    The country of India is burdened by a huge population pressure. This population pressure has made it tough to develop the educational and the health sectors of the country.India got its independence some 63 years ago and It is a shame that still; children and women die in India due to malnutrition.India is notorious for its abysmal health services leading to very high infant and maternal mortality rates.The Right to Health Care is a Basic Human Right but a major section of the children population do not get the necessary vaccines.

    This is a huge problem which needs to be solved as fast as possible to ensure the growth of the country in the correct direction. The government of India must realize that every single India has the right to remain healthy. It is right of every single child to get the necessary vaccinations. The government must take this issue extremely seriously. The government have taken certain steps to make the picture look better. Several free hospitals have been started in different parts of the country. However, the infrastructure of these hospitals is extremely under developed. It has been proved in several cases that the doctors of these free hospitals misbehave with the patients and dedicated the major section of their time for private practice. This cannot be allowed to happen. The government must take stern steps to stop this from happening. The government had been allocating huge funds to develop the hospitals.

    However, it is the role of the government as well, to ensure that the funds are properly used. There are proved cases of free medicines and vaccines being smuggled to the black market. This corrupt practice must be stopped at any cost. The government must come with suitable plans to ensure that every single Indian gets the proper facilities to remain healthy. If India has to become a super power in the future, the health sector of the society has to be improved.

    this is really a serious issue to look into as india is suffering from healthcare drawbacks in many places. since the population in the rurals are highly deprived of proper healthcare services, it is the matter of concern that government authorities do take up some initiatives to make proper health care available to each and everyone.
