ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು: ಕೊರೊನಾ ವೈರಸ್ ಪರಿಣಾಮ ನೇಮಕಾತಿ ಪ್ರಕ್ರಿಯೆಗಳು ಸ್ಥಗಿತಗೊಂಡಿದೆ. ಇದರಿಂದಾಗಿ ಇಂಜಿನಿಯರಿಂಗ್ ಪದವಿದರರು ಕೆಲಸ ಸಿಗದೆ ಚಿಂತೆಗೆ ಈಡಾಗಿದ್ದಾರೆ ಎಂದು ಬ್ರಿಡ್ಜ್ಲ್ಯಾಬ್ಜ್ ಸಂಸ್ಥೆ ನಡೆಸಿದ ಸಮೀಕ್ಷೆಯಿಂದ ಬಹಿರಂಗಗೊಂಡಿದೆ. ಸಂಸ್ಥೆಯ ಸಮೀಕ್ಷೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಸುಮಾರು 1000 ಇಂಜಿನಿಯರಿಂಗ್ ಪದವಿದರರು ಪಾಲ್ಗೊಂಡಿದ್ದರು.
ನಮ್ಮ ಸಾಂಕ್ರಾಮಿಕ ನಂತರದ ಜಗತ್ತಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಎಂಜಿನಿಯರ್ಗಳನ್ನು ‘ಕೆಲಸ ಸಿದ್ಧ’ ಮಾಡುವ ಮೂಲಕ ಕೌಶಲ್ಯದ ಅಂತರವನ್ನು ಪರಿಹರಿಸುವ ಅಗತ್ಯವನ್ನು ಸಮೀಕ್ಷೆಯ ಸಂಶೋಧನೆಗಳು ಪುನಃ ಸ್ಥಾಪಿಸುತ್ತವೆ. ಶೇಕಡ 76 ರಷ್ಟು ಜನರು ತಮ್ಮ ಕಾಲೇಜುಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಸಕ್ರಿಯ ಪ್ಲೇಸ್ಮೆಂಟ್ ಸೆಲ್ ಹೊಂದಿರುವುದನ್ನು ಒಪ್ಪಿಕೊಂಡರೆ ಉಳಿದವರು ಇಲ್ಲದಿದ್ದರೆ ಹಕ್ಕು ಸಾಧಿಸಿದ್ದಾರೆ.
ಹೆಚ್ಚಿನ ವಿದ್ಯಾರ್ಥಿಗಳು ಸಕ್ರಿಯ ನಿಯೋಜನೆ ಕೋಶಗಳನ್ನು ಹೊಂದಿದ್ದಾರೆಂದು ಒಪ್ಪಿಕೊಂಡರೂ ಶೇಕಡ 24 ರಷ್ಟು ಪ್ರತಿಕ್ರಿಯಿಸಿದವರಲ್ಲಿ ಐದನೇ ಒಂದು ಭಾಗಕ್ಕಿಂತ ಸ್ವಲ್ಪ ಹೆಚ್ಚು ಮಾತ್ರ ಅವರ ಮೂಲಕ ಉದ್ಯೋಗವನ್ನು ಪಡೆಯಲು ಸಾಧ್ಯವಾಯಿತು ಎಂಬುದು ಗಮನಾರ್ಹ. ವಿದ್ಯಾರ್ಥಿಗಳ ಪ್ರಮುಖ ಭಾಗವು ಯಾವುದೇ ಉದ್ಯೋಗ ಕೊಡುಗೆಗಳಿಂದ ದೂರವಿರುತ್ತದೆ. ಶೇಕಡ 78.64 ರಷ್ಟು ವಿದ್ಯಾರ್ಥಿಗಳು ಪ್ರಸ್ತುತ ಯಾವುದೇ ಉದ್ಯೋಗವನ್ನು ಹೊಂದಿಲ್ಲ ಎಂದು ಇದು ಸೂಚಿಸುತ್ತದೆ.
