Speaking to Medical Dialogues Team, Dr Sajyajit Kumar, Delhi state programme officer, PC-PNDTÂ said, " We observed that no/incomplete records were being submitted by many IVF centres in Delhi. We have therefore written to the centres asking them to maintain complete records in regards to the outcomes (Male/Female) of all the IVF procedures and submit the same along with the monthly reports, which are already being submitted to the State by the 5th of every month, failing which necessary action shall be initiated by the authorities against the said center."
