Only a few States, Kerala, Madhya Pradesh, Delhi, Andhra Pradesh, Gujarat, Sikkim and Punjab, developed formal State Action Plans, and even fewer advanced towards full implementation.<\/li>\n<li>Most States continued to rely on fragmented, sector-specific actions.<\/li>\n<li>The <strong>limited progress<\/strong> stemmed from the fact that health services, pharmacy regulation, veterinary oversight, agricultural practices, food-chain safety and waste governance fall largely under State jurisdiction.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>NAP-AMR 2.0: Advances and Strengthened Vision<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>NAP-AMR 2.0 provides a more <strong>implementation-oriented <\/strong>and operationally specific framework. It outlines clearer timelines, resource planning and responsibilities.<\/li>\n<li>A critical improvement is the explicit recognition that the private sector delivers a major share of human and veterinary health services, and its involvement is essential for national AMR control.<\/li>\n<li>The plan deepens its One Health approach by strengthening attention to <strong>food systems, environmental contamination and waste management<\/strong>, which are major pathways for resistant organisms.<\/li>\n<li>It proposes <strong>integrated surveillance systems across human, animal, agricultural and environmental sectors<\/strong>, promoting more harmonised monitoring.<\/li>\n<li>In governance, NAP-AMR 2.0 elevates national oversight by placing intersectoral coordination under NITI Aayog through a dedicated Coordination and Monitoring Committee.<\/li>\n<li>It emphasises that every State and Union Territory should establish <strong>State AMR Cells<\/strong> and prepare State Action Plans aligned with the national framework, supported by a national dashboard for tracking progress.<\/li>\n<li>These shifts indicate a growing understanding of AMR as a <strong>multi-departmental development challenge<\/strong>, not just a technical health issue.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>Persistent Gaps: The Missing Centre\u2013State Mechanism<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Despite major improvements, a core structural limitation remains.<\/li>\n<li>The plan urges States to create AMR Cells and Action Plans but <strong>does not establish a mechanism to ensure compliance. <\/strong><\/li>\n<li>There is no formal Centre\u2013State review platform, no statutory requirement for States to notify plans, <strong>no joint monitoring process<\/strong>, and no financial incentives linked to implementation, such as under the National Health Mission.<\/li>\n<li>Because <strong>most AMR determinants lie under State authority<\/strong>, this absence of accountability structures is a critical weakness.<\/li>\n<li>Without mechanisms for political engagement and administrative follow-through, even a well-designed plan risks achieving limited impact.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>The Path Forward: The Need for a Unified and Accountable Structure<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Effective implementation requires a <strong>clear Centre\u2013State architecture<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li>A national\u2013State AMR council, chaired by the union Health minister and guided by NITI Aayog, could serve as the apex decision-making and review body connecting human health, veterinary systems, agriculture, aquaculture, food safety and environmental governance.<\/li>\n<li>State participation would strengthen if the Union Government formally requested all States to prepare and notify State AMR Action Plans with<strong> defined timelines and annual reviews<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li>High-level communication through Chief Secretaries can elevate AMR on administrative agendas.<\/li>\n<li>Additionally, <strong>conditional financial support under the NHM<\/strong>, even modest, can enhance surveillance, stewardship, infection control and laboratory strengthening.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>AMR spreads through hospitals, farms, markets, food systems and waste streams; therefore, national plans cannot succeed without<strong> strong State participation<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li>India now has an opportunity to build a <strong>coordinated, accountable model for AMR<\/strong> <strong>control<\/strong> that could serve as an international example.<\/li>\n<li>With political commitment, integrated governance and sustained support, NAP-AMR 2.0 can become a <strong>transformative milestone<\/strong> rather than a statement of intent.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>The New Action Plan on AMR Needs a Shot in the Arm FAQs<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Q1. <\/strong>Why is AMR considered a One Health challenge in India?<br \/>\n<strong>Ans. <\/strong>AMR is a One Health challenge because resistant organisms and antibiotic residues spread through humans, animals, food systems and the environment.<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Q2.<\/strong> What was a key limitation of the first National Action Plan on AMR?<br \/>\n<strong>Ans. <\/strong>A key limitation was that most States did not develop or implement comprehensive State Action Plans.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q3. <\/strong>How does NAP-AMR 2.0 improve on the earlier plan?<br \/>\n<strong>Ans. <\/strong>NAP-AMR 2.0 improves on the earlier plan by providing clearer timelines, integrated surveillance and stronger multisectoral coordination.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q4. <\/strong>What major governance gap remains in NAP-AMR 2.0?<br \/>\n<strong>Ans. <\/strong>The major governance gap is the absence of a formal Centre\u2013State accountability mechanism to ensure State-level implementation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q5. <\/strong>What step could strengthen State participation in AMR control?<br \/>\n<strong>Ans. <\/strong>State participation could strengthen if the Union Government mandates State Action Plans and links progress to financial incentives.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><strong>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thehindu.com\/opinion\/lead\/the-new-action-plan-on-amr-needs-a-shot-in-the-arm\/article70346165.ece\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">The Hindu<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><strong>The Need for \u2018Heart-Resilient\u2019 Urban Planning<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h3><strong>Context<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>On October 8, 2025, India\u2019s Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA) observed <strong>World Habitat Day <\/strong>under the theme Urban Solutions to Crisis.<\/li>\n<li>Even as national missions such as the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana-Urban (PMAY-U) and the Smart Cities Mission advance, a quieter emergency is unfolding: a <strong>surge in cardiovascular disease and diabetes across urban India. <\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Cardiovascular ailments now account for <strong>major urban deaths,<\/strong> with prevalence nearly twice that of rural regions and increasing cases among individuals under 50.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>The Urban Living Paradox: Opportunity and Ill-Health<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Urban life promises mobility and opportunity, yet long commutes, polluted air, shrinking green cover and rising stress shape unhealthy routines.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Access to care<\/strong> remains uneven because hospital distribution follows profit rather than need, with high-income neighbourhoods attracting most facilities while vast areas remain underserved.<\/li>\n<li>This creates an urban paradox, prosperity for some, heightened <strong>lifestyle disease<\/strong> risks for many.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>Fragmented Urban Planning and Its Health Consequences<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>India\u2019s rapid urbanisation has been accompanied by fragmented planning.

How did the 14th Finance Commission impact the fiscal space of states?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ans<\/strong>. It significantly expanded states\u2019 fiscal space by raising their share in the divisible pool from 32% to 42%.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q2<\/strong>. What explains the slight decline in states\u2019 fiscal space during the 15th FC period?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ans<\/strong>. The decline was due to reduced tax devolution, increased non-sharable cesses and surcharges, and a drop in states\u2019 own revenue receipts.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q3<\/strong>. Why do high-income states claim their fiscal space has shrunk in recent years?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ans<\/strong>. High-income states experienced reduced transfers and declining own revenues, partly due to an unfavourable devolution formula.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q4<\/strong>. How have GST-related developments affected state finances post-GST 2.0 reforms?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ans<\/strong>. Post-GST 2.0 rate reductions and the discontinuation of the GST compensation cess have reduced GST revenue buoyancy for states.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q5<\/strong>. What measures can strengthen fiscal federalism in India in light of recent trends?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ans<\/strong>.
