    Dr. A.K. Dwivedi’s Campaign Reaches Over 2 Million People

    Indore (Madhya Pradesh) [India], March 19: In a major advancement in preventive healthcare, Indore has witnessed the rise of anaemia awareness as a dynamic grassroots public health movement.

    Dr. Dwivedi, Director & CEO of Advanced Homoeo Health Center & Homoeopathic Medical Research Pvt. Ltd., Indore, and actively associated with Sansad Seva Prakalp Indore, Monthly health magazine Sehat Evam Surat, AYUSH Medical Welfare Foundation, and Advanced Homeopathic Medical Research & Welfare Society,indore has transformed anaemia awareness into a large-scale social mission focused on prevention, education, and community participation.

    Campaign Launch and Outreach Expansion

    The campaign was formally inaugurated on 17 February 2026 by the Hon’ble Governor of Madhya Pradesh, Shri Mangubhai Patel, at Devi Ahilya Vishwavidyalaya (DAVV), Indore. The event witnessed the presence of thousands of students, healthcare professionals, and citizens.

    Two specially designed Anaemia Awareness Rath mobile units were deployed across the Indore district, delivering door-to-door health education, counseling, and awareness services. The campaign ensured direct household engagement, with particular emphasis on women, children, and vulnerable populations, while communicating scientifically validated information in a simple and accessible manner.

    Confronting a Silent Public Health Burden

It encompasses multiple forms, including iron deficiency anaemia, megaloblastic anaemia, aplastic anaemia, hemolytic anaemia, and inherited conditions such as sickle cell anaemia and thalassemia.

    Health experts emphasize that anaemia is not merely a hematological disorder but a systemic condition that affects physical stamina, cognitive function, immune response, and maternal health, thereby reducing overall quality of life.

  • The Architect of Strategy: An Exclusive Interview with Executive General Manager Shalin Peter

    The Architect of Strategy: An Exclusive Interview with Executive General Manager Shalin Peter

    In this interview, Shalin Peter speaks about navigating a career that moves between the rigid frameworks of defense manufacturing and the fluid demands of global public relations. He reflects on building operational depth within regulated systems, translating technical expertise into strategy, and sustaining relevance across industries where credibility, precision, and execution define survival.

    Q: You currently lead operations within a highly specialized sector, specifically a small arms manufacturing unit that also develops new products for defense purposes. Could you elucidate the foundational days of this organization?

    Shalin Peter: The manufacturing company was officially launched in 2018. I have been closely associated with the enterprise since its early stages. Building a sustainable operational matrix in this specific industrial landscape necessitates a profound understanding of bureaucratic structures. A highly significant portion of my early and ongoing responsibilities involves liaisoning with the Central as well as State Government offices. This diplomatic navigation is particularly concentrated in the areas of firearms marking and physical security. One must possess strong interpersonal skills and communication to successfully manage these relationships.

    Q: Before ascending to your current executive position, you navigated a fascinating dual mandate within the organization. You previously worked as the PR and Marketing Head and also as the Senior Technical manager. How do these seemingly disparate domains intersect, particularly when dealing with specialized tactical equipment?

    Shalin Peter: The intersection lies in the rigorous application of empirical data and technical comprehension. In my technical capacity, I oversaw the small arms provided to specialized military personnel. This required intense collaboration for the transfer of technology in metallurgy and assault rifles directly with elite domestic defense units. To market these advancements, one must first deeply understand the metallurgical science underpinning them. My communication and feedback from highly specialized tactical commandos were well appreciated, proving that technical precision and clear communication are inextricably linked. My overarching objective has always been building strategy for growth and providing effective market solutions.

    Q: Your ability to forge connections within the defense sector appears remarkably comprehensive. You operate as a critical communicative conduit between manufacturers and the end-users.

    Shalin Peter: Precisely. A core component of my mandate is networking between defence officials and our enterprise for small arms. This encompassing portfolio includes service pistols, air guns for sports and assault rifles, alongside long range artillery. This networking is not confined to domestic borders; I have successfully facilitated alliances for sales with security forces in Africa, Europe, Asia and Australia. Furthermore, I proactively initiated requests from abroad for a research grant dedicated to long range weaponry. Operating on this global scale requires an unwavering commitment to quality, which is why a major role of mine is to ensure that products adhere to stringent quality and safety measures.

