In this proximity of the research gap the present study aims to study the risk factors associated with preter delivery in rural population. A number of maternal sociodemographic characteristics were associated with an increased risk for preterm birth viz., Young maternal age (p<0.01), maternal age over 35(p<0.01), Being under weight(p<0.00) or overweight before pregnancy (p<0.01), Multiple miscarriages or abortions (p<0.01) and Physical injury or trauma (p<0.01) were found to be significantly associated with preterm delivery .
