Personal health seeking practices, socioeconomic and cultural factors also tend to play an important role in utilization of health care services, in addition to other factors like distance, cost, availability and quality of services. As per NFHS 4, 78.8% of pregnant women had four antenatal care visits during their pregnancy in rural areas of Jammu & Kashmir. In Jammu & Kashmir, 85.7% of births were institutional as per NFHS-4 reports. The objective of this study was to determine the factors affecting institutional delivery uptake among women in tribal areas of District Srinagar.
