Tuberculosis (TB) remains a significant public health challenge in India and Kyrgyzstan, despite their differing epidemiological and socio-economic contexts. This article provides a comparative analysis of the TB burden, healthcare infrastructure, and control measures in both countries. It highlights the drawbacks in current strategies and provides recommendations for improvement. Data from the World Health Organization (WHO), national health ministries, and peer-reviewed journals are used to provide the latest insights. The analysis underscores the need for strengthened healthcare systems, increased funding, and international collaboration to achieve the global goal of TB elimination.