    Q: Staying aligned with global regulations must be a monumental task in the arms sector.

    Shalin Peter: It is an absolute imperative. To maintain comprehensive situational awareness of international regulatory frameworks, I have attended various implementation and effectiveness of small arms control programmes. Additionally, to maintain our market visibility, I have consistently participated in Defence expos organized all over the country.

    Q: Let us pivot to your extensive career as a PR and Marketing Consultant. Your portfolio demonstrates an extraordinary capacity for cross-industry adaptation. How do you approach marketing for consumer-facing brands compared to defense contractors?

    Shalin Peter: The core methodology remains surprisingly consistent. Success relies upon providing extensive research and insights about the market, consumer, competition, and brand position. For instance, I orchestrated initial outdoor promotional campaigns for a major telecommunications provider by providing media solutions for high organic reach after a market research. In the interactive entertainment sector, I managed event coordination for major gaming and entertainment exhibitions, including initiatives for a global video gaming federation and a major interactive software developer. Through these efforts, I generated substantial brand awareness for prominent gaming communities with corporates.

    Q: You possess a distinct talent for large-scale experiential orchestration and infrastructure inauguration. Could you elaborate on your experience in that arena?

    Shalin Peter: Cultivating strong media connections, and planning campaigns and strategies to promote business is fundamental to experiential marketing. I created and curated events for the launch of a major retail and lifestyle mall. Furthermore, I engaged in complex negotiations, liaison and vendor management for a large-scale recreational village property. On a macro-civic level, I handled liaison with the Central Government and multiple State Governments to facilitate major urban beautification for a media analytics and design firm. I also organized the launch of a prominent sports club.

    Q: The luxury, fashion, and high-profile entertainment sectors are notoriously demanding. How have you applied your strategic insights within these domains?

    Shalin Peter: The ability to prioritise and plan effectively is paramount when navigating the complexities of luxury and celebrity management. I have organized vendor management and client liaison fashion shows, notably a major exhibition in collaboration with a premier German automobile manufacturer and a prominent regional motor group. In the entertainment sphere, I have executed celebrity hospitality and management for large-scale music festivals and handled the planning and strategizing for major celebrity concerts. I also managed a publicity campaign for a major hospitality group. This included liaison with luxury suites for celebrities via major domestic film production studios and entertainment conglomerates.

    Q: You have also influenced the technology hardware and publishing sectors.

    Shalin Peter: Yes, solving marketing challenges and creating effective marketing solutions translates across all mediums. I conducted brand awareness and branding placement strategies for major computer peripherals partners. I also managed branding coordination and management for crowd awareness events with a leading graphical processing unit manufacturer. In publishing, I executed the planning and strategic brand placement and advertising for brand awareness for a high-end lifestyle and luxury publication.

    Q: Today, your professional footprint is vast. You maintain your executive role while simultaneously expanding your consultancy across multiple continents.

    Shalin Peter: Currently, I function as a PR and Marketing Consultant operating across India, Thailand, Malaysia, Australia, and Europe. The diversity of the work is deeply fulfilling. Beyond consultancy, I am the Founder & Promoter of a digital magazine & events entity. My commitment to operational excellence has also allowed me to serve as an official vendor for a monolithic domestic entertainment corporation and an ultra-luxury British automotive manufacturer. Whether navigating government bureaus or global brand launches, meticulous research and strategic networking remain the cornerstones of my professional architecture.

  • Ryan Pinto on Building Good Human Beings: Why Value-Based Education Matters in Today’s World

    Ryan Pinto on Building Good Human Beings: Why Value-Based Education Matters in Today’s World

    Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], March 19: In today’s fast-changing world, education is often measured by marks, rankings, and university placements. While academic excellence certainly opens doors, I strongly believe that the true purpose of education goes far beyond report cards. It is about shaping character, nurturing empathy, and preparing young individuals not just for careers, but for life.

    “In a world driven by competition and constant change, knowledge alone is not enough. It is integrity, empathy, resilience, and a strong moral compass that truly prepare a child for life. At Ryan International, we believe education must shape character first, because values guide decisions long after textbooks are closed.”

