Anemia in adolescent girls in future attributes to high maternal mortality rate, high incidence of low birth weight babies, high perinatal mortality and fetal wastage. Methods: This was cross-sectional study. All the adolescent girls studying in standards 9th - 12th class who were given consent to hemoglobin estimation were included in the study. The girls ≥20 years, and those suffering from any chronic disease were not included in the study. A total of 400 girls were interviewed and were investigated for their Hemoglobin concentration. A predesigned and pretested schedule was used to collect the information about the participants. Results: Most of the girls i.e.388 (97%) belonged to the socioeconomic class II, III, IV. The association between SES and anemia was found statistically significant.
