Great work it was like a documentary!

[Dr Kamlesh Darji @DrKamleshDarji1]

After spending 1 decade in medicine I can confirm that weak doctors believe in competition, and the best doctors believe in collaboration.
Weak doctors hide notes, avoid teaching, feel insecure when juniors grow, and panic when someone smarter enters the room.
Great doctors discuss cases openly, share protocols, teach unconditionally, include in research, ask doubts without ego, and celebrate good clinicians around them.
Medicine is too vast for one brain, one branch, or one ego to master alone.
The best ICU outcomes, tumor boards, surgeries, diagnoses, and research papers are almost always team achievements.
A good physician needs a sharp radiologist.
A surgeon needs stat guidance on margins and lymph node status from pathologist.
An oncologist needs molecular biology, pathology, nuclear medicine, radiology, and critical care working together.
People don’t care whose ego won inside the hospital - they care whether their mother survived.
The day doctors stop seeing each other as threats and start acting like allies, medicine becomes powerful again.

Bad news. Fake ORS ban has been paused by the Delhi high court.

ORSL has been allowed to sell 180 crore of their stock first. ORSL sells at 45 rupees per pack, so basically they want to sell 4 crore (180/45) fake ORS packs.

These fake products have up to 10 times more sugar than real ORS, and can be dangerous for kids suffering from diarrhea.

I request all Indians to unite and support @dr_sivaranjani
in the fight against fake ORS.

Please share this across all platforms so that we can put public pressure to not have any fake ORS sold.

MEET THE HEROES OF THE NATIONAL TASK FORCE

When a Rape in a government hospital ( #RGKAR) shook the nation,
the Supreme Court trusted these intellectuals to ensure doctors’ safety.

They said -“No extra security needed just trained security personnel!

They rejected the Central Protection Act.

👉Today, another sister is raped in #Durgapur , near her own medical college campus,
while doctors continue to face daily attacks and brutality.

Where are those intellectuals now?
Busy collecting their healthcare awards and giving lectures on “empathy”? #medtwitter

#ZubeenGarg Assam lost its last icon.

An Obituary: Zubeen Garg (1972–2025)

With the passing of Zubeen Garg, Assam has lost not just a beloved artist but the last Assamese icon of this millennium. Icons are born when history and circumstance collide to make one individual the face of a people, their longings, their griefs, and their joys. After Bhupen Hazarika, it was only Zubeen who carried that impossible burden. He was not merely a singer—he was a phenomenon, an attitude, a bridge between the old soul of Assam and its restless new generation.

Zubeen came at a time when Assam was bruised and fragmented, yearning for voice and visibility. His music, his raw irreverence, his stubborn independence gave people something to rally around. He sang for the silences, for the streets, for the river islands, and for those who had lost faith that their language and culture could ever find mass resonance again.

He was a contradiction—fragile yet fearless, unpredictable yet dependable in the way only true artists are. He could make the air tremble with his voice in an intimate hall, or roar like the Brahmaputra before lakhs in an open ground. His presence was never just performance—it was communion.

After Zubeen, there will be singers, celebrities, influencers. Some will have immense popularity. Some may even become national names. But they will not be icons in the way Zubeen was. The age of icons has ended because icons are not manufactured; they are born of cultural turning points, of shared hardship, of collective memory. Assam will love many artists in the years to come, but the singular electricity, the embodiment of a people’s heartbeat—that chapter has closed with him.

For those of us who lived in Zubeen’s time, he will remain a reminder that Assam could still dream in its own voice. For those who come later, he will be a myth, a legend retold in songs and stories. For his family and loved ones, an irreplaceable absence. For Assam, an eternal icon.

Zubeen Garg was the last Assamese icon of this millennium. His music will echo long after the microphones fall silent, because he gave us not just songs, but a sense of who we were.

Modern medicine is the sole descendant of all the indigenous medicine systems from all over the world.

How?

The science of medicine evolved simultaneously in various civilizations across Earth.

A few centuries ago, fueled by naval maritime achievements, as the world started to globalize,

Ayurveda from India,
Unani from the Arab world,
ancient Chinese medicine,
medicine of Africa and the Americas,

all of these cultures of healing met, shook hands, gave and took, learnt from each other, and then in a united fashion, gave birth to the medical sciences of today.

But there were some serious drawbacks:

- no systematic peer review,
- no clinical trials, and
- no molecular-level research.

All these modalities are the most essential components of modern-day healing,

called evidence-based medicine,

which was seriously lacking in the times of old.

The medicine taught in mainstream medical schools, therefore, is the answer improvement on the tradition of indigenous systems, aided by advances to detect disease and drug at the most molecular of levels.

This fact has sadly not penetrated into the psyche of the masses.

For example,
extracts from the bark of the Cinchona tree in South America,
and the flower of Artemisia from China,
are now the first line drugs for the treatment of malaria.

The key molecule was extracted from these two plants and is now synthesized in labs and used as Quinine and Artemisin analogues respectively.

Scientific advances in physics and chemistry propelled further research into medicine too.

It is this scientific temper that led to the development of the anti-hypertensive (blood pressure-lowering) class of drugs called ACE-inhibitors, by observing the crashing blood pressures of the victims of the Lancehead viper, Bothrops jararaca. Captopril and family.

The venom of the Gila monster, known to decrease blood sugar levels, gave us exenatide for diabetes. We have now evolved to semaglutide and tirzepatide. Familiar names?

Therefore, not every drug we take, or every surgical procedure done today, has got a history spanning millenia. Especially the anti-cancer drugs, most of which were originally synthesized in the 20th century.

So which system do they belong to..?

