India has an estimated 20.9 lakh people living with HIV. However, nearly 30 -35 percent of these do not know there HIV status. After a person gets infected with HIV, there is a long asymptomatic period of 5-8 years when infected person may not have any symptoms till his immunity goes down significantly and he start getting different opportunistic infection like TB, diarrhoea, fungal infection etc. Hence most of the HIV infected persons present to health system in late stage when immunity is very low and their response to treatment may not be optimal. Also during this long asymptomatic period of 5-8 years, though they are infected but may not be aware of HIV status and are capable of spreading the infection their spouse or others if they continue to indulge unprotected sex.

Early detection of PLHIV is beneficial for patient himself as he can receive timely appropriate treatment including ART as well as for the community to stop further transmission of HIV.

We invite suggestion from community/ NGO/ CBO/ Civil society and public at large their views/ ideas on How to facilitate early detection of People Living with HIV (PLHIV) and put them on ART as soon as possible.

How about putting a heavier tax on cigarrettes and alchohol? This will reduce the number of alchoholics and chain smokers and generate more revenue for the government as well. Lesser addiction to these substances will reduce violence towards women and bring down cancer risk among the population as well. Healthy Indians, Productive India!

In order to have neat and clean environment we need to cover naked mud with grass in our cities at least in the first attempt. It will make our environment cleaner and less polluted. If the naked mud is covered with grass our houses, our clothes, our streets, our atmosphere and everything else shall become cleaner. Washing expenditure of our clothes, automobiles shall also come down significantly. This way our usage of brooms inside aswell as outside our houses shall diminish very significantly.
