In recent years, we have been pleading, unsuccessfully so far, for the development of sociological tools so that we can measure the extent of the disease both epidemiologically as well as sociologically. And, also for using the sociological parameters for assessing the impact of NTP. It stands to reason that long before the epidemiological parameters show an impact, a reduction in suffering as well as altered pattern of action-taking may show a change in the disease as it goes down and away in a country.

KEYWORDS: SOCIAL RESEARCH; SOCIAL BEHAVIOUR; SOCIAL PSYCHOLOGY; INDIA.
