The incident of an eight-year-old rape survivor being shuffled from one clinical centre to another on Thursday has dropped at mild the sorry state of the Community health centres (CHCs) of Gautam Budh Nagar and negligence on the part of the medical doctors.
Out of the six neighborhood health centres of the district, only the CHCs in Bhangel, Dadri and Badalpur have a facility for accomplishing the exam through the DNA package which is helping hit upon the perpetrator through ascertaining the presence of his DNA within the pattern.
However, kin of the rape survivor from Jarcha who was once refused clinical exam at two clinical centres on Thursday ahead of in spite of everything reaching the Bhangel CHC to seek out its door locked have alleged that the medical doctors shuffled them announcing that there were no DNA kits to be had or team of workers which is able to habits the test. TOI had reported the case that a juvenile was once held for the alleged rape.
However, Thursday's incident isn't a one-off incident, law enforcement officials say. Earlier, on February 24 this year, a 13-year previous rape survivor who was once referred to the district medical institution from the Bhangel CHC apparently because of loss of DNA kits, was once returned from the medical institution announcing that for the reason that incident took place in in Jewar, the exam will have to be carried in the market.
Since there are no feminine medical doctors on the Jewar and Dankaur CHCs and the unavailability of the process on the Dadha CHC where only one feminine physician is posted who is unavailable within the night time, the survivors from police stations like Jewar, Kasna, Jarcha, Surajpur, etc should be dropped at either the Dadri CHC or the district medical institution.
However, law enforcement officials say that many instances are referred to the district medical institution in case the survivor is brought late within the evening or DNA kits are finished.
After the February incident, the CMO had directed that none of those centres will refuse the clinical exam of a victim but the same isn't being followed.
Aditya Saini, clinical superintendent, Dadri CHC stated that the power has run out of the kits for the past four-five days and therefore, the lady was once referred to the district medical institution.
At the district hospital- the one executive multi-speciality medical institution within the city, the physician on duty stated that the kin have been requested to take the lady to the Bhangel CHC because the case belonged to a "peripheral area".
"It was decided by the CMO long back that examination in the rape cases from peripheral areas will happen in Bhangel or Dadri CHCs. I was only following directions," Dr Vandana Sharma, who was once on night time duty told TOI.
Sharma carried out the clinical late Thursday night time only when the topic was once reported to higher authorities.
According to 164 A of the CrPC, the registered clinical practitioner to whom the sort of survivor is distributed shall without delay, examine her and get ready a file of the exam but the same is clearly no longer being followed because of jurisdiction issues and the loss of kits.
Chief clinical officer (CM) Anurag Bhargava told TOI that the CMO workplace has enough DNA kits but the officers of the Dadri CHC did not seek the same on time.
"We will send the kits to these centres. Explanation is being sought from the doctors who refused the examination," he stated.
