#LucknowUniversity परिवार को 100 वर्ष पूरा होने पर हार्दिक बधाई। सौ वर्ष के इस सफ़र में अनेक उपलब्धियों का एक जीता जागता इतिहास जुड़ा है।

विश्वविद्यालय के #CentennialFoundationDay पर आज PM श्री @narendramodi जी की उपस्थिति और उनका आशीर्वाद काफ़ी मायने रखता है।

University सिर्फ़ उच्च शिक्षा का ही केंद्र नहीं होती, ये ऊंचे संकल्पों, ऊंचे लक्ष्यों को साधने की एक बहुत बड़ी ऊर्जा भूमि होती है।

#LucknowUniversity के #CentennialFoundationDay पर PM श्री @narendramodi जी के एक-एक शब्द छात्रों और शिक्षकों के भीतर की ताक़त को जगाते प्रतीत हुए।
PM श्री @narendramodi जी का छात्रों को शानदार संदेश -

छात्र जीवन को Enjoy भी कीजिए, Encourage भी कीजिए।

माननीय PM श्री @narendramodi जी, #कोरोना के खिलाफ़ लड़ाई में सभी राज्यों व संघ शासित प्रदेशों को साथ लेकर चलने की आपकी पहल के लिए हृदय से आभार। अदम्य साहस और अटूट समर्पण के साथ तूफ़ान से लड़ना और संकट की घड़ी में सबको साथ लेकर चलना यही तो आपकी पहचान रही है।

@PMOIndia #COVID19 ImageImageImageImage
PM श्री @narendramodi जी ने #कोरोना की स्थिति पर सभी राज्पों के CMs व संघ शासित प्रदेशों के साथ संवाद कर संकट की घड़ी में विश्वास का भाव भरने की कोशिश की है।

उनकी चिंता देश के लोगों को जल्द #vaccine उपलब्ध कराने की है, लेकिन उन्हें लोगों की Safety की भी चिंता है।
@PMOIndia
#CovidVaccine प्राथमिकता के आधार पर किसे लगाई जाएगी, ये राज्यों के साथ मिलकर तय किया जाएगा।

PM श्री @narendramodi जी की नीति हर राज्य के सुझाव को महत्व देना है, क्योंकि आख़िरकार उनको अंदाज़ा है कि उनके राज्यों में कैसे काम होगा।

It was noted that despite being resource constrained and densely populated, timely #lockdown & rapid augmentation of infrastructure by India have helped to keep the case/ million & deaths/million considerably lower as compared to other countries

@PMOIndia @MoHFW_INDIA
Within the country, eight States (#Maharashtra, #Karnataka, #AndhraPradesh, #TamilNadu, #UttarPradesh, #WestBengal, #Odisha and #Telangana) contribute to around 73% of the active caseload, as of today

@PMOIndia @MoHFW_INDIA #GoM
Moreover, seven States (#Maharashtra, #Delhi, #TamilNadu, #AndhraPradesh, #Karnataka, #UttarPradesh and #WestBengal) account for 81% of total deaths.

ZyCoV-D, the plasmid DNA vaccine designed & developed by @ZydusUniverse & partially funded by @DBTIndia has initiated Phase I/ II clinical trials in healthy subjects, making it the first indigenously developed vaccine for #COVID19 to be administered in humans in India.@IndiaDST
The adaptive Phase I/ II dose-escalation, multi-centric study will assess the safety & immunogenicity of the #vaccine. The human dosing of the vaccine marks a key milestone since the launching of the accelerated vaccine development programme for #COVID19 in Feb 2020. @DBTIndia
This is an important milestone for #AtmaNirbharBharat. I hope that the vaccine continues to show positive outcomes as it has done so far in the pre-clinical phase where it was found to be safe, immunogenic and well-tolerated.

Testing is crucial to beat #COVID19!

Stepping up efforts in this regard, @IITGuwahati, in association with RR Animal Healthcare Ltd & Guwahati Medical College & Hospital, has developed low-cost diagnostic kits.
@IndiaDST @ICMRDELHI #AatmanirbharBharat
The swabs have been designed ergonomically with a pre-moulded breakpoint on their shaft for enabling secure sampling.

@IndiaDST @IITGuwahati @ICMRDELHI #AatmanirbharBharat
These are Viral Transport Media (VTM) kits, RT-PCR kits & RNA isolation kits. The VTM kits are the first-stop source used to collect nasal & oral swab specimens from an individual source to a laboratory safely for culture and testing.
