Big news for Bengaluru! Addressing the need for a dedicated polytrauma facility to provide life-saving care during the golden hour after accidents or critical injuries, Modi Ji Government has approved a NIMHANS Postgraduate Institute & 300-bed Polytrauma Centre at Kyalasanahalli near the airport, at a total cost of ₹498 crore. Had persistently raised the need for this Polytrauma Centre since 2022, and with the Department of Expenditure’s clearance, it can now be operationalised soon - marking a major step in making Bengaluru a medical hub & strengthening the city's healthcare infrastructure. Grateful to PM Shri @NarendraModi Ji & Health Minister Shri @JPNadda Ji for sanctioning this facility. The approval for the project reflects Modi 3.0’s commitment to delivering quality healthcare & citizen-first governance. @MoHFW_INDIA @NIMHANS_BLR 1/2

This is a wonderful idea.
உடல் உறுப்பு தானத்தின் மூலம் நூற்றுக்கணக்கான நோயாளிகளுக்கு வாழ்வளிக்கும் அரும்பணியில் நாட்டின் முன்னணி மாநிலமாகத் தமிழ்நாடு தொடர்ந்து விளங்கி வருகின்றது. குடும்ப உறுப்பினர்கள் மூளைச்சாவு நிலையை அடைந்த துயரச் சூழலிலும், அவர்களின் உடல் உறுப்புகளைத் தானமாக அளித்திட முன்வரும் குடும்பங்களின் தன்னலமற்ற தியாகங்களால்தான் இந்தச் சாதனை சாத்தியமாகியுள்ளது. தம் உறுப்புகளை ஈந்து, பல உயிர்களைக் காப்போரின் தியாகத்தினைப் போற்றிடும் வகையில், இறக்கும் முன் உறுப்பு தானம் வழங்குவோரின் இறுதிச்சடங்குகள் இனி அரசு மரியாதையுடன் மேற்கொள்ளப்படும்! #OrganDonation #OrganDonorHeroes #DonateLife #OrganTransplant

Every problem is actually an opportunity to showcase your inherent talent and making sense for your purpose in the world. Those who understood make history, the others simply give up.

sadly this is going to be a burden, is anyone listening
BIG BOOM FOR COACHING CENTERS LOOKS LIKE COACHING CENTERS MAKES MORE MONEY THAN SCHOOLS DO 16.85 LAKS STUDENTS REGISTERED FOR CUET 20.87 LAKS FOR NEET 8.6 LAKS FOR JEE MAINS IMPORTANCE OF SCHOOL BOARD EXAMS MARKS ARE COMING DOWN. HUGE FINANCIAL BURDEN TO PARENTS ARE WE HEADING FOR SITUATIONS WHERE ONLY RICH AND AFFORDABLE ONLY CAN TAKE A BETTER CAREER? AMOUNT OF MONEY THESE COACHING CENTRES SPENT ON ADVERTISING ITSELF PROVES HOW LUCRATIVE THIS BUSINESS IS. EVEN I WAS RUNNING A COACHING INSTITUTION LONG BACK TILL THERE WAS EQUAL IMPORTANCE WAS GIVEN FOR BOTH BOARD EXAMS MARKS AND ENTRANCE MARKS In ADMISSIONS. WHEN POLICY DECISION CHANGED THAT ONLY ENTRANCE EXAMS MARKS WILL BE CONSIDERED I STOPPED. IMPORTANCE OF SCHOOL BOARD EXAMS MARKS SHOULD ALSO BE THE CRITERIA FOR ADMISSIONS TO ALL UG PROGRAMS. OTHERWISE BAN ENTRANCE EXAMS.
