Telemedicine Growth in India

Telemedicine Growth in India 

Telemedicine is a general term that covers all of the ways you and your doctor can use technology to communicate without being in the same room. It includes phone calls, video chats, emails, and text messages. People also call it telehealth, digital medicine, e-health, or m-health (for “mobile”).

India as a country in recent times has seen important developments in the field of Telemedicine. 

It is worth mentioning here that 

National Health Authority (NHA) announced recently  the successful integration of eSanjeevani with its flagship scheme – Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM). This integration allows the existing users of eSanjeevani, the telemedicine service of Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW) to easily create their Ayushman Bharat Health Account (ABHA) and use it to link and manage their existing health records like prescriptions, lab reports, etc. The users would also be able to share their health records with doctors on eSanjeevani which will help in better clinical decision making and ensuring the continuum of care.

Speaking about the significance of this integration, Dr. R. S. Sharma, CEO, NHA said – “ABDM aims to build digital highways to bridge the gaps in existing digital health solutions and stakeholders in India. The integration of eSanjeevani with ABDM is one such example where the 22 crore ABHA holders can link and store their health records created via eSanjeevani directly in the health lockers of their choice. The users can also share their previously linked health records with the doctors on eSanjeevani making the entire consultation process paper-less.”

eSanjeevani service is available in two variants. The first one is eSanjeevani Ayushman Bharat-Health and Wellness Centre (AB-HWC) – the Doctor-to-Doctor telemedicine service through which the beneficiaries visiting a HWC can virtually connect to doctors/ specialists in the Hub that could be at tertiary healthcare facility/hospital/medical college. 

One hopes Telemedicine field in the country continues to grow.

Rekha Mody is a prominent women face of India and a well known social activist the founder of Stree Shakti – The Parallel Force. Her organization fights for ensuring women Empowerment,  especially the political empowerment in terms of reservations in Assemblies and parliament of country .

In an exclusive interview with News Kashmir,  she talks to Rameez Makhdoomi and Farzana Mumtaz. 

What is the main focus areas of your organization?

Our main focus of the organization  is equality for women and for that we work in three  areas .The first is visibility of  leadership of Women who can be Thinker,  Doctor , Writer,  etc. The second is issue of ageing women and the third is political empowerment.  Without political empowerment of women we can’t acheive desired human progress. When women is not empowered it makes both men and women also children unhappy. For society to progress in right direction women have to be politically empowered and we are fighting for this. 

Your organization   also fighting for women reservation in Assembly , a bit about that?

After the Panchayat reservation dimension in 1993 there were  issues . Prajapati and Bahu beti brigade like things but things are changing towards better and with time good leaders are coming and things are changing for better for women .

Is Patriachy losing its grip in Indian society ?

We have to acknowledge that we were not a patriarchal society if we go to Vedic period , women choose their life partner and women were educated and many other good  things  . But due to several factors the patriarchy crept in and many invasions lead to Augmentation of patriarchy in our society .

Is your organization also fighting on rising crimes like rapes against women ?

No we are not dealing on such aspects as there are many other organizations fighting on women safety,  our focus is mainly political empowerment of women. 

Do you believe that political reservation you are fighting in assemblies and parliament would be a reality one day?

I am 100 percent sure that it would be reality soon and when our government is talking of 100 trillion dollar economy it can’t happen unless both men and women contribute equally. 

In post pandemic what role of women do you see in social and political revival of the country ?

Everyone has to play his or her role in revival of economy and infrastructure in the country especially in the post pandemic times. During the hard times of Pandemic it was revealed to us we need more medical colleges in the country to combat pandemics and disasters. 

What is your take of women position  in corporate world?

In entire world majority of companies are not giving them due role. Sometimes women also don’t want distant transfers due to family issues that also hinders their progress. 

Do you believe that women are mostly remote controlled by men relatives in politics ?

No this is not the reality as women are smart and make excellent independent decisions often when in power .

Do you believe that women also aid patriarchy?

No it is just a small percentage of women that aid patriarchy  but overall I believe  majority humans are good .

Do you believe we need to believe that both men and women can be good as well as bad  human ?

Yes absolutely  there is certain degree of men in every women and certain degree of women in every man so both as humans can be good or ok or bad .

What is your message to women of India ?

In India the sacrifice is part of our value system and thus focus is women to be better mother and nurture her children as good humans . When we raise our children as good humans tendency towards evil phenomenon would be less .

