Examining Role of the State in Health Care: A Study of Motikhavadi-Special Economic Zone (SEZ-Jamnagar)

This paper examines the health services provided by Reliance Industries in the village, Motikhavadi, which comes under the Special economic Zone- Jamnagar to scrutinise the role of the state, especially the monitoring mechanism. While analysing this (Community Health Centre, Reliance) unusual model of Public private partnership, the paper asks the critical question of conceptual transparency - whether the State looks at public health as a need based commodity or basic right of the individual, which has to be ensured.
