Global Health Governance and International Law in India: A Socio-Legal Study

Abstract

India is a culturally and historically rich nation. India has hosted several ancient civilizations that differed greatly from one another in many aspects of life due to its large geographic expanse, varied climate, and unique environmental conditions. India boasts a vast diversity and cultural ethos that is unmatched in comparison to other regions of the world, encompassing a wide range of faiths, dialects, cuisines, climates, cultures, and social systems. It is a well-established truth that health problems existed wherever there were humans. Given that India is the starting point of early organised communities and historical civilizations, it is evident that healthcare and health were prevalent there long before. Since the beginning of time, historical texts have been filled with references to a wide range of health-related topics. An attempt will be made to conduct a study on court rulings and reports of the Government of India in the proper places in order to support the proposed study and determine how the law pertaining to the right to health is being implemented. Thus, the study's technique, which is an analytical doctrinal approach, has been used.
