With over a million ASHAs, these frontline women workers are the backbone of India’s public healthcare system. Each ASHA serves around 1,000 people in rural areas and up to 2,000 in urban settings, often working tirelessly around the clock to deliver essential services.
Despite their vital role, ASHA workers are considered volunteers and receive a fixed monthly allowance along with task-based incentives. This compensation varies by state and is usually below the minimum wage for unskilled labour. ASHA unions have been at the forefront of advocating for fair pay and better labour conditions, underscoring their impact on public health and India’s Sustainable Development Goals.
In 2018, the government introduced the ASHA Benefit Package to recognize their contributions, offering limited support through schemes like the Pradhan Mantri Jeevan Jyoti Bima Yojana, Pradhan Mantri Suraksha Bima Yojana, and Pradhan Mantri Shram Yogi Maan Dhan. ASHAs with over ten years of service are to receive a one-time award of Rs. 20,000 at retirement. However, greater recognition and sustained investment in their well-being and security are still needed.
This film honours ASHAs, India’s women-led healthcare workforce, and their indispensable contributions to the public healthcare system’s resilience and reach.
