Foreword
Bihar had a very proportionate sex ratio at the beginning of 20th century but by the third quarter of that century, a gradual declining trend emerged. The overall sex ratio declined from 1061 in 1901 to 918 in 2011, while the child sex ratio also declined from 981 in 1981 to 935 in 2011. The child sex ratio is a crucial indicator of the status of women and girls in the society and a decline in this ratio is indeed a matter of great concern. The recent decline in child sex ratio, while attributable to factors like gender differential in mortality, and the misuse of modern diagnostic technology like ultrasonography which provides easy access to sex determination and sex selection in a socio-cultural milieu that prefers sons over daughters. In the given scenario, the state has been forced to implement the Pre-Conception & Pre-Natal Diagnostic Technique Act to regulate misuse of technology. However, the Census 2011 data on child sex ratio reveals that a lot more needs to be done in the state to strengthen the implementation of this much needed Act. The Government of Bihar is committed to improve this demographic phenomena with the regulatory measure. Apart from this restrictive enforcement, number of proactive measures have been undertaken to address this attitude of gender discrimination. Social welfare schemes such as Kanya Suraksha Yojna, free education to girls, Bicycle Yojna, 50% reservations to women in Panchayat elections and 35% reservation in the appointment of constables have been devised to defeat the social milieu of considering girl child as a compulsory burden as a non-earning member of the family. Concerted efforts have also been made to address the alarming decrease in the number of girls under 6 years, as compared to boys. This study is one of the initiatives which was undertaken to assess the status of implementation of the PCPNDT Act in the state and to map the number and locations of ultrasound machines. This study undertaken in collaboration with UNFPA also assessed the compliance of registered facilities to the Act, as well as the capacities of the state and district appropriate authorities to implement this Act. This study report has highlighted the grey areas in the implementation of the Act and has provided clear insights on ultrasonography centers operational in the state without registration. The findings of the study provide the need for plugging gap in the policy and programmatic directions for all the key stakeholders working on the issue in order to improve the situation in the state. The findings incorporated are really important for the state and would definitely contribute to guide us in preparing a comprehensive road map for addressing many aspects related to the issue of declining sex ratio in the state.

As one of the key measure to address gender biased sex selection and to reverse the distorted sex ratio at birth, the Government of Bihar is implementing the Pre-Conception and Pre-Natal Diagnostic Technique (PCPNDT) Act to regulate the proper use of modern medical technology like ultrasonography. Addressing gender biased sex selection has also been one of the areas of priority programming for UNFPA in India. Extensive research and advocacy has been supported to arrest decline in ratios. In view of this, the state government wanted to partner with UNFPA to understand the effectiveness of Act implementation in the state, map the number of ultrasound facilities and assess capacities of state and district authorities to implement the Act. Based on the request from state health society and Department of Health, this study was commissioned by UNFPA to undertake detail mapping of functional ultrasonography centers in the state, assess the compliance by the center with the Act and effectiveness of Act implementation in the state. The study also attempted to test the methodology of mapping of centres given its potential for replication in other states. Alongwith development of detailed tools, through snowballing, efforts were made to tap into the information network on the ground to identify especially those ultrasound facilities that may be operating illegally. Thus, a wider listing of all the ultrasonography centers was enabled, beyond the registered ones already on government records. This study would not have been possible without the support of Department of Health, State Health Society, radiologists and gynaecologists who assisted with critical information. UNFPA is particularly thankful to Shri Deepak Kumar – Principal Secretary Health, Shri Sanjay Kumar Singh – Executive Director, State Health Society and Dr. N. K. Mishra – State Programme Officer for their guidance and valuable suggestions. The support of all the civil surgeons was much needed and valuable to complete the data collection from the private providers. UNFPA also takes this opportunity to thank all the team members from Social and Rural Research Institute for their tireless efforts in facilitating all aspects of this study, particularly, managing data collection on this sensitive issue at the field level. Ms. Ena Singh, Dr. Nilesh Deshpande, Ms. Dhanashri Brahme and Mr. Sanjay Kumar of the UNFPA team have made key contributions in conceptualizing the study, ensuring data quality, strengthening the analysis plan and firming up findings and recommendations emerging from this study. The support provided by Ms. Vidya Krishnamurthy in proof reading and design coordination is also acknowledged.

Executive Summary
Background and Objectives
From 1901 till the 1981 Census Bihar’s sex ratio used to be better than that of the country as a whole. However, the state’s 1991 sex ratio of 911 was much below the national sex ratio of 927. The 2001 Census recorded Bihar’s sex ratio as 919; it was still low compared to the national sex ratio of 933. Between the 2001 and 2011 Censuses, though the overall sex ratio improved by 10 points (from 933 to 943) for the country, Bihar’s sex ratio fell by 1 point ‒ from 919 to 918. The decline between the two censuses was far worse for Bihar’s child sex ratio: it fell by 7 points, from 942 to 935 (the child sex ratio of the country too declined by 9 points, from 927 in 2001 to 918 in 2011). Given the alarming decline in both the general and the child sex ratios in Bihar, it is pertinent to focus on the implementation of the Pre-Conception and Pre-Natal Diagnostic Techniques (PCPNDT) Act across the state. The current study envisages mapping all the ultrasonography (USG) clinics in the state since this technology is being misused to determine the sex of a foetus; the gender bias in favour of boys influencing the resultant fall in sex ratios.The study also assesses the status of implementation of the Act in the state as a response to tackling illegal sex determination. The core objectives of the current study can be summarised as follows: ~~To create a database of ultrasound clinics in the state. ~~To assess the degree of preparedness of various stakeholders in the state towards PCPNDT Act implementation. ~~To understand the views and role of medical professional bodies in PCPNDT Act implementation in the state. 6 Mapping of Ultrasound Clinics and Assessment of Status of Implementation of PC & Pndt Act in Bihar

Key Findings Mapping
Registered Clinics – A total of 1,059 registered and more than 140 unregistered clinics were identified across the state. Almost all the centres said that they provide ultrasound services. More than a fourth of the facilities also offer gynaecological and surgical services. Nine percent of the facilities were found to provide Medical Termination of Pregnancy (MTP) services as well. Only about half the facilities that provided MTP services reported that they were registered under the MTP Act. However, about 12 percent of the facilities were able to produce the registration certificate when the interviewers wanted to see them. While all the respondents said that the USG machine was registered, more than 30 percent of them were either unable, or refused, to produce the certificate for verification. Six percent of the respondents also said that the machine was currently not in working order and an overwhelming 60 percent of these 57 respondents also said that they had not informed their respective Appropriate Authorities regarding these unusable machines. A majority of them (72 percent) could not provide a reason for not informing the authorities, although another 22 percent were not aware that such information needs to be reported. As a part of the study, the registered clinics were requested to show the registration details so that they could be verified and noted down. While 80 percent of the clinics did produce these details, close to a fifth of the respondents refused to share the details with the interviewers. When asked regarding the maintenance of records, a third of the respondents could not provide a response. Less than 60 percent of the respondents reported that they maintained Form F, a critical component of the Act. Only about 21 percent reported that they maintained Form G, another critical component, while 41 percent reported that they maintained patient declaration forms. Similarly, one fourth of the respondents that maintain form F clearly said that they did not submit the form to the appropriate authorities of the district. When asked why, more than half could not provide a reason for withholding the forms. Thus, a majority of the respondents were able to spontaneously identify only two of the requirements of the Act, both of which pertained to the display or restriction of display of materials. Less than 10 percent were able to recall that the Act required them to maintain Form G and submit necessary forms to the district appropriate authorities (DAA). Unregistered Clinics - A total of 77 interviews could be completed with unregistered ultrasound clinics out of the 145 verified unregistered facilities across the state, identified using the snowballing method. In a majority of the cases the facility was a private nursing home and hospital while about 40 percent were found to be stand-alone diagnostic laboratories. The rate of no response for some questions was found to be high in many of these cases. Thus, 57 percent of the respondents did not tell the interviewers the number of people who worked in the facility. It was noted that only in 44 percent of the cases, the owner had an MBBS qualification. In 49 percent of the cases, the key operating person in the lab was also the owner. The most critical point in these cases is that the respondents did not provide any answer when asked whether they had ever applied for registration under the PCPNDT Act. While some of the facilities do display some of the required materials, the proportion of non-compliance is very high and a majority of the respondents do not comply with at least one of the legal requirements. This proportion is also higher as compared to registered facilities. 8 Mapping of Ultrasound Clinics and Assessment of Status of Implementation of PC & Pndt Act in Bihar
Implementation of the PCPNDT Act
In order to understand the extent of implementation of the PCPNDT Act in the state, interviews were conducted with the appropriate authorities and advisory committees in all the districts of Bihar. These interviews were semi-structured in nature and covered the structures and management systems of these bodies along with the extent of monitoring and supervision and the awareness levels in the district. Out of a total of 114 targeted interviews, 94 could be completed. The first crucial finding was that the District Advisory Committees (DACs) have not been formed in every district of the state. As many as 48 percent of the respondents were not aware of when the DAC was first established in their district. It was noted that in more than 70 percent of the cases, the DAC was first established more than 5 years ago and in about 29 percent of these cases it was not re-constituted every 3 years as required under the Act. When the District Appropriate Authorities (DAAs) were asked the reasons for not reconstituting the DAC, half of them felt that it was not necessary; 17 percent did not provide a response while another 17 percent said that the current DAC has been performing very well and that was the reason they had not reconstituted the body. All medical expert positions of the DAC were filled in 97 percent of the districts covered as part of this component. In 77 percent of the cases, the position of legal expert and one social worker were filled. The official from the department of information was a member of the DAC in 43 percent of the cases, and the second and third social worker positions (three such positions are mandated for each DAC) were filled in 47 percent and 20 percent of the cases respectively. The DAA in more than 50 percent of the cases also mentioned that the DAC members had not been trained in the PCPNDT Act and their roles and duties. More than 60 percent of the DAC members also corroborated this fact although more than 75 percent of the members had been part of the DAC for longer than a year. Ninety percent of the Appropriate Authorities also mentioned that they undertake monitoring visits on a regular basis. It was also reported in one fourth of the cases that records of all monitoring visits were not maintained. More than 80 percent of the respondents of the DAC mentioned that there were no cases of violation of the PCPNDT Act in their district. However, 50 percent of the civil surgeons interviewed reported that records were not submitted by the clinics in the district and as many as 71 percent reported that they did not receive Form F from all clinics. 75 percent of DAC members were of the view that no legal action was taken against those found violating the law. Further, not a single case was reported in which any sentence was issued by the courts, whether in terms of a fine or imprisonment.A majority of the respondents could spontaneously recall the requirement that display of advertisements regarding sex determination were prohibited. Less than 10 percent could recall the maintenance of form G and client declaration and submission of records to DAA, while one-third could spontaneously recall maintenance of Form F.
In conclusion
The overarching objective of this study was to understand the extent of implementation of the PCPNDT Act in the state of Bihar since 1994 when it was first passed by Parliament and to identify therein. The findings, based on interviews at the facilities and with government officials, indicate that the Act has been only partially implemented in the state. Executive Summary 9
The study points to several lapses in Act implementation as well as serious violation of the law, particularly with reference to the functioning of unregistered ultrasound centres. It is of critical importance that the state initiate legal proceedings against such violations and strengthen Act implementation – one of the many crucial actions that need to be taken to address sex selection and overall gender discrimination. Missing Women and Prenatal Diagnostics in India – The Context
The release of the Census 2011 report brought with it some alarming news. Despite a variety of measures taken by the government and other organisations to improve the child sex ratio1 in India, it had dropped to 918 females against 1,000 males – the lowest since Independence. This reinforced the belief that the problem of son preference in India persists due to numerous socioeconomic causes and with the emergence of modern, scientific pre-natal diagnostic methods; the seriousness of it seems to have increased. Sex Ratios in India – The historical perspective
Son preference and a skewed sex ratio is not a new phenomenon in India and were in fact noted in the earliest censuses conducted in the country. There was then, as there is now, a theory that widespread poverty caused this skew in the sex ratio.2 This theory however does not hold entirely true when considered in light of the fact that far poorer nations have sex ratios in favour of women and even in India, the ratios are more adverse in urban and affluent areas than in rural, remote districts.

