Updated: Sun, 30 Nov 2025 09:31 (IST) HIV infection is increasing in West Singhbhum district, where there are 560 patients. Patient care is affected due to shortage of staff in ART centers. 74 new cases have been reported since April 2025. The situation has become more serious due to the vacancy of posts like medical officer and counsellor. Due to lack of awareness, people are not tested in time, increasing the infection. The administration is now preparing to conduct an awareness campaign. File photo. Jagran Correspondent, Chaibasa. The situation of HIV infection in West Singhbhum district of Jharkhand is getting serious day by day. Recently, the questions raised about the health system deepened after HIV-infected blood was given to five children infected with thalassemia. There are currently 560 HIV patients in the district. This includes 347 men, 198 women, 15 third gender and 15 children. The worrying thing is that since April 2025, 74 new patients have been registered, which is an indication of the rapid spread of the infection. There is a huge shortage of staff, ART center is in serious crisis. The ART (Anti Retro Viral Therapy) center operated for the treatment and monitoring of HIV patients in the district is currently facing staff crisis. The center is operated with the support of only four employees, while seven positions are required for effective operation. Remove Only Advertisement Read News The most serious situation is regarding the post of Medical Officer, which is vacant for a long time. Despite the vacancy being announced four times, not a single application was received. It is clear from this that administrative efforts are also light. Apart from this, the posts of counselor and laboratory technician are also vacant. As a result, the counselling, regular examinations, viral load monitoring and adherence follow-up of patients are directly affected. It is impractical to monitor 560 patients in such a large district with the help of only four people. It also poses a threat to both the safety and treatment of patients. Increasing cases and weak system – questions raised about accountability. HIV infection is increasing rapidly in the district, but the condition of ART centers is worse than before. The big question about the health system is how will HIV management be effective without medical officers and technical staff? Civil Surgeon Dr. Bharti Minj says that medicines and test kits are adequately available for HIV patients. But due to shortage of staff, it becomes difficult to deliver these services to the patients at the right time and in the right manner. Dr. Minz acknowledged that a large number of patients require follow-up and consultation each month. But the surveillance process is seriously hampered due to limited staff, which is a major obstacle in infection control. Lack of awareness about HIV among the people in the district is also a matter of concern. Many people are not tested in time and delay treatment, thereby increasing the infection. The administration is now preparing to conduct an awareness campaign in rural and urban areas, so that people can be tested in time and become aware of treatment. The future of 560 HIV patients depends on how long the ART center can be fully staffed. The lack of human resources in the face of increasing cases exposes the negligence of the health department.

A sudden glitch in flight operations at the Jaipur airport on Wednesday morning disrupted the day of many passengers. Two important flights of private airline IndiGo – from Jaipur to Udaipur and Ahmedabad – have been canceled due to technical reasons and non-availability of aircraft. As soon as the information was received, commotion started at Jaipur airport. Passengers opened a front against Indigo Airlines. Specifically: Flight 6E-7217, which was scheduled to depart from Jaipur to Ahmedabad at 08:10, was suddenly cancelled. Similarly, flight 6E-7465, which was scheduled to take off from Jaipur to Udaipur at 06:55, was also cancelled. Problems of passengers: This news of cancellation was fatal for many passengers. Many passengers are heading to Ahmedabad and Udaipur to attend office, appear for exams or settle family matters. The sudden shutdown left people waiting outside – many having to take alternative flights, taxis or long journeys. For young children, the elderly and those pressed for time, the cancellation was particularly upsetting. IndiGo’s position and rules: According to IndiGo’s policy (Conditions of Carriage), if the aircraft is not available, or the flight is canceled due to technical reasons, the airline reserves the right of “flight cancellation/rescheduling”. In such cases, passengers may be given the option of a full refund of the ticket amount, or a transfer to a future flight (subject to seat availability). However, IndiGo clarifies on its website that it is not responsible for additional losses (eg missed connecting flights, hotel/taxi expenses, etc.) due to cancellation or delay. This means passengers can get a ticket refund or a new ticket – but other expenses (such as long journeys, taxis, hotels, etc.) are unlikely to be covered by IndiGo. Passenger Rights: Complain, Seek Compensation In case of cancellation or long delay of domestic flights in India, passengers have prescribed certain rights. If your flight is canceled without your consent, you can opt for a refund or rebooking. Also, if the airline delays or reschedules the flight by more than 6 hours, you can complain and seek compensation based on the passenger charter.

