WHO STEPS approach was used to collect data.
Blood pressure, body mass index, and blood sugar were measured.
Data analysis was done using SPSS version 16.
Odds of hypertension among subjects with risk factors were calculated.
p value less than 0.05 was considered significant.
Results.
The prevalence of hypertension was 14.1% among study subjects.
Hypertension was significantly higher in individuals more than 35 years than those less than 35 years.
Hypertension was significantly higher in those who take alcohol and in subjects with raised total cholesterol level but in multivariate analysis only age, education, and cholesterol levels were independently associated with hypertension.