1 In India, the child sex ratio is defined as the number of females per thousand males in the age group 0–6 years in a human population. 2 Where Have All the Young Girls Gone? Identification of Sex Selection in India”, Sonia Bhalotra and Tom Cochrane, IZA, Discussion Paper 5381, December 2010. 10 Mapping of Ultrasound Clinics and Assessment of Status of Implementation of PC & Pndt Act in Bihar
In the beginning of the 20th century, the sex ratio in colonial India was 972 women per 1,000 men; it declined by -8, -11, -5 and -5 points in 1911, 1921, 1931 and 1941 respectively. During the 1951 Census it improved by +1 point. In 1961, 1971, 1981 and 1991 it declined by -5, -11, -4, -7 points respectively.
Table 2. Sex ratio in India, 1951 to 2011
Year Overall Sex Ratio Decadal Variation Child Sex Ratio Decadal Variation 1951 946 983 1961 941 -5 976 -7 1971 930 -11 964 -12 1981 934 -4 962 -2 1991 927 -7 945 -17 2001 933 +6 927 -18 2011 940 +7 919 -8
Even though the overall sex ratio improved by +6 points, decline in the child sex ratio (0-6 age group) was of -18 points, which is alarmingly high.3 Child sex ratio is a more sensitive indicator that displays the status of the girl child. It can be seen from Table 2 that child sex ratio has been declining faster than the overall sex ratio. In recent decades, the child sex ratio has been dropping more precipitously. A child sex ratio of 918, according to the 2011 census, against the overall sex ratio of 940 indicates the severity of the problem. While there have been declining trends in child sex ratio at the national level, the distribution across the country has been uneven with some regions demonstrating greater decline than others. The analysis on the distribution of villages and urban agglomerations (UA) by various categories of the child sex ratio highlights the intensity of the problem.4

Trends in Sex Ratio in Bihar
As can be seen from Table 4, the sex ratio is not uniform across the country. It has been declining faster in some states compared to others. Further, states which demonstrated a healthy sex ratio a few decades back are now showing fast declining trends. The overall sex ratio in Bihar has seen a declining trend as the following table demonstrates.5
Table 5. Overall sex ratio trends in Bihar
Decade Overall Sex Ratio Decadal Variation 1901 1061 1911 1051 -10 1921 1020 -31 1931 995 -25 1941 1002 +7 1951 1000 -2 1961 1005 +5 1971 957 -48 1981 948 -9 1991 907 -41 2001 919 +12 2011 918 -1
Thus while the overall sex ratio at the start of the last century in Bihar was substantially higher than the national average of 972, in 2011 it dropped well below the national average of 943. Placing the concern in focus, the following table presents the trends in child sex ratio across the state in the last few decades.6
Table 6. Child sex ratio trends in Bihar
Decade Child Sex Ratio Decadal Variation 1981 981 1991 953 -28 2001 942 -11 2011 935 -7
It can be seen that the child sex ratio at 935 in Bihar as per the 2011 census is comparatively better than the national child sex ratio. However, there is a visible steady decline over the last few decades which combined with the falling overall child sex ratios is a matter of concern.
Even within the state there are significant differences in the child sex ratio across districts. This lack of uniformity can be understood from the following map and further complicates matters as some areas of the state are seen to have a sex ratio far lower than the state average thus presenting serious problems for policy makers.

Impact of Modern Pre-Natal Diagnostic Methods
Advances in medical science have resulted in sex determination and sex pre-selection techniques such as sonography, foetoscopy, needling, chorion villi biopsy (CVB) and the most popular, amniocentesis and ultrasound, have become increasingly common not only in urban India, but also in the rural parts of the country. Indian metropolises are the major centres for sex determination and sex pre-selection tests with sophisticated laboratories; the techniques of amniocentesis and ultrasound are used even in the clinics of small towns and cities of Gujarat, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Madhya Pradesh, Punjab, West Bengal, Tamil Nadu and Rajasthan.7 Pre-natal diagnostic techniques include gynaecological and medical tests for pregnant women. Mostly conducted to detect genetic and metabolical diseases as well as congenital and chromosomal abnormalities, these tests are finding themselves misused in order to detect the sex of the foetus in order to facilitate pre-natal sex selection. Pre-conception diagnosis takes it a step further and involves the same tests which are used to conduct different types of analysis before and after conception but are mostly used to predict the sex of the foetus after conception and this can potentially lead to gender biased sex selection.

While most of these tests were uncommon due to their high cost a few decades ago, proliferation of ultrasound clinics and lowering of costs has made such techniques accessible to anyone who wishes to determine the sex of the foetus and use it for sex selection. This was recognised as a threat by various non-government organisations towards the end of the 1980s and they began concerted advocacy in order for the government to take cognisance of this concern and to take appropriate measures to tackle the problem. PCPNDT Act - Need and Establishment
The Pre-Natal Diagnostic Techniques (Regulation and Prevention of Misuse) Act (the PNDT Act for short) came into being in 1996. This was as a result of a campaign in 1986 that included women’s groups and health activists. The campaign resulted in the Maharashtra government appointing a committee, which followed formulation of an Act at the state level in 1988. Given the concern of the then Health Secretary of Maharashtra and other organisations this issue was taken up at the Central government level resulting in the formulation of the Pre-Natal Diagnostic Techniques (Regulation and Prevention of Misuse) Act, 1994 (PNDT Act) which was brought into force from Jan 1, 1996. Following a public interest litigation filed owing to the non-implementation of the law and the need to address other legal lacunae, the law was amended in 2003. It is now called Pre-conception and Prenatal Diagnostic Techniques (Prohibition of Sex Selection) Act, 1994.
The CEHAT Campaign
1976 Government passed a partial ban on sex determination tests. 1982 Private clinics offering sex determination tests came to the limelight, civil society groups protested against them. 1985 Formation of the forum against sex determination and sex pre-selection. 1988 Passing of the Maharashtra Act. 1994 Passing of the Central Act, Pre-Natal Diagnostic Techniques Act, (Regulation and Prevention of Misuse). 2003 Act amended and renamed as Pre-conception and Pre-natal Diagnostic Techniques (Prohibition of Sex Selection) Act, 1994
The Act states its intent as - “An Act to provide for the regulation of the use of pre-natal diagnostic techniques for the purpose of detecting genetic abnormalities or certain congenital malformations or sex-linked disorders and for the prevention of the misuse of such techniques for the purpose of pre-natal sex-determination leading to female foeticide, and for matters connected therewith or incidental thereto”. Executive Summary 15
It consists of eight chapters with a broad focus on the following information: ~~The establishments that conduct these tests i.e. genetic counselling centres, genetic clinics, genetic laboratories ~~The professionals who could conduct this test i.e. a gynaecologist, medical geneticist and paediatrician ~~The conditions in which this test can be conducted ~~The pre-requisites to be fulfilled before conducting these tests ~~The administrative structures that need to be set up for the effective implementation of this Act i.e. the Central Supervisory board and the State Appropriate Authority and Advisory Committee ~~Procedure for registration of the establishments, grounds for cancellation or suspension of registration ~~Offences and penalties ~~Maintenance of records and power to search and seize records
Thus, the first legal response from the Government of India came in the form of the Pre-natal Diagnostic Techniques (PNDT) Act in 1994, and the same was further amended in 2003 as a powerful legal instrument to foster positive change in this modern sociological trend. But, as shown by several studies, its implementation has been weak. In the more than 15 years of the law being in place, a little over 600 cases were lodged using the law across India; although official, accurate figures are hard to come by, the total number of convictions using the Act is roughly 20, as per the study conducted in 2010.8