Bloodbath

Bloodbath 

News Kashmir Exclusive 

The painful situation in Kashmir is back with innocent killings happening on regular instances now , which is causing anger and rage both in Jammu and Kashmir and the rest of country.  The return of bloodbath is a tragic news for one and all as past three decades violence,  terror and many other things have destroyed the peace and prosperity of Kashmir. 

Kulgam in South Kashmir and Chadoora in Central  Kashmir are seeing much tragic episodes .

On June 2, 2022 

 Bloodbath saw yet another ugly dimension when A bank manager from Rajasthan, posted at the Ellaquai Dehati Bank in the Valley, was shot dead by militants in south Kashmir’s Kulgam on Thursday morning, while  in the evening a non-local labourer was shot dead by terror elements  in Magraypora area of Budgam district in the evening.

These are not the lone episodes as before it series of targeted attacks have happened. Before these episodes, few days back 36-year-old Kashmiri Pandit teacher named Rajni Bala was shot and killed  in Jammu and Kashmir’s Kulgam district, sparking a wave of outrage by the Hindu community living in the valley. The KP community in J&K protested against the killing and demanded protection for them.

On May 12, Rahul Bhat, an employee of the revenue department in Budgam, sustained serious injuries after militants fired at him . He was rushed to a hospital in Srinagar where he died a little while later.

In other set of tragedy, The killing of Vijay Kumar, a bank employee, by terrorists on Thursday, the 12th of a civilian since March, triggered another round of exits of migrant Hindu and Kashmiri Pandit workers and their families from the Valley. The exodus has revived memories of the mass exodus of Kashmiri Pandits from the Valley between 1989 and 1995.

On the other hand, As targeted killing of civilians in the Kashmir Valley continued, Union Home Minister Amit Shah met National Security Adviser Ajit Doval and Secretary, Research and Analysis Wing (R&AW) Samant Goel and Special Director, Intelligence Bureau (IB) A.S Rajan on Thursday. The details of the meeting were not known.

The sane demand is that atmosphere of terror and fear in Kashmir has to end .

This bloodbath is certainly giving painful times reminder to one and all in Kashmir. The hopes are that this bloodshed will end soon  and Kashmir would witness new dawn of prosperity.

Girls should not be rendered as fragile flowers: Bilquis Mir 

Girls should not be rendered as fragile flowers: Bilquis Mir 
Bilquis Mir is a global sports sensation  from Kashmir , a global water sports star . She has her roots in Downtown Srinagar .Bilquis is the first water sports coach, globally  acclaimed Sports Judge from Kashmir  and the first Olympic-level women’s kayaking and canoeing player from the Kashmir region.
She is Director  J&K Water Sports .In an exclusive interview with News Kashmir, she talks to Rameez Makhdoomi and Farzana Mumtaz .
Tell us a bit about your journey and the hardships you faced?I started my sports career from 5th class and depicted interest and participated in Water sports especially Kyaking sport . The field of water sports is seen as men dominated and I took this challenge head on being a woman. Dawning a track suit and structure of this sport is challenging for girls.  I started my participation from 1998 in a tournament organized by Police Department.  I stood first but was beaten at home when I went with Trophy and rupees 15000 . They too were unaware  and thus acted harshly . I believe the struggle of girl starts from the door of the house.  My journey was like that because I was not having direction or having any role model thus convincing family became difficult. 

A bit about your sports achievements?I have played more than 20 Nationals and bagged more than  20  medals   . My highest achievement was participation in 2009 world cup held in Hungary , I was lone  girl from country . I made my way upto Semifinal. I was India team Chief Coach for 8 years and made transition as Judge in an international panel . I was Judge in the prestigious  Asian Games.I broke many a times during my journey but I didn’t felt defeated.  I have visited more than 25 countries in my sports journey. Me and my mother felt that had I got defeated it would have been defeat of all girls. The society cursed me a lot due to their unawareness.  I also fell into depression during the zenith of my career as I felt my achievements were not being recognized duly but my well wishers kept me motivated.  I believe the more negative approach you face it encourages you to excel further. The struggles make your life polished.  Here in Kashmir and also in many parts of the world pale of gloom descends when daughter is born and treated as liability.   The sons are treated as blessing . Why such cruel bais exists in the Society? Woman in our part of the world is neither given identity nor home. We need to invest in girls, don’t make girls the fragile flower but a tough human ready to face every struggle. 

