No. 3457-L. S.-G.R.
GOVERNMENT OF BIHAR AND ORISSA.
(MINISTRY OF LOCAL SELF-GOVERNMENT.)
RESOLUTION.
Dated Ranchi, the 3rd November 1933.
READ—
Triennial report on the working of the Ranchi Indian Mental
Hospital for the years 1930, 1931 and 1932
As during the last triennium the Indian Mental Hospital
at Ranchi continued to serve the provinces of Bengal and.
Bihar and Orissa. The accommodation of the hospital during
the triennium was the same as in the previous years and the cost
of maintenance was borne by the two provinces in the same
proportion as during the last triennium, viz., three-fourths by
Bengal and one-fourth by Bihar and Orissa, which is the ratio
in which beds are reserved for them in the hospital,
2. The hospital provides accommodation for 1,014 male and
272 female patients besides 50 emergency beds. While the
number of female patients was always less than the beds provided
for them the male section of the hospital continued to be
overcrowded and the 50 emergency beds sanctioned in 1929 were
in great demand throughout the period covered by the triennium
under review. Owing to the financial stringency of both the
provinces none of the additional buildings included in the scheme
of expansion of the hospital mentioned in the Government's
resolution on the last triennial report could be taken up. The
congestion in the institution was, however, less severe than
during the last triennium and this was due largely to the restric-
tions imposed upon Magisterial officers in the two provinces in
respect of admission of the class of incurable and harmless
patients who could be discharged to the care of heir friends and
relatives. Eighteen chronic and harmless patients were also
discharged from the hospital to the care of their friends and
relations traced out by the Magistrates of the districts to which
they belonged.
The average number of criminal insanes kept in the hospital
during the years 1930, 1931 and 1932 was 484, 467 and 468
2
respectively. More than 50 per cent of these criminal insanes
had been convicted for committing murders. Having regard to
the large percentage of criminal insanes with homicidal
tendencies the standard of efficiency maintained by the adminis-
tration with the present staff and limited accommodation is a
matter for congratulation. There was no case of suicide and
only one case of serious injury inflicted by a patient.
3. Government note with satisfaction the improvement in
the curative work of the hospital and the decrease in the death-
rate. The average daily strength of the hospital was 1258.13,
1259.41 and 1272.75 and the ratio per cent of cases cured to
the daily average strength was 4.69, 4.53 and 5.97 respectively
during the years 1930, 1931, 1932 while the percentage of death-
rate to daily average strength was 2.07, 2.30 and 1.65 respec-
tively, as against 3.30, 3.41 and 1.91 during the preceding three
years. Though the largest of its kind in India this hospital well
maintained its record of the lowest death-rate of all other Indian
Mental Hospitals. Some improvement in the number of pay-
ing patients treated in the hospital during the last three years
is also noticeable, it being 79, 86 and 83 as against 63, 67 and 60
treated during the previous triennium. While Government regret
that the scheme referred to in the last triennial resolution for
construction of paying patients' blocks could not materialize
owing to continued financial stringency and it was therefore
not found possible to provide more accommodation for the
treatment of non-criminal lunatics, it must be recognized that
it is not practicable for them to provide for treatment of all
mental defectives in state institutions and as in other more
advanced countries the public are expected to come to their
relief by opening Mental Homes. At the same time it is true
that the question has not become so urgent as it is in the West,
where the stress and strain of modern life are far more acute and
so cases of mental disorder more numerous. How far the
acceleration in the tempo of living has increased mental diseases
in this country it is difficult to say but so far as the census
figures go to show the ratio of insanes to total population in
England and Wales is 21.3 and 102 times greater than that of
Bihar and Orissa and Bengal respectively.
Treatment by Hydrotherapy was largely resorted to and as
many as 407 cases were given this treatment during the
triennium under review. The Superintendent reports that the
demand for such treatment was greater than what could be
provided for with the limited accommodation. Government
recognize the desirability of building a Hydrotherapy ward, but
the scheme will have to wait till funds become available.
3
Occupational therapy was, however, as usual the principal form
of treatment adopted and the work done in this department
varied from hard manual labour involved in smithy, carpentry
and gardening to fine arts of weaving, lace-making, knitting
and embroidery work. The institution was also well provided
with sports and amusements including a band and a cinema of
its own and it is pleasant to find that the Superintendent and the
staff spared no pains to keep the patients happy—a factor of
great importance in the treatment of mental disorders. Govern-
ment also note with interest that during the period under
review experiment was carried on in the treatment of mental
disorders with sulphur injections.
4. The total receipts of the hospital from all sources amounted
in round figures to Rs. 22 in 1930, Rs. 24 in 1931 and Rs. 25 in
1932 against Rs. 14, 18 and 20 during the last triennium. The
increase was due to better realization from paying patients and
larger sale proceeds from surplus of vegetables grown in the
hospital garden and from articles manufactured by patients in
occupational therapy departments. While there was increase in
the income the expenditure on management decreased from
Rs. 5,70 in 1930 and Rs. 5,17 in 1931 to Rs. 4,80 in 1932.
The decrease was mainly due to the general economic depression
which has resulted in fall in the prices of articles purchased by
the hospital and to economy followed in all its departments. For
the same reason the average annual cost per patient has also
steadily decreased.
5. Government are glad to record their sense of appre-
ciation of the valuable assistance rendered throughout by the
Managing Committee. They also wish to express their thanks
to the several distinguished officials and non-officials who visited
the institution and in some cases, have recorded their apprecia-
tion of the work of the institution in the visitors' book and
contributed to the Donation Fund which has afforded considerable
encouragement to those concerned with its management. Thanks
of Government are also due to Major Dhunjibhoy who continued
to administer the institution with considerable energy, confidence
and administrative ability.
