What is health?

In a democracy people expect the government to work their welfare. This could be through the provision of education, health, employment, housing or the development of roads, electricity etc.

What is health: Health means or ability to remain free of illness and injuries. But health isn’t only about disease. Apart from disease, we need to think of other factors that affect our health. For example, if people get clean drinking water or a pollution free environment they are likely to be healthy. On the other hand, if people do not get adequate food to eat or have to live in cramped conditions, they will be prone to illness.
