The numbers from the NFHS 6 factsheet, recently released by the Government of India, tell a compelling story of progress in Jammu & Kashmir. Child stunting has fallen from 26.9% to 21.4%, wasting from 19.0% to 10.6%, severe wasting from 9.7% to 4.1%, and underweight prevalence from 21.0% to 14.5%. These are not marginal improvements; they represent substantial gains in child survival and nutritional well-being.
