We all sonologists are against the sex determination and over a period of time have supported the cause, but during the recent 2-3 years the implementation of the act has been as per the whims and fancies of the government authorities. For simple clerical mistakes in filling the Form ‘F’, keeping any one of the column blank by oversight or unsigned form, the authorities started sealing the machines and registering criminal offence, which has got no relation to actual sex determination. The Act was designed to curb sex determination, however the authorities seem to be more interested in checking Form “F” rather than catching the real culprits. Our demand is there should be graded punishment for clerical mistakes like warning and monitory fine on repeated mistakes. There should not be any sealing of machines and no suspension of Maharashtra Medical Council Registration. As sex determination is social evil the patient and their relative should also be held equally responsible, and we demand strongest punishment to them. The memorandum of the above demand was handed over to Hon’ble Shri. Abhishek Krishna, District Collector, Nagpur. Dr. Ajay Kate, President, Dr. Sarita Ugemuge Hon. Secretary, IMA, Dr. Ashok Adhao, Patron IMA MS, Dr. Milind Naik, Dr. Anil Laddhad, Dr. Warsha Dhawale, Dr. Vaishali Khandait, Dr. Y.S.
