Deputy Chief Minister Rajendra Shukla said block-level primary and community health centres lack separate hearse vehicles, though 148 are available at district hospitals and medical colleges. Hearse support can be arranged from higher facilities. Transport Minister Udaypratap Singh clarified that sleeper coach buses aren’t a category under the MV Act; permits follow MP Motor Vehicle Rules 1994.
