The declaration of National Health Policy is a step
in the right direction , but the policy’s
suggestion to increase the government ‘s
spending on health sector to 2.5 % is inadequate to rectify the existing gaps
in health sector are very correct . Converting the “dysfunctional heath care
system” of India is a mighty and highly challenging task .How
can the 2.5% allotment of fund will help in filling the gaps in the three “M”s viz., Man power, Material
and Money which have made the health care system a non performing one? India
needs higher percentage of fund allotment for health sector since health is an essential component of human
resource development . If we thinly distribute the allotted fund on various requirements, we will fail again
in achieving the goals of National Health Policy -1915 as we have miserably
failed in achieving the goal of Health
For All by 2000 AD.

Rajastan ordinance
The ordinance passed in Rajasthan prescribing minimum
educational qualification for those who want to contest local elections is very
illogical and unjustifiable. . Any social reform can be brought in only through
an evolutionary process and through an ordinance which is a tool of revolution.
A nation which could not eradicate illiteracy in the last six decades due it’s
failure to cater to the educational needs of village children particularly the
poor, has no right to punish the people
in this manner. If the village schools have the right number of teachers , proper
class rooms, benches, boards, drinking water and toilets with water we would
have reached 100 % literacy long back
