SHRI ADHIR RANJAN CHOWDHURY (BAHARAMPUR) Sir there is an adage
that a stitch in time saves nine I think our hon Health Minister is one of the
eminent doctors in the world Not only that he has been recently promoted as
Chairman Executive Board of World Health Organisation So he knows
everything I know that there is a severe time constraint So I do not want to
elaborate anything But to two or three points I would like to draw the attention
of the hon Minister
Since the beginning everything has been done in a haphazard way
Haphazard travel restriction आपन किया Shortage of emergency supplies and
red-tapism यह एि बड़ा िारण ह Delay in ordering testing kits यह आपि किए बड़ी
कििायत ह The most important point is regarding the loss of life of health
professionals and the response of the Government of India यह कितन दख िी बात
ह No country has lost as many doctors and healthcare workers as India has to
the pandemic The IMA recently said ldquoDoctors suffer four times the mortality of
ordinary citizens and private practitioners suffer eight times as muchrdquo The IMA
demands that all the doctors should be given the status of martyrs and it has
submitted a list of at least 382 doctors who died from COVID-19 across the
country But the Government denies of having any information of death of any
doctor and health professional
How can our Health Minister feign ignorance He himself is a doctor
Who understands better than him I just wonder if the Government has
maintained the statistics of the total number of doctors and healthcare workers
infected by COVID-19 and the statistics of how many of them sacrificed their life
due to the pandemic It loses the moral authority to administer the Epidemic Act
1897 and the Disaster Management Act अभी ति सरिार न सवीिार नही किया ह कि
िमयकनटी टाासकििन हो रहा ह हि चाहग कि हरष वरषन जी इस बार ि हि इनिाइटन िर ि जानता
ह ा कि हि बोिन ि किए िि सिय ह किर भी ि िहना चाहता ह ा कि अगर हि सोची सिझी एि
सटटजी िर कदन स बनात तो िझ िगता ह कि इस तरह ि हािात िायद पदा नही होत The
global and humongous dimension of epidemic is known to all of us So epidemic
cannot be prevented but the intensity of epidemic the intensity of pandemic
could have been mitigated The measure of mitigation was not up to the mark
I must raise this point

Secondly I have a little doubt insofar as the number of deaths taking place
under Corona in our country are concerned It is because I think there is a
serious under-reporting of deaths in our country I do not know how many
hospitals of our country can issue the medical certification for causing of death
सर कहनद पपर ि एि िॉिि ि हिात दीपि िवाड और कगररडर गोपाि परििरन किखा था
(2100SMNSK)
According to the latest vital statistics of India based on the civil registration
system 86 per cent of the total deaths were registered out of which 22 per cent
had a medically certified cause of death This means 189 per cent of the total
death was medically certified with a cause of death To adjust for the prevailing
under-registration of deaths and poor coverage of MCCD we can multiply the
reported COVID-19 deaths by a multiplication factor of 529 for India and
calculated as the inverse of 189 per cent among total deaths based on 2018
CRS
This estimated COVID-19 death per million population is higher than
Russia It is similar to South Africa It is lower than USA It is 99 per cent in
Brazil It is 10 per cent MCCD in Mexico It is 95 per cent MCCD in Chile It is
95 per cent in Spain Even in Iran it is 90 per cent MCCD
Madhya Pradesh West Bengal UP Bihar and Jharkhand constitute 43
per cent of national population These States with 12 per cent MCCD coverage
and less than 10000 COVID-19 test per million contribute to 38 per cent of the
total estimated COVID-19 death

