Rural Women and Health Care Access: A case Study of Karveer Tahsil

The present paper examines the health care facilities available to rural women who are working in the agricultural sector as a labourer. Women’s health is a critical component of rural development in India, as women play a central role in sustaining households, agricultural activities, and community life. Despite their vital role, rural women face multiple health disadvantages due to poverty, limited education, nutritional deprivation, frequent pregnancies and inadequate access to health care services. The present study examines the availability, accessibility and utilization of health care services among rural women in Karveer Tahasil. The present study is based on primary data collected through structured interview schedule. The finding reveal that although public health facilities such as Primary health centres and ASHA services are available, rural women face multiple barriers in accessing timely and adequate health care.
