  There is a long queue.  A relative of a patient however reaches the medicine counter but couldn't understand properly about the administration of medicine as prescribed by the doctor. On request at the counter, she had been told to visit the doctor who prescribed it. But it isn't possible because it would be a time-consuming matte r.      I have just been shocked to see the horrible condition of persons on a national TV that happened in a renowned hospital in west Bengal. It is not that there is no patient counselling centre in the hospital. But the number of such hospitals is very less. The lack of patient counselling centres in maximum hospitals indicates the urgent need for its establishment attached to the hospitals.  You might have heard about it. Patient counselling is providing information, assistance & guidance about the administration of medicine. It might be orally or in the written form.    Now, reasons are many for which such a set-up should be there in a d

                   Only a few days are left to celebrate the international peace day'21 . Roam around the world --from corporate to small start-up, from individual to the community or greater society, believe me, you will find the most wanted requirements of the hour--- "Peace" and more emphasis on celebrating world peace day.    UN General assembly declared every 3rd Tuesday of September to celebrate the international peace day which later on changed as 21st September from the year 2001. It is a day to observe as 24 hours-non -violence & ceasefire day. It is the day when the peace bell in Japan is rung to send the message or theme of the year globally in support of maintaining peace.   In this respect, it is needless to mention that every year there used to be a dedicated theme to celebrate international peace day. For eg:- theme was  in   2018-- "Right to peace" 2019--    "Climate action for peace" 2020---"Shaping peace together".     

  For the last 17 months school had been closed and there is uncertainty in its reopening .  " Research on violations against children during the pandemic "-a total guidance of UNICEF for fact-finding had no doubt reflect the very fact of abuse, violence & harmful practice of children. Child labour had increased in insignificant proportion due to the closure of schools.        Here our concern obviously is much more for the children who belong to the underprivileged category. Closure of school had an impact on their nutrition, physical & mental health, child safety as well. This no doubt will indicate the requirement of school reopening. But some interlinked factors should also be emphasized with school reopening consideration.         Recently,  I have attended a webinar with Ngo representatives, eminent parliamentarians, Educators etc on the school reopening issue. It was really a good step by the organizer for arranging such a beautiful discussion on the urge of sc

                   I am not an expert in writing about geopolitics or related topics. But somewhere in a mind of a hybrid blogger, it emerges to write about the situation in Afghanistan & thereafter to analyse- why it is required for forming an international force to maintain peace all over the world.   This writing is not in favour or against any community, religion and country. It's an honest try to jot down some aspects that are inevitable for discussing the aforesaid matter- " Why there is a requirement for international force for maintaining peace"?    Recently all of us are aware of taking Afghanistan by Taliban 2.0 . They were in power from 1996 to 2001 . All we know is the barbarism associated with their actions in earlier Afghanistan as Taliban 1.0.     Recent Taliban2.0 claiming of being moderate & presenting themselves on social media reflecting their willingness to keep a good relation with neighbours & other countries. Taliban spokesperson- Zabiul

  Mental health refers to the way -how we feel, think, behave. In quora, this question was asked by someone & actually, this reflects the need to be discussed & finding a way as many of us might be facing the situation.  Further, this situation might be untold & remain in our subconscious mind, which only negatively impacts our lives. Before levelling the organisation's work culture as "toxic", you have to evaluate whether that existing culture affects everyone or the major portion of employees? If the answer is not, definitely you might have to look for sharpening your skills related to your responsibilities. Now you might ask why the word toxic had been mentioned. Well, Consider a situation in your workplace where achievement matters and not your well being. Do you feel less energetic in going to your workplace the next day? Did you ever feel unattended/neglected/intentionally targeted? If it is yes then you are working in a toxic work culture environment.

     The temperature recorded on 10.08.2021 is 48.8 degrees celsius in Sicily(Itali). For the last few weeks, countries (south & south-east part of Europe)- like Greece, Turaska, Algeria are facing an extreme forest fire. Already 65 nos of deaths had been reported in Algeria.    According to meteorologists, temperature rise might be up to 50 degrees celsius in near future.    (Src-Local newspaper ABP, wb, India.)  Average long term changes in temperature are going to affect the entire world. British meteorologists had guessed of rising of temperature above 50°C in Europe & same is going to happen in other parts of the world.      All those mentioned above reflected the burning issue of "Climate change".  In a recent climate change report of IPCC , it had been mentioned that in the forthcoming next 20 years-average temperature of the earth will cross 1.5°C(by 2040) & which will result in  1.Increase in extreme heat 2.Loss of glacier storage in Asian High Mountains.