PART I INTRODUCTION
Background of the Study
From 1901 till the 1981, Census Bihar’s sex ratio used to be better than that of the country as a whole, as seen in the previous section. However, the state’s 1991 sex ratio of 911 was much below the national sex ratio of 927. The 2001 Census recorded Bihar’s sex ratio as 919; it was still low compared to the national sex ratio of 933. Between the 2001 and 2011 Censuses, though the overall sex ratio improved by 10 points (from 933 to 943) for the country, Bihar’s sex ratio fell by 1 point ‒ from 919 to 918. The decline between the two censuses was far worse for Bihar’s child sex ratio: it fell by 7 points, from 942 to 935 (the child sex ratio of the country too declined by 9 points, from 927 in 2001 to 918 in 2011). The government currently possesses a powerful tool for arresting the declining child sex ratio in the form of the Pre-Conception and Pre-Natal Diagnostic Techniques (PCPNDT) Act and seeks to ensure its complete implementation across the state. Given the decline in both–the general and the child sex ratios, it was pertinent to focus on implementing PCPNDT Act across the state. It was in this context that the Government of Bihar approached UNFPA for assistance in evaluating the current levels of implementation across the state in order to identify gaps and possible shortcomings. To this end, the current study sought to map all the ultrasound clinics in the state as well as to assess the status of implementation of the Act and identify the possible areas for improvement. This report briefly presents the findings of this endeavour. Objectives of the Study
The core objectives of the current study can be summarised as follows: ~~The primary objective of the study was to create an up-to-date database of ultrasound clinics across Bihar. ~~Further, the study sought to assess the status of preparedness of various stakeholders in the implementation of PCPNDT Act in the state. ~~Finally, the study also sought to understand the views on and role of medical professional bodies in implementing PCPNDT Act in the state. 18 Mapping of Ultrasound Clinics and Assessment of Status of Implementation of PC & Pndt Act in Bihar
Research Design
The research design for this study has been explained in detail in the following pages. The section will be classified into the following: 1) Geographical Coverage 2) Target Groups 3) Sampling Methodology
Geographical Coverage
The study covered the entire state as the key objective is to develop a comprehensive database of ultrasound clinics in Bihar. The study was, therefore, conducted in all 534 blocks in the 38 districts, including the district headquarters of the state.
Target Groups
The target groups for the present study are as follows: ~~All USG service providers both–registered and unregistered ~~Nodal officer from State Health Society ~~Members of the State Advisory Committee ~~Nodal officer from Directorate of Health ~~Members of FOGSI (Federation of Obstetric and Gynaecological Societies of India) ~~Members of Indian Medical Association both–at the state and district level ~~Members of the Radiology Association in the state ~~Civil Surgeon at district level ~~Members of District Advisory Committee ~~State Supervisory Board members
Methodology Ultrasound facility mapping and interviews The starting point for this exercise was the details provided in the compiled list of USG providers available with the government. The list of all registered ultrasound providers was collected in each district from the office of the civil surgeon. The field teams then visited all the providers in the list and approached them for an interview. The teams anticipated there would be some machines that would not be registered with the government; in order to identify such unregistered machines, the teams adopted the snowballing technique. The teams visited all district headquarters, towns and 534 block headquarters in the state for the mapping exercise. Interviews were conducted for those providers appeared in the list provided by the Government. Introduction 19
In order to identify and locate unregistered clinics with UGG machines, snowballing technique was adopted and followed the procedure detailed below:
Snowballing Methodology The following approach was used in the snowballing technique - Figure 3: The snowballing method
1. Transect 2. Broad walk mapping 3. Listing
4. Snowball Structured sampling Interviews
1. Transect walk and key informant interviews The study used transect walk as the preliminary tool. This information-gathering exercise helps a study describe and show the location and distribution of key features and/or personnel in a given area. The transect walk helped the team identify the key informants for the key informants interviews. 2. Broad mapping exercise The broad mapping exercise was intended to provide a general overview of the entire geographical area; it was the basis for an accurate mapping of the areas with a high probability of finding unregistered USG service providers. The broad mapping for the block headquarters was carried out in the following manner: On reaching the block headquarters, the field team first conducted short interviews with key informants like the Block Development Officer (BDO), Medical Officer in-Charge (MOIC) of the Government facility, medical store owners, paan shop owner etc. to identify areas like hospitals (government and private), nursing homes, gynaecologists etc. in the block where there is a probability of finding the USG providers. The details sought about these locations included details of address, landmarks, working hours etc. In case of bigger cities/towns with more than 300,000 population, the broad mapping exercise was done by creating five equal segments on the basis of the map of the town/city. In each of the segments 5 Key Informant interviews were conducted to identify areas like hospitals (government and private), nursing homes, gynaecologists etc. where there is a probability of finding unregistered USG providers. 20 Mapping of Ultrasound Clinics and Assessment of Status of Implementation of PC & Pndt Act in Bihar
3. Listing Based on the information provided by the key informant interviews, the listing of all the USG service providers of the block was conducted. A comprehensive list of USG service providers was prepared including those mentioned in the list received from the civil surgeon (also the District Appropriate Authority – DAA) as well as the key informant interviews. In order to prepare a final list and ensure that no facility was missed out, a saturation approach was followed. This required the listing of all facilities from the key informant interviews and the continuation of such interviews until such time that the names of facilities began repeating themselves and no new names were found. In essence, the informant interviews continued until such time as the information was saturated, thus ensuring that all facilities in the area were identified. The team members also conducted mystery interviews by randomly identifying important transit points in a block and seeking information about ultrasound facilities in the area without revealing the study details to the informants. After identifying all the facilities in this manner, the teams then visited and after verification prepared a final list of registered and unregistered ultrasound facilities in the district. For the purposes of the study, all the ultrasound facilities which were not mentioned in the records available in the Civil Surgeon’s office were considered to be unregistered facilities. In addition to the steps mentioned as part of the listing, the USG service providers interviewed were also asked about any other similar provider working in the area about whom they know. The details were appended in the existing list of USG providers and interviews were conducted with them as well. These newly identified providers were further questioned regarding more facilities thus creating a snowball effect of identifying newer facilities from the already listed facilities. Additionally, information was sought informally from local residents, residents of nearby villages and other informants regarding the location of any known (possibly unregistered) facilities. Interviews: Structured interviews were conducted with all the USG service providers mentioned in the compiled list (registered or unregistered) prepared during the listing exercise. The facility observations were also recorded. Given the sensitive nature of the study, the interviewers were adequately trained in tactfully gaining information with due consideration to research ethics. In some cases facility owners refused to give an interview when the objective of the research was made clear to them. In certain other cases, the facilities were found to be locked over numerous visits and it was not possible to locate the owner/ manager of the facility; in such situations interviews could not be conducted, but the names and the addresses of the USG centres have been recorded and provided in the list. In such case of unregistered facilities where complete structured interviews were not feasible, the interviewers collected the basic information. Additionally, taking into account the sensitivity of the study subject, a different and shorter interview schedule was used in case of unregistered ultrasound facilities which avoided asking direct questions on the PCPNDT Act in order to avoid conflicts. Thus, the entire listing process took into account disparate sources of information, both–within and outside the administration and sought to obtain information from each of these sources thus constantly adding to the existing information while also cross verifying it in the process. In order to ensure that the process was comprehensive, the field teams visited all the district headquarters and 534 blocks in the state over a period of 6 weeks. An attempt was thus made to implement as robust an identification methodology as possible. Introduction 21

Implementation Protocol and Data Management for the Study Finalisation of Research Tool
The research team of SRI-IMRB along with UNFPA developed the following tools as part of the study : ~~Structured questionnaire for registered ultrasound providers ~~Structured questionnaire for unregistered ultrasound providers ~~Structured observation tools for ultrasound providers ~~Listing and snowballing tools ~~Semi-structured questionnaire for District Appropriate Authority interviews ~~Semi-structured questionnaire for District Advisory Committee interviews ~~Discussion guides for in-depth interviews with state level authorities, IMA and FOGSI representatives
All the research tools were: ~~Finalised in consultation with the client ~~Translated from English into Hindi ~~Translated back from Hindi into English to ensure accuracy of translation and better quality of research tools ~~Pilot tested on the field to check for inconsistencies and other suggestions that will enhance the quality of research tools 22 Mapping of Ultrasound Clinics and Assessment of Status of Implementation of PC & Pndt Act in Bihar
The primary issues to be tested at the time of pilot testing were as follows: ~~Flow of the questions ~~Ease in understanding the questions by respondents ~~Ease in administering the tool ~~Length and time required in administering the tool ~~Comprehensiveness in terms of information coverage ~~Skipping, additional instructions etc. for field investigators ~~Testing of the language used and appropriateness of translations ~~Logistical planning for data collection
Planning and Preparation of Fieldwork This stage included a series of activities that are necessary for launching the fieldwork.These were: 1) Printing of the tools After incorporating the feedback from the pilot test and proof reading both–the Hindi and English versions, the questionnaires were given for printing. Before giving for printing, the analysis team designed the cards (for all the variables were to be entered in the electronic medium) to simplify the process of data entry. 2) Preparation of Field Brief Notes and Investigator Manual Before training of the survey teams for the field work, the researchers prepared detailed manuals covering the following topics: ~~A brief introduction to the survey including the objectives ~~Introduction to the specific component of the study ~~Survey design (Flow chart of activities) ~~Respondent definition ~~Listing methodology (in detail) ~~Ethical considerations and instructions for conducting honest and fair fieldwork ~~Administering the tool and coding related instructions ~~Scrutiny instructions ~~Question-by-question explanation of responses and possible ways of probing information.
Training of Investigators
The training was conducted as follows: Training of Field Survey Staff – Centralised training Given the scope of the study and the sensitive nature of the information to be captured from the mapping component as well as the need to interview senior government stakeholders in the districts and the state, the investigators needed to be sensitive, comfortable and knowledgeable on the issues being discussed with the respondents. For this, a thorough training was conducted to make the investigators fully adept at using the research instruments as well as the listing procedures to be implemented in the field. Training was conducted in a participatory manner and all investigators were briefed in a three-day training session for each component. All the investigators, supervisors and field executives were rigorously trained for data collection in the study with the help of the Investigator Manual that was developed for the purpose. Introduction 23
Separate training sessions were conducted with the teams for the two components of the study, namely the mapping and the district interviews component. The training for the mapping study was conducted between the 25th and 27th October 2012 and was spread across 3 days as follows: Day 1 & 2 - Classroom training on the study Day 3 - Mock calls and debriefing The following topics were covered in the training programme: ~~The orientation to the study ~~Key objectives of the survey ~~Administration of the research tools ~~Listing Methods ~~Interviewing Techniques ~~Quality Control ~~Other ethics and norms for the fieldwork ~~Training on the questionnaire administration along with field visits
The following techniques were used for classroom training: 1) Mock Interviews – one trainee interviews another 2) Demonstration interviews – conducted by the trainer with the class 3) Front-of-class interview – one trainee interviewing another in front of the class 4) Quizzes – conducted at the end of explanation of every schedule
Final Selection of the Surveyor (Investigators and Supervisors) was made based on their understanding and execution of the sampling techniques, questionnaires and exhibition of interviewing skills during the field training exercise. A similar training exercise was conducted for the district level stakeholder interviews in February and a second trained team was employed to complete the necessary interviews.
Data Collection and Scrutiny
Data Collection - The entire fieldwork for the survey was managed and controlled by the Patna field teams with the technical support from SRI-IMRB, Delhi. The following quality control structure was instituted during the fieldwork to ensure utmost quality of data collected. Each team of investigators was led by a supervisor who supervised the fieldwork for his/her team: The supervisor also carried out on-field quality checks, apart from 50 percent spot checks, to ensure data quality. Spot checks, in this context, refer to making sure that the investigators are conducting the interviews in identified locations. Accompaniments: In an accompaniment the supervisor accompanied the investigator to the interview, to see if he or she was comfortable with the flow of the questionnaire, was canvassing the questions and recording the responses correctly. These were mostly carried out in the early phases of the fieldwork. A comprehensive scrutiny of all completed questionnaires was done at two different levels: ~~Field Level and ~~ Analysis Level 24 Mapping of Ultrasound Clinics and Assessment of Status of Implementation of PC & Pndt Act in Bihar