And what about the modern fields of anaesthesiology and radiology? Who is coming forward to stake claim on them?

Therefore, going back to those ancient and obsolete ways to heal yourselves is like reversing the flow of human progress in the field of medicine, and negating centuries-worth of efforts put by countless and nameless heroes of humanity.

In medical-student parlance, it would be similar to living in the era of the 21st edition of Harrison’s Principles of Internal Medicine, and still referring to the minus 1000th edition.

‘Old is Gold’ is a fit saying for life, but doesn't hold true in science.

This ignorance is still prevalent with the continuous usage of the term ‘allopathy’. This derogatory word was propounded by the practitioners of homeopathy, to distinguish themselves from the most modern of medical sciences.

Because, we are not allopathic doctors. There is only one name to the science that we practice, and it is the science of

‘modern medicine’.

We are practitioners of a tradition that began and was refined by Hippocrates, Galen, Charaka, Sushruta, Avicenna, and many other names lost to history,

and right down to Robert Koch, Louis Pasteur, Edward Jenner, William Osler, Santiago Ramon y Cajal and all those Nobel Laureates, who gave their lives to the health of humanity.

The work continues.

This is a long post. If you prefer, you can skip to section B.

The first part is my assurance, especially for the young 40% of India’s population, who grew up without witnessing a war. Share it among yourselves.

A----------A

There’s some pessimism and doubt I’m seeing on my timeline. It’s understandable. The adversaries are skilled in infowar and are making many young Indians feel uncertain and fearful.

Let me assure you, Pakistan is NOT winning the war it has created. No matter how much it escalates and how many Chinas and Turkeys support it.

At most, it will only win a propaganda war for the time being.

I’m saying what I stated above with reason, rationality, and not carried away by nationalism. Trust me on this.

Pakistan now faces only two options:

1) Take the numerous off-ramps offered by India and back off.

2) Or risk losing the war, incurring heavy losses that could lead to its disintegration.

It appears that Pakistan has chosen the latter path. Regardless, it is their decision to self-destruct. India shall support their endeavor.

To those posting like “Did we lose this?” “Did we lose that?” “Are we backing off?” “Will they nuke us?” “Are we suffering losses?” “It’s better we de-escalate!” -

Understand that your doubts are a result of psyops you’ve been subjected to through social and DS run media.

You’re being made to lose hope through the use of fake news and fabricated stories. Don’t be swayed by it. Maintain a strong mind and remain a steadfast supporter of govt and armed forces.

Understand this: War inevitably entails losses. Planes and drones can be destroyed, soldiers can be killed, bases can be attacked, and ships can be hit.

All of these are possible when fighting a large army like Pakistan, backed by powerful forces.

However, it doesn’t immediately mean we feel disillusioned and scared. The end result is what matters.

Please read about the 1971 war and the significant losses India incurred to achieve the breakup of Pakistan.

And stop asking these silly questions and stop running around like headless chickens - helping Pakistani psyops spread Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt in as many Indians as possible.

B----------B

Why will Pakistan suffer a severe defeat if it provokes India to declare a war by escalating?

Here is what you need to know:

India has not yet utilized even 10% of its military capabilities, while Pakistan is already struggling.

India has not even declared a war, yet look at the state of Pakistan. It has to blackout media to conceal its losses.

The economic and military power differential between India and Pakistan is so immense that even with the assistance of other countries, Pakistan won’t survive a declared war by India.

No matter whether it receives a $1 billion or $2 billion bailout, Pakistan cannot survive economically fighting a war if India declares one.

China will support Pakistan with intelligence, supplies, and propaganda, but it won’t go to war with India for Pakistan. The same applies to Turkey.

Although the US is calling for peace and acting like it’s supporting Pakistan too, the US admin seems to be on India’s side.

The anti-India USDS is now weakened and only operates in the media (Ex: CNN) / international orgs (Ex: IMF) domain. It's not a big threat.

In my opinion, the US wants India to complete the task of weakening Pakistan militarily, as it has been fully taken over by China.

If that's not the case, the US would have intervened already to stop any more escalations. Or it will do so soon. Let's see.

In the unlikely scenario that China intervenes fearing Pakistan’s disintegration, the US will also intervene. Trust me on this.

India’s missile defense, ammunition stores, and preparations are sufficient for months of war with China. Pakistan cannot dent this much.

India possesses resources, capabilities, and partners to replenish itself quite rapidly. So stop worrying about these things.

India is always prepared for a two-front war. Therefore, don’t worry about China intensifying its pressure along the LAC, which they may attempt. But we are ready for it.

As I mentioned earlier, China will never engage in a full-scale war with India. Its sole objective is to weaken India using proxies or use small conflicts along the LAC to keep us occupied.

Pakistan’s nuclear threats have become monotonous and predictable now. While they are indeed a threat, we are well-prepared for them.

Even before they launch nukes, we may receive intel and neutralize them. If they do launch, India can still take them out before they hit.

In any case, India’s nuclear response will be so overwhelming that Pakistan will cease to exist immediately.

So, stop being influenced by subtly planted Pakistani propaganda using Indian handles. Stop being plagued by FUD.

Our armed forces have shown remarkable prowess in thwarting thousands of drones, missiles, and PAF attacks on India. This feat is truly exceptional and is under appreciated.

The Indian armed forces have also demonstrated deep penetration into Pakistan, inflicting severe blows to their terrorist and military infrastructure. Truly awe-inspiring, but unrecognized by Indians themselves.

Remember that all you saw was merely a warning and a display of India’s capabilities. Imagine the consequences if India were to declare a full-fledged war.

As I mentioned earlier, Pakistan will panic and de-escalate itself soon. If not, it will lose a war declared by India.
