AI to Cut Costs, Boost Efficiency in Healthcare: AIG Chief

Hyderabad, March 12 — Artificial Intelligence (AI) is set to revolutionize the healthcare industry by enhancing efficiency, cutting costs, and significantly improving patient care, according to Dr. D. Nageshwar Reddy, Chairman of AIG Hospitals.

Speaking at the 12th Dr. Manohar V.N. Shirodkar Memorial Lecture on ‘Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare’ at the Indian Institute of Chemical Technology (IICT) on Wednesday, Dr. Reddy introduced Mira, AIG Hospital’s AI-powered Medical Information Robot. He highlighted that patients prefer interacting with Mira as it provides faster responses to their queries compared to human doctors.

“AI will transform agriculture, education, and healthcare. It is already reducing drug discovery timelines from 20 years to just two years, and vaccines can now be developed within a month,” Dr. Reddy noted.

AI is also playing a crucial role in detecting cancerous lesions and predicting drug responses, making it indispensable in modern medicine. The technology is expected to make inroads into other areas of medical science, such as AI-enabled ECG machines that can diagnose liver and heart diseases with greater accuracy.

Dr. Reddy emphasized the importance of ethical AI implementation and patient data protection, referencing the AIIMS Delhi data breach incident from two years ago. “As AI continues to advance, we must prioritize ethical considerations and safeguard patient data to prevent breaches. The adoption of AI will bring tremendous benefits but may also lead to job displacement in some sectors,” he cautioned.

During the event, Dr. Reddy was felicitated by Dr. Ch. Mohan Rao, President of the Telangana Academy of Sciences (TAS), alongside TAS Vice-President Prof. Ch. Sanjeeva Reddy, General Secretary Prof. S. Satyanarayana, and other dignitaries

How to Make Organic Colours at Home

How to Make Organic Colours at Home

The materials needed to play Holi are water, gulaal, and easily accessible synthetic colours. However, have you ever considered how detrimental these artificial colouring agents are to your skin?

Such colours have been shown to be harsh on the skin, causing cuts, rashes, allergies, and other issues. We can help you find a solution so you can enjoy Holi worry-free.

The only way to play Holi without getting hurt on your skin is to use “DIY Holi colours,” or organic colours, which are created using natural and household ingredients.

Yellow: 

For a yellow colour, you can combine gramme flour and turmeric in a 1:2 ratio. To ensure an even mixing of the ingredients, make sure to rub the mixture between your palms. To get a fine texture, you can then sieve the mixture through a strainer two or three times.

To create wet yellow colours, you can either add turmeric or boil marigolds in water. To achieve better colouring, make sure the turmeric is organic.

Red: 

Turmeric and lemon juice can be combined. Because lemon juice is acidic, it will cause the turmeric to turn red. After that, you can set the mixture aside in a well-ventilated area to dry. Just make sure there is not any sunlight present or it will bleach.

Red hibiscus flowers can also be dried until crisp, at which point they can be ground into a powder using a mixer. To boost the quantity and quality of the colour, you can then combine equal parts rice flour and red saffron.

To get a red, wet colour, you can also boil pomegranate peels in water.

Magenta: 

Slices of beetroot can be boiled in water. Red onions can also be used. Before using, strain and chill the water.

Pink: 

You can use the same procedures that you used to create the red colour. Simply use a smaller amount of lemon juice.

Brown: 

To achieve a brown hue, boil 200 grammes of coffee with water. To get rid of the smell, mix some rose water. But remember, coffee water will also result in stains.

Purple:

You can combine corn flour and ground black carrots in a mixer. Then you can leave it to dry. For fragrance, you can also add rose water.

Grey: 

To obtain the grey colour, you can use Indian gooseberry or amla seeds. Combine the corn flour and dried powder, then use without concern.

Green: 

For a dry green colour, you can combine henna powder with rice flour or maida. To get wet colours, mix it with water. Recall that henna combined with water can stain your skin and clothing. 

How to Celebrate Holi

Holi is sometimes called the festival of colors and the festival of love. It is called the festival of love, as on this day, people unite forgetting all the differences and bad feelings for each other. 

Holi marks the arrival of the spring season which is the harvest season and the end of winter.

This festival of colors lasts for around a day and a night in the month of Falgun or Phalguna, which starts in the evening of Purnima or Full Moon Day. 

The first evening of this great festival is celebrated with the name Holika Dahan or Choti Holi and the following day is called and celebrated as Holi. 

However, it is known by different names in different parts of the country.

