The power of social media is really beneficial if you use it in a good way, everything is having its pros and cons but if you use it wisely it will give you the reach you deserve. Pulkit Vij India’s youngest builder is utilizing all of his social media platforms to enhance and grow his business, well he is using it in such a way that his company Kamal Associates has now become one of the best companies in real estate industry. A graduate from Delhi University took his father’s business to new heights and has become a youth icon. He introduces many new schemes and benefits for his clients using his innovative ideas.

Pulkit Vij through his YouTube channel, interact with his clients and also spread knowledge which is a mandate in today’s time for those who want to invest in the real estate industry or need to buy a home. With the motto of “Apna Ghar Sabka Ghar” Pulkit’s father founded Kamal Associates. Instead of spending years in vain, he geared up for his father’s business to become a name everyone would know. After years of struggle, he is at a point where he is creating a buzz in the media because of his innovative ideas and hard work. In the initial days, he was very nervous while interacting with masses and even during facing the camera. He practiced day and night to prepare himself and speak up in front of the camera. He then started making videos and coming live to interact with his clients and also with the people who are interested to buy their homes or offices but do not know how to do it. Because of this initiative, Pulkit’s office gets flooded with buyers and hence it was challenging to face so many people all of a sudden, but Pulkit did meditation and now he is dealing with many people with full confidence.

Kamal Associates fulfills the dreams of having your own house and workplace as well. They are having a management team of 200-250 members which majorly includes indirect associates, like vendors, marketers, etc. It is a firm with 20-years of experience in the real estate industry and has come up with a unique cash-back scheme for the buyers of affordable housing in Delhi. The company provides the best price and attractive discounts to the buyers who book their flats with a downpayment of at least 5 lakhs, under this scheme.  Kamal Associates also provide the buyer with a monthly rental guarantee, for 12 months, starting from the date of down payment.

This scheme is one of the best schemes that is offered by the big and renowned companies only. As per this scheme, if the buyer will pay Rs 5 lakh down payment, then the company will give them rent receipts worth Rs 5,000 each for the next 12 payments. That means the buyer is only paying Rs. 4,40,000 to the company. This scheme by Kamal Associates will help the small-scale buyers, who want to buy a home for themselves. Due to Pulkit,s extraordinary presence on Facebook and Instagram, the clients of Kamal Associates are increasing day by day.

Kamal Associates also helps buyers to arrange for up to 100% loans for their chosen properties, normally ranging between 1BHK, 2BHK, and 3 BHK. The company successfully delivers 500-700 units to their clients every year.

Chandigarh, April 22, 2021: “Unhealthy lifestyle is leading to more younger people, mainly in the age 30-40 years getting infected by the new strain of the Novel Coronavirus. Younger Indians follow an erratic routine which affects their diet too. Eating junk, spending unending hours on the smartphone and in front of the computer screen is impacting the immunity of this age group of people thus exposing them to COVID”, said Guru Manish Ji.  Guru Manish Ji, founder of Shuddhi Ayurveda which has its corporate headquarter near Chandigarh and runs under its banner 160 + clinics all over India.

Guru Manish Ji, who has established himself as one of India’s most influential Ayurveda and traditional Indian healing methods experts, was interacting with the media here. 

Guru Manish Ji added, “The number of COVID cases is going up exponentially also as the new virus is more virulent and is mutating in a way which helps it infect host human bodies on a larger scale. However fellow Indians on the other hand are not changing their strategy to ward off the COVID threat. Indians are not following time-tested natural immunity  boosting measures suggested by Ayurveda and so the virus is engulfing lakhs of Indians on a daily basis.”

Guru Manish Ji also announced ‘pH-balanced diet’ plans for those displaying COVID-like symptoms or even for those who are COVID positive.

Guru Manish Ji opined, “We can improve our body’s resistance power & immunity naturally by having a pH balanced diet which generally includes consumption of coconut water, fresh citrus fruit juices, vegetable juices, seasonal salads, cucumber, vegetable soups, etc. I also advise doing fasting for 1-2 days, which will help the body rejuvenate, increase its immunity & also detoxify it. ‘Langhan param aushadham’ which means ‘fasting is the best medicine’ & ‘shuddhi param aushadhi’ or ‘body detoxification is the best medicine’  are categorically mentioned in our ancient texts, as supreme natural medicines which prevent as well as cure diseases.”

Guru Manish Ji explained that Indians need to strengthen their soldier cells or T Lymphocytes through natural methods, this can be done through right food intake, fasting from time to time, avoiding certain foods & drinks, having plenty of fluids, and practicing yoga  – mainly breathing techniques like pranayam, anulom vilom, kapal bhati etc.

