MMR is defined as the number of maternal deaths per 100,000 live births. The indicator on maternal health status is disturbing. Based on data from the 1993 and 1998 National Demographic and Health Survey (NDHS), MMR went down to 172 deaths from a 1993 baseline figure of 209 deaths. In 2006, based on the FPS, it declined to only 162 deaths. Though the decline continued, it was at a sharply diminishing rate.

The overall probability of attaining the targets remains high, though dependent largely on the confluence of several factors, among them: scaling up of current efforts on all target areas; more efficient synchronization and allocation of available limited resources, including mobilization of additional resources; and stronger advocacy for and enhanced capability to implement the MDGs at the local level.
