Political Commitment: The Government of India has always remained steadfastly devoted to the programme of eradication of Vaccine-Preventable-Polio, covering large segments of its population and prioritizing polio eradication as one of the national health objectives. This has also because, in the event of any such instance, a very strong surveillance system has been put in place to identify and effectively tackle any challenges within the region, very efficiently. Low dose polio vaccines were used in extensive house to house and outreach vaccination campaigns to immunize millions of children. Trust building and high immunization coverage are also possible through social mobilization and communication carried out by the community. Funding and specialized support was accessed from external health funding agencies like the World Health Organization and UNICEF.

The success story of polio eradication in India presents positive sides to interventions in global health projects. It is a case in point emphasizing that public health objectives are only attainable with the appropriate leadership, health system and community involvement. These lessons will be crucial when it comes to the message in regard to the increase of acceptable technologies towards the attempts of reducing diseases such as measles and rubella.

The current geopolitical climate has benevolently congratulated the modern vision of health: for its relevance to promote primary health care and develop disease prevention mechanisms to meet future health threats.
