The Man and His Vision
Bharat Ratna, the late Mr JRD Tata, was
among those handful of world citizens
whom destiny itself so shaped to become an
institution in a life-time. He had been regarded as
one of the stalwarts among Indians in the 20th
Century, who stamped his personality on the
country's affairs both before and after independence.
He was the crusader for the promotion of family
planning, both as a tool of curbing India's rapidly-
increasing population, and an entirely new way of life
in a developing society in which a family is not mere
numbers but valuable relationships of shared growth.
The late Mr Tata had promoted and fostered
several causes in the service of science and nation.
His holistic view of the population problem had
turned him into an equally strong humanist,
concerned no less with the problems of poverty and
environment, intertwined with population. Mr Tata
was the first to raise an alarm in
1951, in the course of a speech,
about the continuous and fast
growth of the India's population and its serious
potential consequences to the country's economy
and progress. Realising later the need for non-
governmental action, he founded the Family
Planning Foundation in 1970, of which he was the
founder Chairman. Family Planning Foundation
was re-christened as the Population Foundation of
India in 1993 to reflect the wider dimensions of the
population issue in a changing world. Mr Tata's
unique services in the cause of population had
been recognised by the United Nations who had
chosen him for their prestigious Population Award
for 1992. For his many splendour achievements,
India also conferred on him 'Bharat Ratna', the
highest civilian award of the Nation in 1992.

The Foundation
The Population Foundation of India (formerly
known as Family Planning Foundation) was
established in 1970 by a dedicated group of
industrialists and population activists led by
Bharat Ratna the late Mr JRD Tata who guided it as
the founder Chairman until his death in 1993.
After his demise, Dr Bharat Ram, noted industrial-
ist and a founding member of the Foundation, is
its Chairman.
The Foundation has been in the forefront of
non-governmental efforts at population
stabilisation and establishing a balance between
resource, environment and population.
Social development including population
stabilisation in India should not and cannot
remain the sole concern of the Government. It
ought to be supported and supplemented by private
voluntary enterprises. In this regard, the Founda-
tion has always worked in close
co-operation and co-ordination with official
agencies and programmes, both at the Centre and
in the States.
In its independent role, it has tried to guide and
influence the National Population Policy and to
serve as a catalytic agent to promote programmes
at different levels directed towards the ultimate
goal of population stabilisation.
The Foundation supports innovative research,
experimentation and social action to further the
cause of population stabilisation and provide a
forum for pooling of experiences and sharing of
professional expertise to strengthen and enlarge
the operational base of the Reproductive and Child
Health (RCH) programmes.

The Award
Wen the founder Chairman of the
Foundation Mr JRD Tata passed away in
1993. having laid a strong base for a
social movement to stabilise the growth of popula-
tion in India as an essential prerequisite to attain
higher qualities of life for the Indian people, the
Foundation felt that it would be a fitting tribute to
the great man if national awards were instituted in
his name to further the cause for which he was a
champion acknowledged all over the world.
In February 1996, the Governing Board formally
decided to institute national awards for the best
State and the best districts with outstanding
performance in population and reproductive health
and family planning programme.
Accordingly. the first JRD Tata Memorial Awards
were announced on July 29. 1997 and were given
to the winning State and districts by the then

Honourable Prime Minister of India, Shri I K
Gujral, in a function organised by the Foundation
on 13th November, 1997.
The first JRD Tata Memorial Award for the best
performing State was given to Kerala. Awards for
the best performing districts were given to three
districts, namely, Palakkad in Kerala (in the large
population size category), Toothukudi in Tamil
Nadu (in the medium population size category) and
Kurukshetra in Haryana (in the small population
size category).
The second jRD Tata Memorial Awards were due
in 1999, but due to non-availability of data at the
district level on Reproductive and Child Health
Programmes, it was postponed to the year 2000.
The second JRD Tata Memorial Awards were
announced on 28th July 2000 and were given to the
winning state and districts by the then Honourable
Minister of Health and Family Welfare,
Dr. C. P. Thakur in a function organised by the
Foundation on 3tt! January, 2001.
The second jRD Tata Memorial Award for the
best performing State was given to Tamil Nadu.
Awards for the best performing districts were given
to three districts, namely, Chennai in Tamil Nadu
(in the large population size category), Alappuzha
in Kerala (in the medium population size category)
and jorhat in Assam (in the small population size
category). Awards were also given to the best
performing district in the not so good performing
states. In this category, the districts of Dehradun in
Uttar Pradesh, Purbi Singhbhum in Bihar and
Cuttack in Orissa were adjudged the winners.

