The correct answer is B
For India, the National Family Health Survey of 1992-93 was the first to provide a national-level estimate of 437 maternal deaths per 100,000 births for the two-year period preceding the survey (International Institute for Population Sciences, 1995).
To fill the data gap, in recent times, the potential of the Sample Registration System - a dual record system for collecting data on births and deaths - for estimating maternal mortality has also been explored. The source has recorded a maternal mortality rate of 408 and 407 for 1997 and 1998, respectively (India, Registrar General, 1999 and 2000).
