Pneumonia is the single largest infectious cause of death in children under five worldwide accounting for 16% of all deaths of children. It affects children and families everywhere but is most prevalent in poor and rural communities. Pneumonia not only contributes to the under- five mortality but also creates an economic burden on families as well as on the communities & the government in case of illness. In India (2014), pneumonia was responsible for 369,000 deaths (28% of all deaths), making it the single biggest killer for children under 5 yrs. Among children under-five years, pneumonia contributes to nearly a sixth (15%) of all deaths in India, with one child dying from pneumonia every four minutes.
