The Dehradun chief development officer (CDO) Nitika Khandelwal instructed the officials and the members of the advisory committee that work under the Pre-Conception and Pre-Natal Diagnostic Techniques (PCPNDT) Act to take action against the ultrasound centres and machines operating illegally in the district.
In a meeting held here on Friday, Khandelwal said that to ensure the on-time registration of ultrasound centres and the clinics with ultrasound machines, the operators must apply for renewal of registration before its expiration date. Those operators who fail to apply for renewal of registration on time will be served a show-cause notice, she said.
The CDO directed the members of the committee to go for surprise visits in hospitals and ultrasound centres to ensure that the law is not being violated in such places. Apart from the CDO, the nodal officer of PCPNDT, Dr Anup Dimri and district coordinator of PCPNDT, Mamata Bahuguna were also present in the meeting besides several doctors of the district.
