Abstract

Assam tea is a black tea named after the Indian state of Assam, where it is grown. It's made from Camellia sinensis var. assamica, a kind of tea plant. The Assam tea plant is native to Assam; attempts to establish Chinese cultivars in Assam soil were unsuccessful.  Assam tea is recognized for its robustness, endowed, malty flavor, and robust, vivid color, and is currently largely cultivated at or around sea level. In this research, we used  This same inquiry used a mixed methodology and an analytical descriptive strategy., which looked at how tea garden workers used healthcare services and what variables influenced their use in an Indian environment. In a northeastern Indian state, a survey was done first, followed by in-depth interviews (Assam). The variables impacting healthcare use were investigated using the health behavior model. The survey and in-depth interviews each had a sample size of 200 respectively and were conducted using multistage random and purposive sampling approaches.   The research provides data to support the Indian Plantation Labour Act of 1951, which protects tea garden workers' welfare and calls for a shift from colonial-era rules to modern-day industrial realities to enhance their living, employment, nutritional, and health situations.
