Much deserved recognition for the ASHAs - farishtas of the last mile who prop up the Indian health system! Hope we can formalise the work they do, bring about pay parity, job security and career growth for the million #bravehearts who go beyond the call of duty.

Ques 6.
With 40 per cent of the sample population studied by LASI in 2021 found to be pre-hypertensive, there is a likelihood that the disease burden will rise in the coming years unless robust action is taken. How will that impact the future of our country?

"You know, between 1765 and 1938, the British Isles stole £45 trillion from India. When we threw the British out, our literacy rate was 13%. Our landscapes were destroyed. You made us coal-dependent. And now you dare to condescend to us."

Delhi lockdown has left countless people penniless and hungry. We have been providing daily meals to more than 200 in South Delhi since May 1. Cobblers, tutors, domestic help, gardeners, barbers – unaccounted victims of the pandemic. Chip in if you can. @saugatam @urmiladg
