D Correct answer
Explanation

Heart attack is a cardiovascular condition, not an infectious disease. Malaria, Dengue, and Chikungunya are vector-borne diseases covered under the National Vector Borne Disease Control Programme (NVBDCP). The government runs special disease control programmes only for infectious and communicable diseases, not for lifestyle or chronic conditions like heart attacks.
