The India Saga Saga |

The 11th round of India-China military talks to be held this month is expected to record forward movement in the disengagement of armies in the Gogra-Hot Springs area of East Ladakh. The decisions were made during the conversations on progress made by the two sides during the recent meeting of the Working Mechanism for Consultation and Coordination (WMCC) on border affairs. 

After nine months of continuous standoff, the two military troops reached an agreement on disengagement of troops in the north and south banks of Pangong lake that mandated both sides withdraw troops in a “phased, coordinated and verifiable” manner. The movement began on February 10. The disengagement process in Pangong lake areas concluded in line with an arrangement between the two sides. 

After the meeting, a joint India-China statement said that the two sides had a “candid and in-depth exchange of views” on the issues on the Line of Actual Control (LAC) and “agreed to follow the important consensus of their state leaders”. The statement also underlined the commitment to continue the discussion and “push for a mutually acceptable resolution of the remaining issues in a steady and orderly manner”.

The PLA has dug deep into the mountain faces and parked rocket regiments inside to make sure that they escape any attack at the hands of the Indian Air Force in the worst-case scenario. The Chinese airbases that have said to build blast pens include Hotan, Gar Gunsa, Lhasa, Yarkand, and Kashgar airbases.

Build future of cloud computing with Insight Business Machines

The India Saga Saga |

In today’s ever-changing, hyper-competitive landscape, businesses need to offer superior flexibility and speed in order to ensure operational success and satisfy customer demand, this calls for a cloud evolution. Sticking to rigid solution that cannot scale or deliver services at the speed which customers needs evolve can cause businesses to fail. The cloud computing revolution has completely transformed over the last decade or so. More and more firms are increasingly reliant on cloud services and data centers, simply for their day to day operations. Cloud platforms have the resources to globally scale up/down to meet demands instantaneously, creating unlimited opportunities for businesses and their customers.

But having a multiple cloud infrastructure has its disadvantage, the wider range of cloud services an enterprise uses, the more complex it gets to manage them, thus failure to manage system adequately can increase the cost of using such system and cloud affect the business agility. Nearly three-fourths (73%) of respondents reported that they are moving some applications off the public cloud and back on premises, These moves underscore, in part, enterprises’ need for hybrid cloud’s flexibility in allowing them to adapt their infrastructures based on their fluctuating requirements. App mobility is critical, it is essential or desirable to be able to easily move applications between cloud environments. The best way to mitigate the problem is to have a hybrid cloud where the long term and predictable workload can be on premise and dynamic workload can remain on public cloud with a flexibility to move them across. As Insight Business Machines we can help you build a uniform fabric on premise (private) and public cloud like AWS and Azure to have a single pane glass of movement and management.

Insight Business Machines Cloud Service enables you to have access to the technologies and application which are acknowledged with better and meaningful end customer experience. We design Cloud services to help organisation make right choices in maximizing returns from their cloud investments. Our understanding of legacy infrastructure and application allows us to deploy and manage solution that coexist on cloud.

“Takedown content that demeans women”, Ravi Shankar Prasad

The India Saga Saga |

New Delhi: Ravi Shankar Prasad, Union Minister for Electronics and Information Technology, notified the Parliament on Thursday that any content online that violates the dignity of women needs to be taken down by all social media intermediaries within 24 hours. 

“The new intermediary guidelines clearly state that if the dignity of women is sought to be compromised, namely her nude or morphed photograph is displayed, the social media intermediary needs to remove it within 24 hours,” Ravi Prasad said. 

According to the new guidelines, first reported by Hindustan Times on February 25, the intermediary shall “within twenty-four hours from the receipt of a complaint made by an individual or any person on his behalf… in relation to any content which is prima facie in the nature of any material which exposes the private area of such individual, shows such individual in full or partial nudity or shows or depicts such individual in any sexual act or conduct, or is in the nature of impersonation in an electronic form, including artificially morphed images of such individual, take all reasonable and practicable measures to remove or disable access to such content which is hosted, stored, published or transmitted by it.”

The government notified three-tier self-regulatory guidelines for the first time on February 26. Intermediaries had a maximum of three months to comply with the same. Significant social media intermediaries, who have over five million users, have to appoint a compliance officer. At the apex of the grievance redress system is an inter-ministerial committee that will be headed by an official from the ministry of information and broadcasting. 

Keeping in mind the content gradation that goes on all social media platforms, Ravi Shankar Prasad told that the government will not interfere. He added that the government welcomes dissent on social media, which has nearly 1.4 billion users in India.

Experts call for labelling of processed food to check disease burden

The India Saga |

In view of the rising incidence of high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity among Indians, which aggravates the COVID- 19 risk among people suffering from these morbidities, health experts have called for introducing front-of-package labels (FOPL) on ultra-processed food items to check non-communicable diseases (NCDs).

Addressing a virtual media round table on “Why Getting FOPL Label Right is Critical for India’s Obesity and Diabetes Epidemic’’ here on Thursday, the global experts said that FOPL warning labeling would reduce disease burden and promote healthier lives by enabling consumers to identify in a quick, clear and effective way, products which are high in sugar, sodium, saturated fats, trans-fats and total fats that are responsible for the high NCD burden. The media roundtable was organized by Consumer Voice and Global Health Advocacy Incubator. 