ಸಮೀಕ್ಷೆಯ ಪ್ರಕಾರ ಶೇಕಡ 35.48% ಎಂಜಿನಿಯರಿಂಗ್ ಉದ್ಯೋಗಾಕಾಂಕ್ಷಿಗಳು ಸಮಯೋಚಿತ ನಿಯೋಜನೆಗಳ ಬಗ್ಗೆ ಚಿಂತಿತರಾಗಿದ್ದಾರೆ. ಸಾಂಕ್ರಾಮಿಕ-ಪ್ರೇರಿತ-ಆರ್ಥಿಕ ಮಂದಗತಿಯ ಹಿನ್ನೆಲೆಯಲ್ಲಿ, ಅನೇಕ ಸಂಸ್ಥೆಗಳು ತಮ್ಮ ನೇಮಕ ಪ್ರಕ್ರಿಯೆಗಳನ್ನು ಸ್ಥಗಿತಗೊಳಿಸಿವೆ ಅಥವಾ ಸಾಮೂಹಿಕ ವಜಾಗೊಳಿಸುತ್ತಿವೆ. ಈ ತಾತ್ಕಾಲಿಕ ಪ್ರವೇಶಸಾಧ್ಯತೆಯು ತಾತ್ಕಾಲಿಕ ಎಂಜಿನಿಯರಿಂಗ್ ಪದವೀಧರರ ಸ್ಥಾನವನ್ನು ಸಮಯಕ್ಕೆ ಸರಿಯಾಗಿ ಪಡೆದುಕೊಳ್ಳುವಲ್ಲಿ ಈ ಜಾಗದಲ್ಲಿ ಅವಕಾಶಗಳನ್ನು ಬಯಸುತ್ತದೆ.
“ಸಮೀಕ್ಷೆಯು ಅನೇಕ ಚಿಂತನಾ ಅಂಶಗಳನ್ನು ಮುನ್ನೆಲೆಗೆ ತಂದಿದೆ. ಮೊದಲನೆಯದಾಗಿ ಎಲ್ಲಾ ಎಂಜಿನಿಯರಿಂಗ್ ಅಭ್ಯರ್ಥಿಗಳು ತಮ್ಮ ಕಾಲೇಜುಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಕ್ಯಾಂಪಸ್ ನಿಯೋಜನೆ ಹೊಂದಿಲ್ಲ. ಎರಡನೆಯದಾಗಿ, ಅಂತಹ ನಿಬಂಧನೆಗಳ ಪ್ರವೇಶವು ಸಹ ಉದ್ಯೋಗವನ್ನು ಖಾತರಿಪಡಿಸುವುದಿಲ್ಲ. ಪ್ರಸ್ತುತ ಆರ್ಥಿಕ ಕುಸಿತದ ನೇತೃತ್ವದಲ್ಲಿ ನೇಮಕ ಪ್ರಕ್ರಿಯೆಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಅಭೂತಪೂರ್ವ ವಿರಾಮ ಇದಕ್ಕೆ ಕಾರಣವಾಗಿರಬಹುದು. ಮತ್ತು, ಕೊನೆಯದಾಗಿ ಆದರೆ, ಉದ್ಯೋಗಾಕಾಂಕ್ಷಿಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಶೀಘ್ರದಲ್ಲೇ ಅಪೇಕ್ಷಿತ ಸಂಭಾವನೆಯೊಂದಿಗೆ ಕೆಲಸ ಸಿಗುತ್ತದೆಯೇ ಎಂಬ ವಿಶ್ವಾಸವಿಲ್ಲ” ಎಂದು ಬ್ರಿಡ್ಜ್ಲ್ಯಾಬ್ಜ್ ಸಂಸ್ಥೆಯ ಸಿಇಒ ನಾರಾಯಣ್ ಮಹಾದೇವನ್ ಹೇಳಿದರು.

~Introduces revolutionary Livinguard Face Mask that inactivates 99.9% of COVID-19 virus~
Bengaluru, 17th June 2020 : With the development of medication to combat the novel coronavirus still in the works, it has become imperative to find an immediate solution for this global pandemic. After conducting more than 65,000 experiments and filing more than 100 patents, Swiss hygiene company Livinguard, with operations also in India, as well as Germany, USA, Singapore, Japan, and South Africa, has come up with a revolutionary and first of its kind face mask, that can directly inactivate bacteria and viruses, including 99.9% of the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2. While most masks available across counters or open markets are preventive in nature, Livinguard face masks are protective and prevent bacteria and viruses from spreading, benefiting both self and others in close proximity. The globally patented technology was invented by Mr. Sanjeev Swamy, an entrepreneur of Indian origin, who also heads the company.
