Equal number of 5–year–age–group and gender matched non–diabetic individuals, were selected as controls from UHTC of GMC,Nagpur. Using predesigned preform, socio–demographic characteristics, and history about various risk factors were assesses. Anthropometric measurements and BP were recorded using standard protocol. After calculating Crude Odds Ratio(OR), Adjusted OR(AOR) was calculated by Binary Logistic Regression.

Results:Majority subjects were aged 45–60 years. Statistically significant association was established between T2DM and family history of diabetes AOR=4.15(2.26–7.61),p<0.001); spousal diabetes AOR=2.48(1.25–4.91),p=0.009; low physical activity AOR=3.38(1.34–4.25),p=0.003; pre–obese/obesity AOR=5.77(3.03–10.98),p<0.001 and central obesity AOR=4.48(2.40–8.36)p<0.001).