Jaipur Development Authority (JDA) has taken an important step aimed at ensuring transparency and accountability in the financial transactions of development authorities, municipal corporations and municipal councils in the state. JDA has recommended to the state government that the expenditure of development authorities and local bodies working in other districts of the state should be audited by the Chief Accountant General of India (CAG). In this matter, the CAG office has also recently sent a letter to the state government making it clear that being audited by CAG for all those local bodies or authorities that take grants or loans from the central or state government comes under the prescribed provisions. In this sense, various urban bodies operating in Rajasthan come under its purview and it is the responsibility of the government to ensure financial transparency about it. Why was CAG audit necessary? In Rajasthan, a large amount of government money is spent on urban expansion, construction of infrastructure, roads, parks, housing schemes and urban development projects. Many times complaints come to light about such projects like irregular expenditure, lack of work quality and payment exceeding the approved budget. Internal audit systems of local bodies often appear to be weak and unable to objectively investigate major financial issues. In such a situation, getting the financial audit by an autonomous supreme audit body like CAG is seen as an attempt to further strengthen transparency. Why is JDA’s step important? JDA is already engaged in major urban development projects. Given the investment in infrastructure and urban planning in the capital, the audit process here is more systematic and standards-based. A lack of uniformity and financial discipline was observed in the operations of many authorities and municipal bodies in other districts. In such a situation, JDA has given suggestions to the state government that – there is a need to improve the financial management of urban bodies, the money of government schemes should be spent in the right direction, irregularities can be curbed in time, accountability should be established and public interest should be strengthened. Role and Responsibilities of Local Bodies To strengthen urban democracy in the country, important powers have been given to local bodies. They provide primary services like city planning, sanitation, road construction, water supply, street lights, urban development. For these works they are provided budget from the state and central government. Therefore – “It is important to fix the responsibility of the body that receives money from the public and the government.” Share this story Tags

The capital’s public transport system was thrown into disarray again on Wednesday when bus drivers from a private firm called Paras Travels went on strike. About 100 low-floor buses based at Bagrana depot of JCTSL, operated by this firm, were off the roads. As a result, city office employees, school students, patients and ordinary travelers were all affected. Bus service has stopped – what is the reason? Managers and conductors alleged that Paras Travels was constantly violating labor laws. They say that the buses are not maintained, salaries and overtime are not paid, and proper compensation and security are not provided to the families of the deceased or injured employees and themselves. With these demands he suddenly started a strike. Only 7–8 buses could operate from the depot – whereas usually around 100–100 buses are in operation daily. As a result, the movement of lakhs of daily commuters from the city came to a standstill. Many candidates, employees, patients depended on private vehicles, cars or expensive taxis. Affected routes and day-to-day problems: Buses were not found on the advisory routes — like Tonk Road, Sanganer, Vidyadhar Nagar, Jhotwara, Railway Station, etc. There were long queues at many bus stops in the morning and evening, but people were seen upset due to the non-arrival of buses. Some were delayed even for office, check-up or hospital appointments. According to a report, more than 50 thousand passengers faced problems on Tuesday-Wednesday alone due to the strike. Drivers collapse, bus service restored. However, after late-night talks, an agreement was reached between Paras Travels and the drivers’ union. The company accepted their major demands – salaries, ESI/PF, overtime, compensation to the family of the deceased driver, accident insurance, etc. After this, the drivers called off the strike and the buses were put back into operation.

Concerns about social security have increased due to the sighting of leopards again in the residential area of ​​Jaipur. On Tuesday evening, at around 2 o’clock, the heavy snow was rising, when information was received about the leopard going hunting in Sector-10 of Vidyadhar Nagar, a residential area. In the morning, local people found pug marks from a leopard near the calf’s carcass, which showed that the threat was indeed real. After this incident, the team of Rajasthan forest department became active and search operation was started on the basis of pug marks. The local administration has heightened vigilance in the surrounding areas. This is not the first time – just six days ago, on November 20, the leopard was spotted in the Civil Lines area of ​​the capital. At that time he even entered the bungalow of state ministers and a school due to which there was panic among the people. After a long effort, the forest department calmed him down and released him safely in the forest. Why is the movement of leopards in cities increasing? Forest department and experts say that the main reasons for the increase in such incidents in recent months are urban expansion, decreasing extent of forests and lack of prey (animal abundance) in the forest. In particular, areas around protected wildlife areas such as the Jhalana–Amagarh Leopard Conservation Reserve are now rapidly turning into residential and commercial areas. As a result, the distance between forest and human habitation is almost ending for leopards. What should the local people do now – Caution and awareness are needed; do not graze or leave animals in the open at night or in the morning and evening. If anyone sees a leopard’s pug marks or sees the animal roaming, you should immediately inform the forest department or local police. Take special care of children, old people and those traveling through unfamiliar routes. Do not feed pets, calves, meat etc. not left in the open – it can attract leopards. The Forestry Department also appealed to the citizens not to take such incidents lightly: “Those who see a leopard should not make noise, but should inform immediately so that both the animal and people remain safe.” Share this story Tags
