Shift health to concurrent list: Expert group to Finance Commission -Banjot Kaur

-Down to Earth

Activists voice concern about some recommendations by panel

The subject of ‘health’ must be transferred to the Concurrent List of the Indian Constitution from the State List, the high level group (HLG) formed for the health sector by the 15th Finance Commission has said.

“This is very strange,” T Sundararaman, former executive director of National Health Systems Resource Centre, said.

“Some of the states have been doing really well with or without the Centre’s support. Some have refused to accept central schemes in toto or otherwise according to their requirement. While we have been pitching for decentralisation of power and fund allocation, this is exactly a step in opposite direction,” he added.
