India has an estimated 20.9 lakh people living with HIV. However, nearly 30 -35 percent of these do not know there HIV status. After a person gets infected with HIV, there is a long asymptomatic period of 5-8 years when infected person may not have any symptoms till his immunity goes down significantly and he start getting different opportunistic infection like TB, diarrhoea, fungal infection etc. Hence most of the HIV infected persons present to health system in late stage when immunity is very low and their response to treatment may not be optimal. Also during this long asymptomatic period of 5-8 years, though they are infected but may not be aware of HIV status and are capable of spreading the infection their spouse or others if they continue to indulge unprotected sex.

Early detection of PLHIV is beneficial for patient himself as he can receive timely appropriate treatment including ART as well as for the community to stop further transmission of HIV.

We invite suggestion from community/ NGO/ CBO/ Civil society and public at large their views/ ideas on How to facilitate early detection of People Living with HIV (PLHIV) and put them on ART as soon as possible.

Dear sir, It is very much a growing concern of the country is about the smokers and the people affected by tobacco including children. Govt wants bring policy to sell cigarettes to be sold in packs. But what benefit is going to come out of it? store keepers will sell it in black for higher rates another chance for official to do ride to make some extra amount. But if Govt can increase the tax on tobacco very high there could be some control over it. Please think about it for our smoke free Ind

Sir, I am a qualified Oral Pathologist who has worked extensively with cancer and pre-cancer of the mouth. I have developed a program (in medical terminology, it is called a 'protocol') to de-addict people from all types of tobacco habits, i.e., smoking, chewing, snuffing, etc. habits. The name of my program is called Quit Tobacco Program and it has been adapted to Indian conditions. You can get detailed information at qtpmumbai.com. I'd like to do my bit towards a tobacco free India.

In order to encourage PAPER LESS working in Government as desired by our wonderful Prime Minister in continuation of my earlier suggestions last month in PMO site , it is again requested that e Mail ID's of every Minister,Officers,PSU Authorities,Judicial and for that matter every Authority/Officer of ALL the 3 Pillars of Democracy MUST be ordered to create their official ID and display in WHO's WHO of Govt List in appropriate sites. Even the correspondences should show the ID's. SKBhattacharya

Dear Sir I have following suggestions for your perusal. 1. You are asking all the citizens to involve in clean India program, However when I go to Delhi markets (Lajpat Nagar etc.). I see no dustbins are kept for disposal of waste. you need to go to the root cause, whether people are littering due to habit, or due to unavailability of dustbins. 2. The present education system does not develop a child competent or fit for Make in India. There is a need to change entire education policy.
