Leprosy is a serious problem in many states of India: Dr. Pankaj.

Senior journalist.

New Delhi : Leprosy still remains a serious problem in many states of India, said

Sr.dermatologist Dr. Pritam Pankaj, here today. Dr. Pankaj said this during an interview. The National Leprosy Eradication Program has had a great impact on the prevention of this disease, but in some areas of Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, West Bengal, Odisha, Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, Leprosy has not been completely eradicated. Migrationism is the main reason for the spread of this disease, he said.

Dr. Pankaj, a resident of Saharsa district of Bihar, said that earlier leprosy patients had to take medicine throughout their life. After that, medicine was prescribed for two years. Now by taking medicine regularly for one year, one can be free from this disease.

Dr. Pankaj said that there are five types of leprosy. Generally, nerves are affected in this disease. Due to this, disability can also occur. When the bacteria of leprosy reaches the respiratory tract, then people come in contact with such people. This disease spreads through visitors. In other situations, this disease does not spread through contact with each other.

He said that sometimes it has also been seen that even after taking the medicine for the prescribed period, the disease is not completely cured. Then the patients approach private doctors instead of government treatment. But its medicine is available in the private sector. Due to it not being easily available, they have to face difficulties. However, at present, one tablet of Rifamshil is capable of eliminating 99 percent of the bacteria causing leprosy, which is given to the patient once a month during the treatment.

In response to another question, Dr. Pankaj, an expert in laser technology, said that blemishes, spots, wrinkles, unwanted hair etc. can be removed from the face with this technology. Earlier, the facility of this technology was not easy in the country, but now it It is convenient. Especially in this era of beautification, it has become quite relevant.

When asked about the increasing problem of itching and red spots on the body during the winter season, Dr. Pankaj said that such complaints come in the winter season. To prevent this, people should take measures to avoid cold. This also gets cured on its own. Despite this, if there is any special problem, then medicine should be taken under the supervision of doctors. Those who have had such a problem once, may face such problem in the next winter season too. L.S.

No major announcement for the real estate sector, expectations from the budget remained unfulfilled

02-Feb-2024 416

Budget 2024: The real estate sector was hopeful that they might get some big support from the government in the interim budget coming before the elections. But Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman kept this interim budget limited and avoided making big promises before the elections. The real estate sector has also not got anything special from this scheme. The sector's expectations from the budget remain unfulfilled. However, the Finance Minister made some announcements which will maintain the momentum of the real estate sector.

Real estate sector will grow even in small cities

Enrock Group Chairman Anuj Puri said that as per estimates, no major announcement was made in the interim Budget 2024. But, in the budget there has been talk of focusing on infrastructure and connectivity. This will lead to real estate development in big cities as well as Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities.

These announcements of the Finance Minister will be beneficial

The target of 3 crore houses was achieved in PM Awas Yojana (Rural). 2 crore more houses will be built in the next 5 years.

The government will start a scheme to help middle class people living in rented houses, slums, chawls and illegal colonies to buy or build houses.

Capital expenditure for infrastructure will be increased by 11.1 percent to Rs 11,11,111 lakh crore, which will be 3.4 percent of GDP. This will open the possibility of real estate development.

Transit oriented development will increase the demand for houses in cities. Also, prices may increase. It will be beneficial in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities also.

The development of tourist centers will increase the demand for hotels and restaurants. Long term loans will be given to states to increase tourism.

Extending the tax benefit to startups for one more year may increase the demand for offices.

The hope of real estate sector remained unfulfilled here

The real estate sector has been demanding to be declared an industry for years. With this one can easily avail the benefits of loan and tax exemption. But, there was disappointment on this issue in the interim budget.

Tax benefits are also not available for home buyers. If tax exemption on home loans had increased, the real estate sector would have benefited greatly.

If the budget for PM Awas Yojana (Urban) increases, the demand in the real estate sector will increase. But, no such announcement was made in the interim budget.

The interim budget has ignored the demand of the real estate sector. Now the entire hope of the sector is pinned on the full budget coming in July.