Your take on rise in crime against women?Domestic violence in Kashmir is increasing and also in many parts of the world as right from her home girl is taught to be familiar with oppression and not raising voice.  This entails serious aftermath on them and as a result in laws often dominate them brutally .There are many sportspersons in both genders but very little have ambitions to become Judges. 
How did that transition happen?I had witnessed in the world cup from start to end and also in many events very rare women judges in panel.  When I was Judge in 18th Asian Games, I saw very few women judges and that was dream come true.  I qualified the world Judge exams of Kayaking and got second rank .
We talk of women Empowerment but there are very few women in decision making and this motivated me to be Judge. A bit about Kayaking Game that you have shined ?The Kayaking Game has its roots in Canada in 1924 and then later on  it became Olympic event in 1937. We people in Kashmir are blessed with scores of water bodies , we have both flat water and wild water . We in Kashmir can achieve zenith both in water and winter sports. Kyaking is becoming popular in Kashmir and world too .In month of June we are holding first ever rowing championship here and the Government is taking steps to promote it .We have 13 events in it like Canoe Sprint , Canoe polo , and Canoe slalom in wild waters.  We have dragon boat which is famous in Kerala.  I was more interested and shined in Canoe Sprint of 500 Meters as Single . 

What is future of water sports in Kashmir?I have a dream that we shine in world of water sports.  We need to make sports compulsory on school level. Sports as important as Math or English.  We can fight social menace like drug addiction  through water sports. I am sure in coming times we will have hundreds of Bilquis .Mobile addiction is dangerous as drug addiction and fit youth can be achieved only through sports.

Are schools approaching you for training ?
Yes we are training scores of school students in water sports and participation in sports these days generates innumerable jobs for our youth both in the Government and private sector.
Your inspiration?Initially I didn’t had many icons , but yes as I moved ahead Mangte Chungneijang Mary Kom became my icon as I came to know how struggles shaped her to be global icon .
Your message to women ?

My message to women is don’t get discouraged after failures.  A women should not feel ashamed when she cries or faces failures but she should get up after every cry or failure to conquer the challenges .

Food Security Importance

Food  Security  Importance 

News Kashmir Exclusive In the back drop of ragging pandemic Coronavirus since past three years and a recent devastating wars between Ukraine and Russia have brought to fore the importance of Food Security. The inflation of food items is proving the need to take the issue of food security seriously. Food security is the measure of the availability of food and individuals’ ability to access it. According to the United Nations’ Committee on World Food Security, food security is defined as meaning that all people, at all times, have physical, social, and economic access to sufficient, safe, and nutritious food that meets their food preferences and dietary needs for an active and healthy life.The availability of food irrespective of class, gender or region is another one. There is evidence of food security being a concern many thousands of years ago, with central authorities in ancient China and ancient Egypt being known to release food from storage in times of famine. At the 1974 World Food Conference, the term “food security” was defined with an emphasis on supply; food security is defined as the “availability at all times of adequate, nourishing, diverse, balanced and moderate world food supplies of basic foodstuffs to sustain a steady expansion of food consumption and to offset fluctuations in production and prices”.On the other hand,  According to UN-India, there are nearly 195 million undernourished people in India, which is a quarter of the world’s hunger burden. Also, roughly 43% of children in India are chronically undernourished. India ranks 71 out of 113 major countries in terms of food security index 2020.In an important development, India has expressed concern over global food insecurity and underlined need for collective work to alleviate suffering of most affected. Addressing a high-level ministerial meeting on Global Food Security Call to action in New York, Minister of state for External Affairs V Muraleedharan said that Covid-19 pandemic and the ongoing conflict between Russia-Ukraine have impacted the developing countries, with spiraling energy and commodity prices and disruption in global logistical supply chains.Mr. Muraleedharan pointed out the Global Report on Food Crises and said according to the 2022 report, 139 million people had suffered across the world from conflict-induced acute food insecurity.The need of the hour is that we in Jammu and Kashmir preserve the agricultural land and don’t let its further havoc to tackle the food security fears in coming times .