How to celebrate Holi and what its its Significance:

  • As Holi is the festival of colors, it is considered that vibrant colors bring in a lot of positivity to our lives. And it is worth enjoying and celebrating a day to fill our lives with positivity. 
  • The ritual is started by lighting up the bonfire one day before the day of Holi and people often throw things like wood, dried leaves, and twigs into bonfires. This process resembles the victory of good over bad.
  • On the day of Holi people purely enjoy and have fun by splashing colors on each other called Gulal, with their friends and families.
  • Also, there are a few private parties where people can attend and play Holi together. Holi is a fun-filled festival that can be enjoyed with your friends, neighbors, and your colony members too. 
  • Children also enjoy the festival by splashing colored water with water guns and water balloons. People also dance and vibe around by playing songs on this festive day. 
  • In the evening they show love and respect to their close ones with some lip-smacking sweets like Gujiya and a special Holi drink called Thandai.
  • According to Hindu mythology, demon king Hiranyakashyap was given a boon which gave him the superpower of not being killed by either a man or any animal. 
  • Hiranyakashyap had bad intentions and wanted to be worshiped by people. On the other hand, his own son Prahalad was a great devotee of Lord Vishnu. 
  • As his own son doesn’t worship him, Hiranyakashyap was angry at that fact and asked his sister, demon Holika to sit in a pyre(bonfire) while holding his Prahalad. Both Holika and Prahalad sat on fire. 
  • But only Holika died, and Prahlad was saved by Lord Vishnu. After saving Prahalad, Lord Vishnu took the avatar of Narasimha- a half-human and half-lion and killed the demon king Hiranyakashyap. 
  • Hence, many locals celebrate the morning bonfire which is Holika Dahan which represents the burning of the demoness Holika. 
  • The colors with which we play Holi, are also said to have some meaning within them. The color blue symbolizes the color of Lord Krishna, as it was believed that he was born with blue skin. 
  • The color Green – resembles New beginnings and Rebirth. The red color symbolizes good marital life or fertility. However, yellow is a color that is used on every occasion and is considered to be auspicious.
  • Although Holi is celebrated in the same way across the country, there are a few places where the celebration is unique. Celebrations of Holi in Vrindavan and Mathura are very famous for their unique celebrations. 
  • Also, in places like Rajasthan, Barsana, and Uttar Pradesh people celebrate Lathmar Holi. During Lathmar Holi women hit men with sticks(called lath) and the men try to shield themselves. 
  • So, this Holi makes a point to educate your children about the significance of the festival, enjoy playing Holi with your neighbors or friends and seek the blessings of your elders. Have a happy and safe Holi!

ED Attaches Assets Worth Rs 8 Crore in Hyderabad Illegal Drug Export Case

Telangana's Mucherla village is the leader in organ donation, having received more than 70 eye donations

Telangana’s Mucherla village is the leader in organ donation, having received more than 70 eye donations

In a country where organ donation rates are among the lowest globally, Mucherla stands as a beacon of hope and unity. Despite India having fewer than one organ donation per million people, the village’s 500 residents have all pledged to donate their eyes after death, creating a powerful tradition.

This movement, which began several years ago, has gained significant momentum. About 70 villagers have already donated their eyes, thanks to the efforts of Mandala Ravinder, a divisional engineer in the irrigation department and a native of Mucherla. Ravinder initiated the cause over a decade ago by vowing to donate his mother’s eyes, believing firmly that organs should not be wasted after death. In 2019, Ravinder donated his father’s organs and has since been inspiring others in the village to follow suit.

“I believe that organs should not go to waste after death. I pledged to donate my organs and donated my father’s organs in 2019. I encouraged others to do the same, hoping to help those in need and foster positive change,” Ravinder said in an interview with TOI.

His efforts have had a ripple effect. Villager Malla Reddy explained, “We contact Ravinder sir when a death occurs in the family. He coordinates with the doctors to ensure the necessary steps are taken. He’s our go-to person.”

The initiative has brought the community closer, as many families share the belief that they can continue contributing even after death. What began as a few individual pledges has evolved into a widespread movement. The impact has extended to neighboring villages, with at least 20 individuals from surrounding areas committing to donate their eyes to the LV Prasad Eye Institute.

Mucherla has also put in place a well-organized system to handle these donations. Detailed records are kept, and coordination with hospitals in the district ensures a swift response when donations are needed. B Sujatha, a villager who donated her mother’s eyes, shared her pride in contributing to reducing visual impairment.

“We donated my mother’s eyes, and I feel immense pride in knowing that we’ve helped reduce visual impairment in society,” Sujatha said. “Our village’s commitment to organ donation has become a model that continues to inspire change.”

The village’s efforts were recently recognized when Mucherla was awarded the ‘Excellence in Eye Donation’ award by the Governor. This honor acknowledges their dedication and the impact they’ve had in raising awareness about the importance of organ donation.