There is disappointment among home buyers due to no announcement regarding tax exemption on home loan interest.

Good impact of budget will be visible in equity market

Navneet Munot, MD and CEO of HDFC Asset Management Company Limited, said that the budget has talked about the poor, youth, Annadata and women. Despite global challenges, the condition of the economy remains good. By providing adequate money for infrastructure, the Finance Minister has given full opportunity to the economy to move forward. A good impact of the budget will be visible in the equity market.

Pariksha Pe Charcha 2024: How to reduce exam pressure? PM Modi told this special formula

29-Jan-2024 589

Pariksha Pe Charcha 2024 By PM Modi: ‘Pariksha Pe Charcha’ program has started. PM Modi is answering the questions of the students. Meanwhile, the program itself started with questions on handling exam pressure. From parents to teachers and children talked to the PM on this issue. In response, the Prime Minister gave tips to handle exam pressure. Let us know what tips the PM gave to handle exam pressure.

prepare yourself mentally

While talking about this, the PM first told the types of pressure and he started with the advice that, first of all, prepare yourself mentally for any type of pressure. When we prepare ourselves mentally, we do not get worried as much.

Mention types of pressure

Meanwhile, the PM explained the types of pressure. The first pressure is that which we create for ourselves, like we have to study so much today, we have to finish this much course by this day, we have to wake up at this time. When we are not able to meet such targets, we get upset. The solution to this is to make small goals which you can complete. If you don't succeed, don't worry and start again.

The second pressure is that which is created by parents, family or elder brothers and sisters. Repeatedly interrupting children, comparing them with others, taunting them. When mother becomes silent, father starts scolding. Overall, this commentary does not stop in the house. PM Modi requested the parents to avoid such behaviour. Provide a good positive environment to children and do not compare them with any other child nor ask them to study day and night.

lack of understanding

The third and last pressure is lack of understanding. That is, such pressures are imaginary. There is no truth in these and we just remain afraid the whole time. When the opportunity comes, we realize that there was nothing to be afraid of, hence avoid such pressure. Without pressure you will be able to do well in examinations.

In Judge Vs Judge, Supreme Court Stays Calcutta High Court Proceedings

27-Jan-2024 484

New Delhi: Supreme Court today stayed Calcutta High Court judge Abhijit Gangopadhyay's order seeking a CBI probe into medical admissions in Bengal. The matter is about alleged irregularities in the issuance of reserved category certificates and admission of MBBS candidates in state-run medical colleges and hospitals in West Bengal.

In an unprecedented instance, Justice Abhijit Gangopadhyay accused his colleague, Justice Soumen Sen who presided over a division bench that stayed a single-judge order for a CBI probe into medical admission irregularities, of working for a political party.

A five-judge constitution bench comprising CJI DY Chandrachud and justices Sanjiv Khanna, BR Gavai, Surya Kant and Aniruddha Bose heard the matter today. The bench issued a notice to the West Bengal government and the original petitioner in the case.

It also stayed the orders passed by the single-judge bench and the division bench in the matter.

"We will take this up on Monday, took this up now to pass this order. We have taken charge now," the bench said.

A single-judge bench of Justice Abhijit Gangopadhyay on Thursday held that the order passed by the division bench of Justices Soumen Sen and Uday Kumar as wholly illegal and has to be ignored.

Initially, the single bench had directed a CBI investigation saying it had no faith in the state police on a plea filed by MBBS candidate Itisha Soren alleging irregularities in the admissions of candidates in medical colleges and hospitals under the reservation category.

RJD, Congress In Huddle Amid Talks Of Nitish Kumar's Switch

27-Jan-2024 420

New Delhi: Nitish Kumar will likely take oath as Bihar Chief Minister again tomorrow, a record ninth time, supported by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) - mirroring a familiar script from the 2020 elections. The political churn has triggered a flurry of activities, with large-scale transfers of officers adding to the suspense. Reports of an imminent change in government are rife, casting a shadow over the current 'Mahagathbandhan' ruling coalition.

