HYGICLEAN-HANDS FREE SANITATION
One of the most dispensable habits still prevalent in India is that of using our hands to
clean after our daily bowel movement.The very act of touching the excreta\faecal matter with our hands is the most dangerous practice and immediately exposes us to the spread of some of the most dreaded diseases on earth viz;hepatitis,Typhoid,Cholera,Diarrhea,Gastroenteritis etc.As per a recent research done by Global hygiene Council,only 27% of Indians wash their hands with just water after completing the cleaning process after toilet. A small percentage of these use soap but the soap cannot clean more than 50% of these germs ( Source: Hospice Epidemiology Infection Control Manual,2nd edition 1999).
Today modern technology has a simple and affordable solution to these problems.It is called Attachable Bidets.
The various range of Attachable Bidets is introduced by M/s Mansha Enterprises, a Singapore based Company promoted by Mr.Lovell Khanna and Ms.Jasmine Khanna in 2003. Mr.Lovell khanna,CEO of the Company is a BITS Pilani graduate and an MBA from IIM,Kolkata. He has over 35 years of experience in managing both Indian & Overseas Companies.
The company has an office in Bangalore also.The website of the company is www.mansha-enterprises.com.

BT BRINJAL ROW.
In another 48 hours The Minister for Environment will be announcing his decision whether to introduce BT Brinjal in the country.There are two sets of arguments in favour by Bio Technology Scientists and against by NGO's and activists for introduction of BT Brinjal in the country. The majority of the states are opposed to introduction of BT Brinjal
BT Brinjal is a GM Crop and the scientists argue that the farmers will get higher yield and they need not use the pesticides. The Activists argue that the BT Brinjal may cause harm to our health and the Genetically Modified brinjal may in the long run eliminate our different varieties of brinjal numbering more than 2000 from our country.
But one thing is certain,the BT Brinjal is genetically engineered variety and the moot question is whether we require that when we have already more than 2000 varieties and grown plenty in the country.
As introduction of BT Brinjal as a crop is an agriculture subject,I donot know why Mr. Jairam Ramesh who is an Environment Minister should make an announcement instead of Mr.Sharad Pawar who is the Minister of Agriculture.
