 Hello friends, welcome to salespedia current affairs digital library so today we are going to see pizza ok national agriculture hair education project and Bharat Peru on problems perspective and health sector on the problems on mains perspective ok so this is we are going to see today's topic. So first see pizza so what is pizza and why it is in use our ministry of human resource development has signed a pact with OECD which means organization for economic cooperation and development for participating in this pizza program 2021 ok 2021. So this program is actually a three years while it happens once in three years ok now our students from all the central government schools will take part in this 2021 event ok this is the news ok so what is this pizza 2021 so it actually a competency based test ok it is actually a test ok which is conducted for students of 15 years or above in three categories namely reading mathematics and science ok they look after the foundation of these students in learning reading mathematics as well as science ok so what they had said is that will have a students age 15 or above in this program for international student assessment that is pizza ok that that will conduct the foundation of experiment the foundation of these students ok so the age of 15 which means the student will complete the basic education so with that basic education it will check whether the students are compatible enough for the higher education so that is the basic thing so initially it was introduced in the year 2000 by OECD and all the countries were participating nearly most of the countries are participating but India has stayed away from 2012 and 2015 because of the dismal performances in those years in which the India was ranked 72 out of 74 countries so that India did not participate in the last two events ok now in 2009 the schools from Tamil Nadu and Himachal Pradesh have participated in that event ok the students in India are selected from a random sampling conducted by NSSO in all other organizations of the competent students will be selected for this pizza program so this program will be conducted in Kendra Vidyalayas, Navodya Vidyalayas and the union territory of Chandigarh where the pizza 2021 will be held in Chandigarh in the year 2021 ok so this OECD will administer the test across all the schools in Chandigarh in 2021 so to know the capability of the students here the Chandigarh is selected for is the compact area and the Chandigarh holds a record of highest foundation skills hence Chandigarh is selected for pizza 2021 ok so far in 2015 Singapore, Japan and Estonia were ranked as the top three countries in this pizza ranking ok so this is about the news ok next now let's move on to our next topic Bharathpur ok Bharathpur is a national festival of India so which shows the culture quiz in our heritage and other dance forms or culture of India in during the Republic week ok that is the Bharathpur festival so what are the main objective of this Bharathpur first one to create patriotic mood about India and to showcase a rich cultural diversity of India and all to show that the public about a culture and make the public participate in those events and also to popularize the idea of egg Bharath stressed Bharath ok one India the developed India so that is the objective of this Bharathpur program ok now who conducts this so this is conducted by Ministry of Tourism ok it is a nodal agency for conducting this Bharathpur ok this is mostly conducted from January 26 to 31st January of 2019 so it is organized by Government of India with nodal ministry as Ministry of Tourism so what are the major attraction for this year for the first time we have conduct set up a digital showcase booth ok which shows a visual reality of all the areas ok digital innovations like skill India startup India all the all the ideas are shown in visual reality so this was conducted in partnership with Google Arts and Culture ok so this is the major attraction in this event and also we had seen Adopt a Heritage Project of Tourism Ministry where they have set up a stall and they also provided the video footage of the monuments on how they are working forward for developing those monuments ok so it is mostly done by the monument Mitras so who are the volunteers of this Adopt a Heritage Project ok and they also made a replica of Gandhi Gram so Gandhi Gram is based on the painting it is actually a painting made by the ideology of Gandhi ok it is the topic of the topic of the painting so they have made it as with 10 painters they have made and they also made a replica of the statue of the statue of unity that is Sardar Vallabhai Patel statue returned by Sanjan Ratnam ok Sanjan Ratnam he had structured that ok and also other implications like special tourist trains of IRCTC, Jagograha Jaggo programs and also are exhibition conducted by directorate of advertising and visual publicity so these are the major attractions for this today's year Bharat Purv ok so this is about this news ok now let's move on to the next topic NAHEP that is National Agriculture Higher Education Project so while it is in use the Indian Council of Agriculture Research has developed has started developing a project called National Agriculture Higher Education Project that is to develop the agriculture universities and provide higher educations for the students in the country so the major aim is to attract the talent and strengthen the higher agricultural education in the country so this project is actually funded by both Indian Government and World Bank on 50-50 basis ok and they are also planning to start four professional degrees like agriculture, horticulture, fisheries and forestry as professional degrees for as a four year degree