Overall quality at 100% Scrutiny, Field Manager Supervisor the state level accompaniments, back (State level) checks and spot checks Field 30% Scrutiny, Executive accompaniments, back checks and spot checks
Field Level: Field editors inspected each and every question of all completed questionnaires for coding and logical checks before passing them on to the data entry division. This process went simultaneously to ensure proper and timely recovery of data in case of any loss or error while the fieldwork was on. Analysis Level: The analysis team inspected the data as per the requirements submitted to identify inconsistencies and flag errors. The intensity scale of these errors was rectified by the analysis team. The detailed explanation of the steps involved at this stage is elaborated in the following section, titled Data Analysis.
Protocol in case of refusals – ~~In case of the ultrasound providers, after a facility had been listed the team visited the facility and verified its address in the respective block. ~~An interview appointment was sought with the owner/manager of the facility after explaining the nature and purpose of the survey. If the permission for the interview was granted, the interview was conducted immediately. If an appointment was granted for a later date, the team revisited on the specified time and conducted the interview. Care was taken to interview the appropriate respondent – either the owner or the key manager of the facility. ~~In case of refusal, the observation exercise was conducted with the facility and in case of registered facilities another attempt was made at a later date to conduct the interview. ~~At least 3 such visits were made to every facility. If the interview was not granted after the 3rd visit, a refusal was noted and no further attempts for an interview were made subsequently. ~~Similarly, for the stakeholder interviews, the teams sought prior appointment for an interview and made multiple visits in case the appointment was not granted the first time. ~~In some districts, where the respective respondents refused an interview, the teams noted a refusal in their case and made no further attempts to interview them.
Data Analysis
Software for analysis The electronic data after final cleaning were analysed using specialised software like SPSS and quantum. This software was used to run the frequencies and percentages, cross-tabulations, correlations, significance tests and other statistical tests on the cleaned data. All data was analysed in accordance with a pre-decided tabulation plan. The plan detailed the manner in which each and every bit of information obtained in the survey was to be analysed and the parameters which required further analysis. Introduction 25
Coding of the open-ended questions was done by the investigators during the data collection exercise under the supervision of the team leaders. All data was coded, punched, cleaned and validated before being subjected to analysis. Data was coded in FoxPro, Quantum Software, developed in-house was used for generating the frequency tables. This package is capable of providing frequency distributions, cross-tabulations, standard deviations and means. For conducting significance tests and other analysis, the SPSS PC+ (Version 17.0) package was used. Quality checks were made on the data at random.
Data management Following care was taken during the analysis of data- ~~All the data was entered into electronic databases in FoxPro format, which can also be converted into Excel or any other format as the need may be. ~~A programme was used for the data-entry of the questionnaires, which provided automatic logical checks while entering the data. A software programme was prepared for checking these logical errors. ~~100% of the data was re-checked prior to starting the analysis. ~~Each centre was given a unique code and the same was entered in the data records. This centre code was used to differentiate the records by centres, as they were sequentially numbered.
Ethical Considerations
Ethical considerations are very important in research studies that require the participation of human participants. To this end, the field team followed all regulations or guidelines governing research ethics. One of the most critical ethical guideline is the respect for persons participating in the survey. Respect for persons recognises the capacity and rights of all individuals to make their own choices and decisions. It refers to the respect of the autonomy and self-determination of all human beings, acknowledging their dignity and freedom. The basic principles governing the ethical conduct of research are informed consent. It was ensured that voluntary informed consent was taken from the respondents. Informed consent was obtained from the respondent if s/he:- ~~Has received the necessary information and has adequately understood this information. It is essential that the information provided is understood by the potential participant and empowers that person to make a voluntary decision about whether or not to participate in the study. To this end, the investigators explained the scope of the study. ~~Has the capacity to consent for their own participation and participation of children or ward below the age of 18 years. ~~Has arrived at a decision without having been subjected to coercion, undue influence or inducement, or intimidation of any kind. ~~Has comprehended the risks and benefits involved if any in participating in the study.
Essential elements of informed consent In order to ensure that a research participant receives the necessary information to make an informed decision, the participant was provided with the following: ~~Description of the research and nature of participation required 26 Mapping of Ultrasound Clinics and Assessment of Status of Implementation of PC & Pndt Act in Bihar
~~Explanation of confidentiality ~~Whom to contact about the research and participant’s rights ~~Explanation that participation is voluntary
The process of obtaining informed consent: The initial 10 minutes of the conversation were focused on conveying to the respondents the nature of the study and develop comfort levels by clarifying the issues the respondents might have with the nature of the data required. Once the respondent gave verbal consent to the interview and the interviewer/moderator signed his/ her name indicating the verbal informed consent has been given, the process of collecting information was initiated. If any respondent refused to participate in the survey or withdrew from the survey, in this situation the interviewers/moderators respected the respondent’s rights and thanked them for their time. Limitations of the Study
This study was designed with the primary objective of mapping the ultrasound providers in the state including the unregistered providers. Further it was conducted in order to identify the lacunae in the system of implementation at present such that those gaps could be addressed once identified.Thus the study had to be completed under certain limitations that are inherent in studies of such nature and that have been briefly mentioned as follows – ~~While the method used to identify ultrasound providers was sought to be made as comprehensive as possible, absolute certainty in stating that the compiled list is complete is difficult. ~~Owing to the nature of the study and its objective, one cannot ensure absolute cooperation from the respondents. Especially in case of unregistered providers, obtaining complete interviews was difficult. However every effort was made to gather as much information as possible without overstepping the ethical protocol that is mandated for research of this nature. ~~Due to the need to contact professionals holding important and challenging positions in the government machinery and medical profession, it was not always possible to obtain as much time from them for interviews as the study demanded. However, every effort was made as per a pre- fixed protocol to complete as many interviews as comprehensively as possible and to ensure the completeness of the data as per the objectives of the research.

State Overview
The most critical component of the study as mentioned in the previous section was the mapping segment. This exercise was used in order to get a comprehensive picture of not only the number and distribution of the registered ultrasound providers but also get an understanding of the following – ~~Profile and nature of services provided by the facilities ~~Compliance with rules of the PCPNDT Act ~~Awareness of the requirements of the PCPNDT Act.
Additionally, the exercise also sought to identify and locate all the unregistered ultrasound clinics that operate in the state. This exercise comprising listing, observations of facilities and structured interviews was conducted comprehensively across all district headquarters and blocks in the state and a list of all identified ultrasound service providers could be created as a result.This list is provided in the Annexure II to this report. In this chapter, an attempt will be made to get a broader picture of the availability of ultrasound services in the state as well as district level snapshot of the same. Additionally, the level of compliance with the PCPNDT Act, not just in terms of registration but also in terms of submission of records, display of materials and other requirements of the Act that were enquired into during the facility observations and structured interviews with providers will be analysed. The following table gives an overall picture of the distribution of registered and unregistered facilities across the state as identified during the mapping exercise.
Table 7. USG facilities identified and listed in the state
Originally listed Verified Unable to verify Verified registered Total with government unregistered status 1201 1059 145 126 1330
It must also be noted at this stage that not all the facilities that were identified could be interviewed. This is owing to refusals in many cases and the inability to contact the owners or managers of the facilities despite multiple visits to the facilities. While this is a limitation of the methodology adopted, it was in pursuance of the ethical requirements of such studies. It must also be noted that the number of interviewed facilities mentioned in the table refers to the interviews that could be completed entirely. There were also a number of incomplete interviews that were conducted before the respondent terminated them midway. 28 Mapping of Ultrasound Clinics and Assessment of Status of Implementation of PC & Pndt Act in Bihar
The following table further provides the number of facilities originally listed with the DAA and those that were subsequently identified along with their verified or unverified registration status.
Table 8. Number of facilities originally listed with the government and their verified registration status.
Registration Status Unverified Total Yes No Originally listed Yes 1055 55 91 1201 No 4 90 35 129 Total 1059 145 126 1330
Thus among the total 1,201 facilities originally listed with the respective district Appropriate Authority offices, ~~1,055 were verified as registered, ~~55 were found to be unregistered due to a lapse of registration status and ~~The registration status of 91 facilities could not be verified due to a refusal to respond by the owner or manager of these facilities.
Further 129 facilities that were not originally listed with the DAA offices were located during the course of the study. ~~Out of these 129 facilities, 4 had valid registrations, ~~90 were confirmed to be unregistered, ~~The registration status of 35 facilities could not be verified due to lack of response. A complete district-wise breakup is provided at the end of this chapter while a detailed list of all these facilities is provided in the Annexure I.
Registered Facilities Profile and Compliance
The current section will seek to understand and analyse the information collected from registered ultrasound providers in the state that were identified and interviewed as part of the current study.
Table 9. Registered USG facilities interviewed in the state

As can be seen from the chart, more than half of the facilities interviewed were stand-alone diagnostic centres or laboratories. About a third was private nursing homes and laboratories whereas the remainder were either ultrasound facilities attached with government hospitals or infertility and ultrasound clinics. Of all these facilities 59 percent said that they had the ultrasound facilities since inception while 41 percent reported that they added the ultrasound unit at a later date. It was found that mostly the larger private and government hospitals added the ultrasound unit later, possibly since they include other services apart from ultrasound as their portfolio. This may be verified from the following chart.

Almost all the centres indicated that they provide stand-alone ultrasound services which are of key concern from the perspective of the study. More than a fourth of the facilities also offered gynaecological and surgical services. A total of 248 facilities reported that they offer gynaecological and ultrasound services while 2 facilities offer stand-alone gynaecological services. The investigators found 113 facilities offer infertility and ultrasound services while 1 facility was a stand-alone infertility clinic. It must be noted that 5 facilities said that they do not offer any of these services including ultrasound. They are, however, registered as ultrasound providers and do possess ultrasound machines. The teams found 9 percent of the facilities provide Medical Termination of Pregnancy (MTP) services as well. It was therefore critical from the perspective of the study to explore this aspect further. While adherence to the MTP Act was not a direct area of information explored by this study it was nevertheless crucial to know whether those who provide MTP services were at least registered under the MTP Act. Ideally, all the facilities which provide these services should be registered under the Act. The following chart, however, suggests that this is not entirely the case.