Progress of ISRO

Progress of ISRO

Without space programs, we wouldn’t have GPS, accurate weather prediction, solar cells, or the ultraviolet filters in sunglasses and cameras. There’s also medical research happening in space right now that could cure diseases and prolong human lives, and these experiments can’t be done on Earth.The Space Programme of India under ISRO is making right noise. 
Over 55 Start-ups have registered with the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), Department of Space, in just about two years since the Indian Space Department and the ISRO were opened to the private sector, on the personal intervention of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. In addition, 75 Students’ satellites are scheduled for launch this year to coincide with Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav, celebrating 75th year of India’s Independence.This was informed here today by Union Minister of State (Independent Charge) Science & Technology; Minister of State (Independent Charge) Earth Sciences; MoS PMO, Personnel, Public Grievances, Pensions, Atomic Energy and Space, Dr. Jitendra Singh while chairing the 4th joint meeting of all the Science Ministries and departments.The Minister said, this in itself is a great and a pathbreaking progress considering the fact that for all these years, the Department of Space and the ISRO were working without being accessible to others and over two years back, the announcement to open them to private players was hailed by the media as “Unlocking” of the Indian Space sector. This, he said, could be possible only because PM Modi has the courage and the conviction to take out of the box decisions in the interest of the nation and to break the obsolete taboos of the past.Dr Jitendra Singh further informed that out of 55 proposals, 29 are Satellite related, 10 for Space Applications and Products, 8 related to Launch Vehicle and 8 about Ground Systems and Research. He said, 9 proposals from the Start-ups are expected to be completed by 2022-23.

In recent years music industry of Kashmir has changed the scenario in Kashmiri Youth whether it’s Rap Music, Folk or Sufiyana . But when we see the quality music it’s not only the voice but the struggle and hard work of the audio engineer which they do while others enjoy just music.Various Kashmiri Artists got fame in the music industry by releasing various number of tracks which give a different sooth of music that give goosebumps.Arif Mir 23 , from North Kashmiri’s Bandipora district has been an audio engineer for a number of songs which were in trend. Started audio engineering  and fixing audio with his own songs when he was just 17.Trending songs like Lolan which became a sensational hit song in youth , Jingle, MBA,One side Up,One side Down and several other songs which were done by him as an audio engineer.You Tube who was his first guide for learning Audio Mixing helped him to make impossible an possible effort. AR Rehman  who is an Indian Film Composer ,record producer, song writer is always considered as an idol by him in this very field .”Since childhood I used listen songs on cassettes and  I developed an ear for sound and if I am a sound Technician is just because of Rehman Sir whom I always considered my Guru”. “Every time I used to hear the music from his production I went deep down in this ocean “.Not only here but the songs on which he has worked  were also released on big cast Zee Music,Azaadi Records and local platforms.Starting his career by famous song “lolan” which not only gave him fame in this industry but a name which took him more hundred steps as an audio engineer and a temporary studio which helped me to work on different tracks. In my studio the first hit record was the Down Town.I got requests to record their music when musicians actually heard the recordings, Arif said.Student of Cluster  University who is doing Bachelor in Computer Application(BCA)  and who already has done his schooling from his home town Hajin and later moved to Srinagar.Not only Audio Engineering Arif has been a Tabla Player and Piano. He never learned the duo .While talking to News Kashmir Magazine Arif said,“It’s my passion and love towards my work that’s keep me going , I wanted to get into music composition ,he explains”.For getting a government job  which is always on priority for a Kashmiri to earn a livelihood ,Arif said,”In Kashmir,people’s first priority is the running after Govrnment Jobs, which is totally insane and no one is willing to identify their creative side and try to make their livelihoods in other ways that too lavishly”.Initially Arif faced resentment which is very common here from the people around but Arif believed on himself that with passion  and hardwork , one can create  a space and earn for his livelihood.“When I first started doing audio engineering , some people told me that I was wasting my time but God had a better plan for me . BY doing this work , I am earning  a handsome amount . And I am pretty hopeful that the more time I devote to it , the more I will learn , he further added.Full support from his family in present is helping him to develop new learning skills to make himself betterwhich will further advance him in his career.He told to News Kashmir Magazine that ,”All I need to do now is invest time in learning new skills . I have worked very hard on these songs . It took me  weeks to complete the projects .

A work in audio engineering impacts each part of the music industry,from capturing live sound to mixing music recordings to managing the technical aspects of audio equipmet.“A music producer’s major duty is to provide artistic direction for a recording session , but an audio engineer’s role is substantially different . Audio Engineering can also be producer’s, but they must first grasp the principles of audio creation, he further told News Kashmir”.While concluding he said,”In every field,people are facing problems,and most of them give up early , which is not good. If people will give everything to their passion , they will get good results sooner or later.