    At the Ryan Group of Institutions, our philosophy has always been clear: we must build good human beings before we build successful professionals. Knowledge evolves, industries transform, and technology advances at an unprecedented pace. Yet integrity, resilience, compassion, and respect remain timeless qualities that define lasting success.

    Value-based education is not a separate subject in our schools it is embedded into the very culture of learning. From reflective morning assemblies to classroom discussions that encourage ethical thinking, we consistently reinforce the importance of moral clarity and responsible decision-making. However, values cannot remain theoretical. They must be experienced and practiced.

    Our students actively engage in social outreach initiatives that connect them to real-world challenges. Across campuses, they organize donation drives for underprivileged communities, visit old-age homes and orphanages, and participate in literacy and awareness campaigns. Environmental responsibility is deeply ingrained in our approach. Tree plantation drives, sustainability campaigns, and student-led environmental initiatives reflect our commitment to a greener future. Exposure connected to global environmental conversations, including platforms aligned with the Conference of the Parties (COP), helps students understand that sustainability is not optional it is a shared global responsibility.

    Many of these initiatives have earned recognition and accolades at national and international levels. While we are proud of these achievements, what truly matters is the transformation we see in our students a deeper sense of empathy, gratitude, and accountability.

    Leadership development is another pillar of our educational framework. Through structured Student Councils and peer mentorship systems, students learn responsibility early in life. Platforms such as the India International Model United Nations (INMUN) empower them to debate global issues, practice diplomacy, and think critically. Large-scale student-led events like the International Children’s Festival of Performing Arts (ICFPA) provide hands-on experience in coordination, collaboration, and execution.

    Our commitment to global exposure further broadens perspectives. Learning opportunities associated with institutions such as NASA inspire innovation, scientific curiosity, and discipline. These experiences reinforce that leadership is not about authority, but about service and responsibility.

    Sports, performing arts, and co-curricular activities complement academic rigor by building resilience, teamwork, and confidence. On the sports field, students learn perseverance. In the arts, they discover creativity and self-expression. Together, these experiences shape balanced individuals grounded in strong values.

    Examinations may assess academic understanding, but life tests character. As educators, our responsibility is not merely to prepare children for competitive exams, but to prepare them to lead ethical, meaningful lives.

    When knowledge is guided by integrity and empathy, it creates individuals who are not only successful, but significant. At Ryan International, we remain committed to this mission because when character leads, success follows with purpose.

  • Capitol Hospital Urology Experts Advise: Don’t Ignore the Signs of Prostate Enlargement

    Capitol Hospital Urology Experts Advise: Don’t Ignore the Signs of Prostate Enlargement

    New Delhi [India], March 19: As men age, their bodies go through many natural changes. One such change, often less spoken about, is the enlargement of the prostate gland. This condition, known as Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), is extremely common, especially in men above 50 years of age. While the term may sound complicated, it simply means a non-cancerous (benign) growth of the prostate.
    • Awareness is the first step towards better men’s health
    • It is not cancer, but timely care can improve quality of  life.
    • Most men over 50 face it — learn the signs and seek timely care !

    Doctors at Capitol Hospital frequently see men experiencing urinary symptoms related to prostate enlargement. With timely diagnosis and modern treatment facilities available at Capitol Hospital, most patients are able to manage their symptoms effectively and maintain a good quality of life.

    What is the Prostate?

    The prostate is a small gland, about the size of a walnut, located just below the bladder. Its main job is to produce fluid that helps nourish and transport sperm. However, as men grow older, the gland often increases in size. When this happens, it can press against the urinary passage (urethra) and cause troublesome symptoms.

    Common Symptoms of Prostate Enlargement

    Men with BPH may notice changes in their urination habits, such as:

    • Frequent urge to pass urine, especially at night
    • Weak or interrupted urine flow
    • Feeling that the bladder is not completely empty
    • Difficulty in starting urination
    • Dribbling at the end of urination

    These symptoms may start gradually but can worsen over time if ignored.

    Is it Cancer?

    The good news is that prostate enlargement in BPH is not cancer. However, the symptoms can significantly affect daily life and sleep quality. Ignoring the condition may sometimes lead to complications like repeated urine infections, bladder stones, or kidney problems. That is why timely consultation with a urologist is important.

