Medical notes: Water best first remedy for burns
Shraddha from Jan Swsthya Sahyog in Ganiari, Bilaspur in Chhattisgarh says that first aid does not require specialists, and can save a life. If someone has experienced a burn due to fire, electric shock, or hot oil, clean cold water should be used immediately, and then the area kept cool by applying it repeatedly. Boils help the skin heal faster because they retain liquid inside. If the area burnt is more than 20%, professional help in a hospital is a must. The sufferer should not be given water to drink in severe burn cases, as it can cause him to vomit blood. For more Shraddha can be reached at 09981367731

Follow up : Non working handpump : Officer non responsive
Priyanka Borpujari from Mumbai says she called up the Block officer Balwant Singh following up the complaint for the non working hand pump from 7 months from Seema of District Rewa Madhya Pradesh. The message was recorded in Swara couple of days back. But the officer washed his hands off the matter, and said he could only ask the Panchayat officer, as the handpump had been out of order for seven months and why no one had complained earlier.