Shedding light on the vaccination drive, Guru Manish Ji said that vaccination provides protection but there are side effects and in some cases serious ones. He added that one should focus on using traditional Indian systems like Ayurveda to boost immunity strength without any side effects.

Speaking on the option of lockdown Guru Manish Ji said that, “lockdown should be the last resort as it had many negative impacts like economic hardships for the country”. “He said that it was better to work on improving the immunity of all Indians so that the virus’s infection creating propensity is reduced”. 

Meanwhile, Shuddhi Ayurveda has unveiled Vish Har Ras, thirty-two (32) herbal tea, and Ayush Kwath to help fight COVID. Vish Har Ras has major ingredients like Neem & Giloy, which have high antiviral properties. The tea contains 32 medicinal herbs like elaichi, dalchini which have antioxidant properties and Ayush Kwath contains tulsi, pepper and shunthi which help in increasing immunity.

Going digital is the theme of this decade, if a business does not adapt to the changing ecosystem of tech advancements, then it will certainly perish. Owing to the worldwide changes in the way individuals perform their day-to-day activities, each firm has to adopt a tech driven mechanism which eases out the pressure on the manpower and facilitates a minimal contact system.

Savin Communication is one of those leading companies who have leveraged this phase to register a skyrocketing growth with their tech driven end to end PR abilities. Incepted in the year 2017 by Saurav Chaudhary, a Journalism graduate who has a profound PR experience, it is today one of the fastest growing Digital PR Agency committed to the changing needs of the industry.

Catering to the necessity

Having skilfully capped the necessity of several businesses in promoting their products/services with robust PR, Savin Communication has seen a whopping three times growth in their revenues during the phase of the lethal Covid-19 pandemic.

A bootstrapped firm is today generating huge revenue owing to their foresightedness when the world was gripping from the effects of Covid-19. It was the vision of Saurav Chaudhary which emulsified in making Savin a top performing PR agency that has its collaborations with over 100 media publications and associates.

The Rise of a phoenix

The year 2020 which happened to be the year of widespread chaos and shut-downs gave rise to the phoenix that Savin Communication has become today. In 2020-21, Savin Communication launched some rising verticals The PR tree  and WeTheInfluencer which received accolades from various stakeholders for their innovativeness and automations.

The PR tree is their flagship launch that broadens the horizons of a digital breakthrough. Aimed at incentivising businesses to get their stories of triumph published in some of the most renowned platforms across the globe digitally and without any human contact or hassle, the entire process from the client submitting the brief on the website to the final delivery of the links of the various deliverables was seamlessly curated digitally, promoting negligible physical contact and maximum convenience to clients.

Talking about making such disruptions in the PR market, Saurav Chaudhary says,”Since print publications were shut, we saw a huge increase in online publications which is our core service. During the lockdown, we were able to scale our business to a staggering 300 percent growth, our prime focus was on building credibility and catering to the needs of the seemingly isolated, medium and small companies because of which, we were able to disseminate more than 10,000 articles for over 3,000 clients from India and across the globe”.

Creating disruptive tendencies

At times when firms across the globe were drowning with manpower layoffs and massive salary cuts, Savin Communication undertook more hiring’s and saw a burgeoning rise of PR campaign requests on their automated platforms.

Not only this, one aspect which has taken us by surprise was the regular functioning of their offices throughout the pandemic. The committed team at Savin has been working from their headquarters in Noida when most firms shifted to the WFH model and registered their record breaking revenue with no medical casualties only because of their disciplined approach to meeting the needs of the overarching PR requests.

“We followed all the safety precautions inside the company and our manpower worked each day without any medical issues. This calculated decision brought a ball game change into steering more than 3 times growth in our general revenue which was different than many organisations that were facing manpower cuts and sudden decline in their revenues. We knew this was the golden period to leverage our brand to the top and we actually expanded our team with more hirings”, adds Saurav Chaudhary on their revolutionary approach in the midst of the pandemic.

In a nutshell, with their various innovations and  tech driven platforms that have made way for their manpower to only spend their energies on the most pressing tasks, Savin Communication has become an exemplary business model for the industry to adhere and swear by.

On Friday, China Said that it was willing to talk to India about what it needs to tackle the huge rise in coronavirus cases, a day after offering New Delhi much-needed assistance and support.

India has registered 314,835 new coronavirus cases, on 22nd April the highest single-day count recorded anywhere in the world since the pandemic began last year. In the same time frame, India’s death toll from the disease increased by 2,104. The increase in Covid-19 cases has placed a strain on medical facilities, with hospitals in parts of India running out of critical medical supplies such as oxygen.

