Letter

Letter Published in The National UAE on 8Feb 18  The recent budget announcement from the Indian finance minister on a very ambitious healthcare system was laudable. But at the same time, opposition parties and analysts are worrying whether this system is feasible and can be implemented. On the one hand, the Modi government's new health policy will cover people living below the poverty line. On the other, each individual state will be responsible for maintaining the system. So is it possible? It's certainly a mighty task which, with some vision, we can fulfil. In the end we will have to wait and see.
K Ragavan, India
