However, in recent years, while declining HIV trends are evident at the national level as well as in most of the States, some low prevalence and vulnerable States have shown rising trends, warranting focused prevention efforts in specific areas. The National AIDS Control Programme (NACP) is strongly evidence-based and evidence-driven. Based on evidence from ‘Triangulation of Data’ from multiple sources and giving due weightage to vulnerability, the organizational structure of NACP has been decentralized to identified districts for priority attention. The programme has been successful in creating a robust database on HIV/AIDS through the HIV Sentinel Surveillance system, monthly programme reporting data and various research studies.

Thakare (Kawathekar)2, 1Director, Online computer academy, Nagpur, M.S., India, 2Research Scholarand Associate Prof., Dept. of Architecture, K.I.T.S., Ramtek, Dist. Nagpur, M.S.,India. Abstract: Agriculture is a largest economic sector and plays a very significant role in the socio economic development of our country, which is now in crises. The farmers of various states particularly in Maharashtra are in distress due to multiple factors ending in suicide in large scale. Farmer’s suicides in growing numbers throughout the states of Maharashtra, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, and Punjab is the most crucial problem and calls for the topmost priority in the agenda of rulers & policy makers. The suicidal trend set in 1991 by the farmers of Andhra Pradesh has spread to Maharashtra in 2000-01 and has been continued even today. Vidarbha is observed as the suicide prone/ danger zone of the state. In Vidarbha region more numbers of farmers have committed suicide to overcome the miseries due to various reasons viz. nonproduction of crops, bad debts, drought, lack of markets, marketing and irrigation facilities exploitation by private money lenders and other social and family causes arising out of the combination of various factors, but no one particular reason could be attributed to this saddest event of the mankind in the Indian history. The Rural Development agencies are coming in picture for the post suicidal help within their limits.
