According to a new UNICEF report, birth registration in India has increased from 41% in 2005-2006 to 80% in 2015-2016. The report also says that one in four of the world’s children remains invisible despite significant global progress driven by India, Bangladesh and Nepal. In India, birth registration levels have risen for both the richest and poorest segments of the population, and the gap has narrowed,” said the report.
