AB  - India has the highest number of maternal (2010) and child (2009) deaths in the 
      world suggesting a poor coverage in Maternal, Newborn and Child Health (MNCH) 
      care services. This study assessed the coverage gap in MNCH care across districts 
      in India using a robust aggregate Coverage Gap Index (CGI) developed by the 
      'Countdown 2008 Equity Analysis Group'. The north-south divide in MNCH care 
      coverage gap is apparent. The results derived from this study emphasise the need 
      for focused intervention in 210 districts which have a coverage gap of >/=50%.
