DGFT Revised Wastage Norms for Gem & Jewellery Exports, GJEPC Reacts

Mumbai, May 30, 2024: On behalf of the industry, the Gem & Jewellery Export Promotion Council (GJEPC) extends its heartfelt appreciation to the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT), Ministry of Commerce & Industry for their recent decision to put in abeyance the changes in maximum permissible wastage norms for gold, platinum, and silver content in jewellery exports.

In a virtual meeting called at a short notice on 28th May, GJEPC played an active role in advocating for a balanced approach that enables minimal disruption to exports and considers both efficiency and the livelihoods of millions associated with the trade. In the meeting, GJEPC informed DGFT officials that the revised norms would have a disproportionate impact on the small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs), which represent 85% of all exporters.

DGFT has given GJEPC time until 31st July to provide inputs on Standard Input Output Norms (SION). In this time period, GJEPC will conduct a detailed study on wastage norms on different categories of jewellery including plain, studded, machine-made and hand-made.

Thanking DGFT for putting on hold the revised wastage norms, Mr. Vipul Shah, Chairman, GJEPC, said: “The industry’s growth and competitiveness depend on thoughtful policies. We appreciate the DGFT’s prompt action to put the new wastage policy in abeyance considering its impact on small exporters. The norms have been prevailing for over a decade, and any significant change requires thorough study and consultation with industry stakeholders.”

“By putting the revised wastage norms on hold till 31st July to provide detailed inputs on wastage in various jewellery categories, DGFT through its immediate action, has avoided an immediate standstill of exports.”

Gaur City Mall brightens up the day for Mothers and Daughters from EWS families

Gaur City Mall recently organized a memorable day out for mothers and daughters from economically weaker sections (EWS) who receive free education at Gaurs International School under the “Beti Bachao Beti Padhao” initiative. This special event was held under the aegis of the Gaurs Foundation. This initiative is a part of the Gaurs Group’s steadfast commitment to social causes and community welfare.

Manju Gaur, Director of Gaurs Group, emphasized the organization’s dedication to impactful social initiatives, “This visit was a small step in imparting a feeling of pride among these girls and enabling them to walk step by step with other sections of the society. In alignment with Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi’s ‘Beti Bachao Beti Padhao’ scheme, we provide formal education to girls from EWS at Gaurs International School in the evening.”

The outing saw ten selected girls and their mothers enjoy a delightful day at Gaur City Mall, located in Greater Noida West. The event featured a variety of activities designed to create joyful and lasting memories. The mothers who were the special guests of the day indulged in retail therapy, received pampering treatments at the salon, watched a movie, and participated in other fun-filled activities. The entire experience was arranged by Gaur City Mall, ensuring that the mothers and daughters could bond and relish the day without any financial concerns.

Reflecting on the event, Manju Gaur added, “Witnessing the joy and excitement shared by these mothers and daughters was deeply satisfying for all of us at Gaurs Group. We are committed to organizing more such initiatives to support and uplift our community.”

Visits like this empower the kids from the weaker section with the confidence to navigate and understand how these social environments operate. Such experiences will broaden their horizons and familiarise them with different societal settings.

As a socially and environmentally conscious organization, Gaurs Group, also known as Gaursons India, not only focuses on educating girls from EWS but also engages in various sustainable practices. These include a 15MW solar power project, rainwater harvesting systems, and a state-of-the-art Sewage Treatment Plant, reflecting their dedication to environmental stewardship.

Inside the Battle Against Trigeminal Neuralgia

By Dr. Swaroop Gopal P, Group Director Aster International Institute of Neuroscience, Aster Whitefield Hospital, Bangalore.

Striking roughly 1 in 15,000 individuals, trigeminal neuralgia is a condition with a “death wish” due to its excruciating, electric shock-like pain that can push sufferers to the brink of despair. In such circumstances, when trigeminal neuralgia strikes, individuals often endure excruciating facial pain described as jolting, stabbing, or resembling electric shocks concentrated on one side of the face. Seemingly mundane activities like brushing teeth, shaving, talking, or feeling a cool breeze can unexpectedly trigger these intense pain episodes. The severity of the pain can disrupt daily activities and sleep, fostering feelings of depression and anxiety. In some instances, the pain may persist as a constant burning sensation rather than manifesting as sharp, episodic bursts.

