Answer A is correct - tetanus
Tetanus is not a most common cause of postnatal infent mortality in india. Without treatment of tetanus it can also lead to death but Vaccination is the best protection against this deadly disease and vaccination of tetanus may be given after birth and Neonatal tetanus is a generalized tetanus infection of the newborn so no worry about after vaccination.