    Diagnosis and Treatment

    A urologist can usually diagnose BPH with a simple consultation, examination, and some basic tests. At Capitol Hospital, advanced diagnostic facilities and experienced urology specialists help in identifying the condition early and guiding patients towards the most suitable treatment.

    Treatment depends on the severity of symptoms:

    • Lifestyle changes – reducing evening fluid intake, limiting caffeine and alcohol, and regular exercise.
    • Medications – to relax the prostate muscles or reduce its size.
    • Minimally invasive or surgical options – for men with severe symptoms not relieved by medicines. Modern treatments are safe, effective and even with advancements by use of laser these operations are without any incision or suture or wound on patients body, thus helping men return to normal life quickly.

    Advanced Care and Expertise

    At Capitol Hospital, the Department of Urology is equipped with advanced diagnostic facilities and modern treatment options for prostate-related conditions. Specialists at the hospital regularly manage cases of prostate enlargement using minimally invasive and laser-based procedures, which help reduce hospital stay and enable faster recovery for patients.

    “Many patients believe that urinary problems are simply a part of aging and cannot be treated,” says Dr. Vikrant Mahajan. “But with the availability of modern medicines and advanced surgical techniques, most men can experience significant relief and improved quality of life.”

    Why Awareness Matters

    Many men feel shy or embarrassed to discuss urinary problems. They may consider these issues a “normal part of aging” and delay seeking help. Awareness is the first step. BPH is common, treatable, and nothing to be ashamed of. Talking openly about it and consulting a doctor early can prevent complications and improve quality of life.

    Take-Home Message

    If you are a man over 50 and notice changes in your urination habits, do not ignore them. Prostate enlargement is common, but timely care makes a big difference. Experts at Capitol Hospital emphasize that early consultation and proper treatment can help men stay healthy and active for years to come.

  • GTE 2026: Ultimate Marketplace for Garment Technology and Complete Ecosystem for Apparel Production

    GTE 2026: Ultimate Marketplace for Garment Technology and Complete Ecosystem for Apparel Production

    New Delhi [India], March 19: India’s garment manufacturing sector is entering a decisive phase of technological transformation, and leading this momentum is the 39th edition of the Garment Technology Expo (GTE) 2026, scheduled from 20–23 March 2026 at the India Expo Centre & Mart, Delhi–NCR. With a legacy of 38 successful editions and more than 25 years of industry trust, GTE has established itself as one of Southeast Asia’s most influential B2B platforms for garment manufacturing technologies.

    Supported by the Ministry of Textiles and the Ministry of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises, GTE 2026 aims to help garment manufacturers modernise production lines, adopt automation and strengthen global competitiveness. As India moves towards its goal of building a $350-billion textile and apparel economy by 2030, the expo will showcase advanced machinery, digital manufacturing systems and next-generation solutions from over 20 countries, enabling manufacturers to upgrade productivity, precision and scale.

    A major highlight of the exhibition is its co-location with Lace & Trims Show 2026, a dedicated sourcing platform for essential garment components. From laces, trims, labels, fasteners, embellishments and accessories to allied inputs, the show will bring together key suppliers and manufacturers of critical production materials. Together, GTE and Lace & Trims Show create a comprehensive marketplace covering the entire garment manufacturing value chain, enabling buyers to explore the latest materials, sourcing solutions and design innovations shaping apparel production.

    Adding valuable industry insight, trend forecasts in apparel production will be showcased by the National Institute of Fashion Technology, offering manufacturers guidance on emerging design directions, production practices and evolving market demands.

    The exhibition will feature a wide spectrum of technologies, including sewing and embroidery machines, cutting, spreading and laying equipment, digital textile printing systems, CAD/CAM software, dyeing, finishing and laundry technologies, testing equipment and quality control solutions. Live demonstrations and technology launches will help manufacturers evaluate innovations that improve efficiency, quality and cost optimisation.

    Commenting on the industry outlook, Dr. Rakesh Kumar said that the Indian garment industry is witnessing increasing momentum in technology adoption, driven by infrastructure development, policy support and growing global demand. Platforms such as GTE provide manufacturers with the opportunity to explore advanced solutions and strengthen their competitiveness in international markets. GTE is about empowering Indian factories with the right technologies and insights to enhance productivity, improve quality and remain competitive on a global stage.

