Abstract
Abstract :. Life expectancy is the key metric to assess population health .It tells us the average age of death in a population. People undeniably live longer today than they did in the past. But for behavioural, biological, and other reasons, not everyone benefits equally from the gains in life expectancy. Women outlive men in almost every society. In more developed countries, the average life expectancy at birth is 79 years for women, 72 years for men. In less developed countries, where high maternal mortality reduces the difference in longevity, women can expect to live an average of 66 years, compared with 63 years for men (PRB) India’s life expectancy may have more than doubled since independence. Indeed, the globalization of modern medicine and medical practices has globalized high life expectancy too (TOI) According to the latest WHO data published in 2020 life expectancy in India is : male 69.5 female 72.2 and total life expectancy is 70.8 which gives India a world life expectancy ranking of 117. The present paper aims to examine the causes for gender disparity in life expectancy. The infant and child mortality rates in India have decreased. These two factors both played a role in the rise in life expectancy.
