Sonologists Strike
In response to the call given by the IMA Head Quarters the
Sonology Clinic all over the Nagpur remained closed against the
draconian PCPNDT Act. 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.