ok these are the aims of this NAHEP ok now what are all the objectives first supporting agriculture universities and Indian Council of Agriculture Research in developing relevant and relevant topics for the students as well as develop higher quality education for the agriculture university students ok so this will enhance the country partnership strategy that means it cross cuts all the areas of the country and this will engage in three areas that means integrating all the universities and transformation of the education system and including all the backward or rural areas so these are the basic aim of this NAHEP now it is also a multi-global practice collaboration that means it collaborates with other countries ok other countries to develop agriculture and also the technologies in India ok hence we also look forward for area of climate change job and gender equality so it has even planned to inculcate the syllabus the curriculum of climate change and gender equality into this agriculture university so these are the objectives of this project ok now what are all the achievements what can be done if NAHEP is implemented so NAHEP can implement four sustainable development goals if this project is implemented the first one is inclusive and equitable quality education promote lifelong learning opportunities for all so this is based on the vocational training and also the gender equal and wealth equity training given by the NAHEP so this will include equity education equitable education for both genders ok so this is the first goal next one is inclusive and sustainable economic growth employment and decent work so with diversifying the subjects and diversifying the curriculum the employment opportunity will get increased hence the economic growth will also get increased and in a sustainable manner so this is the second SDG goal the next one is resilient infrastructure promoting industrialization fostering innovations so NAHEP is planning for investing so much in the research and development programs hence it will increase the innovation perspective in the country and this will also help to increase industrialization in the country ok the next the fourth goal is the combat climate change and its impact hence we have seen that it is going to inculcate that curriculum of climate change into its subject so to make awareness about this climate change in all the agriculture universities ok so this is the basic about NAHEP now what are the components the first one is ICR to support agricultural universities either by giving support a technical technological support or even grants to the agriculture university that is the first one the next one is investment in ICR leadership that means providing R&D and providing FDI in this areas also providing investments and encouraging investments from foreign as well as country so these are the second point investment in ICR leadership the next one is project management and learning so implementation of all the NAHEP projects and managing all the areas is the basic components of this project so hence this is about NAHEP which is to develop agriculture higher education and to make it as a quality education for all the agriculture university students ok so this is about NAHEP now let's move on to our next main topic health sector it is actually about a editorial perspective we see about the health sector and its present scenario and what are the way forward ok now what is the health care sector ok the health care sector comprise of all the hospitals medical devices clinical trials outsourcing telemedicine so all these comprises together form this health care sector ok so now health care doesn't mean only hospitals it includes all the peripheral areas ok now this in this health care sector hospital industry alone contributes to 80% of health care market ok and this medical tourism is actually doubling each year the last it was 3 billion dollars of industry now it is going to 6 billion industry hence the medical tourism is doubling year on year ok that is also an important perspective next diagnostic industries is also increasing and it contributes to 25 percentage of this organized sector in the health care industry but whereas the primary health care in organized sector is practically negligible mostly in rural areas ok so this is about the health care sector now let's see what are the present scenario in this health care sector first so we are seeing a further consolidation in 2019 that means due to various regulations and rules the health care industries are merging together ok many of the global players are investing in Indian health care sector and making it is the vast industries so that is the first point so what happens to this because of the consolidation and also the rules and regulations the smaller establishments are becoming unviable they cannot stand up to the present scenario of consolidation of the larger industries which are having a huge potential of growth that makes this smaller establishments more unviable ok and what are the other scenarios here the rules and regulations conducted by the government are constantly changing so that also affects the health care system so this is the third scenario of this health sector now other things Aishman Bharat national health protection scheme which is also known as Pratana Mandri Jan Aarogya that is also in Vogue now ok it aims for providing health care sector to 5 lakh families covering 10 crore people as of December 6 6 lakh people have covered under this scheme ok now what are the other scenarios the out-of-pocket expenditure of India is increased to 62 percentage whereas world level it is just 5 percentage all the brick countries are ahead of us in the out-of-pocket expenditure so