Abstract

Introduction: More than fifty years ago, the United Nations adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (United Nations 1948). The Declaration embraces human rights concerns, which are presented in 30 articles.

Methodology: The research is done scientifically to solve the research problem. The methodology adopted for the present study is descriptive and analytical which is based upon scientific tools such as quantitative and qualitative. The purpose of the present study is to explore and evaluate the status of health governance provided by the public health system and the pattern of utilisation of those services by the community of study areas.

Discussion and Analysis: PRIs or local governance are the constitutional setup in India for grassroots development of the rural areas. Health is one of the subjects assigned to the PRIs in our country. In 1993 the government brought a new PRI Act with more powers and decentralisation to the local bodies.

Conclusion and recommendation: There are enough reasons to suggest that the PRIs engagement in improving the key health indicators will become a reality in India. Decentralisation is a prerequisite for the success of any health-related programme.
