.OREWORD
¬˝SÃÊflŸÊ
The global AIDS epidemic poses an unprecedented threat to
society and India is no exception. In Delhi also, the growing
number of HIV/AIDS cases is a genuine cause for concern. This
chartbook is intended to illustrate the HIV/AIDS situation in Delhi
in a clear and concise format, bringing needed information on the
disease to a wide audience. It is intended to broaden public
understanding of the extent and nature of the threat, how the
disease spreads, and the steps that are being taken against it.

Delhi’s rapid population growth, nearly half of which is due to
migration, presents a unique challenge in the struggle against HIV
infection. Migrants often arrive in the city with little or no HIV
knowledge. The slum population, 40 percent of the total, poses a
special problem.
Sexual contact is the most common path by which HIV infection
spreads in Delhi. There are at least 35,000 sex workers, the large
majority of whom are not brothel-based and are thereby difficult to
contact. One of the tragedies of HIV is that clients of sex workers
may unknowingly infect their spouses who may then pass HIV to
their unborn children. Thus far, it appears that HIV has not spread
as widely into the general population of Delhi as has happened in
some other states. Only a sustained effort will prevent this from
taking place.
Information is a key component in the prevention of HIV and we
sincerely hope that this chartbook will prove to be a useful tool in
Delhi’s campaign against HIV/AIDS.

DELHIS RAPID POPULATION GROWTH
ÁŒÀ‹Ë ∑§Ë ¡Ÿ‚Å¢ ÿÊ ◊¥ á Ë ‚ flÁÎ h
Delhi has long been noted for its
very high rate of population growth.
Since the 1951 Census, when
Delhi’s population numbered
1.74 million, the total has grown at
more than twice the national rate.
Between the 1991 and 2001
Censuses, the population of the
National Capital Territory (NCT) of
Delhi grew from 9.42 to 13.85
million. That ten year gain of
4.43 million was its largest ever,
equivalent to adding the entire
population of Chennai Municipal
Corporation. In 2005, the
population is likely to be nearly
16 million.
Delhi is one of the fastest-growing
mega-cities in the world. It was
ranked as the world’s ninth largest
city in 2000 by the United Nations
and is projected to rise to the third
position by 2015, passing such
cities as New York and Mexico City.
.rom 1991 to 2001, migration
accounted for nearly half of Delhi’s
growth.

DELHI’S VULNERABLE POPULATIONS
ÁŒÀ‹Ë ∑§Ë •ÁÂfl¢ Œ Ÿ‡ÊË‹ ¡Ÿ‚Å¢ ÿÊ
In Delhi in 2004, it is estimated that
0.3 percent of adults were infected
with HIV. Since 1993, there were
945 reported cases of AIDS,
although the reporting of disease is
largely incomplete in India. Delhi is a
major crossroads in India and has
become an important hub for trucking
and transportation. The migratory
population, 900,000 and growing,
often arrives in the city with little or no
HIV knowledge. About 40 percent of
the city’s population lives in slums.
The slum population, characterized
by low levels of literacy, poor health
conditions, poverty, and the low
status of women, offers HIV many
opportunities to spread. Delhi must
also be concerned about its large
suburban population in Haryana and
Uttar Pradesh and the daily
movement of many into and out of
the city.
Other vulnerable groups:
• 35,000 female sex workers (.SW),
including 7,000 brothel-based
workers
• 35,500 street and working children
• .requent visitors for business as
well as Delhi residents who travel to
other cities and return
• An estimated 10,000 intravenous
drug users who often share needles

ESTIMATING THE EXTENT O. THE EPIDEMIC
◊„UÊ◊Ê⁄UË »§Ò ‹Êfl ∑§Ë ÁSÕÁà ∑§Ê •Ê∑¢ §‹Ÿ
The extent of HIV/AIDS is
estimated by testing at sentinel
sites located at government
hospitals. Both high and low-risk
groups are tested by the Delhi
State AIDS Control Society
(DSACS), the nodal agency.
DSACS was established as an
autonomous body on 1 November
1998 and currently operates 12
sites. High-risk behaviour groups
include intravenous drug users
(IVDUs) who share needles,
commercial sex workers (CSWs),
patients with sexually transmitted
diseases (STDs), and men having
sex with men (MSMs). The low-risk
behaviour group, pregnant women
at antenatal clinics (ANCs) who are
presumed not to engage in risky
sexual behaviour, are taken as
representative of the general
population.

