Infectious diseases are still the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in India, and also Southeast Asia region. They are still a major contributor to the global burden of the disease. Acute diarrhoeal diseases have been recognised as the major cause of morbidity, under-nutrition and mortality. Nearly 0.7 million children die every year due to diarrhoea. To prevent
infectious diseases and increase awareness about nutrition, cleanliness, personal hygiene and sanitation, counselling is provided to the under-privileged, illiterate, rural dwellers and women through appropriate counselling programs.

The population of India has swelled to around 1 billion now. We have 2% of world area supporting around 17% of the world population. Also it is estimated that 2 – 3.1 million Indians have been infected with HIV/AIDS so far according to National AIDS Control Organization, India. Since there is no cure for AIDS, the emphasis continues to be on educating the masses, particularly the vulnerable groups about the causes of the disease.
