Pulse-Polio programme is organised in our country

The correct option is B To eradicate polio
The government of India with a vision of eradicating poliomyelitis or polio from the country had initiated an immunization campaign during the period 1995-96. By this, it was intended to vaccinate all children under the age of 5yrs. This program has been receiving support of various international institutions, state governments and NGOs. It is evident that the World Health Organization (WHO) had removed India from the list of polio-endemic countries. No fresh case is reported till 2014, the country is now declared polio free, officially. So far, for last four years not even a single case of polio has been reported in India, thereby virtually making India polio free. So, Pulse-Polio programme is organised in our country to eradicate polio.
