It sounds to me like they are completely unprepared for this! H5N1: No alert in Punjab CHANDIGARH: Punjab government on Wednesday claimed it had not received any alert from the Centre on avian influenza even as the dreaded virus was con firmed in one of the domesticated geese that died at Sukhna lake. http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/chandigarh/H5N1-No-alert-in-Punjab/articleshow/45555080.cms Punjab has more than 80.19 lakh broilers and 1.05 crore layers (egg producing chicken) of poultry, according to the livestock department. However, the health officials in the state, which figures in top three lists of consumption of meat in the country, were caught unawares about the detection of flu in Chandigarh, "There is no information with me on this. The director of health services will have the information on this," said principal secretary (health) Vini Mahajan. Punjab health director, too, claimed he had not received any communication so far. He, though, said the department was equipped to handle the cases. "We have the relevant masks and the lab for the quarantine procedure and testing in Amritsar," said Dr Karanjit Singh. Singh also said there has been no detection of avian flu in Punjab since 2009, when it first spread in India. ------------- Buy more ammo! |

Indian Numbering System From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search This article needs additional citations for verification. Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources. Unsourced material may be challenged and removed. (September 2014) This article is about digit grouping of numbers in India. For the symbols used to write digits in India, see Indian numerals. This article contains Indic text. Without proper rendering support, you may see question marks or boxes, misplaced vowels or missing conjuncts instead of Indic text. The Indian Numbering System is used in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, and Sri Lanka. It is based on the Vedic numbering system in which numbers over 9,999 are written in two-digit groups (or a mix of two- and three-digit groups) rather than the three-digit groups used in most other parts of the world. In Pakistan, they do not use this numbering system in English media but only in Urdu and other regional languages. The terms lakh (100,000) and crore (10,000,000) are used in Indian English to express large numbers. For example, in India 150,000 rupees becomes 1.5 lakh rupees, written as INR1,50,000 or INR 1,50,000; 30,000,000 (thirty million) rupees becomes 3 crore rupees, written as INR3,00,00,000 with commas at the thousand, lakh, and crore levels; and 1,000,000,000 (one billion) rupees (one hundred crore rupees) is written INR1,00,00,00,000. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_Numbering_System - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_Numbering_System ------------- Buy more ammo! |

As a precautionary measure, access for public has been blocked from the entrance of the water body to its regulator end. Boating and other activities for tourists has also been stopped, officials said. The authorities have culled around 110 birds at the lake to prevent any outbreak of bird flu in the city. The entire area of the lake has been cordoned off and fully sanitised. The step came after two dozen ducks died in Sukhna Lake and one out of the dead tested positive of the dreaded virus, H5N1. The Sukhna Lake is in an upscale, high-security area of Chandigarh - the joint capital of Punjab and Haryana and a Union Territory. ------------- Everything we hear is an opinion, not a fact.
