Rural areas have less facilities as compared to urban areas and the facilities are are established in rural areas are least availed by people of rural areas either due to distance, poverty or reasons otherwise. Cases of infants death soon after birth and mother dying after giving birth are higher in number as compared to urban areas. People in rural areas insist on giving childbirth at home and without presence of any medical expert, complication occur which lead to death of mother and child. On the contrary with the ease availability of medical facilities mother and child are taken care of in healthy environment and less casualties occur.
