摘　　要：Despite a considerable global effort to eradicate malaria in the last few years,the disease burden in 2020 was 241 million,with 627000 deaths.India accounted for 83%of cases reported in the World Health Organization(WHO)South-East Asia Region(WHO malaria report 2021).Nevertheless,India has shown its commitment to eliminating malaria from the country by framing the National Strategic Plan(NSP),according to which the districts have been stratified into four categories based on the malaria transmission intensity and the indicator used for categorization of the districts was annual parasite incidence(API).In North-East India,many highly endemic districts(API>2)are in the“Intensified Control Phase”and fall under category栿[1].A few pockets in such districts have disproportionate(API>10)due to forest and tribal dominance in those regions.The previous reports demonstrated a high malaria burden(API>10)in the district East Garo Hills[2];however,a few pockets of the district Udalguri are malaria hotspots with the API>5[3].