“China is willing to communicate (on) specific matters with India according to its needs,” the ministry said.

It was unclear if Beijing had formally informed New Delhi of its intention to assist in the fight against the second wave of the Covid-19 pandemic in India. Wang Wenbin, a spokesperson for China’s foreign ministry, said on Thursday that Beijing was aware of the severity of the epidemic in India and that there was a temporary shortage of required materials for epidemic prevention.

At the daily ministry briefing, Wang was responding to a query from Chinese official media about what action China was taking in light of the spreading epidemic in India. Without elaborating on what such assistance could entail, Wang had said “China is willing to provide the necessary support and help.” 

“The novel coronavirus is a common enemy of all mankind, and the global community needs to unite as one to fight against epidemics,” he further added.

India was one of the countries that assisted Beijing with medical supplies last year when the Covid-19 outbreak was at its peak in China. At the time, India had sent China 15 tonnes of medical supplies, including masks, gloves, and emergency medical equipment, for a cost of about 2.11 crore.

When the first wave of the pandemic hit India in April, China returned the favour by dispatching hundreds of aircraft with Covid-19-related medical supplies.

390 tonnes of medical supplies, including RT-PCR test kits, Rapid Antibody test kits, and personal protection equipment, were loaded onto flights bound for India from Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Xi’an, and Hong Kong.

However, relations between India and China soon deteriorated to their lowest point in decades as a result of military clashes along the disputed border in eastern Ladakh. The two countries are still working to defuse the crisis almost a year later.

Most of the world’s important things have been done by people who persisted in seeking even though there appeared to be little hope. Keeping the same attitude, Ishpreet Kaur Makkar, actor and model has received over 57 lakh views on her song “Mehandi Pyaar wali”. Ishpreet rose to prominence in the modeling world after starring in the short film Viha di Gail, which earned 8.1 million views on YouTube.

Today, when people opt for coveted careers like Dancing, Singing, Modeling, and leave them just because of stability issues, Ishpreet didn’t dwindle and continues for fortitude. After a long struggle of five years in the industry, this girl from Chandigarh manifested her name among renowned actors and models, and as she got gigs in music videos and short films.

Hailing from a city in Rajasthan, Ishpreet Kaur belongs to a middle-class family. Her father Gurdeep Singh Makkar runs a business whereas her mother is a homemaker. Her family was always strong in her endeavors and cared for her needs on the way. Completing her schooling at Bikaner, she joined the Jain Girls College where she completed her graduation in Arts.

Interested in acting since childhood

A girl with Jolly nature, Ishpreet got what she wants only from her willpower and hard work. She started learning the art of mehndi (Henna) designing and makeup. Being interested in acting since childhood, she could not eschew her dream and as such started her career from short video songs made by her friend in Bikaner. When she became confident that she can make her career in this field, she started working with more devotion and in the span of three to four years, her music videos got recognition. While pursuing her degree, she assisted her father in his business and on the other hand, kept her struggle on for fulfilling her ambitious dreams.

Carved her niche by short video and modeling

Having worked for a variety of music videos, one of them, ‘Jhoota Pyar Tera’ got more than 2 lakh likes on YouTube. Inspired by the feedback, she was encouraged for going ahead. Later on, she performed in Mera Kissa (3 lakh views), ‘Jhoota Pyar Tera- II’ (6.5 lakh), ‘Kaise jiyunga Tere Bina'( 1.6 lakh), ‘Kyunki Itna Pyar’…. (1.5 Lakh), ‘Mehandi Pyar wali'( 57 lakhs) and hence gained popularity and became the youth icon.

She also acted in the project ‘The real hero Indian Army’ (1.4 lakh), ‘Paisa, Pyaar Aur Dhokha’ (3 lakh), ‘Walapune da Craze'( 3.2 lakh), ‘Viha di Gail'( 8.1 lakh) made her a star in the world of short films and her hard work paid off. The youth started to get inspired by her work in not only Hindi but also from Punjabi projects.

With the support of her family, Ishpreet Kaur started climbing the ladder of success but it wasn’t easy. While she was recuperating, her weight soared to 75 kilograms. It brought her a lot of issues in grabbing roles in the industry. She didn’t lose hope and worked hard day and night to get back in shape and power through the roadblock.

Her mother Parminder Kaur Makkar left Bikaner to support her career and started staying with her in Chandigarh. During her stay in this union territory, Ishpreet Kaur went on learning novel technologies and professional skills in the field of modeling, advertising, short films, acting, and other related skills. She has a dream of becoming a national model and contributes for bringing laurels to her nation and it is for certain that she’ll achieve it.