Base – All registered ultrasound providers offering MTP services (N = 83)
As can be seen, only about half (51%) the facilities that provided MTP services reported that they were registered under the MTP Act. Only about 12 percent of the facilities, though, were able to produce the registration certificate when the interviewers requested to see them.And when they enquired into the reasons for not registering under the Act all these facilities chose not to respond to the question. The respondents gave no response to numerous questions during the interviews and while this lack of information is inconclusive, it could be very important in an indicative manner. It is thus important to note that when asked for the number of radiologists and technicians working in the facility, 48% and 68% of the respondents did not answer in respective cases.

When the respondent was asked for the qualifications of the owner, it was found that the owner possessed a medical degree, MBBS and above in 49% of the cases while in the rest the highest qualification was a non-medical degree or less.

It was further noted using cross-tabulations that among the cases where the owner was identified as the key operating person in the facility, in 15% of the cases, the owner did not possess a medical degree. Non-medical degrees were found to include a range of qualifications such as BAMS, B Pharma and in many cases entirely unrelated degrees such as MA, B Sc. etc. When asked whether the radiologists and technicians that were employed by the facilities provided their services elsewhere, close to 44 percent of the respondents did not answer whether their radiologists also provided their services elsewhere and more than 60 percent refused to answer whether their technicians provided their services in other ultrasound centres. About 30 and 35 percent of the respondents stated that their radiologists and technicians, respectively, did not provide services elsewhere. Thus, more than two-thirds of the respondents are either unaware or unwilling to share the information whether their radiologists and technicians also provide services in other ultrasound centres. This lack of response can therefore be considered as an important finding of the study.
Machine Details
It was important to understand the details regarding the ultrasound machines that are operated by the facilities due to the strict norms of regulation of machinery specified under the PCPNDT Act. As many as 92 percent (876) of the facilities reported that they had only 1 ultrasound machine while the remaining had multiple machines that were operational. All the respondents were able to identify the brands of the machines, which leads to the conclusion that they possessed at least basic knowledge regarding the machine and its use. 32 Mapping of Ultrasound Clinics and Assessment of Status of Implementation of PC & Pndt Act in Bihar
Table 12. Details of facilities based on number of machines possessed
Base 957 Facilities with 1 machine 92% (876) Facilities with 2 machines 7% (70) Facilities with 3 machines 1% (10) Facilities with 4 machines 0% (1) Facilities with mobile machines 7% (78)
Further it was noted that more than 98 percent (1,043 out of 1,050) of the machines were purchased after 1994 i.e. after the Act was brought into force. While all the respondents said that the machine was registered, more than 30 percent (323) of them were either unable to or refused to produce the certificate for verification. Six percent of the respondents also said that the machine was currently not functional. However, more than 60 percent of these 57 respondents also said they had not informed their respective Appropriate Authorities regarding these unused machines which is in-violation of the rules, since service providers must inform the Appropriate Authority of any unused or non-functional ultrasound machines. A majority of those who had not informed the AA (72 percent) could not provide a reason for not doing so while another 22 percent were not aware that such information needs to be provided. This can be considered as an example of how lack of awareness can lead to non-compliance.
Table 13. Registration details of machines in registered ultrasound facilities
Base (All facilities approached) N= 1050 Base (All facilities with mobile machines) N=78 Machine registered 1046 Registered as mobile 44 Certificate shown 723 Registered in all districts 5 Mobile machines 78 Vehicle registered 5
Seven percent of the machines or a total of 78 machines were reported as being mobile machines. However, a little more than half of these machines (44) were registered as mobile while the remainder (34) had been registered as static machines. When this inconsistency was further probed, the respondents suggested in 99 percent (77 out of 78) of the cases that they used the machine as a static machine or only within the premises of the facility and therefore they had registered the machines as static machines. This is, however, in-violation of the rules as per the act. At the same time, while responding to the question of on where the machines are used, 92 percent (72) of the respondents reported that they used the machine in more than 1 district or region. Five of these respondents also reported that they had the machine registered in all districts while the others had not. Further, these 5 respondents also reported that they had registered the vehicle along with the machine. When asked for reasons for not registering the vehicle or the machine in multiple districts, none of the respondents ventured an answer, once more suggesting that the lack of a response might be of indicative value for the study of this nature. More than 85 percent of the respondents also did not specify how often they use the vehicle. Thus there are clear contradictions in terms of the responses provided for the use of mobile machines and compliance with the necessary norms in such cases. This provides a clear point of action for the authorities where identification of mobile machines which are registered as static machines is required. Mapping Ultrasonography Facilities 33
As part of the study, the registered clinics were requested to show the registration certificates for the clinics so that the details could be verified and noted down. While 80 percent of the clinics did produce these details, close to a fifth of the respondents refused to share the details with the interviewers. It was noted that the relevant details were mentioned on all the registration certificates that were verified by the investigators. Thus, of the 767 certificates seen, most details were noted on all of them. However, the name of the owner was noted only on 738 of 767 certificates while the name of radiologist was mentioned on only 363 certificates out of 767. It was further noted that 16 registrations had lapsed as on the date of interview.

When further asked regarding the maintenance of records, a third of the respondents (314 respondents) did not provide a response. Among the others, the responses to this multiple choice question regarding which records are maintained by them were provided as shown in the following chart.

As can be seen less than 60 percent of the respondents reported that they maintained Form F, a critical component of the Rules. Only about 21 percent reported that they maintained Form G while 41 percent reported that they maintained patient declarations forms. Close to 16 percent or 148 of the respondents reported that they maintained all of these records. Thus, complete compliance in terms of record maintenance was noted in less than one fifth of all interviewed ultrasound centres. When reasons were enquired into, more than 90 percent of these respondents could not provide a reason for not maintaining these records. 74 percent of the respondents who maintained patient declarations or Form G also said that they shared a copy of neither with the patient. Thus, it can be seen that even in cases of compliance it is only partial compliance. The reasons for this can be understood from the fact that half of these respondents also reported that they did not know that it was at all necessary to share a copy with patients. Thus, the overall awareness of requirements as per the PCPNDT Act is on the lower side which is leading to non-compliance due to lack of adequate, comprehensive knowledge of the requirements of the rules. This can similarly be seen from the fact that one fourth of the respondents that maintain Form F clearly said that they did not submit it to the District Appropriate Authority. When asked for the reason, more than half could not provide a response. A clear need thus emerges for greater awareness generation amongst the providers of ultrasound facilities regarding the expectations from them in terms of the PCPNDT Act and its rules.
Awareness of the Act
As discussed in the previous section, it appears that a significant number of the respondents are not aware of the requirements of the Act and are therefore unable to comply with them. While this in itself does not constitute a defence under the maxim, “Ignorantia juris non excusat”9, it does bring forth the need to explore their awareness and identify any such concerns. In the first place, it was noted that a fifth of the respondents (20 percent) had never heard of the PCPNDT Act. Among those that had heard of the Act, the following chart presents the spontaneous recall of the key provisions of the Act. It may be noted that the question was administered in such a way as to capture both the spontaneous as well as the prompted recall. Using this methodology, the respondents were first asked to mention the provisions of the PCPNDT Act that they recalled on their own. Once their responses had been exhausted, the remaining option choices were read out to them and the provisions they could recall on being prompted were noted separately. Both these sets of responses are presented in Chart 5. It can be seen that a majority of the respondents were able to spontaneously identify only two requirements of the Act, both of which pertained to the display or restriction of display of materials. Less than 10 percent were able to recall the requirement to maintain Form G or regarding the submission of forms to DAA. While the aided responses to these questions were much higher, there was very little spontaneous recall for the same. Further, in order to test comprehensive awareness, the response option of registration under the MTP Act was added as a false choice. While only WW3 percent of the respondents spontaneously suggested that this was mandated by the PCPNDT Act, a further 30 percent identified it on receiving a prompt. Thus it can be seen that the overall awareness and the comprehensive knowledge of the provisions of the Act is currently lacking.

Base – All registered ultrasound providers ever heard of PCPNDT Act (N = 762)
At the same time, more than 80 percent of the respondents said that the main objective of the Act is the prevention of sex determination. Such respondents are aware of what the Act is about even if they do not know the specific provisions of the Act. They were further able to identify the key practical points of their use such as the Civil Surgeon of the district being the authority to issue registration even if they were unfamiliar with the term Appropriate Authority. Further, a large number of respondents, though not all, could identify the duration of validity of registration, and the intervals at which Form Fs are to be submitted. More than 75 percent of the respondents also said that there was no problem in renewing registration or that they did not know of any problem. Thus it can be concluded that while a large number of the respondents do not know about the key provisions of the Act or the technical phrases used in the Act, they are aware of the key requirements that they as ultrasound providers are required to fulfil. It must also be noted that 29 percent of the facilities have never been inspected, according to the respondents. Based on this information, the following chart presents the findings on non-compliance with display requirements as identified during the observation component of the study. It must be noted that such observations were made even in unregistered clinics; a comparison of compliance with display regulations between the two categories of clinics are given in the following sections. 36 Mapping of Ultrasound Clinics and Assessment of Status of Implementation of PC & Pndt Act in Bihar

Thus, it can be seen that despite it being such an important requirement of the Act there were as many as 213 registered facilities that did not display a board in or around their clinic stating sex determination is illegal. Similarly, 399 facilities did not display their registration certificate and more than 70 percent of the facilities did not display the medical degree certificate of the doctor in charge. Thus, compliance is found to be low even in provisions that do not require a large amount of resources on the part of the facilities. This is an immediate cause for concern and measures need to be taken to remedy the situation with due urgency. Unregistered Clinics
The methodology for identifying and interviewing the unregistered ultrasound providers in the state was detailed in the previous section. Following the same methodology a total of 145 unregistered clinics could be identified across the state.
Table 15. Unregistered USG facilities identified and interviewed in the state
Verified unregistered Interviewed % Interviewed 145 77 53
Of the identified unregistered ultrasound providers, a total of 77 interviews could be completed across the state. As mentioned in the previous section, owing to the nature of the study, many of the unregistered providers were not willing to provide interviews. Following the pre-decided protocol mentioned in the previous section, interviews could be completed in about 53 percent of the cases. Further, the questions interviewers asked unregistered facilities were necessarily less detailed and somewhat different from the questions they asked registered providers owing to the delicate nature of this component. Some of the critical findings that emerged from this component are presented in the following section. It must be noted that in more than 70 percent of the cases the interview was conducted with the owner or manager of the lab and in the remaining cases with the doctor or technician in-charge of the facility.

