  • Abstract:
  • Purpose: For the rural health care system to expand and flourish, road connectivity is one of the most crucial elements. There exists a correlation between the appropriate road connectivity and regional health metrics. Many rural residents find it easier to obtain health, education, and other economic and social services when there is sufficient road connectivity in the countryside. To create jobs, generate money, and boost productivity in the agricultural and industrial sectors, improved road connectivity is essential in rural areas. Let's sum up by saying that improved health care and access to all economic sectors are made possible by rural communities having better road connectivity. Primary data, which were gathered using the random purposive sampling technique, served as the basis for all of the research. There were 150 households in all that were surveyed for the study. The study concluded that PMGSY significantly affects the sample district's health indices and health care services; delivery woman when they got labor pain and faced so many other factors. In rural areas, better health care systems are positively correlated with increased road connection and vice versa. Conclusion: Improved connectedness has been shown to have positive effects on health-related factors in earlier research as well. Since the availability of healthcare facilities and other socioeconomic factors influence a society's health indices, the advantages could not be dispersed fairly. As previously mentioned, the study's sample of habitations has a homogeneous population, making it possible to compare them and evaluate the benefits and changes that the rural roads have brought about. These roads can be safely blamed for any appreciable alteration in the accessibility or usage patterns of these facilities. Variations from control habitations also demonstrated how easier it is to access these facilities on a better-maintained route.
