Covid-19 signified the inevitability of the right to health of the people. Right to health is not a recent phenomenon in the legal system. Right to health is recognized as a fundamental human right by the World Health Organization. The right to health for all people means that everyone should have access to the health services they need, when and where they need them, without suffering financial hardship. The simple reason behind emphasizing the significance of right to health is no one should get sick as well as die due to poverty or because non availability of access to public health care system. The right to health is wider concept which includes several aspects such as right to good health, right to control their own health and body, right to privacy, right to live with dignity and medical experimentation, right to access to health system etc. Overall approach of the WHO in this context is people centric health care system. In this context, it is expected that states will formulate their health policies in tune with WHO and accordingly, India has introduced several public laws and different policies to provide access to people to health care system.
