A true hero returns home

Welcome back Wing Commander Abhinandan for returning safe and sound. Probably if you hadn't flown an outdated fighter jet, you would have returned unscathed.

Appreciate Pakistan's gesture for releasing the Indian Air force Wing Commander through efforts of India's national government.

Wing Commander Abhinandan, most probably, you have a lot of real life stories to share of your experience but primarily, you were there to defend and protect the 1.3 billion Indians from Kashmir to Kanyakumari, from Moreh to Morbi from external forces which objective is to either polarize or dismember multi-fabric but united India.

We salute you for your heroic national commitment to defend India's sovereignty and integrity.

Pakistan's retaliation

I want to draw attention towards Pakistan PM Imran Khan towards passing retaliation comments against India. Indians have not seen the 2nd attack in the territory of Pakistan since Indian army and air force had attacked in the territory of Pakistan in 1971. After 48 years, India witnessed the 2nd attack only against terrorists on February 26 last, 2019. Indian air force crossed the LOC and attacked on the biggest terrorist training camp of Jais-E-Mohammad at Balakot in Pakistan Occupied Kashmir in the wee hours of February 26 last where more than 325 terrorists died on the spot. After receiving the news of death of 325 tertorists, on February 27, immediately Pakistan PM-Imran Khan threatened to retaliate. And Pakistan air force tried to attack on the territory of India on February 27 last but failed due to instant action of military forces, Indian air force and army. PM-Imran Khan and Major General-Ashif Gafur, that day said that they had performed Pakistan's military power and they could retaliate against India .Interestingly PM-Imran Khan and Major General Ashif Gafur called PM-Narendra Modi for peace talks instead of giving support to India's attack against terrorists .If you do not support terrorist at all, why did you threaten to retaliate against India?

Dirty Assam Medical College

The Assam Medical College Campus is very unhygenic. The medical wastes are not properly disposed and also the medical departments also smell very bad. The apartments of AMC campus are in horrible condition with streets chocked with garbages everywhere. Most of the hostels like Nurse Hostel and Old boy's hostel should be reconstructed as they are getting damaged. Also, AMC campus had no adequate dustbins for people to throw garbage. Right from Pediatrics OPD to, Postmortem hall, Laundry to Old boys hostel, Old boys hostel to apartments, are filled with harmful medical garbage mainly because they are situated in the interiors of the campus and not maintained. They must be properly disposed because they contain medical hazards. But also the incinerator also smells very bad because garbage are thrown in the soil from where cows and other animals eat the garbage and poses high risks of getting infection.

Hope that the authorities take proper action against these because medical hazards have risks of getting infection.
