The health ministry will soon revamp its flagship immunisation programme
`Mission Indradhanush' to include four new vaccines.
The mission, currently providing coverage against seven life-threatening diseases,
will soon also include vaccines for rotavirus, measles rubella, inactivated polio
vaccine biavalent and Japanese Encephalitis for adults, health minister Jagat
Prakash Nadda said.
Mission Indradhanush -depicting the seven colours of the rainbow -will also be
rechristened accordingly , an official said. It currently provides immunisation
coverage against diphtheria, whooping cough, tetanus, polio, tuberculosis, measles
and hepatitis B. “Mission Indradhanush has brought change in the lives of people.
We have to keep some other name in place of Indradhanush as the vaccinations
have gone up from seven to eleven,“ the Union minister said.
One of the major health initiatives, the immunisation programme and its coverage
was implemented and expanded in a major way under the present government.

Around 89 lakh children in India are estimated to be either unvaccinated or
partially vaccinated. Under Mission Indradhanush, the ministry identified 201 high-
focus districts which account for nearly 50% of all unvaccinated or partially
vaccinated children in the country . Of these, 82 districts are in just the four states
of Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan and account for nearly 25%
of all unvaccinated or partially vaccinated children of the country .
“In one year's time, 1.62 crore children have been additionally brought under the
ambit of immunisation,“ Nadda said.
The World Health Organizstion (WHO) pegs India's vaccine coverage at less than
80%.The government is targeting to immunise 90% of infants by 2020 under its
ambitious nationwide immunisation drive.
Though the government said that it is confident of meeting the target, health
experts say it would also require increased public spending on health. The health
ministry is also in talks with various international health agencies to attract funding
to ramp up the programme.
