Need for Double Masking

I would like to highlight the importance of double masking during this dreadful second wave of COVID-19. Our country has seen a big surge of cases including deaths this time and we should all be very very careful while going out and being in contact with others. Double masking should be practised always as many studies have proved it to be highly effective. According to a study by CDC, meticulate measures such as double masking has been able to control the transmission of the virus in a big way. According to the study when two persons were kept standing six feet apart, as compared to single mask which blocked 40 % of the particles coming out from one’s mouth, double masking helped block more than 80 % of particles. Additional layers create a tougher barrier which helps stop germs and viruses from creeping in and spreading infections. A cloth mask over a surgical mask has been the most effective way of double masking as per studies.

Combined Engineering Services Exam

So, today I would like to mention a few points regarding the recruitment process of enginees that is followed in various government departments of our state. Recruitment to various departments is done individually and there are no specific schedules followed for the recruitment processes. At times, engineers need to wait for long duration before the next vacancy arises and then wait for months or years for the whole process to complete which include conducting screening tests, interviews and finally posting for the selected candidates. There things can have a real bad impact on the minds the job seeker who aspires to serve his own people in a big way. A combined Engineering Services Exam can help a lot in this regard. Rather than conducting untimely separate examinations, a single recruitment exam comprising of all the government departments can be conducted at a specific time every year. With proper planning, the vacancies for every year could be ascertained. The exam model of Engineering Services Examination conducted by UPSC can be followed. This will surely improve the selection process and make it a real smooth one. It will also help in reducing brain drain. Also, these type of steps will surely motivate the present as well as the upcoming generation of engineers in a big way. Ultimately, our state, our country and as a whole the society will be benefited. The Government and APSC should discuss about this topic and come up with a proper model. This combined exam model can also be applied to various other category of jobs in our state. Hoping to see it get implemented sometime real soon.

THE BEGINNING. . . . .

“Sharing is caring”

With this beautiful thought I want to step into this blogging world. Hoping that I can share contents that are worthy which can maybe help someone in some way or the other. I am also here to gain a lot of knowledge and improve my knowledge on those things which I already know.

I have always been a firm believer of the fact that if I know something that is needed to be known then it is my responsibility to share it with the maximum that I can. Today, the world is moving in an unimaginable pace and to keep up with the pace, it is becoming very very difficult. Maybe we are the lucky ones with the technology in our hands. Let us use it in a good way. Let us HELP. Everyone is not so fortunate to go to schools or colleges. For them the struggle is to survive. Let us help them, share our knowledge with them. If we need our world to survive, we need to move by holding the hands of one another.

Another and perhaps the biggest fight we are in is the survival of the human race. Lots of good and bad things are happening every second. Let the bad things not happen. Many people do the bad things knowingly and many do it unknowingly. We need to educate all of them. We do not need to do much, but just do the simple things. If we do not respect our Mother Earth, it will also not respect us and we will not know also when everything is burnt into ashes. Let us use the technology in it’s best possible way. Let us spread knowledge.

I just want to contribute in whatever way I can. Let us keep our surroundings clean, eat healthy, respect our elders, care for our parents and think twice before we do anything and and yes, let us always keep a positive energy – let us KEEP SMILING 🙂

Wih this, I sign off today….

Have a good day.

Thank you.

Jai Hind