When considering overseas education, you’ll more than likely hear people say things like, “Studying abroad will change your life.” They are definitely not wrong when they say that. Studying abroad is an incredibly enriching and unforgettable experience for students. It’s also the perfect opportunity you’ll get to travel for a considerable amount of time and truly embrace new cultures overseas.

Careers N’ Options team has listed below five ways students gain a global outlook by studying abroad. If you’re still indecisive whether or not to study abroad, we will say it’s not going to be easy but definitely worth it.

Make Your Resume standout

To live in a country outside of your home country means to face a different language, a foreign culture and customs. This also means you must learn how to budget in a different currency, build relationships with others, explore the city with a new transit system, while being a student. Studying abroad says a lot about you on your resume. It highlights the fact you can adapt to new environments, are culture-sensitive, may be bilingual, are ambitious, and determined. This opens doors for different career opportunities. Employers like an individual who can offer a unique perspective in the workplace and who is open-minded. By studying abroad, you develop a number of skills you wouldn’t otherwise have such as problem-solving, independence and global awareness. Not to mention you have incredible stories to share during interviews. All of these are invaluable assets that distinguish you from others and set you ahead.

Intercultural Development

Immerse yourself in another culture, gain insight on their beliefs and values, and embrace their native language. Studying abroad is recognized as the best way to learn a new language. Being bilingual/multilingual will take you a long way. Many employers see this as a highly reputable skill. It is dependent on the length of your stay, however, you will at least build a foundation of the language.

You’ll be exposed to new and exciting foods, and may even fall in love with certain dishes you didn’t know existed. Amongst many things, you’ll listen to unique music and experience local traditions. This will also be a great opportunity to teach others about your own culture. In a world that is becoming increasingly globalized, it’s important to understand different cultures around the world.

Personal Growth 

Studying abroad provides you with significant personal growth. Placing yourself in a new environment will encourage you to learn more about yourself. It can be difficult at times, but it’ll present you with life lessons that will teach you independence, confidence and maturity.

As an international student, you’re forced to step outside of your comfort zone, perhaps something you don’t tend to do at home. While many students may view stress and risk as negative terms, it’s important to push outside of your mental security. Not to say your comfort zone holds you back, but you do benefit from leaving it. This is ultimately the perfect way to add more excitement to your life and to change up your routine.

Build Your Network

Your personal network is a critical part of your success, not to mention the lifelong friendships you will create. These days, it’s simple to stay in touch with friends and family all over the world thanks to programs like Skype, Instagram, Facebook and of course our smartphones. It may seem like a challenge to meet other students and connect with them, but it really isn’t. Keep in mind everyone is in the same situation as you, nervous and excited but open to making friends. Whether you choose to join extra-curricular activities or attend events at school, you will build these friendships with no problem. Many of the friendships you make will encourage you to continue your travels later in life. Having friends who live at your travel destination grants you access to a local tour guide and perhaps free accommodations.

New Perspectives

Beyond your comfort zone, you develop a positive and different way of looking at the world, your studies and yourself. The experience impacts your values and choices. Years may go by, but you will always think back to your studies abroad when it comes down to making a decision or perhaps just reflecting on memories. You will also gain an appreciation for the smaller things in life, such as your mother’s home-cooked meals. By studying abroad, you have everything to gain.

Studying abroad is a trend that existed for ages and has only gained more and more popularity with time. Students from every field imaginable have a scope to study in a foreign country and have done so too. Mr. Ratan Tata, Mr. Shashi Tharoor, Ms. Sara Ali Khan, Mr. Pranoy Roy, Ms. Indira Nooyi and countless others from a myriad of fields have gone abroad to study the course of their choice. Today, studying from the best universities across the globe is a dream of every student. Careers N’ Options Services Pvt Limited (CNOSPL) help achieve this dream for countless students.

GENEVA—The second round of a World Health Organization “pulse survey“ reveals that over one year into the COVID-19 pandemic, substantial disruptions persist, with about 90% of countries still reporting one or more disruptions to essential health services, marking no substantial global change since the first survey conducted in the summer of 2020.

Within countries, however, the magnitude and extent of disruptions has generally decreased. In 2020, countries reported that, on average, about half of essential health services were disrupted.In the first 3 months of 2021, however, they reported progress, with just over one third of services now being disrupted.

Overcoming disruptions

Countries have been working to mitigate disruptions. Many have now stepped up communications efforts to inform the public about changes to service delivery and provide advice about ways to safely seek health care. They are also triaging to identify and better meet the most urgent patient needs.