Base – All unregistered ultrasound providers (N = 77)
Thus about 44 of the 77 facilities interviewed were diagnostic centres or laboratories while 30 of them were private nursing homes. It may, therefore, be presumed that multiple services are offered at least in the 39 percent where the facility is a nursing home. Therefore, in 30 cases the respondents reported that ultrasound facilities had been added subsequently and were not present at the inception. It was noted in the case of unregistered ultrasound providers, understandably perhaps, that many of the questions that were asked met with no response.
Table 16. Details of number of radiologists and technicians employed by facility
Number of radiologists Number of Technicians Base 77 77 1 40% 32% 2 3% 0% Unspecified 57% 68%
Thus, 57 percent of the respondents did not tell the interviewers the number of people who worked in the facility.
Table 17. Whether owner is key operating person in the facility

Further it was noted that while only in 44 percent of the cases the owner had even an MBBS qualification, the respondents also reported that in 49 percent of the cases the key operating person in the lab was also the owner. It was further noted using cross-tabulations that among the cases where the owner was identified as the key operating person in the facility, in 18% of the cases the owner did not possess a medical degree. Thus, out of the 38 facilities where the owner was reported 38 Mapping of Ultrasound Clinics and Assessment of Status of Implementation of PC & Pndt Act in Bihar
the key operating person in the facility, only 30 of these owners reportedly had an MBBS degree and the others were noted as having no medical qualification at all.This is a critical finding from the perspective of the implementation of the Act. An enquiry was made into the services offered by these facilities. The following chart presents the details of these services as reported by the unregistered clinics.

Base – All unregistered ultrasound providers (N = 77)
Thus, it can be seen that while 16 percent of the facilities offered gynaecological services and 18 percent even offered surgical services, the ultrasound facilities have not been registered with the appropriate authorities. Two of the providers reported that they do not offer ultrasound services, however in the context of the study, this denial may merit further scrutiny. Three percent of the facilities (2 providers) were also found to provide MTP services. When asked about registration under the MTP Act it was found that 1 of the respondents had not registered under the Act. While the other respondent reported registration, he could not produce the certificate for verification and therefore this can only be considered as a stated response. It must also be noted that the respondent who had not done so, did not provide a reason for not registering under the MTP Act. When an enquiry was made into whether the employees of these facilities also provided services elsewhere, 53 percent of the respondents could not report whether the doctors and technicians from their facility also provided services elsewhere. The most critical point to be noted is that when the respondents were asked whether they had ever applied for registration under the PCPNDT Act, no response was forthcoming. Thus none of the respondents provided a response to even basic queries regarding registration under the PCPNDT Act. It may be noted, therefore, that the interviews with unregistered providers despite the lack of responses, point to several lacunae – some obvious, others indicative and based on observation. Mapping Ultrasonography Facilities 39
As mentioned previously, the observation component was conducted in the unregistered facilities as well. Their findings are presented below:

It can be seen therefore that while some of the facilities do display some of the required material the proportion of non-compliance is very high and that a majority of the respondents do not comply with even one of the requirements. This proportion is also higher than in the case of the registered facilities. District-wise Distribution of Ultrasound Facilities

As can be seen the distribution is uneven and in some districts, predominantly Patna and its neighbours, have a higher concentration of facilities. The first column refers to the record of these facilities in the originally procured lists available with the DAA offices. As can be seen, 1,201 facilities were originally listed with the various district offices across the state while 129 facilities were newly identified during the mapping exercise. A total of 1,059 of the registered facilities were verified for their registration status of which 957 could be interviewed as previously mentioned. Further 145 facilities were noted as being unregistered of which 77 facilities could be interviewed. The registration status of a further 126 facilities could not be verified due to a lack of response from them and have been mentioned as unverified facilities. The details of each of these facilities have been provided in the Annexure III of the report. Implementation of Pcpndt Act 41
PART III IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PCPNDT ACT
Overview
In order to understand the extent of implementation of the PCPNDT Act in the state, interviews were conducted with the appropriate authorities and advisory committees in all the districts of the state. These interviews were semi-structured in nature and covered the structures and management systems of these bodies along with the extent of monitoring and supervision and the awareness levels in the district. Additionally, qualitative in-depth interviews were sought with stakeholders at the state level as mentioned in the Introduction section of this report. Attempts were made to cover the civil surgeon (one member appropriate authority in each district) and at least 2 members of the DAC in each district. Further, an attempt was also made to cover at least one NGO and one non- NGO member of the DAC. The following table presents the final status of the interviews that could be completed.
Table 19. Completed district level interviews with DAA and DAC
Attempted Completed Completed % Civil Surgeon (District Appropriate Authority) 38 30 79% District Advisory Committee 76 65 86% Total 114 95 83%
As can be seen, out of a total of 114 attempted interviews, 95 could be completed. In the other 19 cases the interviews could not be conducted mainly due to refusals on the part of the respondents. In other instances, the DACs itself were not formed such as in Jehanabad. In Kaimur, the interviewers were unable to procure details regarding the DAC from the appropriate authority of the district. This section will therefore present the findings of the interviews that could be completed with both the DAA and the DAC members. District Appropriate Authority
The first crucial piece of information that strikes when considering this component of the research is that the District Advisory Committees have not been created in every district of the state. Similarly, at the state level as well, the State Advisory Committee does not exist at present and although it was formulated in the past, it is non-functional as of date. The civil surgeons, or DAA, were therefore first questioned regarding the establishment of all the mechanisms required by the PCPNDT Act. 42 Mapping of Ultrasound Clinics and Assessment of Status of Implementation of PC & Pndt Act in Bihar
Subsequently, a more in-depth questioning was undertaken regarding their duties and activities during their tenure, and their awareness of issues within the district. This section of the report will present the data collected from the DAA interviews and the information received from the DAC will be presented in the subsequent section.
Structures and Management Systems
The DAA, in all the 30 districts that were covered in the interviews were able to inform as to when the DAC was constituted and it was noted that in more than 70 percent of the cases the DAC was first constituted more than 5 years ago and in about 29 percent of these cases the members have not been reappointed since. Thus of the 21 districts where 5 years have lapsed since the constitution of the DAC, reappointment has taken place in 15 districts while it remains to be done in 6 districts.

More than 5 years
Base – All DAA (N = 30)
When the DAA of the six districts were asked the reasons for not reconstituting the DAC, half of them said that it was not necessary to reconstitute. 1 DAA did not respond while another said that the current DAC has been performing very well and therefore they had not reconstituted the body. Positions in the DAC – Even within the DAC different positions are prescribed for individuals belonging to various disciplines such that each of these positions needs to be occupied separately. The following table presents the different types of positions and their current status in the 30 districts.
Table 20. Current status of DAC positions as informed by the DAA

Among the member positions prescribed for the DAC, it was found that all medical expert positions were filled in 97 percent of the cases (29 out of 30 districts, except in Jehanabad). However, this Implementation of Pcpndt Act 43
proportion declined when one considered the other positions. Thus, in 7 districts legal experts and the first social worker position were not filled. A member assigned to handle the department of information was available in 13 of the districts, and the other social worker positions were filled in 47 percent and 20 percent of the cases (14 and 6 districts), respectively. This was also noted during the fieldwork when the interviewers had difficulty in locating and contacting the members of the DAC. In 65 percent of the cases the DAA could not respond as to why the positions had not been filled whereas the remaining mentioned that the search for members was currently on. Trainings - The DAA in more than 50 percent of the cases mentioned that the DAC members had not been trained on the PCPNDT Act and their roles and duties. The following table provides details of the trainings conducted with different DAC members as reported by the DAA.
Table 21. Number of DAC members who have received trainings as per the DAA
Position Number of members trained (among positions filled) Medical expert (1) 14 (out of 29) Medical expert (2) 12 (out of 29) Medical expert (3) 14 (out of 29) Legal expert 10 (out of 23) Department of information and publicity 8 (out of 13) Social Worker (1) 9 (out of 23) Social Worker (2) 6 (out of 14) Social Worker (3) 2 (out of 6)
Thus, if one considers the overall situation, less than 50 percent of the total DAC members in the state have been trained in their duties as reported by the DAA. Even 60 percent (18) of the civil surgeons mentioned that they themselves had not had any form of training when they joined the position and 10 of them had not received any training even subsequently.
Application Process
The most critical function of the Appropriate Authority is to receive and process applications from ultrasound facilities for registrations. Based on the reported numbers, it appeared that in 27 percent of the cases (8 districts) no applications were received last year. On an average 4 (Arithmetic mean - 3.87) applications for registration were received in the last year by the DAA. However, there were also districts such as Motihari, where as many as 14 applications were received in one year, many of these (in Supaul 4 out of 10) applications were rejected and the applicants informed regarding the status of their applications. In each case it was reported by the DAA that less than 90 days were taken to process the application. The average time for completing the entire process from receipt of the application to informing the applicant of the final decision was reported to take an average of 49 (Arithmetic mean – 48.67) days.
Monitoring and Supervision
An equally critical responsibility of the DAA is to monitor the functioning of the registered ultrasound providers and to ensure that they adhere to the rules prescribed by the PCPNDT Act. The DAA has additionally been given the authority to penalise and initiate proceedings against those ultrasound providers who are found to be in violation of the laws. A measure of the levels of adherence in a particular district is the number of penalties that are imposed on the ultrasound providers within that 44 Mapping of Ultrasound Clinics and Assessment of Status of Implementation of PC & Pndt Act in Bihar
district. It cannot, however, be said whether the lack of penalty imposition is tantamount to lack of illegal activities. Nevertheless, it was reported that in 23 percent of the districts (7 districts) covered; registrations were suspended whereas at least one registration was cancelled in 17 percent of the districts (5 districts) in which the Appropriate Authority interviews were conducted. In other words, in more than three-fourths of the districts that were covered, no such action was taken. It may be remembered that during the interviews with registered ultrasound providers, as many as a third of them said no inspection visit had ever taken place in their facility. On the other hand, 90 percent of the Appropriate Authorities (27 districts) mentioned that they undertake monitoring visits on a regular basis. This must of course be understood in juxtaposition with the fact that monitoring visits are required in proportion with the number of registered facilities within any particular district.

The DAAs of Buxar and Motihari districts undertook 5 or more than 5 visits in the past month. In 15 percent of the cases it was reported that a separate team of inspectors undertook the visits. In 20 of the 27 districts it was reported that members of the DAA’s office undertook the visits and that the DAA was himself involved in them, either alone or along with other members of his/her office. The following chart presents the data regarding which particular aspects are checked for during the monitoring visits as reported by the DAA.

