India has got its first NEDL finalised by the Indian Council of
2/13
Medical Research (ICMR)
It aims to bridge the regulatory system’s gap that do not cover all
the medical devices and in-vitro diagnostic device (IVD) as the
current system is equipped to manage only few notified devices.
India has become the first country to compile such a list that
would provide guidance to the government for deciding the kind
of diagnostic tests that different healthcare facilities in villages
and remote areas require.
NEDL would enable improved health care services delivery
through evidence-based care, improved patient outcomes and
reduction in out-of-pocket expenditure
NEDL would also lead to effective utilisation of public health
facilities; effective assessment of disease burden, disease trends,
surveillance, and outbreak identification; and address
antimicrobial resistance crisis too.
NEDL builds upon the Free Diagnostics Service Initiative and
other diagnostics initiatives of the Health Ministry to provide an
expanded basket of tests at Public health system
Key challenges anticipated during implementation of the
National EDL include — Adoption by States and harmonisation
with local standard diagnostic protocols and treatment
guidelines, provision of requisite infrastructure, processes and
human resources.

While states like Sikkim and Gujarat have managed to achieve
high levels of HWS, a relatively low percentage of rural Indian
households have access to this service
The strategy so far to increase access to HWS faced obstacles,
including not paying enough attention to sustaining or recharging
groundwater, the primary source, and treating service delivery
primarily as an engineering solution, without adequate
involvement of the users.
At policy level:
The institutional landscape for water at both the Centre and state
government has been somewhat fragmented, with several
ministries in Delhi and departments in states dealing with
different aspects of water management, with overlapping roles
and responsibilities.

Conclusion:
Many parts of the country are facing severe water crisis and
drought conditions. There are many traditional water harvesting
and conservation practices in various parts of India which can be
employed locally to fight the ongoing crisis. Can you identify few
such practices? Also mention the states where they are more
prevalant.
