Great answers here and as usual Balaji Viswanathan (பாலாஜி விஸ்வநாதன்) has covered the answer in full length , few days back I attended a course on International Business and could draw a comparison between India and China which highlights mostly how China leads us in various domainsTwo of the most contrasting countries racing the to be the future superpowers .Its is pretty evident that China is ahead of India in several spheres and as the questions asks the strengths of China over India , I will be telling only one side of the story.1>The most recent thing I learned about China and India was the number of ports and their capacity.Out of the top 30 ports China have 12 ports with a combined capacity of 171.85 Million TEUsThe closest India come is Rank 33 with JNP (Page on jnport.com)with a capacity of 4.26 Million TEUs.You can understand how much this effects the business as well as tell about the infrastructure of the country.2> Companies :We all heard Alibaba's IPO here is an interesting fact:The market capitalization (m-cap) of the Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba Group Holding, which made its stock market debut in the US on Friday, stood at $ 231.44 billion. This is equal to the total m-cap of India's top four companies —TCS, ONGC, Reliance & ITC — by market value. These four make up for 15% of India's market capitalization.Here is some analysis of top 100 companies of the world by market capitalization:3> Natural MineralsChina leads us by at least 5 times4>Energy ReserveIndia5.7 billion barrels of proven oil reserves (#22)47 trillion cubic feet of proven natural gas reserves (#20)60,600 million tons of proven coal reserves (#5)$6.5 trillion value at current pricesChina17.3 billion barrels of proven oil reserves (#14)109.3 trillion cubic feet of proven natural gas reserves (#13)11,4500 million tons of proven coal reserves (#3)$13.2 trillion value at current prices5>Click Stores (Facebook,twitter, google and whatsapp)India has a large user base in all these but what we don't consider is none of these are Indian companies ,China on the other hand has alternative to all these which are doing really well and all have been developed within ChinaFacebook: India is 2nd largest base to facebook with 92 million userswhile the Chinese equivalent renren has twice the number of users , same with twitter -the micro blogging site, India ranks 6th wheras the Chinese alternative Sina Weibo has twice the number of usersWe use google and they use Baidu, in terms of moblie messaging they are have devloped Wechat and we are using whatsappIndia is more dependent on the social networking sites of the US unlike China (this may be due to the governmet policy)6>PopulationIts predicted that by 2028 India will suprass China when they both reach a population of 1.45 bnThe avearge household size inChina:3.1 India 5.37>Economy8> Millitary : Just comparing the weapons9>Infrastructure:When it comes to infrastructure development, India is way behind China, both in terms of quality and quantity. China spends about 11% of its GDP on infrastructure development, as compared to 6% of the GDP spent in India. China invested US$220.27 billion (1.346 trillion Yuan) in civil engineering and infrastructure projects in the first six months of 2013, with the National Bureau of Statistics of China claiming a year-on-year increase of more than 21%., whereas in India, The 12th Five Year Plan period of 2012-2017, targets $1.5 trillion investment, something that China will beat in just a couple of years. Better infrastructure is suited for foreign investments and economic growth.You can more here :http://www.fox.temple.edu/cms_blogs/gmbaindia2014/2014/01/22/infrastructure-thoughts-on-china-vs-india/10>Women empowerment:Recent studies have ranked China at No.61 in terms of gender equality as against India's 113 among 134 nations. In another attribute - economic empowerment of women - China is holds the No.50 spot, compared to India's 131 today. Labour force participation by women in China is 74 per cent, while it is just 34 per cent in India. In women's education, China is at No.85, against India's 121.11>Quality of Life:China has done far more than India to raise life expectancy, expand general education and secure health care for its people.Among all Indians, nearly one in every five males and one in every three females are illiterate.While China devotes 2.7 % of its gross domestic product to government spending on health care, India allots only 1.2 % of the GDP.India's HDI value for 2013 is 0.586 - which falls in the medium human development category - positioning the country at 135 out of 187 countries,China is at 91Source:http://www.targetgdpi.com/2014/01/india-vs-china.htmlhttp://www.worldshipping.org/about-the-industry/global-trade/top-50-world-container-portshttp://articles.economictimes.indiatimes.com/2014-09-22/news/54199285_1_india-s-market-capitalisation-market-valueCoal Facts | WCA | World Coal Associationhttp://www.indexmundi.com/factbook/compare/china.india/economyThe 17 Countries Sitting On The Most Valuable Energy Reserveshttp://www.dazeinfo.com/2014/01/07/facebook-inc-fb-india-demographic-users-2014/http://www.hindustantimes.com/india-news/india-far-behind-china-s-combat-power/article1-1161711.aspx

