The testing will be done every Monday with one patient as per the present capacity. The testing capacity might be increased with time.
Dr Naveen Kumar, Nodal officer for Narco test at Dr Baba Saheb Ambedkar Hospital told ANI, "Process of narco analysis involves giving an anaesthetic injection to the subject and put the subject in a trance like state. It is assumed that in this condition when any question is asked by the integrator, the subject is not able to lie.