1. Age and Occurrence: Although TN can occur at any age, it predominantly affects individuals over 50 years old and is very rare among minors. The incidence of TN increases significantly with age.
2. Misleading Pain-Free Periods: TN can present periods of remission lasting from weeks to years, creating a false sense of security. These pain-free intervals can complicate the diagnosis and make the condition unpredictable.
3. Trigger Zones and Hypersensitivity: Certain facial areas become hypersensitive in TN patients. Even a light touch can trigger an attack, making everyday interactions potentially painful.
4. Common Misdiagnosis: TN pain often mimics a severe toothache, leading many to seek dental treatment initially. However, unlike a toothache, TN pain is sharper, spans a broader area of the face, and does not respond to dental treatments.
5. Underlying Causes: The exact cause of TN is often unclear. The prevailing theory suggests that compression of the trigeminal nerve by blood vessels or tumors disrupts its normal function, causing it to send erroneous pain signals. Conditions like multiple sclerosis may also contribute to TN.
6. Importance of Medical Attention: Prompt medical attention is crucial when experiencing the intense pain characteristic of TN. A thorough evaluation by a healthcare professional is essential to diagnose the condition accurately and recommend appropriate treatment.
7. Diagnostic Procedures: Diagnosis primarily involves a detailed account of the pain, its location, and triggers. Medical history is crucial, and imaging tests like MRI scans help rule out other causes and identify nerve compressions. Additional tests may sometimes be required.
8. Treatment and Management: The primary goal in TN treatment is pain relief and prevention of future episodes. A multifaceted approach is common

• Medications: Anticonvulsants are often the first line of defense, stabilizing abnormal nerve activity.
• Nerve Blocks: Involves direct injections of anesthetics or steroids into the trigeminal nerve for temporary relief.
• Surgical Options: Minimally invasive surgeries may be considered when medication and nerve blocks are ineffective, aiming to disrupt specific pain fibers in the nerve.
• Home Remedies: While not cures, some find temporary relief with heat or ice packs, but these should be discussed with a healthcare provider to avoid counteracting prescribed treatments.

ACKO Introduces ABHA ID feature on app; Plans to Generate 1 million+ IDs by FY25

Bengaluru, 30th May 2024: To take forward the National Health Authority’s (NHA) vision of creating a digital healthcare ecosystem in India, ACKO, the insurance company, has launched an innovative feature on its app to enable the creation of ABHA IDs. Through this integration, ACKO aims to generate over a million ABHA IDs in the current financial year.

This initiative signifies ACKO’s commitment to empowering customers across India with a single platform for accessing their digital health records including insurance at the click of a button.

The ABHA ID feature is available for both ACKO customers and non-ACKO customers, promoting accessibility and inclusivity within the healthcare landscape. Additionally, any health insurance policy from ACKO comes with the option of creating the consumer’s ABHA ID.

The launch of the ABHA ID feature on the ACKO app will offer a multitude of advantages to the customers. Individuals can conveniently store and manage their medical history, including prescriptions, lab reports, and hospitalization details, in a single, secure location. The ABHA ID gives greater control to customers over their health data, fostering better communication with healthcare providers. Moreover, doctors can leverage ABHA IDs to access a patient’s complete medical background, enabling them to provide more informed diagnoses and treatment plans.

Commenting on the initiative Rupinderjit Singh, Vice President – Retail Health at ACKO said, “We understand that the health data centralization & seamless flow of healthcare information between stakeholders is the next UPI moment for the country contributing to the ‘health revolution’. The launch of the ABHA ID generation feature on ACKO platforms is a transformative initiative towards helping the Indian government drive widespread ABHA ID adoption. ACKO aims to offer a user-friendly platform streamlining the ABHA ID creation process, ensuring a smooth and hassle-free experience, thereby, empowering every individual to take charge of their health information.”

Through this integration, ACKO has taken a significant step forward in revolutionizing India’s healthcare landscape, promoting accessibility, transparency, and a patient-centric approach and actively supporting the Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM), a government-backed healthcare initiative, which aims to develop the backbone necessary to support the integrated digital health infrastructure of the country, ensuring wider healthcare coverage for the underprivileged.
