Abstract	The state of a nation's health policy and health infrastructure is considered as a crucial factor in its economic development. Good governance is essential for the enactment of robust health policies, establishing health infrastructure and achieving improved health outcomes. While the Indian National Health Policy (NHP), 2017 mandates universal access to healthcare, the effective implementation of the policy is largely determined by the intricate web of governing bodies at the national, state, and local levels. This research paper focuses on how governance structures impact the implementation of the NHP in Tamil Nadu, which is perceived as one of the best public health systems in India. The study examines the various government mechanisms and institutions in Tamil Nadu that influence the adoption and implementation of the NHP and further highlights the patterns of reflection of good governance principles in the implementation process. Furthermore, the present research will contribute to understanding how the principles of governance impact the implementation of health policy and will help develop strategies to achieve better health outcomes in Tamil Nadu.
Keywords	National Health Policy, Health Governance, Healthcare, Health Infrastructure.
