Detailed Solution

Government is expected to work for the public's welfare in a democracy. The government builds various healthcare centres and hospitals at the rural, district, and city levels, which are run by the funds and taxes collected from people. In rural areas, only 20% of the total rural population manages to afford the required medical care. More than 40% of the population has to borrow money from someone or sell their assets or houses for treatment of illness and buying medicines. Poor people are already malnourished because they do not eat healthy food and lack access to basic amenities such as safe drinking water, housing, and clean surroundings, which increase the risk of falling ill. The government should ensure that safe drinking water, housing, and electricity supply are available to everyone in both urban and rural areas. This will help reduce the risk of falling ill.
