Doctors say the Bill puts the onus of providing healthcare to the poor on them. Experts say the legislation will ensure health is seen as a right. And the govt says many of the protesters' demands have already been met.

life threatening situations, and in instances when despite best efforts lives are unfortunately lost, emotions and tempers are usually frayed, so it needs something more to allay apprehensions of the private sector.
