19-year-old Suresh is a waste picker and belongs to the Kalbelia tribe. A lack of healthcare, access to protective gear, and little knowledge about his rights have cost him his left eye. Suresh is not the sole victim of a lack of access to healthcare. Traditional and socio-cultural beliefs, along with a lack of understanding and trust in modern medicine make tribal communities reluctant to seek formal care. It is necessary to restructure and strengthen the public health care system keeping in mind the needs and aspirations of the tribal communities. It is only then we can ensure health for all.
