Swasth Aspataal is an initiative by Video Volunteers to report on and fix the healthcare system of our country. Most of the primary health centres and other healthcare facilities in rural India are in urgent need of funding. The infrastructure for healthcare is crumbling and the nearest healthcare for every rural Indian lies several kilometres away - at the district hospital.