DR UMESH G JADHAV (GULBARGA) Thank you Speaker Sir for giving
me this opportunity to speak in this august House on COVID-19 pandemic that
is facing the country
As we all know the first case of COVID-19 was found in Kerala on January
30 2020 and the first death due to COVID-19 was reported on March 11 2020
in Kalaburagi district of Karnataka which falls in my parliamentary constituency
It was marked as the countryrsquos first fatality from the global pandemic
The first ever COVID-19 case was recorded in China last year Since then
the virus has spread around the world and in January 2020 it was declared as
pandemic by the World Health Organisation
I would like to tell the House that a research had revealed that India may
record nearly 13 lakh COVID-19 positive cases by mid-May if the spread of virus
is not contained by taking stringent measures and implementing restrictions
India witnessed 101139 COVID-19 cases by 18th May 2020 Initially it was
considered that India was dealing well in containing the number of COVID-19
cases by maintaining social distance and thereby a constricted transmission of
the disease during lockdown period
I would like to say that both the Central Government and the State
Government of Karnataka are working intensely to keep the number of COVID-
19 positive cases minimum The Government is taking all necessary steps ndash by
involving public medical associations nurses NGOs police forces including
paramilitary forces - to combat the challenges and threat posed by this growing
invisible pandemic war The earnest efforts on the part of the frontline workers
especially the doctors nurses healthcare staff sanitation workers police
personnel volunteers with the active support of people of India have resulted in
making the treatment of the patients possible and thereby in controlling this
pandemic
In March we started with only few testing centres performing less than
100 tests per day On 18th September India has conducted over 1000000 tests
in a single day and is having as many as 1764 COVID-19 testing laboratories

The Union Government has announced a Rs20 lakh crore recovery
package to revive our economy A small component of this was allocated to the
Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act as well
I would like to mention that NREGA has offered opportunity to the migrant
workers who were forced to return to their homes jobless to earn their
livelihood In Kalaburagi district more than 55000 migrant workers who were
working in the Capital and other major cities returned home and around 12 lakh
workers moved within the State From 1st April 2020 to 15th September 2020
under NREGA there has been a huge rise in creation of Job Cards and as many
as 98424 people have been enrolled for getting new Job Card Under
MGNREGA approximately 140750 families have been benefitted From 1st
April 2020 to 15th September 2020 4263404 man-days have been generated
This number itself shows how MGNREGA has brought changes in the livelihood
of many families
This pandemic has also seen a huge rise in the number of people who
have taken agriculture as the primary occupation for their livelihood In any case
agriculture is arguably the least affected sectors of the economy It is seen as
the only bright spot in an otherwise dismal economic state which is poised to
gain and is likely to lead the economyrsquos revival process
The bumper rabi harvest is a good sign but farm labour economy has been
adversely affected There has been a large-scale reverse migration of workers
from urban and rural work destinations This will at least in the short run add
workers to the rural work force
In the short run wages are likely to remain sticky and we will witness a
significant increase in demand for work under MGNREGA especially in source
areas which are invariably the poorest If implemented well MGNREGA can
paly an important role in making sure that workers find work and contribute to
improving agriculture sectorrsquos outlook
MGNREGA has another important role which becomes particularly crucial
in COVID-19 pandemic By adopting best practices it acts as a beacon for
establishing the terms of engagement for hiring labour in rural areas In making
an Atmanirbhar Bharat an additional Rs40000 crore has been allocated to
MGNREGA for creation of jobs in Indiarsquos hinterland Earlier in the Budget for
this financial year the Government had allocated Rs61000 crore to
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 362
MGNREGA Thus for the first time ever the total allocation made to MGNREGA
for any financial year comes to over Rs100000 crore
Finally the effectiveness of MGNREGA as a tool for post-COVID-19 rural
economic recovery will depend on three things
1 Whether the local administration is equipped to implement it as a
demand-driven programme
2 Whether village panchayats are well-equipped to take advantage of
it and
3 Whether useful assets are created that will boost local agrarian
economy
With this I would like to conclude my speech Thank you

