Samosa, jalebi join cig ranks, statutory warning to roll soon
Nagpur: Move over cigarette packs with scary photos. Nagpur's beloved samosas, jalebis, and chai biscuits might soon carry their own version of health warnings — at least on the walls near where you buy them. In a move that signals the start of what doctors long predicted — that sugary and oily foods will eventually carry health warnings just like tobacco — the ministry of health and family welfare has ordered all central institutions, including AIIMS Nagpur, to install 'Oil and Sugar Boards'. These are brightly coloured posters revealing just how much hidden fat and sugar lurk in everyday snacks. Officials at AIIMS Nagpur confirmed they have received the circular and are preparing to roll out these boards across cafeterias and public spaces. "It's the beginning of food labelling becoming as serious as cigarette warnings," said Dr Amar Amale, president of the Nagpur chapter of the Cardiologic Society of India. "We've been saying for years that sugar and trans fats are the new tobacco. People deserve to know what they're eating. " The govt letter points to alarming numbers: over 44.9 crore Indians could be overweight or obese by 2050, making India the world's second-largest hub of obesity. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Cách giao dịch ETH/USD mà không cần nắm giữ Ether IC Markets Tìm hiểu thêm Undo In cities, already one in five adults is overweight. The rising tide of childhood obesity, fuelled by poor diets and sedentary lifestyles, adds to the worry. The initiative, officials say, is part of the fight against non-communicable diseases like diabetes, hypertension, and heart disease — many of which have strong links to excess sugar and oil in the diet. The boards, once installed, will act like silent but stern sentinels in central offices and institutions — reminding people that the innocent-looking laddoo could be loaded with enough sugar to sabotage your health goals. "This is not about banning food," said Dr Sunil Gupta, senior diabetologist. "But if people knew that one gulab jamun might contain five teaspoons of sugar, they might think twice before going for seconds." The move echoes Prime Minister Narendra Modi's 'Fit India' pitch, including his call for a 10% cut in oil use. Now, Nagpur is gearing up to put that message front and centre — even if it means some awkward stares at the office snack counter. So, the next time you reach for that samosa in a govt canteen, don't be surprised if a colourful board nearby politely whispers: "Eat wisely. Your future self will thank you."

CWC to govt: Establish care, support centre for pregnant minor girls
Mysuru: The Child Welfare Committee (CWC) in Mysuru has appealed to the state govt to establish a dedicated care and support centre for minor girls who become pregnant or mothers, addressing a critical gap in the welfare system. In a letter to the principal secretary of the department of women and child welfare, the CWC highlighted the increasing challenges faced by minor mothers and pregnant girls, who are currently rehabilitated in govt children's homes for girls due to the absence of specialised facilities. Meanwhile, activists urged the state govt to form a policy for the care and a support system for these minor pregnant women and new mothers along with their children. CWC Mysuru reports that the city sees 3-4 cases of minor pregnancies each month, driven by rising child marriages and Pocso (Protection of Children from Sexual Offences) cases. These minors, along with their children, require sensitive, specialised care that the existing children's homes are not equipped to provide. "It is not legally appropriate to house minor mothers and their infants in children's homes for girls," stated CWC member Mahadeva Kote. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like American Investor Warren Buffett Recommends: 5 Books For Turning Your Life Around Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo "These girls need tailored medical, psychological, and legal support to navigate their unique circumstances." "The needs of minor mothers and their children are distinct and complex," he emphasised. "A dedicated facility in Mysuru would ensure proper rehabilitation, emotional support, and a secure future for both mother and child," he said. An activist who wished not to be named due to the sensitivity of the matter underscored the urgency of the issue, noting that the absence of a clear policy leaves these girls in limbo. "This is a highly sensitive matter, and the govt must act swiftly to formulate a dedicated welfare policy," she urged. The lack of a dedicated centre leaves minor mothers and pregnant girls vulnerable, often without adequate counselling, healthcare, or legal guidance. In many cases, these girls are abandoned by their families, exacerbating their plight, she said.

Elderly woman dies, another critical after consuming poisonous mushrooms; medical help delayed due to road blockade
Bageshwar: A woman died and another remains in critical condition after consuming poisonous wild mushrooms in the remote Kunwari village in Kapkot block of Uttarakhand's Bageshwar district on Sunday afternoon. Rescue efforts were severely hampered by continuous landslides and blocked roads. Dhanuli Devi, 65, and her daughter-in-law Kavita Devi, 27, found the mushrooms while working in their agricultural fields, and cooked them for lunch, believing them to be safe for consumption. Both women subsequently developed symptoms of severe poisoning. Dhanuli Devi passed away shortly afterward, while Kavita's condition deteriorated rapidly. Villagers initially attempted to treat Kavita using traditional remedies and herbs, but without proper medical attention, her condition remains precarious. "The road has been closed for days due to landslides in the Ambua stream area," said Guddu Danu, a resident. "If it had been open, Dhanuli could have been saved. Ambulances can't reach us, and it's too dangerous to carry the sick on foot."Persistent rainfall and landslides have rendered the five-kilometre road connecting the village to the main thoroughfare impassable, blocking any vehicular movement and impeding rescue operations. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Villas For Sale in Dubai Might Surprise You Dubai villas | search ads Get Deals Undo Brijesh Ghatyal, in-charge of Kapkot CHC, said that a medical team was sent immediately after receiving news of the incident. "We're trying our best, but due to road closures and dangerous conditions, reaching the village is taking time. Only after reaching can the team assess Kavita's actual condition," he said. A team comprising health officials, Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY) staff, and local police are working to ensure medical aid reaches the village. Dhanuli Devi is survived by her son Khilaf Ram, daughter-in-law Kavita, and three grandchildren. The incident highlights the significant challenges faced by residents of remote Himalayan areas, where monsoon season regularly disrupts access to essential services, including healthcare and emergency assistance.
