The only small ambulance (Van) provided to the CHC about 11 years back could not get a registration number till today and it plied only on Chassis No. C-0616566 during last many years. The District Health authorities or BMO Kalakote never bothered to get this vehicle registered with the Transport authorities. This vehicle always remain out of order and people have to hire private vehicles for shifting their patients to the other places. The people alleged that this vehicle on earlier occasions was mostly being used for own purpose by the department.
