Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi will launch high throughput COVID-19 testing facilities on 27th July via video conferencing. These facilities will ramp up testing capacity in the country and help in strengthening early detection and treatment, thus assisting in controlling the spread of the pandemic.

These three high-throughput testing facilities have been set up strategically at ICMR-National Institute of Cancer Prevention and Research, Noida; ICMR-National Institute for Research in Reproductive Health, Mumbai; and ICMR-National Institute of Cholera and Enteric Diseases, Kolkata, and will be able to test over 10,000 samples in a day. These labs will also reduce turn-around-time and exposure of lab personnel to infectious clinical materials. The labs are enabled to test diseases other than COVID as well, and post the pandemic, will be able to test for Hepatitis B and C, HIV, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Cytomegalovirus, Chlamydia, Neisseria, Dengue, etc.

Union Minister for Health & Family Welfare and Science & Technology, along with Chief Ministers of Maharashtra, West Bengal and Uttar Pradesh will be participating in the event.

মহান বঙ্কিম চন্দ্র চট্টোপাধ্যায়ের জয়ন্তীতে তাঁর প্রতি শ্রদ্ধাঞ্জলি।

এক সুবিশাল সাহিত্যিক আলোকবর্তিকা হিসেবে, তাঁর লেখা প্রজন্মান্তরের ভারতীয়দের মধ্যে দেশপ্রেম এবং সাংস্কৃতিক গৌরবের চেতনা জাগ্রত করেছিল। তাঁর সমৃদ্ধ সাহিত্যকর্ম মনকে উদ্ভাসিত করে চলেছে এবং জাতি গঠনের প্রতি আমাদের সম্মিলিত সংকল্পকে শক্তিশালী করছে।

এখন আমরা বন্দে মাতরমের ১৫০তম বার্ষিকী উদযাপন করছি। বন্দে মাতরমের মাধ্যমে, তিনি স্বাধীনতা আন্দোলন এবং আমাদের জাতিকে অন্যতম দীর্ঘস্থায়ী অনুপ্রেরণা উপহার দিয়েছিলেন।
