The Indian government has taken several measures to improve healthcare facilities in rural areas. Some of the initiatives taken by the government are as follows:

• The National Rural Health Mission (NRHM) was launched in 2005 to provide accessible, affordable, and quality healthcare to the rural population.
• The government has introduced various health insurance schemes like Rashtriya Swasthya Bima Yojana (RSBY) and Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (PM-JAY) to provide financial protection to the poor for availing healthcare services.
• The government has set up primary health centers (PHCs) and community health centers (CHCs) in rural areas to provide healthcare services at the grassroots level.
• The government has also introduced various mobile health clinics and telemedicine facilities to connect people in remote areas with doctors and specialists.
• The government has launched the National Health Stack which aims to provide a digital infrastructure for healthcare in rural areas.

These initiatives have helped in improving the healthcare facilities in rural areas and ensuring better health infrastructure and care for the rural population. However, more efforts are needed to bridge the urban-rural healthcare divide and to provide quality healthcare to all.
