After more than two months of lockdown, when the union and various state governments have decided to initiate economic activities, albeit in a controlled manner, it is still not clear how well the health care system in India is prepared in dealing with the pandemic. A pandemic of this magnitude requires a robust health system with combined initiatives from the public and private sector involved in health care. However, rapid spread of infections and disease and socio-economic profile of large sections of the populace necessitates strengthening of the public health care system in India that can meet this health challenge and provide cheap and quality health care to substantial sections of the citizenry. In this scenario, it is essential that the union and state governments allocate more resources for the public health system in India. However, since Independence, except for one or two states, development of health care has been neglected primarily due to inadequate allocation of resources. While it is argued that the lockdown phase should be used to revamp the health system in India, yet, given past trends, there is little hope.

This article argues that lack of development of health care, largely due to inadequate allocation of resources, is inextricably related to the trajectory of development in India since Independence.
