Kashmir
Kashmir: Blessed yet Deprived.
"Agar Firdaus Ba-Roohe Zameenast Hameenasto Hameenasto Hammenast..."
(If there is heaven on earth, It is Here, it is here, it is here)

The beauty of this land truly cannot be captured by photography nor expressed by poetry. One must visit Kashmir to feel the essence of the mesmerizing topography of this blessed region. The land of saffron fields, cherry blossoms, Maple Trees, peaceful lakes, Crystal clear streams flowing and stunning gardens. No praise seems enough to glorify the beauty of this splendid, natural and superb asset to mother earth.

The region today bears the weight of a terribly chaotic past and the most uncertain future. Nobody really knows or can predict the future of the state that can be the most resourceful and progressive independent state. People live by the day, taking what comes by. The political system here lies in a total shameful condition with the assembly being run by aimless and pointless bunch of goons whose only perspective to amass as much wealth as they can while they remain in power. It really doesn’t matter to them the pathetic life conditions that the common man here lives by. Access to basic amenities such as quality healthcare, healthy education system, robust transport facilities and so on, are far below standards worthy of a mention. Life conditions in this land are so poor that it pains me to say that human life here has no value at all. The state administration being aware of such inert life conditions doesn’t seem to be willing to take notice and act aptly to bring in a general standard above the current. My article here is inspired by my visit to one of the prominent government hospitals of the region known as GB Pant Cantonment General Hospital located at Sonawar, Srinagar.

Please do take time to browse through the pictures that I managed to click of the neonatal intensive care unit that had about 35 + babies kept under incubation for various medical conditions and believe me

    During this clinical rotation, I was able to observe vital sign monitors being used by many of the infants. These vital sign monitors provide a continuous display of the patient’s blood pressure, heart rate, respirations, pulse, as well as oxygen saturations. Incubators and Isolettes were being used by some infants in order to provide and maintain a controlled environment which protects the infant from temperature changes, and the continuous high decibel sound of alarms and ventilators. Isolettes provide controlled temperatures and humidity in order to ensure that a thermo-neutral zone is maintained. Many infants were provided phototherapy due to high levels of bilirubin. Mechanical ventilators were utilized via continuous positive airway pressure…

    There is a fundamental inequality in the way our most vulnerable babies are cared for in the UK. Clinical standards that set out how children and adults should be cared for in intensive care are complied with across the UK as a matter of course. There are similar clinical standards that describe how babies should be cared for in intensive care. These, however, have never been met. There are only a handful of hospitals across the UK that can provide the intensive one nurse to one baby care that our most vulnerable babies need and deserve.…

    The neonatal unit is the part of the hospital that deals with illful infants. Conventional medicine is the ideal type of medicine to use in this field because most babies admitted into the NICU, or neonatal intensive care unit, are newborns. They have not had the time to build up their immune system, so they are susceptible to multiple illnesses. Natalie Ruby, a WHNP, or women health nurse practitioner, agrees that conventional medicine is the best form of medicine to use in this type of situation. Most babies admitted into the NICU are usually admitted because of premature birth, a respiratory difficulty, or aspiration pneumonia. In her experience, “most parents will want anything and everything done whether reasonable or not to save their baby.” Without modern medicine used, most infants will not survive what they are diagnosed with. Short stories from Babble.com show first hand accounts of parents who had to deal with their newborn baby in the NICU. Some show to what their child looks like withs numerous wires and tubes that consume their baby. They talk about their feelings during the time period of which their child is in the NICU. They hated that their baby was in the NICU, and it killed them looking at them so small and sick, but they also recognized that without the use of conventional medicine, their baby would’ve never survived the premature…

