This chapter presents data on child mortality from the earliest time available. It begins with an overview of India’s performance vis-à-vis the top five contributors to under-five deaths in the world and then looks at both inter-state, intra-group, intra-state, and inter-group inequalities among social groups by gender, tribe, caste, and religion. It also analyses intra-group differentials at the inter-state level, looking at how a particular group is doing or has done in different states. This not only shows their relative standing at the state level, but also their given maximal (if not the optimal) achievement in the country, and the shortfall in other states from their respective maximal. One important lesson from this chapter is that child survival in India is, first and foremost, a manifestation of systemic injustice, reflected in the country’s poor aggregate performance over the decades. A narrow focus on inter-group inequalities is, therefore, not enough.
