So heartening to see her inching closer towards her dream. What a journey it has been. Thanks to @BIRAC_2012 Social Innovation Program, for giving her a platform to identify this unmet need. More power to you Sruthi!
My tweet about my meeting with Ms Sruthi Babu of Coimbatore & her excellent invention, #Sahayatha, a wheelchair with sanitation facilities for disabled users, seems to have gone astray. Happy to commend this outstanding product which addresses a real human need:

“There are gaps here! Trauma is non-linear, trauma broke my sense of time.” This hits hard! Wish every girl had the same amount of courage to speak up. In solidarity with every women who have gone through the similar traumatic experiences.

I’ve started 8 companies that employ >1,000 people. But… I don’t build startups like everyone else. I use a system called “Effectuation” It will change how you build innovative businesses. (1/x)

In Keshav Desiraju’s passing, we have lost a rare individual - an efficient, caring & compassionate bureaucrat who had a huge impact on public policy in India, a thinker & doer, a writer & music lover & a man of impeccable integrity. My tribute.

India News: By Soumya SwaminathanThe first time that I met Keshav Desiraju was when he was Union health secretary and I was the director of the Tuberculosis Resea.

I am not for war analogy for pandemic response or health professionals (army). But good to see a recognition of the CRUCIAL role played by ASHAs in our community health response. Now India, let's pay them fair and just wages too for all their hard work in the field #COVID19

One of the most profound illustrations I have come across! The pain just doesn’t go, we just get used to it and grow around it!

It may sound like hyperbole. But India needs a helmsman like @Naveen_Odisha : be it a calamity or COVID: he manages it with elan and without any surround sound or heroics. Deeds always score over words.

We lose thousands a day. No silence is observed. No paper prints an obituary on its own. No grants for the victims. Nothing. Each to our own. No shared grief. This will haunt us. The next generation watches.

Oxygen saturation can become the difference between home-care & hospitalisation for COVID patients. Our amazing team @AaynaClinic just made a guide to proning. Everyone must know about it at this time. Pls share widely!
