India is among 51 countries to sign the “Rome Declaration” on “Achieving Self-sufficiency in Safe Blood and blood products based voluntary non-remunerated donation”. Blood is an intrinsic requirement for health care and proper functioning of the health system. National AIDS Control Organization under Department of Health and Family Welfare has been primarily responsible for ensuring provision of safe blood for the country since 1992. National Blood Policy 2003 reiterates firmly the government’s commitment to provide safe and adequate quantity of blood, blood components and blood products.

However, in India, a needy patient or his relatives have to run from pillar to post in search of blood and the onus of procurement of blood still lies with the patient and not with the service provider.

Suggestions are invited on how to develop a nationally coordinated and well networked blood transfusion service in the country and reach 100% voluntary blood donation to enable us to meet the global goal of self sufficiency in blood and blood products.

I'm glad that our new PM has taken a lot of initiatives to connect to the people of the country and get their suggestions! I live and work in Singapore. Here I saw a fruit juice vending machine that gave fresh orange juice for $2! Given that there is a lot of fruit wastage in our country, this simple vending machine could also help reduce food wastage and improve health of the people! Singapore is at the forefront of health promotion and prevention and we can all learn from its healthcare model.

There are several ways in which eLearning can help. ll we need is an internet connection and we are through! With the mobile, there is so much more that can be done now. The PMO could launch a free app that sends reminders about healthy eating habits and sanitation to all users on a regular basis ! With the booming tech industry, the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare could seriously capitalise on the 'smartphone addiction' and impart knowledge to the youth of the country regarding healthcare

I read a post earlier which stressed on the fact that there aren't enough doctors to take care of the sick in our country at the moment. eLearning could be one solution until physical infrastructure is made available to a larger population. With disease burden rising and sanitation being a priority, imparting knowledge to potential students could help build capacity in the country.

I'm working on a World Health Organisation funded project looking at eLearning as a potential intervention health professional education. The WHO estimates that there is a lack of about 7.2M healthcare professionals (including doctors, nurses, pharmacists and other allied health professionals). This paucity of professionals is skewed towards the developing countries. India can benefit tremendously from the eLearning initiatives by imparting healthcare knowledge to the masses.

सम्मानीय प्रधानमंत्री जी, भारत एक गावों का देश है, जहाँ पर ७० फीसदी से ज्यादा लोग कृषि पर आधारित है, और गावों में रहते है लेकिन आम आदमी को जो मूलभूत सुविधाएँ जीवन यापन करने के लिए होनी चाहिए, जिस पर जीवन आधारित होता है, वही ही मूलभूत सुविधाएँ आज़ादी के ६ दसक के बाद भी उपलब्ध नहीं है, इसलिए ग्रामीण जीवन बहुत ही दयनीय होता जा रहा है, और धीरे-धीरे गावों से लोंगो का पलायन शहरों के तरफ हो रहा है, और गावं उजड़ते जा रहे, शहरी जीवन भी जटिल और प्रभावित हो रहा है, ऐसी स्थिति में क्या आप नहीं सोचते?

की हम अगर उद्योगों को सिर्फ शहरों में स्थापित करने के वजाय अगर ५० फीसदी उद्योगों को ग्रामीण खेत्रों में स्थापित करें तो इस से हमारें देश की एक विकट समस्या का समाधान हो सकता एवं गावों से जो पलायन शहरों के तरफ हो रहा है, वह कम हो जायेगा और कुछ सीमा तक ग्रामीण जीवन में भी एक नयी शक्ति और नया जीवन संचार आ सकता है, जिससे देश को एक नयी दिशा मिल सकती है!

They are just lying low because they are in small number. Some system may be evolved for using these qualified doctors. It is high time for govt to think on these people and have an equal opportunity for FMGs and graduates coming from our private colleges. Even though they may have studied in English medium and best of the colleges they are not getting any opportunity to serve this country.

For having a clean India, we need to ensure that waste bins are available at very accessible distance on roads, buses, trains and at every public place. If such a provision is available, it will encourage people to make most of it. Besides, we also need to have regular clearance mechanism of this accumulated waste which needs to very effective. In most of foreign countries, such mechanism exists and works very effectively.
