title: Susceptibility status of malaria vectors to insecticides in India.
abstract: The use of chemical insecticides for control of malaria vector populations continues to be the mainstay of malaria control strategy in India. Monitoring vector susceptibility to chemical insecticides is an important activity under the National Malaria Eradication Programme to ensure judicious and effective use of chemical Insecticides. 72 entomological zones were established under NMEP in 1977 for undertaking entomological studies in the malaria problematic areas. These zones have been generating insecticide susceptibility data in respect of the various malaria vectors. In this paper the insecticide susceptibility data, in respect of major vectors of malaria as on 1997, is presented.