Thus, it was reported that various aspects are considered when undertaking monitoring visits. The key focus of the DAA, though, based on the reported numbers, is to verify the adherence to rules regarding the detection of the sex of the foetus. It was, however, reported only in 20 districts that records of all monitoring visits were maintained. The remaining district AA offices either do not maintain records of visits at all or maintain it for some of the visits. This raises an important need to clearly document the nature and purpose of the visits undertaken along with other details regarding their outcomes which can be an important recommendation. In 80 percent of the cases (21 out of 27 districts) the DAA reported that a checklist or questionnaire of some sort was used during these monitoring visits. It is important, however, that such practices are inculcated across all districts and more systematic processes developed for these activities for further streamlining the functions of the DAA. Interestingly however, 1 of the 3 DAAs who said that they did not undertake any visits said that he did not do so due to lack of adequate security. It is entirely possible that there is a fear of criminal elements and that this is preventing stricter action against those who break the law. The other 2 DAAs mentioned that they did not have time to undertake such visits and their other duties prevented them from doing so. The need for streamlining their functions and including process-driven systems is thus highlighted.
Cases of Non-compliance and Actions Taken
Given the findings on the monitoring practices of the DAAs, a series of questions regarding the level of compliance with the requirements of the PCPNDT Act within their district was put to them. It was found that 50 percent of the civil surgeons interviewed (15 out of 30) reported that clinics in the district did not submit records. The details of records clinics reportedly submitted in the districts are presented in the following table:
Table 23. Information on records submitted by the registered clinics to the DAA
Number of districts Percentage of districts Records reporting submission reporting submission A complete record of all patients 9 (out of 30) 30 Form D 1 (out of 30) 3 Form F 16 (out of 30) 53 Form G 3 (out of 30) 10 Consent letters of patients 3 (out of 30) 10 None 1 (out of 30) 3 Don’t know/Can’t say 4 (out of 30) 13
It can, thus, be seen that in case of most records less than a third of the districts report that the facilities submit these to the DAA office. Even in terms of the important Form F, only 16 out of 30 DAA spontaneously reported that the clinics in their district submit these records to them. Owing to the importance of Form F, interviewers then asked a direct question to the remaining 14 DAAs regarding whether facilities submitted Form F to their office. This was done in order to verify the information and ensure that the negative response in this case was not simply a function of limited spontaneous recall. Even in response to the direct question, 10 of these 14 DAAs confirmed that Form F was not submitted to them while the remaining chose not to respond to the question. 46 Mapping of Ultrasound Clinics and Assessment of Status of Implementation of PC & Pndt Act in Bihar
Further even in case of the submitted records, only about 37 percent of the respondents (11 out of 30) in the DAA category reported that they received records before the 5th of every month. And yet 6 out of 10 respondents did not respond when asked as to what action was taken in such cases. Further not a single case was reported in which any sentence was issued by the courts, whether in terms of a fine or licence cancellation or any other form. When asked regarding the presence of unregistered clinics in their districts, only the DAA of Siwan reported that they were indeed aware of such clinics and noted 4 such cases which had come to light in the district; the authority had already taken action in 2 cases. In contradiction to the previous findings of this section, 26 out of 30 DAAs said that there were no cases regarding the non- submission of records instituted their districts during their tenure. 27 out of 30 DAAs reported that there were no cases instituted regarding violation of advertisement norms for the ultrasound providers in their districts during their tenure. All 30 district officers also reported that there was no case of sex determination in their districts during their tenure. It is perhaps unsurprising therefore that in 23 out of 30 districts, no action against ultrasound providers for violation of any form was reported. Four DAAs were found to have issued summons and sealed clinics indulging in unlawful activities in the past year. Legal action was reported to have been taken in the districts of Nawada, Siwan and Gopalganj. Seven cases are currently pending in courts in Gopalganj and Patna, according to their respective DAAs, but no conviction has yet been made in any such cases.
Awareness regarding the PCPNDT Act
In the previous chapter, the awareness levels of ultrasound providers with respect to the PCPNDT Act were considered. It is also important to analyse the awareness of the authorities that have been appointed to enforce the Act. In this case, however, it must be noted that the awareness should be higher than in the case of the ultrasound providers.

As can be seen a majority of the respondents could only spontaneously recall the requirement that display of advertisements regarding sex determination was prohibited. Less than 10 percent could recall the maintenance of form G and submission of records while a third could spontaneously recall maintenance of Form F. While the recall improved significantly with aided responses, it must be noted that spontaneous recall can be considered an important factor in estimating the overall awareness of the respondents. In terms of most of the specific questions, however, a majority of the DAA members could identify the correct answer. However, there were some reported wrong answers for almost every question in this case. Further, as many as 40 percent of the respondents were unable to identify the cases in which tests which can also be used for sex determination were permitted. Thus while there is some level of awareness it is not yet comprehensive and it once again points to the need for greater awareness generation and training for the authorities. District Advisory Committee
As mentioned at the beginning of the chapter a total of 65 DAC members could be interviewed during the study. The interviews with the DAC members covered a range of topics on their own roles and duties as well as the general implementation and functioning of the PCPNDT Act in their district. The information collected from these interviews is briefly presented in this section of the report.
Constitution of DAC
Among the members of the DAC who are currently appointed in the districts, 48 percent (31 out of 65) were not aware about when the DAC was first established in their districts. Even among the 34 members of the various DACs who were aware that the DAC was first established in their districts, 20 members suggested that it was more than 5 years ago in their districts and 45 percent of them (9) said that a reappointment of members has since not taken place. It is, however, not entirely necessary for new members to know when the DAC was first established and therefore questions were put to them regarding the duration of their own membership. It was found that 16 out of the 65 members have been part of their respective DACs since 2007 or earlier (more than 5 years as on date of interviews). Surprisingly, 9 members could not tell us the duration of their own membership of the DAC. This indicates gaps in the constitution procedure of the DAC in a number of districts and in providing the necessary updates regarding the tenure of the members.
Training of DAC members 3 As noted in the DAA interviews, trainings for DAC members are not commonly held in most districts. 35
Chart 13. Information regarding whether members of DAC received any training as 62 provided by the DAA
Base – All DAC members (N = 65) 48 Mapping of Ultrasound Clinics and Assessment of Status of Implementation of PC & Pndt Act in Bihar
This piece of information was verified during the DAC interviews where more than 60 percent of the DAC members (40 out of 65) also corroborated the fact that they had not received any trainings despite more than 75 percent of the members having been a part of the DAC for longer than a year. Thus, only about a third of all interviewed DAC members reported that they had received any form of training on taking up their duties.
Meetings of the DAC
92 percent of the interviewed members of the DAC stated that meetings were regularly held for the DAC. However, 3 of the 65 interviewed members reported that a meeting of the DAC had never been held in their tenure and 2 members did not provide a reply to the question. The members who reported that meetings had been held during their tenure were asked to report the number of meetings that had been held in the previous year. The following table presents this data:
Table 24. Information regarding the number of DAC meetings in the previous year as reported by members of DACs
Number of meetings in Number of DAC members Percentage of DAC members previous year reporting reporting 1 9 (out of 60) 15 2 19 (out of 60) 32 3 8 (out of 60) 13 4 9 (out of 60) 15 5 6 (out of 60) 10 6 2 (out of 60) 3 7 2 (out of 60) 3 8 2 (out of 60) 3 10 2 (out of 60) 3 12 1 (out of 60) 2
As can be seen, a majority of members reported up to 5 meetings taking place in the previous year (2012). Nine members reported more than 5 meetings in the previous year with 1 member from Arrah district reporting that as many as 12 meetings of the DAC had taken place in the district in the previous year. Further, 51 members reported that they had attended each of the meetings held in the last year. Among the remaining 9 members, 7 had participated in some of the meetings in the previous year while 2 members from Saran did not respond to the question. However, only 29 of the 60 members reported that they had received the minutes of the meetings. When the members who had not attended some of the meetings were asked for the reasons for not attending, none of them chose to reply.
Role of DAC
The DAC members were further asked a series of questions regarding the implementation of the Act in the district and their own role as part of the same. This could be confirmed only by half the members of the DACs who were interviewed, the other choosing not to respond to the question. A majority of the respondents reported that the role of the DAC is purely advisory in the district. Nine members said that the DAC has no role at all in the scheme of things; this is an incorrect perception which needs to be rectified since they are to perform their duties as specifically prescribed under the Act.

Base – All DAC members (N = 65)
6 members believed that their role is the same as the DAA while another 5 members suggested that their role is to assist the DAA. This lack of clarity regarding their role in the implementation of the Act in the district is a matter for concern and can only be addressed through adequate trainings regarding the PCPNDT Act and their role as members of the DAC in its implementation in the district. A series of other questions related to registrations and other aspects of implementation in the district were put to DAC members in order to further understand their role and involvement in the activities of PCPNDT Act implementation. In some of the aspects it is the lack of responses that are sometimes more enlightening than actual responses received. Thus, for example, when asked about the time it takes to process applications for registrations, 30 out of 65 members were able to report that it takes less than 90 days, the other 35 members could not provide a response to the question. Further, while it is not required for DAC members to undertake monitoring visits, 35 of the 65 members reported that they do make such visits, on an average between one and two times a month. Of these, 28 members further reported that they used some form of questionnaire and almost all members reported that they also provide feedback to the DAA in some form. Five out of 65 DAC members further reported that cases of non-compliance had been detected in their districts and that action had been taken against the violating parties. These cases were reported to be of clinics operating without proper registration or being operated by non-medical professionals which is in-violation of the norms of the PCPNDT Act.
Awareness of DAC Members Regarding PCPNDT Act
A series of questions intended to gauge the awareness levels of the DAC members regarding the provisions of the PCPNDT Act were included in the DAC interviews as in the case of the other categories. The findings of the same are briefly presented here in this section. 50 Mapping of Ultrasound Clinics and Assessment of Status of Implementation of PC & Pndt Act in Bihar

It can be seen that the spontaneous recall of critical factors mentioned in the PCPNDT Act was lower in case of the DAC members than in case of DAAs. A majority of the respondents could not recall any of the provisions. This can be a cause for concern and it further highlights the need for trainings that the members should receive prior to taking up their duties. This need is more pronounced when one considers the other information derived from this section. Thus where 4 members did not know where the application for registrations is to be made, 47 members could not provide a response when asked about the cost of application. While these aspects do not necessarily fall within their scope of work, it forms some of the basic information with regard to the requirements of the PCPNDT Act and should therefore be known to these members. Similarly, 23 members could not respond to the question regarding the duration of validity of a registration. 15 out of 65 members believed that any medical doctor is permitted to provide ultrasound services. Further, 28 members did not report that it is mandatory for clinics to display the registration certificate while 24 members could not recall that clinics need to maintain Form .F Close to half of the respondents did not know the period after which records must be submitted to the AA or the conditions under which sex determination tests could be conducted. Thus it can be seen that the overall awareness of the DAC members is lower than DAA and there is a greater need for trainings in their case. District-wise Interviews
The following table presents the details of the district level interviews. As previously mentioned, interviews could not be completed with 8 of the DAAs due to refusal on their part. Further the DAC members could not be interviewed in some districts for various reasons such as lack of information regarding the DAC members and their contact details. In one particular case, the NGO-DAC members as listed in the DAA office were not aware that they were a member of the DAC and were in fact not involved in any work related to the PCPNDT Act.

