Toddler suffers cobra bite in Pune district, snakebite reporting rules in focus | Pune News

Published by Parlour News

The recent instance of a toddler suffering a cobra bite in Pune district has spurred renewed calls for declaring snakebite a notifiable disease in Maharashtra. Last week, the two-and-a-half-year-old girl was sleeping beside her farmer father on the floor of their small home at Mahalunge Padwal village when a cobra bit her. The terrified parents rushed her to the Vighnahar Nursing Home, which is about 15 km away from their village, as her body had turned cold and she had dilated pupils. While aggressive anti-snake venom treatment was initiated, the little girl suffered three cardiac arrests and had to be resuscitated each time. Talking about the incident, Dr Sadanand Raut, Founder, Vighnahar Nursing Home, who has saved more than 12,000 snakebite victims, said it was “deeply frustrating” that Maharashtra has still not declared snakebite cases and deaths a notifiable disease despite reminders from the Centre. 30 vials of anti-snake venom “The little girl had no palpable pulse, no audible heart sounds, and had stopped breathing,” Dr Raut recalled.

Lahore, Pakistan’s media watchdog has issued a show-cause notice to a leading news channel for running “Indian content” while broadcasting the news about the death of legendary singer Asha Bhosle. Pak media watchdog issues notice to channel for running ‘Indian content’ while reporting news of Asha Bhosle’s death A ban on Indian content in Pakistan has been in place since 2018. The Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority issued the show-cause notice to GeoNews on Monday seeking an explanation as to why it aired Indian content along with the news of Bhosle’s death. The leading news channel is considered close to the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz government and the military establishment. Bhosle passed away on Sunday due to multi-organ failure. She was 92. “It has always been customary to revisit and celebrate the work of iconic artists when reporting on them. In fact, for an artist of Asha Bhosle’s stature, we should have shared even more of her timeless and memorable songs than we did. Yet, Pakistan’s electronic media regulator, PEMRA, has chosen to restrict this,” Azhar …

New Delhi: The Ministry of Information and Broadcasting on Saturday issued an advisory directing all media outlets to refrain from broadcasting live coverage of military operations or movements of security forces. The advisory extends to news agencies, digital platforms, and social media users, emphasising the need for utmost caution and responsibility in reporting matters related to national security. “In the interest of national security, all media platforms, news agencies, and social media users are advised to exercise utmost responsibility and adhere strictly to existing laws and regulations while reporting on matters concerning defence and other security-related operations,” the Ministry said in a statement. The government specifically prohibited the real-time dissemination of visuals, live reporting from sensitive locations, and the use of “source-based” information relating to ongoing military actions. It warned that premature disclosure of sensitive operational details could inadvertently assist hostile elements, jeopardising both the effectiveness of missions and the safety of personnel involved.

Registrar General of India cautions hospitals over delay in reporting events of birth, death

Published by Parlour News

With Census being delayed, the statistics obtained through civil registration records enable estimation of population. File | Photo Credit: The Hindu The Registrar General of India’s (RGI) office has cautioned private and government hospitals that they must report incidents of birth and death within 21 days, after it was found that many medical institutions were flouting the law, delaying universal registration. Instead of immediately reporting births and deaths, many hospitals are waiting for relatives to request it or even directing relatives to report it themselves, the RGI said. In a March 17, 2025 circular, the RGI’s office said that 90% of birth or death events are getting registered in India and significant progress has been made towards the goal of universal registration. However, “the target of 100% registration of births and deaths is yet to be achieved.” “One of the primary reasons for non-realisation of the goal of universal registration is non-reporting of birth and death events by some hospitals, be it private or government, as per the provisions of RBD,” the circular said. ‘Negligence …