    Pakistan is a country which has every aspects of life in it and more on it is the beautiful country in the world It has four climates in it and it has different landscapes in it which is the topic of mine ,now focusing on the greatest landscape of Pakistan called SAIF-UL-MALOOK which is located in the vale of Kaghan .It is the beautiful, cool ,fun and adventure packed spots in the vale of Pakistan, this legendary lake carries a mystic milieu which is refreshing for every soul .the biggest plus point of this lake is that it assessable from all corners of Pakistan which is quiet good for the tourists. I personally called this place a FAIRYLAND .The dazzling green of Danna meadows and the slippery glaciers at tarmac, on the way to Naran and Kaghan is quiet experience. The prince who spotted a mountain fairy bathing in the stream flowing from the lake, and stole her clothes just to tease her but then fell into love with her. The lake is at a distance of six miles from Naran at a height of 10500 ft above sea level, I think. . It’s easily accessible by jeep or by trekking. If you want to trek, you need around two hours. Trekking is real fun. There is huge glacier on the way and crossing it is both adventure and fun. Saif -ul -Malookis one of the beautiful lakes one can imagine to exist on the surface of this earth have no words to describe its beauty,it is surrounded by very lush green huge mountains and this all scenery is quiet much to impress from the beauty of this valley. If anyone will go there. Once can never forget the time that was spent in the company of this enchanting lake. Saif-Ul-Malook is itself is so charming, so luring and so tempting in real that I fall in love with it . There are also some demons too. The thunderstorms, the landslides and the heavy rain though have a romance of their own. It’s a pity there is no proper rest area, no hotel or a guesthouse so I must come back even though I don’t want to (neither the federally…

    The neglect of our natural assets and environment has always led to crisis. Whether it is the Mithi River of Mumbai or Tapi of Surat or the civilisational crises in the past in which the “cradle of civilisation” in the Middle East eventually became a desert, Greece and Turkey were deforested, and the destruction of the American prairie contributed to the Dust Bowl, these are eloquent testimony to such neglect. The once mighty Khmer Empire in Southeast Asia or the small tribes that lived on Easter Island in the Pacific Ocean were consigned to the throes of oblivion only because they so willfully decimated their natural assets and environment. India is endowed with extraordinary natural and civilisational resources. Around the time of our Independence, the American scholar Kingsley Davis gave a glowing account of the fabulous geography of India, especially the great Indo-Gangetic plain: “India is probably the third most gifted of the world’s regions with respect to industrial capacity, and the second or third with reference to agricultural resources. But in sheer area it is big enough. The geographical traits of the subcontinent are fabulous and their description requires unblushing superlatives…” The key to the region’s peculiar geography lies more outside than inside the boundaries, although it has its main effects inside. This is the Himalayan range, the loftiest mountain barrier in the world, which shuts off the subcontinent from the rest of Asia. From 150…

    Visit to a Village

    • 430 Words
    • 2 Pages

    Located just few kilometres away from a well-developed district, these two villages are stark contrasts from life as we know it and live. We witnessed the barest minimum necessities that people live with. Neere is more developed than Dhodani by virtue of being easily accessible by road from Panvel. The double edged sword affecting this area is that the farmers who for ages have produced rice which is the main crop have now sold off their land to large real estate companies and have amassed huge wealth. They are basking in the comfort of this richness with no thought attached to what might transpire in the future. While Neere is home to swanky cars and bikes, the basic medical amenities there are a bare minimum. We visited the local primary health care center present there and noticed the lack of many basic requirements. We understood the several gaps that existed in the system after talks with the administration, nurses and local villagers present there. A short distance from Neere, nestled in the lap of the Matheran’s forests, lies the village of Dhodani. This is a small village, seemingly tribal. All the basic facilities here are in a miserable state. Be it roads, electricity, water supply or basic health care , there appears to be a complete unavailability of any resources to the poor villagers. We noticed the differences in the society and how there people lived a life of sheer ignorance and cut off from rest of the world.…

    Because of Jammu and Kashmir's wide range of elevations, its biogeography is diverse. Northwestern thorn scrub forests and Himalayan subtropical pine forests are found in the low elevations of the far southwest. These give way to a broad band of western Himalayan broadleaf forests running from northwest-southeast across the Kashmir Valley. Rising into the mountains, the broadleaf forests grade into western Himalayan subalpine conifer forests. Above treeline are found northwestern Himalayan alpine shrub and meadows. Much of the northeast of the state is covered by the Karakoram-West Tibetan Plateau alpine steppe. Around the highest elevations, there is no vegetation, simply rock and ice.…
