[asom] Re: An Appeal to the People of Assam
Dear Naba, Please see the mail below: Pratul Kalita Institute Coordinator, NEPIF As could be expected, because of the senseless violence in North East (and courtesy external media magnifying the ills here), an effort which was underway for finding employment for NE students got a little jolt. NEPIF had initiated, in association with Gauhati Univeristy, this Placement Event for TCS, to find employment of B.SC BCA students of North East. So much efforts were already invested - more than a dozen college authorities directly contacted, news-ads given on news papers, logistics planned .. But however same had to be deferred for obvious reasons! Call it whatever might be, but we have not been dis-heartened. We are professionals and can not really do more than raising our voice of protest against the evil deeds. But at the same time, we would also keep working for the betterment of NE in whatever smaller capacities, as than only we can negate whatever is the negative growth that has been brought about by these evils. NEPIF has already found employment for 77 Engineering Management students of NE, in prestigious organizations like Satyam, ICICI Bank, Genpact, Colgate Palmolive etc. with annual starting salary of Rs.2.5 lakhs to 3.5lakhs. The planed event for TCS shall be held and the dates would be notified to you again, so that you can bring it to the notice of the eligible students near you... for more information, kindly visit the forum site: http://www.nepif. weblet.in/ Lets hope we see a more peaceful North East soon.

Very true Saumar, It's indeed a gargantuan task to explain the difference to such people. I have committed the Himalayan blunder quite a couple of times. The moment you end up describing about the multi-national company (MNC) you are working for, pat comes the responseOhhh!!...I get it. A BPO!! (like hell he/she knows..may not even know the full form, leave alone the what it stands for! You wince, but valiantly keep a straight face! He/she continues nonetheless...) It is really sad that you people in MNCs have to talk to clients all through the night!?...You try once, you repeat twice, thrice, trying to get it straight again, ultimately you sagely bob your head and echo...yes, sometimes..especially when I can't get any sleep! When you can't beat them, join them... is what most of us end up doing. Regards, Gitanjali Hazarika PS: Infosys is a helluva company guys. Great work. Show them your skills.

[asom] Asom to get country's first mobile hospital of traditional medicine
Imagine a well-equipped hospital carrying medical facilities to rescue people from dreaded diseases like diabetes and cancer at your doorstep. It may seem impossible for people in the remote and hilly terrains of Asom, but this is what veteran herbal medicine practitioner Gunaram Khanikar is all set to make possible. With a mission to take the cardinal message 'Prevention is better than cure' to the rural masses, Mr Khanikar and his NGO, Research and Training Centre on Indian Traditional Treatment(RTCITT), is gearing up to open India's first Mobile Hospital of herbal medicines. The hospital, to be launched in upper Asom's Golaghat district, would carry herbal medicines, samples of aromatic plants found in the region, photographs of the various herbal plants as well as books containing information on the side-effect-free herbal medicines and promote herbal treatment in the state. ''Our basic aim is to popularise herbal treatment among the rural masses and collect and preserve the medicinal plants abundantly found in the forests and jungles of the region. We want to promote the message that prevention is better than cure,'' Managing Director of the NGO Mr Khanikar said. Funded by local MP Dip Gogoi, the hospital in a six-wheeler will also take out an exhibition and a food consciousness mission to promote healthy food habits as well as herbal medicine cultivation as employment generation sources. He said, ''Herbal medicines are a tried and tested treatment method for prevention of many diseases like cancer and diabetes and the North east is immensely rich in herbal and aromatic plants. But due to lack of awareness we are yet to reap benefit''. The hospital will also be accompanied by eight resource persons comprising ayurvedic doctors and nurses who will try to provide ayurvedic treatment among the masses and children in the schools and colleges in the rural areas. ''Our resource persons will provide training to children and youths on the identification of the herbal and aromatic plants and their commercial cultivation. We will also open a garden of herbal medicinal plants in each school and college of the state, particularly in the rural areas,'' Mr Khanikar added KOUSHIK HAZARIKA http://asom.co.nr