The Methodology
r·State
he selection of the State level Award 2002
has been done on the basis a set of 16
indicators for which data are compiled from
various published sources for the latest year for
which such data is available, which is for the year
1998-99 and six years earlier Le., 1992-93. These
indicators have a strong bearing on reproductive
health, gender equity, family planning and fertility
levels of the population.
The indicators were:
1. Median age at first union
2. Percentage of Births of the order 4 and above
3. Percentage of high risk births
4. Percentage of currently married women using
any method of family planning
5. Percentage of children who have been
vaccinated against measles
6. Percent of women receiving complete ante-natal
check-ups
7. Percentage of deliveries assisted by health
professionals
8. Difference in contraceptive use among couples
with 2 sons and no son
9. Percent of couples having 2 children not desiring
to have an additional child
10. Child Sex Ratio
11. Female Literacy Rate
12. Infant Mortality Rate
13. Percentage of the population below poverty line
14. Percent of plan expenditure on social sector
15. Girls Middle School Enrolment Rate
16. Girls Middle School Continuation Rate
As data are compiled from different sources, the
base year and final years are not the same for aU

the sixteen indicators. Efforts have been made to
compile data for the most recent year and making
the indicators comparable. Firstly, these indicators
were converted into index values ranging from a to
100. Secondly, a composite index is computed for
base year and final year on the basis of these
sixteen indicators. The composite index is the
simple average of sixteen indices. Thirdly, a score
is obtained for each state by combining the recent
levels and changes over the base and final years in
the composite index in the ratio 1:4.'
The sixteen indicators cover a wide range of
fertility, mortality, educational levels, maternal care
and government expenditure on the social sector. In
short, they capture the processes and achievements
in human development and population
stabilisation.
Districts
The district awards for the year 2002 have been
conferred in two categories.
(A) Best-performing districts on
Reproductive and Child Health
Programmes
Three districts were selected for the award from
different population size categories. First from
large category districts with population of more
than 3.0 million, second from medium category
with population of 1.8 million to 3.0 million and
third from small category districts with population of
less than 1.8 million.
The selection of the best performing districts in
the RCH programme has been done on the basis of
the indicators available from the Census 200 1 at
the district level as well as the changes over the
previous Census 1991. Since the data from RCH
Rapid Household Survey 1998-99 was used in the
previous award, the same data could not be used
for the selection of the present award. As the next
round of the RCH survey will be completed in the
next year only, we can not use it for the present
award of 2002. After an elaborate discussion in the
Technical Advisory Committee meeting, the best
available variables at this juncture considered for
the present award were:
1. Child Sex Ratio
2. Percent of children aged 0-6
3. Female Literacy Rate
4. Female Work Participation Rate
Each variable is fIrstly converted into an index,
which ranges from a to 100. Secondly, a composite
91 Population Foundation of India
|
|
1.9 Page 9 |
▲back to top |
index is computed for the base year and the final
year on the basis of these four indices. This
composite index is the simple il.verage of the four
indices. Thirdly, a score is obtained for each district
by combining the recent index and changes during
the past ten year period in the composite index in
the ratio 1:2.
(B) Best-performing districts on RCH
programmes in the three poor
performing states
It has been recognised that there are some
districts in every state, which perform extremely
well and these districts could serve as role model
for other districts. With a view to encouraging
better performance of the district among the poor
performing states, the concerned district has to be
recognised and awarded. In this context, one best-
performing district each from three poor perform-
ing states has been selected.
Presentation
The awards are given once in two years.
The best performing State is given a rolling
trophy in addition to cash award of Rs 10 lakhs.
The best performing districts on Reproductive
and Child Health programmes in the country are
given a rolling shield and cash award of Rs 2 lakhs.
In order to encourage the not so good perform-
ing States which are really posing the major
demographic problems to the country, the Founda-
tion wishes to recognise and award the best
performing districts from each of these States as a
pace setter or beacon light for these States. The
best performing districts on Reproductive and Child
Health Programmes in three not so good perform-
ing States are given a memento and cash award of
Rs 2 lakhs.
The Foundation felt that while the State was free
to utilise the cash award in a manner it deemed fit,
it might consider recognising the creditable perfor-
mance of institutions and individuals who had
contributed to the State's achievements. The State
award is to be presented either to the Chief Minister
or to the Health Minister of the State.
The awards for the districts are to be presented
to the Chairperson of the respective Zilla Parishad,
or to the administrative head of the district. The
Foundation felt that the districts might utilise the
cash award for furtherance of reproductive and
child health and family planning programmes in
their own areas.