SHRI DUSHYANT SINGH (JHALAWAR-BARAN) Hon Speaker Sir I thank
you for letting me participate in this discussion on ldquoCOVID-19 Pandemic in the
Countryrdquo under Rule 193
Firstly I would like to thank our hon Prime Minister for his vision and
leadership to drive the country through the pandemic I am sure Speaker Sir
the worst of the pandemic is behind us With declining growth of active cases
and fatality ratio the nation will emerge out stronger from the crisis
It is sad to know that till now more than 85000 people have died in the
country due to the COVID-19 pandemic But I would also like to mention that
India is one of the few countries in the world with lowest mortality rate below 4
per cent even when the mortality rate peaked in April I would like to mention
that in the month of May at the global level the mortality rate had peaked at
more than 7 per cent levels
It is due to the timely measures taken by our hon Prime Minister Shri
Narendra Modi that we have been able to maintain less than 3 of mortality
rate and have successfully continued to reduce the mortality rate below 2 per
cent levels today
Today in India the rate of growth of active cases has fallen to 07 per
cent we can soon expect the growth rate of active cases to fall down close to
zero per cent which is essentially known as ldquoFlattening of the curverdquo for active
cases India has done appreciable job in reducing mortality rate as compared to
the developed economies of the West We all should unanimously appreciate
and laud the Prime Minister for his quick decisions and guidance for the country
It is really sad to see that some States being one of the most developed
States of the country Maharashtra is failing to reduce Test Positivity Rate below
20 per cent It is saddening to see one in every five persons tested testing
positive Many States have done commendable job in increasing testing and
maintaining lower test positivity rate and lower case fatality rate

Secondly we must appreciate the efforts made by doctors nurses para-
medical staff in such times In such difficult times the police forces bureaucrats
have been working overtime away from their family I bow down to them for their
service to the nation in such difficult times There have been a lot of NGOs
thousands of volunteers who have supported the efforts of Government in
checking the spread of COVID-19 virus
I have learnt that about 382 doctors have died on duty the country shall
forever be indebted to them for their service and sacrifice I request the
Government to acknowledge their sacrifice and provide them with appropriate
compensation for their service
Further I also thank all my colleagues from Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha
for their service to the people of their constituency the migrant workers and the
citizens of India during the lockdown
Speaker Sir in my constituency of Jhalawar-Baran along with the
Karyakartas of Bharatiya Janata Party our teams have distributed food packets
dry ration kits ayurvedic kaadha masks sanitizers and even footwear to
migrant workers irrespective of their cast and religion
In Baran district the Karyakarta of BJP have distributed 3700 ration kits
about more than 12 lakh cooked food packet 15000 people were distributed
ayurvedic kaadha We distributed about 32000 masks in socio-economically
backward regions of Baran district In Baran we even helped and supported the
migrant workers passing through on feet About 15000 cooked food packets
were distributed to the migrant workers and 300 pairs of footwear were
distributed
In Jhalawar district the BJP Karyakartas have distributed more than 2
lakh cooked food packets 27700 dry ration kits and 270 pairs of footwear to the
migrant workers
I thank the volunteer who all worked hard towards supporting the people
of Jhalawar-Baran

DR T SUMATHY (A) THAMIZHACHI THANGAPANDIAN (CHENNAI
SOUTH) Hon Speaker Vanakkam
COVlD-19 is an imported disease and self-inflicted disaster It was
originated in China and spread to all countries through humans only The first
COVID-19 positive case was identified in Kerala on 31 January 2020
Thereafter it started to rise through further arrival of foreign passengers and
their immediate contacts So the Government and everyone knew about the
veracity of COVID-19 by January and February 2020 itself No one can dispute
it
By the time that is 18 March 2020 the Union Government had decided
to stop all international passenger flights and banned the entry of anyone from
abroad almost an estimated 25 lakh passengers from abroad have entered and
dispersed across various States corners of India Thus the Coronavirus crisis
started in India a big blunder which could not be resolved till date
If the Government acted in time that is January or February and stopped
those arriving from abroad and isolated those arrived for a month or so then the
country might not get this virus entry into every corner of the country and the
common man might not be at a receiving end Due to lethargic and improperly
acts of the Government the virus spread across the country The Government
should shoulder the responsibility as it failed to act in time and now crushing the
common man who is vulnerable and unbearable to the situation It is not even
extending any sufficient relief to those in need Several households are facing
food scarcity I just leave it to the hon Members sitting in this august House to
understand and judge where when and how it went wrong to reach this
unbearable lockdown
The life of migrant labourers is beyond all levels of suffering The pictures
of the migrant workers leaving the cities by foot with their luggage in one hand
holding the children in other many young men carrying their aged mother or
father on their shoulders the small children walking along with their parents in
sweltering heat without chappals will be etched in our sad memories forever

