Malaria is transmitted by the dusk-dawn biting female Anopheles mosquito. The transmission of malaria is highly concentrated in places where the mosquito lifespan is longer and that depends on climatic conditions which may affect the survival of mosquitoes. Poor access to the public health system is one of the reasons for malaria. As per the report of the Directorate of National Vector Borne Disease Control Programme (NVBDCP), Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India, 577 malaria cases were reported as of December 2017.
