Detailed Solution

Health infrastructure has been the priority of India for five decades, leading to better infrastructure and manpower in all sectors for the development of the population. Therefore, (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
A healthy population can not only work more efficiently and productively but boost the growth and development of an economy. Lack of health infrastructure can reduce the treatment of the diseased and decrease their lifespan.
An unhealthy person cannot complete his education and cannot contribute to the nation’s economic growth. He cannot increase the national income.