    Shri Inderjit Singh Sahni, Founder & Managing Director, Garment Technology Expo (GTE), shared his thoughts, saying,“When Garment Technology Expo was conceived in 2001, the vision was clear—to bring world-class garment manufacturing technology within India’s reach. At a time when discovering the latest innovations meant travelling overseas, GTE created a trusted platform where global technology leaders could showcase their solutions live for Indian manufacturers. GTE has steadily evolved over the years. What began as a machinery-focused exhibition has today transformed into a comprehensive industry platform. Our focus now goes beyond showcasing equipment—we aim to enable automation, sustainability, digitalisation and future-ready manufacturing.

    Echoing this perspective, Rathi Sahni highlighted that rapid advancements in automation, digitalisation and smart production technologies are redefining garment manufacturing.

  • SOMANY Ceramics Continues to Build Upon Its Waste Tile Reuse Initiative on Global Recycling Day 2026

    SOMANY Ceramics Continues to Build Upon Its Waste Tile Reuse Initiative on Global Recycling Day 2026

    New Delhi [India], March 18: On the occasion of Global Recycling Day, SOMANY Ceramics is looking back on a sustainability-led initiative that brought together manufacturing realities and design thinking in a meaningful way. The company’s waste tile campaign, undertaken over the last year, has grown into a thoughtful collaboration with academic institutions, demonstrating how tile waste can be reimagined through creative intervention.

    The initiative began with a practical challenge. Broken and unused tiles generated across manufacturing units and retail touchpoints were accumulating over time. Instead of treating this as residual waste, SOMANY chose to redirect the material into an experimental design exercise by partnering with nearby architecture and design institutes, enabling the utilisation and recycling of tile waste available at local dealer and stock points.

    Across campuses, the outcomes manifested in diverse forms. Over 3,000+ students across 40 institutes—such as Manipal University (Rajasthan), Amity University (Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh), KIIT School of Architecture and Planning (Odisha), Sushant University (Haryana), Indian Institute of Art and Design (Delhi), and the Institute of Indian Interior Designers (Hyderabad)—participated in the campaign, spanning North, South, East, and West India. The engagement was intentionally structured as a hands-on experience, enabling students to interact directly with discarded material and reimagine its potential beyond conventional applications. Students created murals, installations, and functional design interventions that became integral to their immediate environments. Many of these works continue to reside within campus spaces, subtly reinforcing a culture of reuse and embedding sustainability into everyday interactions.

    In total, more than 8,100 sq. ft. of waste tile was repurposed through the initiative, resulting in 12 tons of tiles being diverted from landfills and an estimated reduction of 4.8 tons of CO₂ emissions—significantly lowering the overall carbon footprint. What distinguishes this achievement is not merely the scale of material recovery, but the underlying philosophy. The tiles were not industrially reprocessed or downcycled; instead, they were used in their unaltered state. This approach underscores principles of resource circularity, low embodied carbon design, and material-led innovation—encouraging students to design with imperfections, irregularities, and constraints, and to transform these limitations into drivers of creativity and environmental impact reduction.

    The process itself served as a critical learning catalyst. Workshops at each institution brought together faculty and the SOMANY team, blending technical expertise with creative exploration. This provided students with a rare opportunity to engage with materials in a tactile, real-world context, bridging academic learning with practical execution.

    The initiative effectively translated sustainability from an abstract concept into a lived experience—tangible, immediate, and transformative.

    Speaking on the initiative, Mr. Anshuman Chakravarty, Vice President & Head – Marketing & Communication, Somany Ceramics Ltd., said, “Waste in our industry has traditionally been seen as an operational byproduct. We see it differently—as an untapped resource. Our waste tile initiative reflects a conscious shift from linear consumption to circular thinking, where what we discard today can become the resource of tomorrow. By reimagining how materials are valued, reused, and reintegrated, we are not only reducing environmental impact but also setting a new benchmark for responsible manufacturing. Our effort is also to sensitise the next generation, encouraging them to engage with sustainability not as an abstract idea, but as a lived practice and to empower them to become ambassadors of a more responsible, circular future.”

    As Global Recycling Day brings focus to sustainable practices across industries, this effort serves as a reminder that meaningful change often begins with small, deliberate steps. In this case, it was about recognising the value in what already exists and finding ways to extend its life through design, collaboration, and intent.