Information from State level Interviews
As mentioned in the methodology section, in-depth interviews were sought at the state level with the Nodal Officer of the State Health Society, the state heads of IMA, FOGSI and members of the SAC. Currently, the SAC is yet to be reconstituted and there were no meetings held in the previous year. Hence interviews could not be conducted with members of the SAC. However, interviews were conducted with the other respondents. The main aim of these interviews was to obtain the views and suggestions of these senior members of the state and non-state mechanism regarding the implementation of the PCPNDT Act in Bihar. This section will briefly present the key findings and suggestions from these interviews: ~~The key question before the Nodal Officer of the State Health Society was regarding the administrative support and trainings of the district level officials. During the interview, it was indicated that workshops were regularly conducted over the past 3 years inviting all gynaecologists and radiologists, NGOs, legal professionals among others. The Principal Secretary held many meetings at the state level with professors of medical colleges and stakeholders. ~~Taking cognisance of the serious nature of the problems facing the state all civil-surgeons were asked to conduct mobilisation activities and other IC activities, conduct workshops at the district level ― sensitisation etc. ― with the funds that the state has already received. ~~The Nodal Officer recognised that reconstitution of the state advisory Committee is essential and that the process of identifying potential NGO members is going on. Implementation of Pcpndt Act 53
~~It was indicated that constant efforts along with DAAs have been ongoing in terms of workshops and monitoring effort and that while the budgetary and administrative support is considered sufficient so far, there is a need, according to the Nodal Officer, to redouble these efforts and build a more robust structure in the state with better collaboration between the districts and the state level offices. ~~The feedback from IMA and FOGSI was along similar lines and it was stated that while they are trying to generate as much awareness within their own medical fraternity they required greater state support since their role is limited to advocacy efforts. ~~Both–the IMA and FOGSI suggested that the awareness regarding the PCPNDT Act was limited within the medical fraternity and that greater awareness building was the need of the hour and the first step to prevention of non-compliance. There was also a need for greater collaboration between their organisations and the state mechanism in their view, the lack of which they recognised as the greatest impediment to a more robust change. 54 Mapping of Ultrasound Clinics and Assessment of Status of Implementation of PC & Pndt Act in Bihar Summary of Findings 55
PART IV SUMMARY OF FINDINGS
Understanding the Progress in Act Implementation in the State
The overarching objective of this study was to try and understand the extent of implementation of the PCPNDT Act in the state of Bihar and to identify any gaps. Broadly, it may be stated that the Act has been partially implemented in the state. This section will seek to summarise the findings presented in this report.
Status on the ground –
~~It is our understanding that more than 90 unregistered facilities are functioning in different parts of the state. Some districts like Darbhanga and Patna, the urban centres of the state, have a greater concentration of such clinics or facilities. Often it is noted that the set-up is not that of a clinic, but simply an ultrasound machine set up in a nondescript location that otherwise cannot be noticed. But the fact that these unregistered facilities could be located using snowballing means that they function with impunity and the general population around has knowledge of their existence. Thus, the first and most critical shortcoming in the implementation at present is the continued existence of these illegal facilities, which permit and promote illegal sex determination without being apprehended by the legal machinery. ~~Even among the registered clinics seemingly minor or major violations of the law do take place. In many of the clinics visited, as has been presented in the data above, record maintenance and displays were not entirely in accordance with the norms. Similarly, records submissions and reporting to the DAA in case of changes in machine status too is not followed with diligence. Thus, obtaining a registration can be considered only the first step. ~~7 percent of the machines or a total of 78 machines were reported as being mobile machines. However, a little more than half of these machines (44) were registered as mobile while the remainder (34) had been registered as static machines. At the same time, while responding to the question of where the machines are used, 92 percent (72) of the respondents reported that they used the machine in more than 1 district or region. ~~The awareness of the facility owners and managers regarding the Act is on the lower side. While they are broadly aware of what the Act is and possibly what it entails, a detailed awareness of the rules and regulations as prescribed by the Act is also necessary for them to perform the functions mandated by the Act. 56 Mapping of Ultrasound Clinics and Assessment of Status of Implementation of PC & Pndt Act in Bihar
~~It was understood during the in-depth interviews with the IMA functionaries at the state and district level that control over ultrasound machines in the state is still somewhat tenuous. Second- hand and in some cases brand new machines are sold to people in-violation of norms and such machines, especially the old ones that are discarded, are likely to end up on the black market from where anyone wishing to set up an unregistered ultrasound facility for the express purposes of illegal sex determination might purchase them.
The administrative status –
~~One of the key reasons that the implementation of the Act on the ground has only been partial is because the formation of the administrative structures has been uneven across the state. Thus, while some districts have fully functional DACs, some others have no DAC currently appointed while others still have DACs that are largely non-functional and have not been reconstituted since their inception. Such a situation is also noted at the state level where the SAC is no longer functional even though it was originally formed, but has not been reconstituted since. ~~Most of the DAA and DAC members who were interviewed mentioned the lack of any structured training when they first took up duties. This also reflected on their limited awareness of the key requirements of the Act. ~~Many of them also mentioned the lack of resources or other support that hampers their functioning. One of the AAs suggested lack of security, for example, as a reason for being unable to undertake inspection visits. Given their monitoring responsibilities it was suggested by the DAA that there might be a need for security which at present is not provided to them. ~~There is a need for greater inclusion for all stakeholders, especially civil society and non- governmental organisations in the implementation procedure to improve transparency and bring in greater accountability into the system. ~~It was also understood, based on the interviews, limited action is taken against those individuals who are found to violate the PCPNDT Act. Thus, such things as submission of records are not followed with punctuality and larger violations of the law such as the running of unregistered facilities takes place. Penalising violations is critical in the implementation of the law as such action can Act as a deterrent to future violations. Recommendations and Points of Action 57
PART V RECOMMENDATIONS AND POINTS OF ACTION
Based on the findings of this study discussed in the previous sections, some preliminary recommendations emerge that may be considered in order to better implement the PCPNDT Act in the state.
Recommendations for immediate actions
~~The first and most critical step at this point is the closure of all unregistered ultrasound facilities that have been identified and seizure of unregistered machines. Particular attention must be paid to unregistered facilities attached to larger hospitals including state-run hospitals where registrations have lapsed. ~~It is also recommended that those facilities, whose status could not be verified due to non- response, be visited and their registration status be determined and the necessary action taken in case of non-registration. ~~In order to prevent violations of the law, a more systematic monitoring framework needs to be established in all districts where pre-decided checklists are used to inspect specific aspects across all registered clinics to ensure compliance with the Act. ~~Some critical aspects that need to be regularly monitored are maintenance of records, especially Form F, adherence to display related norms and reporting of unused and unreported machines, all of which were noted during the course of the study. A show-cause notice needs be issued in these cases and charges filed against the violators in accordance with theAct.
Amendment with regard to regulation of portable Ultrasound equipment
G.S.R. 80(E), dated 07-02-2012 The use of portable machines is to be permitted only in the following conditions:
Portable machine being used within the premises s registered for providing bedside services to the patients As part of a mobile medical unit, offering a bouquet of other health and medical services The machine under no circumstances will be used for sex determination of the foetus, as mentioned under Section 6 of the said Act 58 Mapping of Ultrasound Clinics and Assessment of Status of Implementation of PC & Pndt Act in Bihar
~~It was found during the study that mobile machines are being used by clinics despite having registered them as static machines. As per a new amendment of the Act, mobile machines are not permitted except in the circumstances mentioned in the following box and therefore it is necessary that mobile machines found in-violation of these norms be confiscated. It is also important to take legal action against violators and ensure their punishment such that it acts as deterrent factor. ~~It is necessary to take stock of the bodies and mechanisms established under the Act, address gaps and ensure their correct and continued functioning in accordance with the Act.
Other Recommendations ~~During the course of the study, it has been noted that the awareness of the PCPNDT Act and its rules is limited not just among the ultrasound providers but also among the district level authorities. There is therefore a need to institute two things: First, a sensitisation programme on the Act is required among the general public and the service providers. While IEC campaigns are supposed to take place, perhaps these can be instituted at the state level rather than at the district level. This campaign must also continue on a sustained basis to have any lasting impact. This course of action was also suggested by the Bihar state IMA and their support can be sought in reaching out to the members of the medical fraternity. Simultaneously, it is necessary to institute regular training sessions for the AAs and the DAC members not just when they take up office but on a regular basis thereafter to ensure that they are not only well aware of the requirements of the law, but are also better equipped to undertake their duties. Currently, it is noted that many of the DAC members lack clarity regarding their role and this needs to be rectified in order to establish a robust implementation structure in the districts. The NGOs working in the domain of the PCPNDT Act should be involved in the process and their inputs and support should be sought in establishing the training processes. ~~It is critical to ensure that inspection and monitoring, especially in the urban centres which are known to have a greater concentration of ultrasound facilities, is increased. As was noted in the data, inspections are limited at present and there is no common structure across all districts that is implemented uniformly. The state authority therefore needs to mandate a structure and requirements for all inspection visits and this structure must be uniformly followed across all districts in the state. This structure should include time-based targets, uniform observation checklists, define the monitoring authority and protocol in reporting that follows the visits. ~~ If the state mandates structural and time-based requirements then it is also the state that must ensure that budgetary and other logistical support is provided to the district authorities for undertaking these visits and enforcing its decisions.
In conclusion, the declining child sex ratio calls for urgent action, one of which is an effective implementation of the PCPNDT Act. The study has pointed to various implementation and monitoring gaps in adhering to the provisions of the Act. Violations of the law in the form of unregistered ultrasound centres that are functioning with impunity signal the need for a swift administrative and policy response to tackle the situation.