States are classified as high,
medium, or low prevalence based
14.4
upon testing of high and low-risk
groups. With less than 1 percent
seropositivity in the low-risk group
(women in antenatal clinics), Delhi
7.2
would fall under the low prevalence
5.0
category. However with more than
5 percent seropositivity in high-risk
2.4
groups, Delhi would be a moderate
prevalence state and is therefore
categorized as a highly vulnerable
state.

KNOWLEDGE AND BEHAVIOUR
¡ÊŸ∑§Ê⁄UË fl √ÿfl„UÊ⁄U
In Delhi, as in all-India, sexual
contact is the most common way by
which HIV infection spreads,
beginning in high-risk behaviour
populations, then spreading to
low-risk behaviour populations.
Although awareness of HIV is
nearly universal in Delhi, only 29
percent of males and 19 percent of
females had fully correct HIV/AIDS
knowledge, according to the 2001
Behavioural Surveillance Survey
(BSS), conducted by National AIDS
Control Organisation (NACO).
Some reported that HIV can be
contracted by sharing a meal with
an infected person or did not know
that consistent condom use guards
against infection.
In Delhi, about 8 percent of males
reported that they had had sex with
a non-regular partner in the
previous year. The BSS also found
that only 33 percent of men and
25 percent of women reported
consistent condom use with non-
regular partners. Without full
understanding of HIV, the risk of
infection may be high.

As the disease becomes more
widespread, it can be transmitted
through other channels such as by
blood transfusion or from parent to
child. It then becomes a disease
that can affect anyone, not only
those with high-risk behaviour.
In Delhi, the proportion of HIV
transmitted through sexual contact,
64 percent, is lower than that of all-
India at 85 percent. Transmission
by blood transfusion and blood
products is about 5 percent
compared to 2.7 percent at the
national level. .or 26 percent,
transmission routes are not known.
About 35 percent of the reported
AIDS cases are in the age group
15-29 and 45 percent are in the
30-49 age group. Approximately
85 percent of the cases are among
males.

I left Agra and came to Delhi at the age of 18. At Agra, I worked in
a sweet shop. I fell in love with a girl and wanted to marry her. But
my family was against it. I got depressed and started taking drugs
to forget her. After I got addicted, I needed more money. So I
started thieving, gang robbery and other criminal activity. I
remained in prison for many short intervals and after getting bail, I
migrated to Delhi. Here I came to know about intravenous drugs. I
think from there, I picked up this infection.

Delhi’s commercial sex workers are
both brothel-based and non-
brothel-based and average over
four clients a day, the highest in
India. In 2004, 8 percent of the
brothel-based CSWs tested positive
for HIV, as did 1.2 percent of non-
brothel CSWs. Knowledge of the
condom is widespread among
CSWs; about 73 percent had used
a condom with a paying partner
during their last sexual encounter.
Only about 64 percent used a
condom consistently with paying
partners. The primary reason for
non-use of the condom is that
clients object. Often, the sex
workers, about two-thirds of whom
are illiterate, are likely to be
economically dependent upon their
dalal and fearful of insisting upon
condom use. As one measure of
condom promotion, DSACS now
distributes about 14 million
condoms per year and has set up
150 condom dispensing machines,
half on G.B. Road.

BRIDGE POPULATIONS
‚¢flÊ„U∑§ ¡Ÿ‚¢ÅÿÊ
HIV/AIDS is not simply a problem
for those engaging in high-risk
behaviour. Husbands who engage
in risky sexual behaviour may
unknowingly infect their wives
whose own behaviour is not risky.
HIV can also be transmitted by
blood transfusion. Migrants to the
city may bring HIV with them or
contract it after arrival, then spread
it to others in the community.
HIV infection often begins with
high-risk populations such as men
who visit sex workers and needle-
sharing drug users. These groups
act as a “bridge” to the general
population. Married women can, in
turn, contract the disease and pass
it to their unborn children. There are
indications that this is now taking
place in Delhi, threatening a
generalized epidemic.

