Why are health services important for the urban poor in the National Population Policy?

Correct answer: So all groups get equal health opportunities

Direct answer: A, so all groups get equal health opportunities. Urban poor families may face difficulty obtaining affordable and timely medical care, so inclusive health services are important for reducing unfair differences in access. Population policy aims at the welfare and health of people, including disadvantaged groups. Services for the urban poor can support preventive care, treatment, maternal and child health and general well-being. Option A correctly states the principle of equal opportunity. Option B is wrong because health services are meant to improve life in the city, not empty it. Option C is wrong because health care does not require schools to close; education and health are both important. Option D is wrong because urban health services have no purpose of ending farming. Memory cue: public health should reach underserved groups, not exclude them.
