So lets start first then with redirection.
If you use the directive Redirect, RedirectTemp or RedirectPermanent the
problem is that the URL path is used as a prefix when matching, so if you use:
RedirectTemp / http://www.healthcare.in/index.py
then it will redirect every URL of the site and when it comes back to the site
on the redirected request, it hits the redirect again and causes a loop. This
therefore cannot be used.
A way around the redirect loop is to apply the directive to just the specific
path of '/'. This can be done using:
<LocationMatch '^/$'>
RedirectTemp / http://www.healthcare.in/index.py
</LocationMatch>
You could also have used mod_rewrite, but this is probably simpler.
Next we need to have files with a .py extension handled as WSGI application
script files. This is done using Options ExecCGI and AddHandler as you were
doing. Thus something like:
<Directory /home/nitin/wsgi-scripts>
Options ExecCGI
AddHandler wsgi-script .py
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
That should be enough. Get rid of the WSGIScriptAlias directive you had.
BTW, do note that because you are using AddHandler, each of the WSGI script
files will run in its own separate sub interpreter. If you don't want that and
they can and should run in the same Python sub interpreter context, you should
also be setting:
WSGIApplicationGroup %{GLOBAL}