Researchers from the Free University of Berlin at the Institute for Animal Hygiene and Environmental Health have been able to demonstrate that textiles treated with Livinguard Technology can reduce very high amounts of SARS-CoV-2 particles by more than 99.9% within a few hours. “The textiles in these masks can thus continuously inactivate the exhaled viruses and can make handling these masks even safer overall,” says Professor Uwe Rösler. “In addition, such textiles could also help to reduce hygienic issues in other general and medical areas, even beyond COVID-19.” The masks were launched today in India through a virtual press conference where the founder joined from their Swiss headquarters.
Mr. Sanjeev Swamy, Founder, Inventor & CEO, Livinguard Technologiessaid, “The World Health Organization estimates 89 million medical masks will be required every month throughout the pandemic. Providing superior quality of daily life has always been our aim. Our mission is to provide hygiene suited for the modern world, hence the reason that we chose to conduct our tests at the FU Berlin, who is renowned for their highest standards; and we are honored to be able to introduce Livinguard masks in India. With the number of cases rising in the country daily, it has become crucial to find an answer to the problem. The unique characteristics of Livinguard masks will provide users with an unprecedented level of security. Fine Hygienic Holding in the Middle East is one of our biggest users, as well as millions more across Singapore, Japan, Germany and China. I am confident that we will have similar success in India too.”
He further added, “Livinguard’s current focus is to apply this Technology to solutions that lessen the health risk and economic impact of the crisis by enabling people to protect themselves, return to work, and take back their lives. Since our product is washable and reusable, and mostly made from cotton, the mask is eco-friendly and sustainable. Our research shows that if a million people use one reusable Livinguard mask 210 times, we can save 36,000 tonnes of waste. It is also cheaper than a regular mask because one will need 210 masks to compare with one of ours.”
One of the most respected science leaders of India, Dr Raghunath Mashelkar, said “This scientific breakthrough of deactivating SARS-COV-2 virus on contact with the mask, authenticated fully by world’s top universities, is a global game changer. Every effort should be made so that every Indian benefits from this unprecedented paradigm shift in this provision of safety, security & sustainability, going far beyond the current pandemic.”
The principle underlying the Livinguard Technology is empowering the textile surface with a strong positive charge. When microbes come in contact with fabric, the microbial cell which is negatively charged, is destroyed leading to permanent destruction of the microorganism. Unlike heavy metal-based solutions, such as silver, zinc and copper, this novel technology has been found to be safe for both skin and lungs. Moreover, Livinguard Technology destroys continuously and allows users to reuse the mask up to 210 times with no compromise on safety or efficacy. Livinguard AG believes that the future is tied to sustainable solutions that treat our world kindly. The Livinguard Face Mask not only harnesses powerful coronavirus killing technology but also minimizes waste and uses resources efficiently, thereby offering a unique solution for an overheated supply chain.
The Livinguard mask comprises 3 layers that give 5 levels of protection. The unique patented Tripellent Technology on the Outer layer offers 3 levels of protection – Livinguard Antiviral and repellent coating on the outside of the fabric, Livinguard Antiviral Technology bonded into the fabric itself and Livinguard Antiviral and repellent coating on the inside of the fabric. Non-woven industry-standard filters in the middle layer channels viruses for destruction to the outer or inner layers. Sandwiched between disinfecting fabrics, it is protected from biological contamination, allowing the mask to be safely washed and reused. Denser than the outer layer, and also treated with Livinguard Antiviral Technology, the fabric of the inner layer provides powerful inactivation of coronavirus. Odour free and quick drying with low humidity, the soft and stretchy fabric gives a comfortable fit for the mouth and nose. This specially treated fabric has 36 billion positive charges per cm2.
The Livinguard mask can be washed up to 30 times with undiminished efficacy of its protective properties. If used daily and washed weekly under normal usage conditions, the mask can be used for 6 months, effectively replacing the need for single-use masks. The mask can be used for extended periods and reused before washing because the fabric covering the filter media continuously destroys microorganisms upon contact. This significantly diminishes the risk of transferring them to the user and to other surfaces. The mask is proven to be non-toxic and safe for use. The masks are being used by frontline COVID warriors across the world. Depending on the type of mask required, the cost is INR 1490-1990 only.
Livinguard is a member of the World Economic Forum’s Innovators Community. Arnaud Bernaert, Head of Health and Healthcare, World Economic Forum commented, “The World Economic Forum is happy to have Livinguard join our Global Innovators community. We are delighted to work with Livinguard as their innovation holds the potential to greatly advance the world’s response toolkit in the fight against COVID”.
