the punctuality of doctors and the staff, the lack of cleanliness, lack
of medicines, no ambulance facility, corruption, over charges, not
constructing hospitals or dispensaries at the proper places, the
dilapidated structures, not updated equipments and machineries, without
proper first aid facilities, Doctors and the staff being absent, people
who have been lost their faith in them, the staff being made in charge
of the centers, lack of medicines in sub centers, not getting proper
treatment at the emergency ward, and such type of feedback was really
saddening and shocking. Overall the primary health Centers have been
failed to provide the proper treatment expected by the people especially

the scrutiny. 71% of deliveries taking place in the hospitals but only
29% deliveries taking place with proper facilities and most of them done