The Significance of the Award
The process of integration of related
programmes of maternal and child health
initiated with the implementation of the
CSSM Programme was taken a step further in 1994
when the International Conference on Population
and Development in Cairo recommended that the
participant countries should implement unified
programmes for Reproductive Health. India took
the lead by introducing the target-free approach to
family welfare programmes from April 1996.
During the 9th Plan, the RCH Programme, accord-
ingly, integrates all the related programmes of the
8th Plan on maternal and child health, family
planning, adolescent sexual health, etc. The concept
of RCH is to provide to the beneficiaries need based,
client centred, demand driven, high quality and
integrated RCH services.
It is a legitimate right of the citizens to be able
to experience sound Reproductive and Child Health
and therefore the RCH Programme will seek to
provide relevant services for assuring Reproductive
and Child Health to all citizens. RCH is even more
relevant for obtaining the objective of stable
population in the country.
The selection of winners for the Awards is not
dependent just on the current levels of performance
in a number of crucial indicators. Emphasis has
been given on the change factor signif'ying the pace
of progress achieved over a period of time. It is
well known that despite the relatively slow perfor-
mance in the field of RCH for the country as a
whole, there are States within the country, which
have made significant strides in the field of
Reproductive and Child Health and their achieve-
ments are comparable to the best even in advanced
societies. Similarly, there are some

districts, which are doing very well in the not so

given the leadership, will and conditions, the
success can be repeated in other regions. The
awards are recognition of this sustained effort and
will hopefully generate the much needed impetus
131 Population Foundation of India
and confidence amongst the others that they could
also achieve the same standards.
The criteria adopted for the selection cover
various aspects of human development and
reproductive health.

Profile of the
Winners
The best performing State and the districts
have their distinct characteristics, which
have led to their success. These relate
varyingly to the historical past, the geographical
location, the ethnic composition, the social struc-
ture, political commitment to development such as
population policies, bureaucratic efficiency and
other determinants which contribute to the
achievement. A study of some of these factors
would be rewarding for other comparable areas.
The Winner State-Himachal Pradesh
The third ]RD Tata Memorial Award for excel-
lence in reproductive and population programmes
for the year 2002 is won by HIMACHAL PRADESH.

