during summer and rainy seasons due to poor quality of drinking water and
sanitation.

matter of major public health concern as it hugely affects social and economic
conditions of the people and leads to poverty. He said that prevention and
control of malaria would be successful only with close co-operation of
government and non-governmental organizations, health workers and through
community participation.
