चूँकि यह महिला नियमित किराणा की दुकान संचालित कर रही थी जिसके चलते क्षेत्र में कम्युनिटी स्प्रेड का खतरा मंडराने लग गया है इसलिए प्रशासन ने 5 किमी के दायरे में आने वाले घरो में भी थर्मल स्क्रीनिंग शुरू कर दी है।

सवीना में शिल्पनगर स्थित भगवान किराणा स्टोर चलाने वाली महिला के पति, उसकी दो बेटियां, महिला की सास और महिला की बहन भी कोरोना से पॉजिटिव पाए गए है।

प्रशासन ने लोगों से तथा संपर्क में आये सभी परिजनों से अपील की है की पॉजिटिव पाए गए मरीज़ो के सम्पर्क में आए सभी लोग आगे आकर खुद अपनी जाँच करवाए जिससे संक्रमण को और अधिक फैलने से रोका जा सके।

प्रशासन ने कहा है की सभी लोग सीएमएचओ डॉ दिनेश खराड़ी के मोबाईल नंबर +91-9116003775 पर व्हाट्सऍप मेसेज कर संक्रमितों से अपने संपर्क में आने की जानकारी दे सकतें है जिसके बाद चिकित्सा विभाग स्वयं उनसे सम्पर्क कर जांच करवाएगा।

Udaipur lakes breathing fresh air in Lockdown

Udaipur Lockdown Effect

As the industrial units, vehicle movement and tourist places in the city come to a halt while people being locked inside their houses, the level of pollution has reduced drastically allowing the city to breathe some fresh air.

And due to the reduced air and water pollution, the amount of oxygen in the city’s lakes has also increased.

While one cannot deny the fact that COVID-19 lockdown has severely strained the livelihoods of lakhs and played havoc with the economy. But if we look beyond the quarantined homes, there is a see a city in bloom. Blissfully unpolluted, greener and cleaner, Udaipur is reliving the memories of an era long gone.

The most dramatic turnaround has been water quality in the lakes of the city.

The lockdown has come as a blessing in disguise for these lifelines of the city. And there are visible signs that the two of most popular lakes of Udaipur — Fatehsagar and Pichola – are getting healed naturally. With major pollutants like boat ferries shut down and minimum human interference, the lockdown is having a profound impact on the city’s environment.

If we look into the before and after the lockdown figures of the lake water purity measurement from the Pollution Control Board, there has been a substantial improvement in the purity of the water.

The increased level of oxygen has also enhanced the clarity of the water making the base of the lakes visible.

As per the sources, the Pollution Control Board takes the water sample every month to study the pollution level.

The following table gives a clear picture of how much polluted the water of the lakes was before the lockdown and how the lockdown has given a new life to these waterbodies of the city.

Lake DO pH EC TDS DO pH EC TDS
Pichola 6.8 7.9 500 442 8.2 8.16 591 413

Udaipur’s Rohitesh bags 2 World Record in Motorsports

Young Achievers from Udaipur

A young man from Udaipur, Rohitesh Upadhyay, bagged not one but two world records in the field of motorsports. Rohitesh, who hails from Udaipur, bagged the record of stagging the longest ever Sportbike Freestyle Riding done by anyone in India.

Rohitesh attempted this skilled act in the field of Sportbike Freestyle Riding on September 29 last year. The act named as ‘No Hands Motorcycle Wheelie’ is one of the most difficult tricks performed in motorsports.

In this trick, the athlete is not allowed to touch the handlebar at any time after the starting line, while the front wheel remains in the air throughout. Rohitesh managed to balance this specific wheelie for a distance of 125.7 meters non-stop!

The trick was set as a record in the International Book of World Records. On 17th April this year, the Golden Book of World Records also honoured him for the same record.

The motorsports athlete, Rohitesh has been in the field for the past 10 years. He has attended more than 100 shows across India.

The ex-TVS Factory Rider also broke the India Book of Records in Chennai in 2017 at Express Avenue Mall. The 5-hour long show started at 12 noon and extended up till 5 pm in the evening.

Rohitesh is currently associated with an international OEM manufacturer brand where he tests concept electric motorcycles.

He will be felicitated in December 2020 in Delhi for making India proud by being the first Indian to bring this laurel home.

More power to him!

State Govt to deploy mobile OPDs to treat general health-related problems

Mobile OPD Vans in Rajasthan

The Chief Minister of Rajasthan, Ashok Gehlot on Tuesday ordered the deployment of 400 vans to be used as mobile Out-Patient Department (OPD) units across the state to ensure uninterrupted health services for the public.

The vans will be stationed at block headquarters and other important locations across the state. The public can approach these vans for any general health-related problem.

Amid the coronavirus pandemic, these 400 mobile OPD vans will provide medical services to people near their doorstep.

Since there are many hospitals in the state which have become dedicated COVID-19 hospitals, the general public is finding it difficult to approach the hospitals for their general health-related problems.

The Chief Medical and Health Official will be informed when any person with a serious illness will approach mobile OPD. The officer will have to ensure that the treatment starts on a priority at a government or private hospital.

The government said that is will take strict action against hospitals which deny treatment to people. The first and the foremost moral and social responsibility of a hospital is to provide treatment to the patient approaching them.

The CM said that this is a testing time for the private hospitals and they should fulfil this moral and social responsibility without a fail.

Besides, the government has also decided to appoint 9,000 auxiliary and general nursing midwives to strengthen basic health care.
