AbstractNational Tuberculosis Control Programme (NTCP) introduced in Goa since 1963 is implemented as a 100 percent centrally sponsored scheme. The State had not spent Rs.66.34 lakh received as grants during 1996-97 to 2000-01. The targets prescribed were unrealistic and not based on survey/prevalence of disease. On an average about 70 beds per month in TB Hospital, Margao were utilized against availability of 160 bed strength during 1996-2001. The percentage of TB defaulter patients was 55 during 1996-2001 and infructuous expenditure on partial treatment of defaulters was Rs.3.82 crore (approx.). Evaluation of the programme was not carried out to ensure effective implementation. Audit also found that Revised NTCP was not implemented in the State of Goa.