the major interesting thing is within 2025 the extreme poverty situation in India is going to be less than 1 percentage so there is no person to be without with hunger but the problem here is most of the people will get into the low income or the middle income groups but this health care shock will make them again dive into this out-of-pocket expenditure and they'll again come below the poverty line so this is the consequence of this out-of-pocket expenditure and the year-on-year the medical inflation is also frightening ok it is developing between 15 to 20 12 to 15 percentage year-on-year so that also shows the out-of-pocket expenditure will become higher in the coming years ok now the Indian doctors and nurses for the population is actually very less ok so we need at least 3 million doctors and 3.6 million hospitals by 2034 but the problem here is one single doctor looks after 1,800 people that is a scenario in India ok now this population growth rate has also slowed sharply so hence this health care sector must look after the technologies for developing this population growth rate ok now other things the burden of maternal and child mortality and infectious disease are actually increasing and also non communicable diseases like the diabetes sugar high blood pressure is also increasing so we must look after the non communicable diseases as well ok now the hunger is not an issue now but the problem of anemia and malnutrition is highly evident in India so mostly in the northern areas ok hence this ever-growing cost of this medical industry health care sector both from the patient side as well as a service provider is actually making it as a double burden for health care sector and added to this we have limited resources for this medical industries and there are high attrition rate that means the leaving of these medical industries are becoming higher and higher and people are choosing for higher education in foreign countries and they are preferring to work in foreign countries neglecting the prospects of this Indian scenario see these are the present scenarios in the health care sectors now what can be done so first one is we have to channelize funds from banking sector to create health care infrastructure so this can be done with the help of ministry of finance to channelize funds for developing the health care infrastructure and providing new technologies the next one is the largest long-time demand of national priority status so that it will give importance for both budget progress as well as in the industrial area of promoting health care sectors and we need and liberalized FDI region so that the foreign investors can give so much of investment into these this health care sector and we have to reduce the import duty of life-saving equipment or even extend some of the duties for life-saving equipment which will make the health care sector far less expensive okay next one is health insurance purchase so India has the lowest health insurance purchase nearly 76% of Indians do not have insurance coverage so hence we must develop or encourage citizens to take up health insurance purchase and we have to focus on long-term financing options not short-term one so these are the problems which are the progress we can done okay and what are the other things biomedical engineering so engineering into biomedical arena is actually a new progress even we can see that ventilators which are used for breathing problems of patients it was initially very difficult to get the pace of the patient but due to this biomedical engineering the ventilator can sense the breathing pattern of the patients and it can work accordingly so these are the major benefits of biomedical engineering so we have to look after this biomedical engineering and also preventive medicines that will actually reduce the cost of health care sector once it is diagnosed previously and it is cured okay the next one the Indian economy is whether ready for it as we have a good regulation pattern now we have a good infrastructure to drive towards a disruptive change which means we can develop health care sectors evidently due to one thing via viability gap funding so we can take up the unviable projects and we can give finance to those projects and develop the health care sector that is the one thing and the GST in India that has made a one tax one nation target so this will also reduces the health care sectors taxations and that will provide more incentive for the health care sectors this digital drive and demontization of the government has actually crumpled in the initial time but now it can give so much of influence like telemedicine also like online conferencing with the doctors that will also improve the health care sector then stringent price controls that will reduce the cost of life-saving equipments which will become less expensive for the patients to afford okay then national accreditation board for hospitals and their compliances that will make the industries more transparent and accountable and also the government's encouragement for startups in health care services that will develop innovations into these health care sectors which will become more cheaper and less expensive so this is about the way forward okay then what can be done the problem here is the most of the doctors and the professionals are preferring for the metropolitan area leaving the rural area behind hence there must be incentives for the doctors and also give industrial status for this health care sector so that it will become a competitive market and the rural areas can be explored and the health care can be given for even the downtrodden people and the remote area people so this is about the health care sector so with this I conclude today's