More than half the countries consulted say they have recruited additional staff to boost the health workforce; redirected patients to other care facilities; and switched to alternative methods to delivering care, such as providing more home-based services, multi-month prescriptions for treatments, and increasing the use of telemedicine.

In addition, WHO and its partners have been helping countries to adapt their processes so they can better respond to the challenges being placed on their health systems; strengthen primary health care, and advance universal health coverage.

“It is encouraging to see that countries are beginning to build back their essential health services, but much remains to be done,” says Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director General, WHO. “The survey highlights the need to intensify efforts and take additional steps to close gaps and strengthen services. It will be especially important to monitor the situation in countries that were struggling to provide health services before the pandemic.“

Persisting causes of disruptions

Countries are still having to make important decisions when responding to COVID-19 that may negatively affect access to care for other health issues. Redeployment of staff to provide COVID-19 relief and temporary closures of health facilities and services continue.

Although they may have taken on new staff, 66% of countries continue to report health workforce-related reasons as the most common causes of service disruptions. Supply chains are also still disrupted in nearly one third of countries, affecting the availability of essential medicines, diagnostics, and the PPE needed to safely and effectively provide care.

Communications efforts need to be further scaled up: more than half of countries report service disruptions due to patients not seeking care and because of community mistrust and fears of becoming infected.

Meanwhile, 43% of countries cite financial challenges as major causes for disruptions in service utilization. 

As a result, millions of people are still missing out on vital health care. In terms of services, the biggest impact reported by nearly half of countries is on provision of day-to-day primary care to prevent and manage some of the most common health problems. Long-term care for chronic conditions, rehabilitation, and palliative end-of-life care, is also still badly disrupted – severely affecting older people and people living with disabilities.

Potentially life-saving emergency, critical and surgical care interventions are still disrupted in about 20% of countries, reflecting the most immediate indirect consequences of the pandemic. Two thirds of countries also report disruptions in elective surgeries, with accumulating consequences as the pandemic is prolonged.

Among the most extensively affected health services (i.e. those for which more than 40% of countries are reporting disruptions) are those for mental, neurological and substance use disorders; neglected tropical diseases; tuberculosis; HIV and hepatitis B and C; cancer screening, and services for other noncommunicable diseases including hypertension and diabetes; family planning and contraception; urgent dental care; and malnutrition.

Issued ahead of World Immunization Week (which starts 24 April) and World Malaria Day (25 April) the survey reveals that serious gaps also remain in addressing disruptions to services in both these areas. More than one third of countries are still reporting disruptions to immunization services, despite progress in countries reducing disruptions to immunization services in health facilities and “outreach” immunization services by about 20% and 30% respectively compared to 2020. This highlights the need for new and sustained approaches to improving immunization coverage and uptake.

“The COVID-19 pandemic continues to pose serious challenges to global health beyond the impact of the disease itself,” said Henrietta Fore, UNICEF Executive Director. “For children, disruptions to immunization services have serious consequences. As we scale up delivery of COVID-19 vaccines, we have to ensure that this does not come at the cost of essential childhood vaccinations. We cannot allow today’s fight against COVID-19 to undermine our fight against measles, polio or other vaccine preventable illnesses. Prolonged immunization disruptions will have long-term consequences for children’s health. The time to catch up is now.”

Meanwhile, nearly 40% of countries are also reporting disruptions to one or more malaria services. While progress compared to 2020 – with about 10% fewer countries reporting disruptions to malaria diagnosis and treatment and 25-33% fewer countries reporting disruptions to malaria prevention campaigns (including distribution of long-lasting insecticide impregnated bed nets, indoor spraying and seasonal malaria chemoprevention), the reported level of disruption is still significant and needs to be urgently addressed.

WHO will continue to support countries so they can respond to increased strains on health systems and rapidly evolving priorities and needs throughout the course of the pandemic, and to ensure that COVID-19 control strategies are in balance strategies to tackle other health priorities and secure continued access to comprehensive care for everyone, including the most vulnerable.

Key support mechanisms include the ACT-Accelerator, which works to speed up equitable access to COVID-19 vaccines, tests and treatments, and the Strategic Preparedness and Response Plan, which guides actions taken at national, regional, and global levels to tackle COVID-19.

The Organization also remains focused on the delivery of the work it has committed to before the COVID-19 pandemic started. Internally, through the “Boost initiative” and the UHC Partnership, which covers 115 countries, WHO has strengthened its capacity to provide additional support to countries so they can maintain essential health services during the pandemic, and advance progress towards universal health coverage.
