 3.2 targets neonatal mortality rate <12 per 1,000 live births and under-5 mortality rate <25 per 1,000 live births by 2030.
