Jamshedpur youth selling mobile covers cracks NEET with 549 marks

RANCHI: 20-year-old Rohit Kumar from Jamshedpur, who sold mobile phone covers from a roadside cart, has cracked the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET-UG), securing 549 marks. With an All India Rank of 12,484, he now hopes to secure admission to a government medical college in Jharkhand. Kumar shared that his father once worked in a vegetable market, and he now runs a small shop alongside his elder brother to support their family. He began his education at a government school before moving to a private institution with a modest fee of Rs 800. Following Class 10, the COVID-19 pandemic forced him to take up work at a medical store an experience that sparked his interest in medicine. Initially unaware of NEET, Rohit chose Physics, Chemistry and Biology in Class 11 and managed to top his board exams despite juggling work and studies. He would sell mobile covers by day and study late into the night, often staying up until 3 AM, before starting again at 7 AM the next morning. Though I was confident I would clear NEET, I never imagined Id score this well. I studied till noon, then went to the shop from 12 to around 4 PM, returned home and continued studying till midnight, he said. He credited his success to the unwavering support of his brother and the free coaching provided by Physics Wallah. On average, we earned around Rs 500 a day from selling mobile covers to support our family. Physics Wallah didnt charge me anything for coaching I was given a free batch based on my performance in the second attempt, Kumar added. He also attended free YouTube sessions offered by the coaching platform. Kumar stressed the importance of sticking to the NCERT syllabus, practising thoroughly, and revising regularly. One should focus on NCERT books and follow the syllabus strictly. Practice and revision are the key, he advised. In a heartwarming moment captured on video, Physics Wallah founder and CEO Alakh Pandey visited Rohit at his cart to personally congratulate him. The video, shared by the platform, shows Pandey embracing Rohit and acknowledging his hard work and dedication. Rohit was part of the 'Ummeed' batch a free coaching programme offered by Physics Wallah for NEET 2025 aspirants. After meeting Rohit, it's evident that for children like him, studying isnt a choice it's a necessity. Its truly a pleasure to meet such inspiring individuals, said Pandey.

Village Panchayat in Jharkhand passes resolution to reject witchcraft-related complaints

RANCHI: A village panchayat in Jharkhand's Jamshedpur has passed a resolution for not hearing any case related to witch-hunting. According to the Gram Pradhan of Sarjamda village under Jamshedpur Block of Jamshedpur, the decision has been taken in the wake of the growing incidents of killing women and elders after branding them as witches during Panchayat meetings. Not only that, the Gram Panchayat has also amended the rules of the traditional self-governance system, under which, if anyone approaches the Gram Sabha with a complaint accusing a woman or anybody of practicing black magic, his or her complaint will not be entertained. As per the amended constitution, there is no such thing as a witch or witchcraft. Gram Pradhan Suresh Hansda, also known as Manjhi Baba, informed that if someone comes to the Gram Sabha with an application accusing someone of being a witch, it is rejected outrightly and the person referred for counselling, during which, they are told that it is nothing but superstition. Not a single case of witchcraft has recorded in the region after the resolution was taken by the Gram Sabha a few years back, which clearly indicates that the purpose has been solved, said Hansda. Earlier, our forefathers were illiterate, who used to believe in such superstitions, but now after becoming literate, there should not be any space for such thing in society, he added. The resolution not taken orally, but in writing formally on the Panchayat register, said Hansda. Block Development Officer (BDO) Malay Kumar also lauded the initiative taken by Gram Panchayat, calling it a welcome step. As most of the witch-hunting cases are targeted towards the women and elderly, it is really a welcome step, which will further help in checking such incidents, said the Block Development Officer. Other Panchayats should also follow the suit as it has effectively worked in this particular Panchayat, he added. Civil Society Organisations also called it a landmark decision. Such initiative will further inspire other Panchayats to take similar decision as more than 2000 women have been killed the name of practicing black magic across Jharkhand since the state came into being in the year 2000, said Secretary of Association for Social and Humar Awareness (ASHA) Ajay Jaiswal. Padma Shri recipient and social worker, known for raising her voice against the witch-hunting, Chhutni Mahato, also believes that the incidents of murder on the pretext of being a witch could only be stopped when the society becomes aware. Panchayats have an important role to play to check this menace as the decisions of Panchayats are paramount in tribal villages. If initiatives are being taken against such superstitions in tribal panchayats, then it will yield positive results, said Chhutni Mahto. Notably, there are a lot of instances in Jharkhand where people were killed following a decision taken by the Panchayat, branding them as witches. Tribal-dominated Jharkhand, Odisha, Chhattisgarh and Telangana are the worst affected states. Hundreds of women have been persecuted, tortured and killed in the garb of witchcraft in past few decades in these four states.

No essential medicines to be sold without QR Code: Jharkhand Health Minister Irfan Ansari

RANCHI: Health Minister Dr Irfan Ansari said that no essential medicine could be sold in Jharkhand without having a QR Code on it. According to the Health Minister, the decision was taken to curb fake drug business in the state. QR code will make it easier for the public to differentiate between fake and original medicines with the help of a scanner in the phone. Ansari also made it clear that painkillers, vitamin supplements, diabetes control medicines, contraceptive pills and antiplatelet, thyroid, anti-allergy and other medicines will not be sold in the state without QR code. On scanning the QR code, important information related to the medicine, like the manufacturing license, batch number, could be obtained easily, said the Health Minister. The QR code will become the wall between fake and real medicines, he added. Giving a final warning to the drug dealers and shopkeepers, the Health Minister also said that if any shop is found operating without registration, it will be sealed and its license will be cancelled. Notably, the Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation (CDSCO) has made barcode or QR code mandatory on 300 types of medicines from August 1, 2023. In addition to that, the Health Minister also announced that drug testing labs will be set up in Dumka, Jamshedpur and Palamu to check the quality of medicines. Also, food testing labs will be set up in the said districts to check adulteration in food items, he said. The drug testing lab and food testing lab operating in Ranchi will also be improved and made state-of-the-art. Food items being sold in all malls, hotels and restaurants will be tested, and raids will be conducted across the state by running a campaign to check adulteration of food, said Ansari.
