In 2023, as per the World Health Organization (WHO), India emerged as the country with the highest number of tuberculosis (TB) cases, reporting 2.8 million cases and contributing to 27% of the global TB burden [1]. Worldwide, there were 7.5 million newly diagnosed TB cases in 2022, marking the highest figure since global monitoring began in 1995 [1].