The BJP has convened a meeting of its MPs and MLAs today, ostensibly to strategise for the upcoming Lok Sabha polls. State unit chief Samrat Choudhary downplayed speculations of a renewed alliance with Nitish Kumar, but BJP leaders dropped significant hints about behind-the-scenes discussions.

According to sources, Nitish Kumar has convened a session of the legislative party tomorrow. Sources have said that extensive relocations of district magistrates are underway in Bihar, coinciding with rumors of an imminent shift in the government.

Nitish Kumar's solo appearance at the Republic Day tea at Raj Bhavan yesterday, without his deputy Tejashwi Yadav by his side, indicated a simmering discord between Janata Dal (United) and the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD), who have called for a meeting of their legislators.

Amid this political upheaval, Congress, Nitish Kumar's Janata Dal (United)'s partner in the opposition INDIA bloc, has also called a meeting in Purnea, while denying any connection to the evolving political scenario. The Congress plans to discuss preparations for Rahul Gandhi's 'Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra,' set to enter Bihar on Monday, with public meetings scheduled in Kishanganj, Purnea, and Katihar.

While the immediate focus appears to be on the Lok Sabha elections, sources indicate that the Bihar Assembly won't be dissolved just yet. Both the BJP and JD(U) are engaging with their respective MPs and MLAs to solidify their strategies, setting the stage for a comprehensive realignment in Bihar's political landscape.

However, the return of Nitish Kumar to the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) is not without its complexities. Sources have told NDTV that the intricate game plan includes the nomination of an Assembly Speaker and a cabinet reshuffle.

Nitish Kumar's former Deputy Chief Minister and BJP leader Sushil Kumar Modi's cryptic statement, "No door is closed in politics. The door can be opened if needed," has added another layer of suspense to the development.

Listen to the latest songs, only on JioSaavn.com

Former Chief Minister Jitan Ram Manjhi and his Hindustan Awam Morcha are also players in this political chessboard, courted by the BJP to secure a strategic alliance.

Nitish Kumar's political journey, once synonymous with stability and development, has become a tale of flip-flops and realignments. From the acclaimed 'Sushashan Babu' to the enigmatic "Paltu Kumar," his trajectory reflects the evolving dynamics of Bihar's politics.

Mahua Moitra, Expelled From Lok Sabha Last Month, Vacates Delhi Bungalow

19-Jan-2024 284

New Delhi: Trinamool Congress leader Mahua Moitra, who was expelled from Lok Sabha last month for unethical conduct, will vacate her government bungalow today. The Bengal MP had received an eviction notice earlier this week ordering her to vacate the bungalow immediately.

"House number 9B Telegraph Lane occupied by Ms. Mahua Moitra was fully vacated by 10 am this morning 19/1/2023 and possession handed over by her lawyers to Directorate of Estates who are inspecting and engaged in due process. Premises were vacated before authorities arrived and no eviction took place at all," Ms Moitra's lawyers told the media.

In a strongly-worded eviction notice, the Centre asked Ms Moitra to immediately vacate the bungalow. The notice by the Directorate of Estates, which manages government properties, stated that if Ms Moitra does not vacate the premises on her own, she and any other occupant "are liable to be evicted from the said premises, if need be, by the use of such force as may be necessary".

The government in its notice said Ms Moitra had been "allowed sufficient opportunity" but she failed to prove that she is not an unauthorised occupant.

On Thursday, Ms Moitra failed to get any relief from the Delhi High Court which refused to stay the eviction order and asked her to vacate the government bungalow.

Justice Girish Kathpalia said no specific rule has been brought before the court which dealt with the eviction of MPs from government accommodation after they cease to be lawmakers.

Mahua Moitra was held guilty of "unethical conduct" and expelled from Lok Sabha on December 8 last year for allegedly accepting gifts from businessman Darshan Hiranandani and sharing her user ID and password of the Parliament website with him.
