The Union Ministry of Women and Child Development has dismissed the index, which ranks India 107 out of 121 countries, as ‘erroneous’. Factchecker examines the Ministry’s arguments.
Ayush doctors were included to inflate the number. Further, the country does not have accurate data on the number of practicing healthcare professionals. A 2021 study found that the density of active health workforce in India is just a little over one-fourth of the WHO’s recommended threshold of 44.5 skilled health workers per 10,000 population.
Janata Weekly is India’s oldest independent socialist weekly.
Ever since its founding in 1946, Janata has voiced its principled dissent against all conduct and practice that is detrimental to the cherished values of nationalism, democracy, secularism and socialism, while upholding the integrity and the ethical norms of healthy journalism. For more than seventy years now, week after week, it has continued to analyse the changes taking place in the country and the world from a socialist standpoint, and thus promote the spread of socialist ideology in the country.
Address: D-15, Ganesh Prasad, Naushir Bharucha Marg, Mumbai- 400007.