      India is nearing a health flashpoint with 135 million obese people, the experts pointed out. Nearly 5.8 million people or 1 in 4 Indians are at a risk of dying from an NCD before they reach the age of 70. Disease burden of NCDs increased from 30% ‘disability-adjusted life years’ (DALYs) in 1990 to 55% in 2016, with deaths due to these conditions increasing from 37% in 1990 to 61% in 2016. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) accounts for at least 27% of NCD deaths. Untreated and uncontrolled hypertension contributes to an estimated 1.6 million deaths annually in India – 57% of these deaths related to stroke and 24% related to coronary heart disease. India is also fast becoming a diabetes and cancer hotspot. This crisis is being further aggravated by the COVID-19 pandemic, as persons living with NCDs face a greater risk of becoming severely ill or dying from COVID-19.

    All of these conditions such as high blood pressure, high fasting blood sugar levels and obesity are closely linked to unhealthy diets, and an excessive intake of sugars, total fats, saturated fats, trans-fats and sodium. In turn, the excessive intake of these “nutrients of public health concern” is largely driven by the widespread availability, affordability and promotion of processed and ultra-processed food products with unhealthy nutritional profiles. Reports indicate that the COVID-19 pandemic generated a unique opportunity for the food and beverage industry to thrive in low- to middle-income countries and expand their market of unhealthy, ultra-processed foods and sugary drinks.

In 2018 the Food Safety Standards Authority India (FSSAI) had published draft regulation for FOPL which was subsequently withdrawn for further deliberation. In 2019 December, FSSAI delinked FOPL from general labelling regulations and is currently seeking consultations with civil society, industry and nutrition experts for a viable model for India.

    Dr Chandrakant Pandav, president, Indian Coalition for the Control of Iodine Deficiency Disorders (ICCIDD), warned that there is no time is to be lost as India is facing silent emergency due to very high incidence of diabetes and obesity. To check the emergency, FOPL is very important. “It is clear as day that our food environment needs to change drastically if we are to reverse the health crisis and safe guard our future generations. Even as we move to fortify our food, arming people with information regarding nutrients like high concentration of salt, sugar and fats, is an equally important strategy.”

   A strong front-of-package label is one of the most efficient tools of influencing consumer behaviour to alter dietary choices and reduce their vulnerability to NCDs, according to Dr Barry Popkin, the W. R. Kenan Junior distinguished professor of nutrition at the University of North Carolina Gillings School of Global Public Health. Sharing his experience from an investigation in multiple countries, Dr Popkin said: “In our ongoing evaluations we have found that all countries which have adopted warning label system of FOPL that are easy to interpret, have succeeded in reducing consumption of the most unhealthy ultra-processed foods and beverages. As suggested by available evidence, this is one of the most effective approaches to preventing obesity and nutrition-related NCDs like diabetes and hypertension. People need to understand clearly and simply what is in the food that they are buying. Food labels have to interpret the nutrition information for consumers across age, income and literacy levels.”

Dr Rachita Gupta of WHO SEARO shared WHO nutrient profile model applicable in Indian context.  FOPL works best when it is made mandatory and applies to all packaged products, the label is interpretative, simplistic and readily visible, guided by a strong nutrient profile model, she said.

 Underscoring the importance of enabling consumer choice, Ashim Sanyal, COO, Consumer VOICE, an NGO working in this field, talked about the difficulty of making a choice when it comes to buying food off the shelf. “While at the grocery shop or supermarket consumers faced with a variety of choices, take their decisions in a few seconds. Labels have to influence diet choices within that window of time. FSSAI has taken an important step towards making our food systems healthier by capping the content of trans- fats. It is time now to set threshold for HFSS foods and to develop a labelling system that shares that information most effectively.”

Vandana Shah, Regional Director, Global Health Advocacy Incubator drew attention to the momentum on FOPL warning policies building across the world. “India can join the growing list of countries that are realising the potential of a strong FOPL to safeguard the lives of their people. Warning labels is a key tool in our fight against obesity and diabetes. India, with its fast growing food industry and diverse demographics, could lead the way for a regional roadmap, by picking a labelling system that best guides consumers towards the healthiest choice.”

Unilever drops the word ‘Normal’ from its product packaging

The India Saga Saga |

Unilever, as a part of its positive beauty initiative, has recently reported that it will not utilize the word ‘normal’ in the advertising and bundling of its products. A report directed by the multinational conveyed that seven of every ten individuals accept that the word ‘normal’ utilized in product packaging and promotions has a negative effect on people. Understanding the critical effects it had, Unilever decided to make it a more positive space in its commercial arena.

Established over 100 years ago, Unilever is a multinational consumer goods company that provides fast-moving consumer goods. Its product categories include savory, dressings, spreads, ice cream, beverages, personal care, and home care. 

As far as the beauty industry is concerned, the word ‘normal’ is used to portray skin that isn’t especially dry or sleek and is unaffected by conditions like skin inflammation or dermatitis. Seeing the word on products and in ads frequently causes individuals to feel barred and unfortunate, as it proposes that skin and hair outside of the standard portrayal are unusual. 

With the move, the organization plans to make a more comprehensive vision of beauty by challenging age-old damaging ideals. Furthermore, the organization has sworn that it will at this point don’t carefully alter an individual’s body shape, size, extent, or skin tone across its advertising. 

While these are simply little advances, they cause extraordinary effects. It’s astounding to realize that brands are finally stepping up to take responsibility for the way they make people feel. As Unilever takes a step in to make a change, it could be thought of as a step towards a revolution. Here’s to a more comprehensive, less unfair future!
