Solution

The correct option is D increased maternal mortality rate (MMR) and infant mortality rate (IMR)
Currently various action plans and programmes are in operation to attain total reproductive health as a social goal.

These programmes cover wider reproduction related areas and create awareness among people about various aspects of reproduction for building up a reproductively healthy society.

A reproductively healthy society has better awareness about sex related matters, increased number of medically assisted deliveries, better post-natal care leading to decreased maternal mortality rate (MMR) and infant mortality rate(IMR), increased number of couples with small families and better detection and cure of STDs.

Hence, increased maternal mortality rate (MMR) and infant mortality rate (IMR) does not indicate improved reproductive health of the society.
