Without a healthy nation, there can be neither development nor progress. Improved health contributes to greater productivity and reduces the healthcare burden on the economy. Our health system has failed to provide adequate heath care to the people. Despite increasing demand, public sector preventive and curative healthcare services are in tatters. Divisional Council will be responsible to maintain health policy in each division. The Islamic Democratic Party will progressively increase state spending on health. It will also be a duty of Divisional Council to obey National Insurance Policy. All private and government departments will have to insure their employees by the National Insurance Policy, so that they may get compensation in case of accidents or other disasters.
We intend to harness the energies and idealism of the youth to act as the locomotive of national change. The youth would be the focus our education, health care, and economic plans. Under a national youth policy, they would be actively involved in rural reconstruction, drainage and sanitation, social forestry, public health awareness campaigns, environment protection, and adult literacy.
