In, 2016 Gujarat was rankedseventh among the Indian states and it even lagged far behind fromless developed states like Bihar, Jharkhand, Orissaetc.Therefore, the objective of the study is to gain better understanding about the perception, attitude, socio- demographicfactors and awareness of people towards tuberculosis in Ahmedabad and it also explores the research on multi-drugresistant tuberculosis, which has become necessary as it is increasing due to carelessness of patients as well as the healthcare professionals towards the disease.According to the convenience the study is conducted in Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation (AMC).
