Various women lost their life even before or shortly after birth of child [4] so another look out of health for any economy is maternal mortality. There is need to inquire responsible factors for MM & IM for Pakistan scenario The above problems such as IM and MM are caused by the health inequality, so this study attempts to measure health inequality with respect to IM and MM for the most affected country like Pakistan where health equality is only measured at the macro level [5]. This study uses CI that is more compatible to measure health inequality with respect to IM and MM on regional level [7]
