REPORT
ON THE
LUNATIC ASYLUMS
OF THE
CENTRAL PROVINCES
FOR THE
YEAR 1894.
NAGPUR:
PRINTED AT THE SECRETARIAT PRESS.
1895.
[ PRICE EIGHT ANNAS. ]
No. 2525.
Exctract from the Proceedings of the Chief Commissioner, Central Provinces,
in the General Department,—dated Nagpur, the 6th April 1895.
READ—
Letter No. 609—464, dated the 14th February 1894, from the Administrative Medical
Officer, Central Provinces, submitting the Annual Reports of the Nagpur and Jubbul-
pore Lunatic Asylums for the year 1894.
RESOLUTION.
The main points in the management of the Lunatic Asylums of the
Central Provinces in 1894 were the larger number of inmates and improved
financial results. Special attention has been devoted to the industries and the
accommodation in the Nagpur Asylum.
2. The inmates of the Nagpur Asylum rose from 154 at the beginning of
the year to 165 at the end of it. In Jubbulpore it fell from 150 to 149. The
daily average strength was almost exactly the same in Jubbulpore during the
year under report, viz., 150 ; in Nagpur it rose from 146 to 161. There was no
overcrowding in either asylum, though the number of lunatics in Jubbulpore
on one occasion touched the maximum—125.
3. In Nagpur the number of cures shown is the same as in the previous
year—7. In Jubbulpore it rose from 9 to 13. The percentage cured is, the
Chief Commissioner observes from Table I in the Report, considerably below
that of other asylums in India, and he would be glad if the Administrative
Medical Officer would consider whether any special reason can be found for this.
4. The year was not favourable as regards the health of the inmates.
In the Nagpur Asylum the admissions to hospital rose from 53 in 1893 to 194
in 1894, and in Jubbulpore from 94 to 122. An epidemic of influenza caused
108 admissions in Nagpur and 25 in Jubbulpore, while there were no sick
from this cause in the previous year. Fevers also increased from 13 to 37 in
Nagpur and 27 to 52 in Jubbulpore. There was no cholera. Deaths increased
from 7 to 13 in Nagpur and 11 to 15 in Jubbulpore—4 in the former and 3 in
the latter being due to influenza.
5. The average annual cost at Nagpur per head of the inmates was
Rs. 56-8-3 against Rs. 69-7-8 in the preceding year, or Rs. 12-15-5 less. At
Jubbulpore it was Rs. 60-1-0, which is practically the same as the year before.
The large decrease at Nagpur is due to savings under the head of " Diet,"
owing to an improved system of purchasing and storing food-grain. The
Chief Commissioner agrees with the Administrative Medical Officer that both
asylums are economically managed. Statement IX now enables a fairer
comparison to be made of the financial working of the two institutions.
Hitherto the Jubbulpore Asylum took credit for receipts for lunatics from
Central India, while the corresponding item on account of Berar was omitted
from the Nagpur accounts. This has now been included. Similarly, both
2
asylums have now omitted Public Works Department charges, while hitherto
Jubbulpore alone did so. They should, however, as noted by the Administra-
tive Medical Officer, be included in both accounts.
6. The net profits on account of Manufactures were Rs. 750 at Nagpur
and Rs. 1,106 at Jubbulpore, against Rs. 531 and Rs. 853 respectively in the
preceding year. Special attention has been given to the improvement of the
industries in the Nagpur Asylum. The manufacture of cloth has been extended,
and that of net money bags and coir mats introduced. The establishment of
a dairy farm has also been sanctioned, and is about to be undertaken, and the
Superintendent also proposes to start oil-pressing. In Jubbulpore the lunatics
cleared and brought under cultivation part of the land recently added to the
asylum premises. The information as to the industries in both asylums, and
the manner in which the lunatics are employed might, the Chief Commissioner
thinks, be given in fuller detail.
7. Both asylums were inspected by the Chief Commissioner during the
year. They also had the advantage of visits from the Surgeon-General with the
Government of India. The Boards of Visitors met regularly, and gave
useful help to the management. The Chief Commissioner is pleased to be
able to endorse the Administrative Medical Officer's commendation of the
care and ability with which both institutions have been managed, and the
special efforts made by Surgeon-Major Harris for the improvement of the
Nagpur Asylum. Both the Deputy Superintendents have continued to render
excellent service, Mr. Mohan Lal being specially noticed by the Administrative
Medical Officer. To Surgeon-Colonel Ross the Chief Commissioner is indebted
for the thorough control and searching criticism which have given rise to
many useful reforms.
ORDER.—Ordered, that a copy of this Resolution (with the usual number
of spare copies) be submitted to the Government of India in the Home
Department, and that a copy be forwarded to the Administrative Medical
Officer, Central Provinces, for information and guidance; also that it be
published in the Supplement to the Central Provinces Gazette, and that copies,
bound with the Report, be distributed as usual.
