From 5 months it has become more problem for MSM PLHAs as they feel stigmatised to share same DIC with the Non-PLHA MSMs hence they stopped coming to PLHA DIC. The funds allotted for such DIC, Clinic and Office rent under TI project has been already withdrawn and shown as used in the financial reports of the organisation by management.
