Whereas, it has been observed that many ambulances does not have

minimum facility to cater to the sick/injured/disabled patients and merely used as

a transport vehicle. This amounts to violation of the National Ambulance Code.

Also it would be detrimental if, they are allowed to ply on the road because many

deaths may be apparent during transport mainly for absence of facilities;

Now, therefore, I, Dr. Arun. T, I.A.S., District Magistrate hereby direct the

Departments concerned viz., Health and Transport to take necessary immediate

following actions to ensure the above services:

1. The Transport Department, Puducherry, to ensure fixing of GPS in all

ambulances (Private, Government and Aided), so that all the ambulances are equally

and adequately distributed throughout the District and the victim of accident if

happens, can be moved to the nearest Hospital without delay.

2. The Health Department to ensure availability of health infrastructure

viz., equipments, medicines, etc., in all the ambulances (Private, Government and

Aided), so that the persons would be having adequate care in the ambulance

thereby reducing the mortality of the road accident.

At Puducherry, dated on this 10th day of October 2019.

Dr. ARUN. T, I.A.S.,

District Collector-cum-District Magistrate.
