While hearing a petition filed by Jai Prakash Tayal against
United India Insurance, the Delhi High Court ruled that the right to health
insurance is an integral part of the right to health and healthcare under
Article 21 of the Constitution, and held that discrimination in health
insurance against individuals based on their genetic heritage, in the absence
of appropriate genetic testing and laying down of intelligible differentia, is
unconstitutional.
