DMA REJECTS THE RECOMMENDATION OF THE 7TH PAY COMMISSION
When the recommendations of 7th pay commission came out, the government medical practitioners were shocked after the government reduced the Non-Practicing Allowance (NON-PRACTICING ALLOWANCE), an allowance given exclusively to doctors, from 25% to 20%. Moreover, the 7thPay commission had delinked the NON-PRACTICING ALLOWANCE from the basic pay for further calculations such as HRA. Doctors had objected to the same, and demanded that NON-PRACTICING ALLOWANCE to be at least maintained at the status quo (as per the recommendations of the 6th Pay commission).
As you all know, the The Union Cabinet chaired by the Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi recently approved the recommendations of the 7th CPC on allowances with some modifications. However, the medical profession has been completely sidelined as the government has ignored all its demands.
Dr. Vijay Kr. Malhotra President , DMA Delhi Medical Association and the whole medical profession strongly feels deceived by this act whereby medical community is the only section where the pay by the 7th cpc has been decreased. The promised increase in NON-PRACTICING ALLOWANCE 25% to 40% and consideration of NON-PRACTICING ALLOWANCE as part of Basic pay for calculation of HRA has not been considered and NON-PRACTICING ALLOWANCE has been removed from basic pay for the propose of calculation of HRA.
Dr. Vijay Malhotra President DMA said “NON-PRACTICING ALLOWANCE is a basic right of a government doctor. Even the courts, in their decisions have stated that it is not a special allowance but a part of the basic pay. Government cannot delink from the basic pay. We clearly reject the recommendations of the 7th pay commission.”
Dr. Satish Tyagi, Hony. State Secretary, DMA said “Delhi medical association & whole Delhi service doctors fraternity opposes recommendations of 7th pay commission to be applicable from 01/07/2017 (what a gift by govt. on doctors’ day to doctors ) !! Reducing instead of increasing Non-Practicing Allowance from 25% to 20% and delinking Non-Practicing Allowance from basic salary is a severe jolt to in service medical fraternity!! Delhi medical association stands with them & plans strong reaction & action soon”
For the same a general body meeting of the association has been called on Saturday the 08/07/2017 to decide our future plan of action against this act of betrayal by the Govt of India.

GERMAN PARLIAMENT TOUGH LAW FOR SOCIAL MEDIA
German parliament on Friday approved a plan to fine great example of such up to 50 million euros ($57. 04 million) if they fail to eliminate hateful postings quickly, despite problems the law could limit free manifestation.
Is this German law empowers the government with such massive fine for the social networks to be fearful while writing on the net. Is this is an exercise to take speedy by the government to take action against rumour mongers.
The German parliament on Friday approved a plan to fine social networks up to €50 million if they fail to remove hateful postings quickly, despite concerns the law could limit free expression.
The measure requires social media platforms to remove obviously illegal hate speech and other postings within 24 hours after receiving a notification or complaint, and to block other offensive content within seven days.
Germany has some of the world’s toughest laws covering defamation, public incitement to commit crimes and threats of violence.
But few online cases are prosecuted.
Germany’s Merkel voted against gay marriage
German Chancellor Angela Merkel said on Friday she voted against legalizing gay marriage given her personal view that marriage should be between a man and a woman, but she hoped parliament’s approval of the measure would lead to more social cohesion.“For me, marriage in the basic law is marriage between a man and a woman and that is why I did not vote in favor of this bill today,” she said moments after the 393-266 vote in favor of an amendment that will legalize same-sex marriage. “I hope that the vote today not only promotes respect between different opinions but also brings more social cohesion and peace, she added

New Delhi, 28 June 2017
French embassy and Institutes of French are making dedicated efforts for students across India with scholarship, sponsorship,training,participation for Indian students to study and participate in their national sports events. One such events are enumerated here for the benefits of the Indian students to prepare and compete globally.
The Section for Science and Technology (SST) of Institut français India, French Embassy in India, is pleased to announce its support for IIT engineer Sushil Reddy, selected to participate as a Special Guest in the solar bicycle rally, “Sun Trip Tour 2017”. Organised by the French ‘Sun Trip Company’, the solar bike rally will take place from 8 to 21 July, 2017. It will pass through some of France’s most beautiful landscapes in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, and cross two neighboring countries, Switzerland and Italy.
Mumbai IITian Sushil Reddy is the Guinness World Record holder for the longest journey on a motorised bicycle. Using a solar-powered motorised bicycle to raise awareness about solar energy, he made a trip around India between 8 May and 25 July 2016, which started and ended in Mumbai, covering a distance of 7,423.88 km
From a young age, Sushil Reddy has displayed deep commitment to promoting low-cost, clean, sustainable energy, both in his academic and personal life. He has contributed greatly towards this by using science, technology, education and tourism.
A month prior to joining the Sun Trip Tour, Sushil embarked on his own Tour de France with his solar bicycle from 1st June to 2nd July 2017, again in a bid to promote the use of solar energy. Starting from Istres, his journey has led him to Toulouse, Bordeaux, La-Roche-sur-Yon, Rennes, Le Mans, Paris, and will finally take him to Lyon. In each city, he is holding seminars and meeting students in universities like Ecole Centrale, Instituts Polytechniques and HEC Paris, with fruitful discussions on the challenges of using solar energy.
Indo-French collaboration
Renewable energy – and solar energy, in particular – is one of the key areas of the Indo-French partnership, involving academics, industry captains and other stakeholders from both the countries, who are collaborating in this fast-growing and promising sector.

INDIA BEAT WEST INDIES
India, stunned hosts England with a 35-run victory, also made it two wins from two as they overpowered the West Indies by seven wickets at Taunton on Thursday.
Opener Smriti Mandhana got to three figures with an unbeaten 106 following her 90 against England.
She added 108 runs for the third wicket with captain Mithali Raj (46) after India were in trouble at 33 for two chasing a modest 184.
“Smriti played well for her hundred, it was a crucial innings she played,” said Raj.
India´s spinners made life so tough for the West Indies that even the usually dynamic Deandra Dottin — holder of the fastest century in women´s T20Is — could manage a mere seven off 48 balls.
The West Indies slumped to 91 for six before some late-order hitting boosted the total.
“We didn´t get the batting right in the middle,” admitted West Indies captain Stafanie (attn eds: correct) Taylor. “We have the batters to do it but I think it´s up to the batters to take more responsibility in their actions.”
All the eight teams involved play each other once, with the top four contesting the semi-finals.
The final takes place at Lord´s on July 23.
