  • Abstract:
  • From social point of view, good health is a pre-requisite for human productivity and development process. It is essential for economic and technological development. At individual level, health is man’s greatest possession, it lays a solid foundation for his happiness. There can be no contradict opinion on the fact that health is a basic input in national progress and in terms of resources for economic development; nothing could be of greater significance than the health of the people. So, for building up a healthier nation, the availability of healthcare infrastructures like availability of medical beds, hospital availability and access to sanitation facility are of highly importance. Improvement in health status would make a positive impact on economic development. Better health can increase the number of potential man hours for production by reducing disability as well as by reducing mortality. Better health status may result in more productivity per man as well as more men available for work. Therefore, the promotion of good health must be a prime objective of every country’s development programme. It is a precursor to improve the quality of life for major portion of mankind. The preamble to the World Health Organization states that the enjoyment of highest attainable standard of health is a fundamental right of every human being and the government of every state is responsible for the health of their people and that they can fulfill that responsibility of taking appropriate and social welfare measure.
