The MP, along with Vizag East MLA Velagapudi Ramakrishna Babu, inaugurated a newly established Thalassaemia Ward, Sadarem Centre, and other amenities developed in collaboration with Divis Laboratories within the VIMS premises. Speaking on the occasion, the MP emphasised that VIMS has ample space for future expansion.

Disability screening resumes across state after 8-month freeze

Vijayawada: Bringing long-awaited relief to thousands of physically challenged individuals, the state govt has decided to reopen online slots for disability screening under the Software for Assessment of Disabled for Access, Rehabilitation and Employment (SADAREM) from Monday. The screening process had been on hold for the past eight months under the previous regime, citing certificate verification concerns. Several thousands of physically disabled people are left in lurch due the delay in opening the slots for screening as they were unable to access any welfare benefits. The NDA govt briefly opened the window after coming into power and suspended it following objections from the senior officials. The finance department has also escalated a complaint that huge amount is going into the hands of ineligible people in the form of welfare pensions and other benefits due to the possession of certificates. Then, the state govt has decided to go for complete reverification of all the certificates and also disabilities by withholding the disbursement of pensions. In fact, family members of several people with more than 70-90 percent disability approached the local legislators and senior officials with a request to grant exemption from the reverification for such people on humanitarian grounds. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Преносими лазерни заваръчни пистолети, 50% отстъпка LYH Купете сега Undo However, they could do little as finance department is firm on revival of pensions only after completion of the reverification. Taking the demands from public representatives into consideration, the state govt finally directed the health department to resume screening of disabled people under Sadarem. The screening will be taken up two days a week in all designated hospitals across the state. The screening will continue for next three months.

One dead, over 150 fall ill after meal on Muharram in Saharanpur

Meerut: A 55-year-old man died while over 150 people, including women and children, fell ill due to suspected food poisoning after consuming food served as part of Muharram observances in the Nanauta area of Saharanpur, officials said on Sunday. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The incident followed Majlis gatherings held across the city on Saturday, after which locals served refreshments to participants. Police said several people began complaining of stomach pain and vomiting late on Saturday night. Many affected individuals were taken to the local community health centre and other private healthcare facilities. Shabi Haider, 55, a resident of Mohalla Shekhjadgan, was referred from CHC to the district hospital in a critical condition. However, he died while being transported to a higher medical centre. At Nanauta CHC, 66 individuals received treatment and showed signs of recovery, officials said. CHC in-charge Dr Pramod Kumar attributed the outbreak to the consumption of milk with ice or contaminated food. "Consuming stale and heavy meals during summer often leads to food poisoning. The affected people are receiving treatment and are stable," said Kumar. Saharanpur chief medical officer Dr Praveen Kumar said initial findings suggest milk, cold drinks, sherbet, or biryani could have triggered the food poisoning. "Over 150 individuals were affected. The food and safety department has collected samples, and the exact cause will be determined following a thorough investigation. Teams from the health department are conducting door-to-door visits in the affected areas, providing treatment and performing medical check-ups on individuals who fell ill. Most of them have been discharged from the hospital," he said.
