Abstract
Sandhya Ahuja
Vector-borne diseases, particularly dengue and chikungunya, continue to pose significant public health challenges in urban India. This study investigates the epidemiological patterns of these diseases from 2019 to 2024, presents a statewise and yearwise analysis, and explores their socioeconomic impact, particularly on urban populations. Based on secondary data from the National Centre for Vector Borne Disease Control (NCVBDC) and media reports, we analyze trends and propose practical, innovative interventions for sustainable vector control and disease prevention.
