Malaria is a life-threatening disease caused by the Plasmodium genus, primarily transmitted by Anopheles mosquitoes, with high prevalence in tropical regions, particularly India. The disease can be prevented and treated, with specific species like P. Falciparum and P. Vivax being the most common in India, leading to around one million cases annually. Key challenges in malaria elimination include drug resistance, urban transmission, and the need for effective surveillance strategies.
