Abstract
It is evident that, LMICs are suffering from double-edged sword burden. At one hand, non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such as cancer, diabetes, hypertension, heart and renal disease are increasing, causing high morbidity, disability and mortality rates, at the same time they have little control on communicable diseases (CDs). In addition to existing CDs, new infections such as dengue, bird flu, chikungunya and so on, the nutritional, maternal and child health care problems are augmenting the burden on health care systems.
