To
THE SECRETARY TO THE GOVERNMENT OF INDIA,
HOME DEPARTMENT.
Nagpur, the 11th April 1914.
SIR,
I am directed to submit, herewith, three copies of the Notes on the
Annual Statements of the Lunatic Asylum in the Central Provinces for
the year 1913, and to say that the work will be reviewed in due course
when the Triennial Report for the year ending 1914 is dealt with.
I have the honour to be,
Sir,
Your most obedient Servant,
J. T. MARTEN,
Second Secretary.
Govt. Press, Nagpur:—No. 259, Civil Sectt.—16-4-14–202.
BRIEF NOTES TO ACCOMPANY THE ANNUAL STATEMENTS
OF THE LUNATIC ASYLUM OF NAGPUR
FOR THE YEAR 1913.
Lieutenant-Colonel A. Buchanan, I. M. S., held charge of the Asylum
for the greater part of the year under report.
He made over charge to
Major P. F. Chapman, I. M. S., on the afternoon of the 4th October 1913.
STATEMENT I.
Admissions.
2. The year opened with 280 lunatics under confinement, viz., 219 males
and 61 females. There were 91 admissions including
2 readmissions (73 males and 18 females) against 74 in
1912.
Of the 91 admissions, 14 were criminal and the rest non-criminal lunatics.
The Nagpur District furnished the largest number (41) of the admissions. The
total number in the Asylum at the close of the year was 310, of which 80 are
criminal lunatics against 280 and 76 last year.
Discharges.
3. Forty-one lunatics were discharged against 51 in the previous year. 31
were discharged as cured, 8 improved and 2 discharged
as otherwise, against 44, 6 and 1 respectively in the past
year. Out of the 31 discharged as cured, 3 were females.
Sickness and mortality.
4. Ninty-two lunatics were admitted into the hospital (67 males and
25 females) ; of these 22 were discharged as cured, 50
transferred to the infirm gang and 20 died, leaving no
balance at the close of the year. Of the 20 deaths 3 were lunatics who were
admitted 20 days before their death in a dying condition. The deaths were from
dysentery (5), exhaustion due to acute mania (3), asphyxia due to epilepsy (2),
pulmonary tuberculosis (1), double pneumonia (1), diabetes (1), rheumatism (1),
secondary post-partem hæmorrhage (1), old age and general debility (1), and
anorexia due to acute mania and melancholia (4).
5. In the previous reports attention was drawn to the prevalence of intestinal
worms among the Asylum inmates. The stools of all the inmates were examined
twice during the year. The number of worms found among the male inmates
were 41 ankylostoma (in 19 patients), 5 trichocephalus (in 3 patients), and
6 cestodes in segments (in 6 patients). Among females none of these worms were
found. At the close of the year the number of lunatics remaining in infected
gangs were : ankylostoma 18, trichocephalus 32, ascaris 4, against 46, 39 and 35,
respectively, in the previous year.
No round worms were found amongst males, but among females 7 were found.
6. The number of multiple infection as compared with the past two years
was:—
In 1911 ... ... ...

The number of patients examined was 315 against 282 last year. The
percentage of ankylostoma infection has fallen from 16.31 to 5.71 and that of
trichocephalus from 13.90 to 10.16 during the past two years, which is satisfactory
2
Among the new admissions ankylostoma infection was found in 19 lunatics
received from Nagpur, Saugor, Akola, Gwalior, Raipur, Betul, Bilaspur,
Buldana and Hoshangabad. The percentage of infection in new admissions was
20.88 against 21.62 in the past year. Special treatment for intestinal parasitic
diseases, and the weekly administration of quinine to all the patients during the
rains and fortnightly in other seasons, was carried on as usual.
7. The ratio of deaths per cent of average strength amongst the inmates
of the Asylums in the various Provinces of India in 1913 was as follows : —
Burma ... ...
Bihar and Orissa ... ...
Punjab ... ...
Assam ... ...
Bengal ... ...
United Provinces ... ...
Bombay ... ...
Central Provinces and Berar ...
16.5
14.9
11.42
9.47
8.57
8.15

