India, after failing to achieve most of the health-related targets of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) by 2015, has made a commitment to achieve another set of health-related targets (a total of nine targets under Goal 3) including ‘universal health coverage’ (UHC) laid down by the sustainable development goals (SDGs) to be achieved by 2030. The achievement of the UHC and other health-related SDG targets is contingent on the availability and quality of public health services at primary, secondary and tertiary care levels. However, all is not well with the public health sector in India, especially at the primary care level.