My husband was a truck driver and used to earn well. He died of
AIDS in the hospital 5 years ago. After his death, I came to know
that I am also HIV positive. By that time, I already had two children,
one of 4 years and another of 2 years. After I came to know of my
positive status, I tested both of my child and the youngest one
found out to be positive. Since there is no blood transfusion as yet, I
feel I am the only source for my child getting HIV.

MAPPING THE CHALLENGE
øÈŸÊÒÁÃÿÊ¥ ∑§Ê ◊ÊŸÁøòÊáÊ
In order to devise a comprehensive
programme to address specific
groups at risk of HIV infection,
DSACS carried out a mapping
study to locate them. Such an
exercise provides a solid basis for
implementing targeted interventions
for groups whose needs vary
greatly. .or example, migrant
workers and truckers who spend
time away from home must be fully
educated to the dangers of HIV.
The table illustrates the variety of
patterns among high-risk groups
throughout the NCT of Delhi.

The presence of a sexually
transmitted disease (STD) or
reproductive tract infection makes
one more vulnerable to HIV
infection. The proportion of Delhi
adults interviewed in the BSS who
reported a possible STD symptom
was well above the national
average and was the highest of
any state along with Haryana.
Knowledge that the presence of a
STD increases the risk of
contracting HIV was somewhat
higher in Delhi than the all-India
average.

TESTING .OR HIV/AIDS
∞ø •Ê߸ flË/∞«˜U‚ ∑§ Á‹∞ ¡Ê¢ø
The fact that many people are
infected with HIV and do not realize
it is an ever-present danger in the
city. Voluntary, confidential testing
for HIV infection is a key element in
the struggle against the disease.
However, only about 18 percent of
the respondents in the BSS knew
where to go for a test. This is
despite the fact that about 80
percent of Delhiites in the survey
also said that they felt it was
possible to be tested for HIV.
The number of people tested for
HIV infection at Voluntary
Counseling and Confidential
Testing Centres (VCCTCs)* has
risen steadily, reaching 66,390
in 2004. Of these, 2,784 or 4.2
percent were found to be HIV-
positive. This proportion is not
necessarily representative of
Delhi’s general population as those
tested may have had some reason
to suspect that they were positive.
It is also important that patients be
counseled on the need for the test
and on the treatment available.
In 2004, 43,296 patients were so
counseled, 65 percent of the total.

Misconceptions about HIV/AIDS
only help to spread the disease.
People who feel they might be
infected hesitate to be tested lest
they be ostracized from their
village, job, and home. By 2001,
about 2 percent of Delhiites knew
someone who was infected with
HIV or who had died from AIDS.
Dispelling myths about HIV/AIDS is
an urgent concern. People must be
informed of the following:
HIV does not travel through the
air nor can it be contracted
through mosquito or insect bites.
Thus, merely having a
HIV-positive person in one’s
village or place of work carries
no risk of HIV transmission.
HIV cannot be contracted by
sharing a meal or shaking hands
with a HIV infected person, or by
a cough or sneeze.
HIV-positive people can live
normal and meaningful lives with
treatment and proper nutrition.

HIV can be passed to an infant
during pregnancy, labour, delivery,
and breastfeeding. Knowledge of
the risk in the antenatal period and
during delivery is high in Delhi, with
76 percent of women aware of the
possibility of passing HIV to their
children. A much smaller
proportion, only 39 percent, know
that the disease can also be
passed while breastfeeding.
The risk of parent to child
transmission can be greatly
reduced during pregnancy and
delivery through antiretroviral
treatment (ART). Three of the 25
ART centres* in India are in Delhi.
.or preventing transmission of HIV
through breast milk, various other
options are available. Lactating
mothers need to be counseled to
make a decision based on
acceptability, feasibility, affordability,
safety, and sustainability of the
chosen options such as
replacement feeding with formula.

A SA.E AND SECURE BLOOD SUPPLY
‚È⁄UÁˇÊà fl ÁŸ⁄UʬŒ ⁄UQ§ •Ê¬ÍÁø
Without a totally safe blood supply,
no one is free from the risk of HIV
infection. Securing an uninfected
blood supply is one of DSACS’
major challenges and one of its
major efforts. In the early 1990s, a
sharp, rising trend in HIV-positive
blood donations was observed.
More recently, the percentage of
HIV-positive blood donations has
stabilized and begun a slow
decline.
