  • Maternal Health
    CHAPTER TEN MATERNAL HEALTH Maternal health, meaning the “health of women during pregnancy, childbirth and the postpartum period,”1 has been recognized by Indian courts as being protected by the right to health, which is a facet of right to life under Article 21 of the Indian Constitution.2 The Constitution also mandates the State to provide maternity relief to women under Article 42, which has been interpreted to include providing adequate maternal health services.3 Indian courts have also relied upon international human rights instruments to understand the scope of this right, and the corresponding obligations upon the State. In keeping with these obligations, the State has put in place various schemes and structures for providing maternal health services, especially to impoverished women. Despite these, women face routine denials or lack of access to effective maternal health care services. In this chapter we analyze courts’ responses to such denial of access. We note here that High Courts across the country are engaged in adjudicating cases relating to denial of access to maternal healthcare services. However, many such cases are ongoing and as yet contain no substantive orders laying down any jurisprudence or provide any substantive remedy beyond seeking a reply or a compliance report from the State.4 Such cases have not been included in the Compendium. A case that highlights both the articulation of the right to maternal health, as well as the Court’s response to the violation of this right, is Laxmi Mandal v. Deen Dayal Harinagar Hospital & Ors.5 This case involved two petitions before the Delhi High Court challenging the government’s failure to ensure that pregnant women are able to access essential services and entitlements guaranteed under various government benefit schemes.6 The two petitions also sought accountability for the denial of access to minimum health care to two women during the critical weeks preceding their delivery at home and in public health institutions, causing the maternal death of one of them.

WNTA emerged from the consensus among human rights activists and social action groups who were part of the World Social Forum 2004 (Mumbai). The purpose was to create an environment through focused and concerted effort and try to make a difference in India where one-fourth of the world’s poor live and experience intense deprivation from opportunities to learn, live and work with dignity. In this regard, WNTA highlights the aspirations and concerns of the most marginalized sections of the society – Dalits, Adivasis, Nomadic Tribes, Minorities, Women, Sexual Mi- norities, Children, Youth and the Person with disability to the government through People’s Manifestoes before elections. Further, WNTA reviews and monitors the performance of the government on its promises and plans towards the marginalized sections on the framework of Constitutional mandates, National development goals and International commitments set in the UN Millennium Declaration (2000) / The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development Goals. We work to ensure that the concerns and aspirations of the marginalized sections are main- streamed across programs, policies and development