A2A.Please go through Babita Kataria's answer to The NMC Bill contains a provision which allows community health workers to practice modern medicine. Why is the medical fraternity opposing this? to know the reason, NMC isn't getting the support from the medical fraternity.And to rectify the fact stated in your question- As per National Health Profile, 2018: There is just one allopathic government doctor available for around 11,082 people across the country,if we include private sector doctors,it's 0.6/1000,which is only better than countries like Bangladesh (Even Pakistan has a ratio better than us at 0.8/1000 population) .This information was released by the Central Bureau of Health Intelligence — the health intelligence wing of the Directorate General of Health Services under the Health Ministry.In my opinion,there are few measures that can be taken to improve the situation-Population control policies - India has only 2.4% of world’s land area and has to bear 17% of world's population. Government needs to employ population control measures,else no amount of resources department will ever be sufficient and there will never be value of human life.Increased health budget allocation - WHO recommends minimum 5% of GDP allocation to healthcare,India spend only 1.3%. Countries like UK spend a minimum of 8% ,many African countries spend more than India. With such huge population and such small budget,how can government manage quality public healthcare?Infrastructure development - Doctors are often blamed for being reluctant to serve in rural areas.Truth is that making a doctor sit in a PHC/CHC is a waste of his/her education and clinical skills. Why? Coz there are no facilities available to manage any emergency,no essential medicines available,no necessary equipments available and the living conditions are inhumane, unhygienic and unsafe.Create a universal healthcare public-private partnership healthcare plan - Like income tax,it government makes it mandatory to have a healthcare insurance plan with nominal monthly deduction ( say 100 rupee/family person/month),with partial funding by government ,that will ensure that all salaried and tax paying people have a health insurance coverage covering care from private sector hospitals, thereby avoiding a sudden financial burden on family in case of a health emergency and decreasing financial burden on government and patients burden on government hospitals (because of non affording patients). Non salaried people should also be entitled to avail this at their will.Creating autonomous medical institutions of academic excellence - Like IITs and IIMs, AIIMS in India is an autonomous institute of medical excellence. There should be a multiple tier system like USA in such institutes, allowing a small percentage of capitalised seats and majority of merit based seats, thereby allowing cash inflow for such institutes.Moreover their autonomy must remain immune from any kind of political influence/infiltration,which often dilutes the quality of such institutes.Scrapping reservation based on caste - Instead, education till XII should be free and mandatory for each citizen and reservation,if at all should be given to financially weaker sections and only to one generation.There should be no reservation in post -graduate level or above.Preventing brain drain - Doctors belong to top 1% of population intellectually and our country should provide them incentives to stay in the country and serve people by creating better career and research opportunities with safe working environment.Incentives for private sector to open medical colleges providing subsidised and quality education /healthcare - decreasing land costs, low/no taxes , performance based allocation of government aid etc.Regulate working hours of doctors - Most resident Doctors in government hospitals have shifts extending beyond 36–40 hours continuously. In India on average a resident doctor works for 95–100 hrs/week with seven day work week. Such conditions deter many brilliant minds from taking the profession. More humane work hours will be a positive change that will attract the young and brilliant talent more.Digital health care records - I understand that given current scenario of healthcare in India,it's too far-fetched a thought,but a country wide, centralised digital platform for medical records will save a lot of man-hours of doctors. Imagine retrieving all past records of patients with his/her unique id by just a click,how much money (by avoiding repeated investigations) and Doctors' time (which they can utilise in seeing more number of patients) will be saved. This is a norm in many countries, already.P.S. This are my personal views.More inputs are welcome.
