Covid Pandemic & the rural healthcare in India: ‘A shabby & shameful saga of neglect & apathy’

It is not a hidden fact that poverty & impoverishment serve as the biggest fodder for the propagation of political agendas as a result even after more than 70 years of independence the social, economic & health standards of the rural poor still remains stagnant. Home to more than 64% of country’s 1.3 billion populations rural India doesn’t even have 30% of nation’s health infrastructure at its disposal. It’s abouttime that we realize that rural poor are citizens of this very own country & that they are entitled to every bit dignity of what a human being is entitled!
