NOIDA: Nearly a week after TOI reported the dismal state-of-affairs at the autopsy area in Sector 94, the Noida Authority, which is answerable for its upkeep, has formally handed over fee of the power to the health division.
In most districts of Uttar Pradesh, the health division has fee of the autopsy properties. However, it was other in Gautam Budh Nagar, as the mortuary was constructed via Noida Authority in 2004 and persisted to remain underneath its fee as an alternative of the health division, which deputes medical doctors for accountability there.
This led to a large number of red tape for purchasing maintenance completed at the facility, as the executive scientific officer (CMO) required permission and price range from the Authority.
However, after taking cognisance of a TOI record dated October 16 which highlighted the dilapidated state of the mortuary, including non-functional equipment, broken doors and foul smell, the Authority issued formal orders for handing over the mortuary to the CMO workplace ultimate week.
The Authority has also started the method of restore of the generator, which had now not been functioning for the past 3 months.
"The Noida Authority CEO took cognisance of the TOI report and apprised us that the orders for handing over the mortuary to the CMO office have been issued. The process has been initiated by Noida Authority and we will get the letter by Monday. We will now seek funds from the state government for maintenance and repair work of the equipment," CMO Anurag Bhargava mentioned.
Authority CEO Alok Tandon confirmed the improvement. "We have issued the orders for handing over the mortuary to the CMO office last week. Directions have been issued to the project engineer concerned to this affect," Tandon mentioned.
Meanwhile, CMO Bhargava mentioned, "We will now seek funds sanctioned by the UP health department and get the repair work done." Sources in the CMO workplace mentioned that the department do not need no excuse for the pending restore paintings.
On October 16, TOI had reported that the mortuary body of workers are pressured to paintings with the foul smell emanating from the our bodies as 3 of the 4 deep freezers don't seem to be working.
Often, they have to chase dogs, which input the room the place our bodies are stored during the broken doors. Seven air-conditioners are also malfunctional.
Only two our bodies can be stored preserved at a time, while as many as seven our bodies are introduced via police to the mortuary every now and then.
