Abstract	Preeclampsia, a hypertensive disorder arising after 20 weeks of gestation, continues to pose a significant threat to maternal and perinatal health, particularly in India where prevalence ranges from 5% to 10%. This study synthesizes recent (2020 to 2025) evidence on the epidemiology, biological mechanisms, sociocultural determinants, and health system responses to preeclampsia in India, with global comparisons. A structured review of peer reviewed literature, national surveys, and policy documents reveals persistent gaps in antenatal care coverage, early detection, and facility level risk screening, particularly in rural and socioeconomically disadvantaged populations. While innovations such as first trimester risk assessment using PlGF and uterine Doppler, telemedicine, and community health worker training show promise, systemic improvements including adoption of standardized screening protocols and perinatal audit mechanisms are essential. Culturally tailored education, infrastructure investment, and conditional health financing are recommended to address disparities and improve outcomes.
