By the end of this month, jail authorities in the state would be able to summon medical specialists from five-star, trust-run hospitals under the Charity Commission, to treat inmates. Officials from the Association of Hospitals last week held a meeting with the charity commissioner to pen down the protocols for the visits. Next week, a meeting will be organized with the jail authorities to finalise the requirements. Additional director general of prisons, BK Upadhyay, confirmed the development.
