What is Kala Azar about?
Kala-azar, or visceral leishmaniasis, is a severe protozoal disease caused by Leishmania donovani, primarily transmitted through the bite of infected female sandflies. It is endemic in several Indian states, particularly Bihar and West Bengal, with a focus on early diagnosis, treatment, and vector control as part of the National Kala-azar Elimination Programme. The program aims to reduce the incidence to less than one case per 10,000 population at the sub-district level by 2023.
