| 520 | _aInvestigating the regional prevalence of malnutrition in India, employing body mass index and tuberculosis prevalence as key indicators, we examine temporal shifts by incorporating both absolute and relative measures. The results highlight a persistent cycle of malnutrition, compounded by regional inequalities. However, nutritional deprivation shows a steady decline in upper-quartile outcomes at the district level from 2015 to 2019, across both rural and urban areas, where the rural areas show higher deprivation levels than urban areas. Spatial analysis techniques reveal significant geographical disparities in nutritional status improvements, underscoring the necessity for targeted policy interventions.
