In May 2026, which Ministry released the National Family Health Survey-6 (NFHS-6), highlighting improvements in maternal and child health, nutrition, and financial protection?
Ministry of Health and Family Welfare
The National Family Health Survey (NFHS) is conducted by the International Institute for Population Sciences (IIPS), Mumbai, under the aegis of the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India. The findings of NFHS-6, highlighting improvements in maternal and child health, nutrition and financial protection indicators, were released in May 2026 by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare.
The Ministry of Education handles the education sector; the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation runs the NSSO/CSO surveys, not NFHS; the Ministry of Women and Child Development handles ICDS/POSHAN, not NFHS — none of these released NFHS-6.
Hence, the answer is Ministry of Health and Family Welfare.
