From June 18, this center was completely closed. The hospital in -charge also wrote letters to the operator to start the center, but had no effect. The situation is that for six years, childless couples are not getting the benefit of IVF facility. At this center, the cost of childbirth from the baby test tube was only 60 thousand rupees.

The hospital in -charge has sent a full report to the Director of Medical and Health Department and the Collector. He said that on the first floor of the hospital, the center has temporarily built rooms. There is also machinery. To run it, an MoU has been held up to 2027 between the government and Pratap IVF and the Fertility Center. In the event of not running the center, an exercise is being done to cancel the MoU.
