The study focused on the issues related to medical manpower (doctors) only. Methodology of data collection It was decided, in consultation with NHSRC and the officials of the State, to focus the study in districts with low composite (socio-economic) index. Five districts out of 23 districts with low composite index and one control district with high composite index were included in the study. The districts and the institutions (district hospital, Sub Divisional Hospital, Community Health Centres and Primary Health Centres) within it were selected using multi stage sampling technique. The investigators from the study team visited the districts and collected data from the institutions and interviewed the doctors using pre-designed and pre- tested proforma. Findings 1 Survey of the health facilities showed that physical facilities in most of the institutions e. g. 24- hour water supply, operation theatre, 24-hour power supply with generator/ inverter back up, ambulance and telephone facilities and computer were available in all the district hospitals and SDH with a few exceptions. 2. Bed strength in most institutions including district hospitals, SDH and CHCs was inadequate. However, all the PHCs had six beds as per the recommendations of GOI. 3. Equipment availability at the health facilities was assessed by noting the presence/ absence of operating tables, OT lights, delivery tables, Boyle’s apparatus, Sterilizers/ Autoclaves, and surgical equipments. All the District hospitals and most SDH were found to be well equipped

December 2016 Access of Muslims and Other Religious Minorities to Rights and Freedoms Bihar December 2016 i Executive Summary 1. This study aims to examine the access of religious minorities in the state of Bihar to minority rights - including to freedom of religion, life and security, and social, economic and cultural rights. The focus of the study is Muslims - by far the largest religious minority in Bihar, and India as a whole. We try to measure access to rights by mapping poor Muslims’ conditions as well as by examining the quality of state provisioning for them. This examination is based on (i) primary data on micro evidence on the condition of poor Muslims, collected from 5 sample sites of Muslim habitations in UP (Patna, Vaishali, Sitamarhi, Darbhanga and Madhubani districts) using household surveys (sample of 100 poor Muslim households at each site) and interviews and focus group discussions, as methods.