6.67
It is satisfactory to note that the Central Provinces can boast of the lowest
Asylum mortality in India.
STATEMENT II.
Criminal Lunatics.
8. The admissions were 14, or the same as last year. There were no
readmissions. Discharges were fewer by 6, the figures
being 4 against 10. There were 6 deaths against 8 in
the previous year. There are now 80 criminal lunatics in the Asylum. The
daily average number confined fell from 80.48 in 1912 to 77.54 in the year
under report.
STATEMENT III.
Religion, sex and residence.
STATEMENT IV.
Previous occupation.
STATEMENT V.
Age.
9. These do not call for any special comment.
STATEMENT VI.
Types of insanity.
10. As usual, mania under its various sub-heads was the common type of
insanity, of which 54 patients were admitted, or 59 per
cent of total admissions, against 42, or 57 per cent, in
1912. This type, however, is more tractable, and 22 patients recovered and
4 improved. Melancholia with 13 admissions or 14 per cent to total comes next
in numerical importance. The number of recoveries from this type was only 4.
Under idiocy there were 22 in the Asylum, and, as was to be expected, not a
single case of this type recovered.
STATEMENT VII.
Ætiological factors and as-
sociated conditions.
11. The principal predisposing and exciting causes
of those admitted were :—
Mental instability ... ...
Critical period ... ...
Toxic ... ...
No cause ascertained. History defective ...
Predisposing.

Exciting.

The rest were from different other groups. The difficulty in grouping the
cases pointed out last year still exists. It is found very difficult to assign the
causes, as in the majority of the cases the medical history sheets received with
the lunatics were very incomplete, and no attempts were made by confining
Magistrates to obtain the required information from the Police or from the
relatives of the lunatics.
Buildings.
12. The structural improvements to the existing buildings, costing
Rs. 54,945, proposed by the Official Visitors in 1911, and
sanctioned by the Local Administration at the beginning
of the year 1912, are approaching completion, and it is hoped that all the
improvements suggested will be completed before the next monsoon. The
improved condition of the buildings probably accounts largely for the marked
improvement in the health of the inmates.
3
STATEMENT VIII.
Finance.
13. The total amount spent for the upkeep of the Asylum was Rs. 84,975
against Rs. 58,544 in the previous year. The increase
is principally due to (1) structural improvements,
(2) higher rates paid on food-grains, sheep and cattle fodder, (3) purchase of
a sewing machine, iron receptacles and firewood, (4) increased water-rate on
account of water used for flushing wards, etc.
The average cost per lunatic was Rs. 229-0-8 against Rs. 162-9-11 in
1912. Excluding the Public Works Department charges, it was Rs. 133-12-8
against Rs. 138-3-10 in 1912. Excluding the receipts from paying patients,
which are credited to Government, the cost per head was Rs. 218-14-6 against
Rs. 148-12-5 in 1912. The amount realised from paying patients was
Rs. 3,759-13-11 against Rs. 4,984-14-6 in the previous year. The decrease is
due to the discharge of three well-to-do patients during the year.
STATEMENT IX.
Staff.
14. There has been no change in the establishment sanctioned, but a
scheme has recently been submitted by the Superin-
tendent for improving the pay and prospects of the
Asylum staff which is under consideration.
The Superintendent reports
favourably on the work done by his subordinate staff. The Deputy Superin-
tendent, Kashinath Gopal Paonaskar, has maintained his reputation of being
capable, intelligent, hardworking and tactful in dealing both with the staff and
lunatics.
STATEMENT X.
Manufactures, &c.
15. The manufacturing department yielded a net profit of Rs. 2,591
against Rs. 3,098 in the past year. The decrease is
due to 74 old and useless cattle having been auctioned
during the year, and thus reducing the outturn of milk in the dairy. 89.17 per
cent of the lunatics are employed on various industries in the Asylum.
General remarks.
16. The rules under the new Lunacy Act have
recently been published by the Local Administration.
