Detailed Solution

The most cases of doctor absenteeism take place in Uttar Pradesh.
Absenteeism refers to the practice of absence from work without any reasonable cause. Doctors posted in rural areas of Uttar Pradesh resided in the town and visited the villages only twice or thrice a month. They were involved in private practice in the cities that generated huge revenue. The residents of the villages had to travel to town for a checkup and spent a vast amount of money on it. So the political reforms were proposed in this scenario:
1)      Compulsory residence of the doctors in the villages.
2)      Surprise raids by the police and district authorities.
3)      Annual report by village panchayat of the doctor.
