AbstractThis performance audit report on functioning of Indian System of Medicines and Homeopathy in Tripura covering the period 1999-2004 revealed that lack of planning, poor infrastructure, shortage of staff, poor manpower management, absence of adequate support system and opening of dispensaries without any feasibility study making many of the dispensaries dysfunctional – all in combination had a deleterious effect on working of the systems of Ayurveda and Homoeopathy to cater to the needs of public health care in the State. Main audit findings are summarised below: 1. Dispensaries were opened without feasibility study. This resulted in non-functioning of 17 Homoeopathic dispensaries for want of patients and wasteful expenditure of Rs. 22.10 lakh. 2. Neither Medical Officers nor Pharmacists were provided in five Homoeopathic dispensaries. This made these five Homoeopathic dispensaries dysfunctional. 3. Bed capacity of the Homoeopathic Hospital at Agartala remained heavily under-utilised due to non-supply of meals to the patients, poor pathology and radiography services and even non-availability of ambulance. 4. An amount of Rupees eight lakh spent on a project for development and cultivation of medicinal plants at Kamalpur proved wasteful as the infrastructure created by July 1999 remained abandoned since then.