Bengaluru, 17th June 2020 : Ecom Express, a leading technology enabled end-to-end logistics solutions provider to e-commerce industry, has announced that it plans to hire over 7000 employees at a time of economic and employment ambiguity in the current COVID-19 situation. The full-time openings in the next two months spans across business functions such as last-mile delivery, warehousing management, operations, information technology and data sciences.
These new positions represent around 25% of the Company’s total workforce. The hiring will be made across the country including metro cities i.e. Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Chennai,Bengaluru,Hyderabad as well as cities including Ahmedabad, Surat, Chandigarh, Indore, Patna, Lucknow, Kanpur, Bhopal and Jaipur.
Saurabh Deep Singla, Senior Vice President and Chief Human Resource Officer, Ecom Express said,
‘’As a provider of logistics services to e-commerce industry, employees are paramount and a pivot to what we do. In these difficult times, we see increase in the demand for online shopping across cities and we need to support the scale and size for doorstep deliveries. The hiring of new employees is driven by unprecedented need to keep the supply chain running for e-commerce industry and in ensuring safe and timely deliveries.’’
Ecom Express has chalked out plans to hire around 35000 employees till the beginning of this year’s festive season in order to be prepared for the surge in online shopping backed by festival sales and increasing preference to doorstep deliveries. At the same time, the company is in a unique position to contribute towards helping our communities wade through the crisis and provide them with the opportunities to earn.
When more than 1000 soldiers clash, whether with barbed clubs sticks or baseball bats, 20 or 30 or 50 is a low figure. In the narrow gorge that defines the terrain at the point of contact in Gwalan valley in sub zero temperatures of High Altitude Areas of Ladakh, chances of soldiers rolling down into the river and getting washed away in icy river are reasonably high.
Expect more casualties on both sides and that is one part of the story.
Indian Army Calls Out Chinese Bluff
Looking beyond, the perpetual bully called China (whose 60% territory today actually never belonged to China, including white of TIBET/XINJIANG/UIGHUR/AKSAI CHIN/PARTS OF MONGOLIA) is talking about ‘No War’ WITH INDIA within a few hours of getting a bloodied nose BY INDIAN ARMY and that is something unprecedented.
Those who follow Chinese closely, would get the point being made.
Indo-China war will not happen!
China is in no position to wage a war with the whole world, except two nations, staring Chinese in their slanting eyes!
Now the question is if war was not the motive, why did it happen after the issue had been discussed and decision had been taken a few hours back to pull back! For China, it was a gamble that had to be taken. After the bashing that the top leadership received post withdrawal and climbdown in Doklam, another similar withdrawal would have put the Chinese President on a barbeque. At the same time, with the CPEC compulsion forcing China to do something especially after 370 abrogation, they took a gamble. Chinese were playing & hoping on usual Indian response of exercising restraint.
But there is no one more unpredictable, volatile & volcanic as an Indian Army Battalion whose Commanding Officer has been martyred while leading his Battalion to save the DIGNITY of his Motherland, anything could happen and somewhere, the control over the ploy was lost by the Chinese who were shocked and bewildered by Indian Ferocity on the night of 15 June 20 in icy heights of Ladakh. Chinese one-child policy has led to a generation of AC-reared pampered kids who form their forces today. Those CHINESE Army softies were never expected to match up with Indian soldiers one to one to start with and it got proved in less than two hours.
Just Six hours later, Chinese were calling Indians for talks! Had Indians taken it lying down, China would have declared itself a Victor after the stand off.
Loss of life is sad but we Indian soldiers take it with a sense of pride. Our only regret is the compulsion to fight in a way that identifies with the stone age.
No one knows for sure what kind of Indian response will follow since as per the reports till now, Chinese had started it in the first place. India giving it back hereafter may or may not happen.
But I have a feeling that this moment will define our future relationship with China.
China has lost the plot and the dominating position that it has always been very proud of.
Chinese talking peace, so soon after a skirmish, is unusual and it tells us a thing or two.
Govt will do what is supposed to be done; our soldiers will fight when ordered but the first thing that all of us can do is to BOYCOTT the Chinese CRAP from today itself.
We don’t have to throw everything out but we must stop buying Chinese goods! Rest will be taken care of.
🇮🇳 JAI HIND🇮🇳
