Ujjain : Numerous private Clinics, Nursing Homes, Maternity Homes in the city are running without license or being registered at the office of Chief Medical and Health Officer (CMHO).

On the records only just about 300 medical establishments of the entire district are registered CMHO office. Whereas it is clearly mentioned in the Nursing Home Act that no person shall open, keep or carry on a nursing home or a clinical establishment without being registered itself at CMHO office. One of the sources on the condition of anonymity informed Free Press that several medical establishments for saving themselves from sharing the records of the patients and in case of maternity home about the number of delivered child, miscarriage do not opts for the registration. Several renowned Doctors of the city are running their clinic without acquiring the license from years.