recipient Q/ the previous JRD Tata Award) followed
by Kerala and Delhi with scores of 87.7 and 82.5
respectively.
Himachal Pradesh is one of the smaller states
of India with a population of 6.1 million persons
according to the 2001 Census. The State has the
distinction of being the home of some great rivers,
especially the five rivers namely, Sutlej, Ravi,
Chenab, Jhelum and Bias. The white snowline,
the majestic peaks, forest, valleys and dales, the
Shivaliks and hill stations are the major land-
marks of the State. Food grain production,
animal husbandry, handicrafts, carpet making,
fruit cultivation and processing, fairs and festi-
vals, and tourism industry are the mainstay of the
State.
Following the statehood in 1971 as the 18th
state of the Union, Himachal Pradesh started
making concerted efforts to improve the economic
conditions of the state. The state has made
significant strides in developing an educational
and health infrastructure and transport and
communication networks. These advances have
had a significant impact on the socio-economic
and demographic status of the state. From the
very beginning the local leadership in the state
51J Population Foundation of India
recognised the importance of
family welfare programmes
and has implemented them
vigorously.
Himachal Pradesh ranks
favourably in many of the
indices used to determine the
performance of reproductive
and child health programmes
in the states. The state has
witnessed improvements in
almost all of these indicators.
The most significant improvements have been in
the area of girls' middle school enrolment rate,
proportion of deliveries attended to by skilled
personnel, immunisation and the use of family
planning methods. The girls' middle school enrol-
ment rate has shot up from 44.9 percent in 1993 to
78.7 in 1999-2000. The proportion of safe deliveries
and children vaccinated against measles has
increased from 25.6 and 71.5 percent in 1992-93
to 40.2 and 89.1 percent respectively in 1998-99.
These improvements have contributed to the state
getting the highest increase in the composite index
over the two time periods and the second highest
score in India.

West Godavari
West Godavari district of Andhra Pradesh
has been adjudged the best performing
district in the large population category
of districts (above 3 million). The district with a
score of 86 ranked first followed by Anantpur and
Krishna districts with a score of 84 and 83 respec-
tively, among the large population category of
districts. According to the 2001 Census, the total
population of the district was 3, 796, 144 with a
sex ratio of 992 females per 1000 males. The male
and female literacy of the district in 200 1 was 78.4
and 69.4 percent respectively compared with 70.8
and 51.2 percent respectively for the state as a
whole. The district recorded the highest literacy
rate in the state ranking next only to Hyderabad
district. West Godavari is one of the lesser-
urbanised districts of the state with 19.7 percent of
the population residing in urban areas compared

West Godavari is one of the coastal districts of
Andhra Pradesh and is bounded on the south by the
Bay of Bengal and Krishna districts, in the east by
East Godavari district and in the north by
Khammam district.
The district has one of the most favourable child
sex ratios among the large category of districts. It
also has witnessed remarkable improvements with
respect of fertility and female literacy rates. The
percent of children aged 0-6 to total population has
declined from 15.6 percent in 1991 to 11.1 percent
in 2001. The female literacy rate has increased
from 47.0 to 69.4 during the same period.

]hunjhunu districts of
Rajasthan and by Bhiwani
district of Haryana.
The district of Churu has
witnessed remarkable im-
provements in the area of
female literacy and work
participation rate. The female
literacy has increased from a
low level of 17.3 percent in
1991 to 53.9 percent in 2001.
The female work participation
rates have improved from
12.6 percent to 38.5 percent
during the corresponding period. Though the levels
of child sex ratio and percent of children 0-6 is
unfavourable in Churu, they have shown some
improvement during the same decade. However,
because of the remarkable strides made by Churu in
other areas, which are mentioned above (female
literacy rate and female work participation rate),
the district has recorded the 2nd highest increase in
the value of the composite index. This has cata-
pulted the district to the number one slot among
the medium category of districts.

Kinnaur district of
Himachal Pradesh.
The districts of
Chamba and
Kangra are situated
on the west of the
district and the
international
border with China
marks the eastern
limits of the
district.
The district of
Lahaul & Spiti has
seen improvements in all the four indicators used
in determining the best performing district. The
most impressive has been the increase in child sex
ratio from 951 females per 1000 males in 1991 to
986 in 2001. The female literacy rate has increased
from 38.0 percent to 60.9 percent and the female
work participation rate from 42.6 to 57.4 percent
during the period. The percentage of children aged
0-6 decreased from an already low level of 13.8
percent to 10.9 percent during the same period.
These significant improvements coupled with the
already good position among the small category of
districts have resulted in the district getting the
highest index value in this category.
