No. 5196.
FROM COLONEL G. F. A. HARRIS, M.D., I.M.S.,
Inspector- General of Civil Hospitals, Bengal,
To TEH SECRETARY TO THE GOVERNMENT OF BENGAL,
MUNICIPAL DEPARTMENT.
Dated Calcutta, the 31st March 1911.
SIR,
I HAVE the honour to submit the annual statistical returns of the
lunatic asylums in Bengal for the year 1910, with brief comments as follows:—
Statement I.
2. On the 1st January 1910 there were 908 lunatics in the asylums, 190
were admitted during the year (including 18 re-
admissions), while 94 were discharged and 61 died,
the number at the end of the year being 943 against 908 in 1909. 38.60 and
39 87 per cent., respectively, of these figures represent the criminal population
of the asylums.
3. Hitherto it has been stated that the accommodation at the Berhampore
Asylum is for 532 males and 122 females. This is not correct, because it
included the space occupied by keepers, the dispensary and the store-room
which should have been excluded. Excluding this the actual capacity is for
493 males and 127 females, total 620. The total daily average strength during
1910 was 651.34, and the greatest number under confinement in any one night
was 674, so that the asylum population was largely in excess of the capacity
which has been a matter of grave anxiety to the Superintendent and myself
throughout the year. The overcrowding has been chiefly on the male side
of the asylum and if it goes on increasing as it is doing, the consequences
must be serious. The suggestion to enlarge the Berhampore asylum was
negatived on the grounds that it would be economically inexpedient to do
so and the scheme for the establishment of a central lunatic asylum at Ranchi,
which had been in abeyance for want of funds, was reconsidered in the
light of a modified scheme at a smaller cost. This was decided upon and
construction work at Ranchi is to be taken in hand as soon as possible.
The small European Asylum at Bhawanipur was also overcrowded during
the year under report mainly in the pauper section. Some of the pauper
lunatics had consequently to be confined in the paying wards, and three were
transferred to Berhampore. There is a greater demand for accommodation at,
Bhowanipur than is available, and here also the question of providing increased
accommodation is a very pressing one. This matter is now under consideration.
At the Patna Lunatic Asylum also which is a very old and out-of-date institution,
there was overcrowding occasionally especially in the criminal ward, but it is
not so serious here as at Berhampore and Calcutta.
4. Admissions numbered 172 against 177 in the previous year. Patna had
8 less than in the previous year, for which no reason can be assigned. The
number received at Berhampore from Calcutta and the 24-Parganas showed a
decrease of 12 (non-criminals), the figures being 49 against 61 in 1909.
5. Eighteen lunatics were re-admitted against 19 in 1909. Four lunatics
(3 non criminals and 1 criminal) were re-admitted at Bhawanipur against nil in
the previous year. Of the 18, 10 were criminal lunatics, most of whom were,
B
( 5 )
maintained with good results. Prophylactics were issued to the lunatics in all
the asylums during the unhealthy seasons of the year. This had the effect of
reducing the number of fever cases. Amusements of various kinds were
provided to keep the lunatics cheerful and contented at a cost of Rs. 246-2 in
1910. Some of the well-conducted lunatics were allowed in charge of keepers
to go outside the asylum walls for walks or carriage drives.
The establishment without further delay of a central asylum at Ranchi
on a modified scale has already been mentioned.
It has also been decided to have in Calcutta even after the central
asylum at Ranchi has been built, a small asylum or ward for acute cases of
nervous breakdown amongst Europeans and Eurasians and for the teaching
of nervous and mental diseases to the students of the Medical College, Calcutta,
under the new University Regulations.
Tell tale time pieces were supplied to the Bhowanipur, Patna and Ber-
hampore asylums during the year under report and have been found to be
very useful.
The new manual of rules for the management of lunatic asylums in
Bengal which was approved by Government and brought into use during the
year has also been found to be most useful.
18. The following officers held charge of lunatic asylums during the
year under review :—
Bhowanipur.—Captain J. W. D. Megaw, I.M.S., throughout the year.
Patna —Major B. C. Oldham, I. M.S., from 1st January to 29th March, and
Lieutenant-Colonel C. E. Sunder, I.M.S., from 30th March to the end of the
year.Berhampore.— Major C. J. Robertson-Milne, I.M.S , throughout the year.
19. All performed their duties in a very satisfactory and creditable
manner and were ably and loyally assisted by the head working staffs. I have
up to the date of this report visited the lunatic asylums at Bhowanipur
and Patna, the former several times and have made myself fully conversant with
the working of the Berhampore Asylum in several personal interviews with
its Superintendent in Calcutta and I hope to visit it shortly, and also the sites
for the new European and Indian asylums at Ranchi.
I have the honour to be,
SIR,
Your most obedient servant,
G. F. A. HARRIS, M.D., COL., I.M.S.,
Inspector-General of Civil Hospitals, Bengal.
