APPEAL

On the economic front, the GDP growth of our country has been testing new highs aided by better corporate performance,

burgeoning foreign reserves and peaking stock markets etc. However, the chilly westerlies have remained unstoppable –

farm sector and stagnant rural development to name a few. With farm sector catering for the livelihood of nearly 80% of

country’s population, dolorous state of agriculture has broken the rudders of scores of common men’s life boats. Add the

hike of fuel prices and its likely cascading inflationary impact on the price line – food and medicine prices, as far as we are

concerned, are in an upswing.

Now this altered pattern in prices has two direct and at the same time drastic impacts on this charitable institute as given below :

Number One – Due to the above sympathetic situation of poor community across India and as the treatment in other hospitals has kept on becoming expensive, this hospital is being visited by patients from the interiors of not only adjoining States such as U.P., Bihar, Himachal Pradesh, Haryana, Punjab but even from far off States – Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, West Bengal.

Number Two - The towering figures of rate of increase in patient population across all the departments is being translated into a huge increase in recurring costs, as the figures below illustrate.

	Salaries	Electricity	Medicine	Food	*Misc.()**
1998-99	33.39	4.36	22.28	17.92	2.32
2007-08	116.29	15.26	46.11	30.17	11.44
% of growth	248%	250%	107%	68%	450%
