Hon'ble MoS (I/C), Ministry of Earth Sciences, @DrJitendraSingh, responded in the Rajya Sabha to an Unstarred Question in a written reply on INDIGENOUS WARNING SYSTEMS Stated that: - The National Centre for Seismology (NCS), under the Ministry of Earth Sciences (MoES), monitors earthquakes across the country 24x7 through its National Seismological Network, comprising 174 seismological observatories. - The earthquake early warning approach detects the initial, non-damaging P-waves, enabling alerts to be issued before the arrival of stronger ground shaking, depending on the distance from the earthquake source. - The funds allocated to NCS are being used to develop an Earthquake Early Warning (EEW) system in the pilot phase. - The India Meteorological Department (IMD) provides impact-based forecasts and early warnings for various meteorological hazards, including cloudbursts, to support disaster preparedness and response, particularly in Himalayan States. pib.gov.in/PressReleasePage.… @narendramodi @mygovindia @PMOIndia @OfficeOfDrJS

The Ministry of Earth Sciences (MoES) hosted a press conference on the Second Stage "Long Range Forecast of the Southwest Monsoon for 2026" under the chairmanship of Dr. M. Ravichandran (@Ravi_MoES), Secretary, @moesgoi, alongside Dr. Mrutyunjay Mohapatra, Director General of Meteorology, India Meteorological Department (@Indiametdept), and senior officials. MoES-IMD predicted below normal rainfall over the country as a whole during the June–September southwest monsoon season, estimated at 90% of the Long Period Average (LPA). While Northeast India is likely to receive normal rainfall, Northwest, Central, and South Peninsular India may witness below normal rainfall. The forecast also highlighted the possible development of El Niño conditions during the monsoon season, while neutral Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) conditions are expected to continue. #MoES #IMD pib.gov.in/PressReleasePage.… @narendramodi @mygovindia @DrJitendraSingh @OfficeOfDrJS @PIBEarthScience @PIB_India @MIB_India

#WorldTuberculosisDay: "Glad to have launched first-of-its-kind global clinical study integrating Ayurveda with modern TB care regimens; moving a step closer to 'TB Mukt Bharat', as envisaged by PM @narendramodi. Modern science and traditional knowledge come together for holistic management with better outcomes. Patient-centric, integrated approach is the key to TB elimination. India already seeing steady decline in TB incidence through innovation. India, which accounts for nearly 25% of the global TB burden, has registered a significant decline in incidence to about 187 cases per 100,000 population in 2024, reflecting a 21% reduction since 2015 Whole-of-science, whole-of-government approach promises to drive scientific validation of Allopathy + Ayurveda strategies for mankind, with Ayurveda's strong potential as adjuvant supportive therapy".