The ghastly images of migrant workers smashed by a goods train in
Maharashtra cannot be deleted from the dark pages of history which happened
due to the inefficiency and incompetence of the ruling Government
The Government at the Centre blaming the State Governments for their
grave mistakes has become a common phenomenon The ill effects and ground
reality due to COVlD-19 lockdown on the people of this country is still not
ascertained properly Barring the people who get a regular income monthly as
salary or pension all others are suffering a lot Out of the 138-crore population
100 crores are plunged into deep trouble People working as daily wage
labourers those working in unorganised sector farm workers migrant labourers
from various categories lorry tempo taxi and auto drivers domestic workers
have suffered severely due to this self-inflicted COVID-19 crisis
In India there are around one crore drivers who earn their livelihood
through driving vehicles from lorry bus car and auto rickshaws The five months
lockdown has destroyed their career beyond recuperation Those who had
borrowed loan from banks or private lenders for their taxis and autos were
unable to pay their loan dues They too have a family living in a single room
house with aged parents unmarried sisters wives and children We just cannot
imagine the difficulties faced by them during the lockdown period
All I want to say is that the Government has not applied its mind and have
not done enough homework to be in the state of preparedness and readiness to
fight COVlD-19 crisis The Government either failed to analyse the inputs
reaching from China and other countries when the COVlD-19 started there in
December or it is the blatant failure of intelligence and diplomats working in
China and abroad Nevertheless we had three full months of time to prepare
and plan to combat COVlD-19 but failed miserably to be prepared This is due
to the Governmentrsquos preoccupation to prepare for the extravaganza related to
the personal visit of US President during 23rd to 24th February 2020
Secondly when the entire world was busy in preparation to fight COVID-
19 the ruling Government was cunningly cleverly and keenly focused only on
dislodging the duly elected Government in Madhya Pradesh using unethical
means This greediness to derail the duly elected Government has made the
Government insane and insensitive to the early warnings of some senior MPs
and leaders of opposition parties and the Government continued to run
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 377
Parliament till 23rd March 2020 when the Government mission was successfully
accomplished a day before Madhya Pradesh Government was captured and
the very next day full lockdown was announced by the Prime Minister and it
came into effect all over the country without any thoughts on the people
especially the migrant workers That is why when COVID-19 started to spread
in India we did not have even testing kits with us or laboratories to check and
ascertain the COVlD-19 patients There was very low production of protective
gears PPEs masks gloves and we lagged far behind in the supply of sanitisers
too That is the reason why India could not respond effectively to fight against
Corona and the numbers got increased
In India regular testing started happening only in the first week of March
after the emergence of the first few cases Starting with just one laboratory the
Pune-based National Institute of Virology that was testing samples at that time
India now managed to have a network of more than 1100 laboratories that are
conducting these diagnostic tests More than two lakh samples are being tested
every day Considering the large population the penetration of testing is still
quite low Indiarsquos testing numbers per one million population are still low
compared to many other countries
The Government says that economy was badly affected during COVID-
19 lockdown Agreed But was our economy booming in the previous years of
this Government No It is getting bad to worse and worse to worst in the last
six years and has reached point of no return at the moment Today I have no
hesitation in saying that our countryrsquos economy is pushed a clear 20 years back
and it will take several years of herculean works to set it right and put it back
In this precarious condition the countryrsquos economy is reeling under
tremendous pressure and distress Our countryrsquos GDP will certainly show a
negative growth The humongous damage caused to our economy before and
after COVID-19 has pushed us to years backward It may take six years or more
for our country to reach the same position India was in 2013 That too if a steady
8-10 per cent growth in GDP is achieved in the next six years But as of now we
have -239 per cent GDP The internal debt of the country has crossed Rs 100
lakh crore This means we have already lost 12 years I wish the Government
do not commit any hara-kiri and also hope that there will be no more big
calamities or any self-inflicted catastrophe

On the financial front actually the Union government should have
convened a Special Session of Parliament to recalculate and recalibrate the
income possibilities and expenditure priorities as the already passed Budget is
by now unrealistic The Budget 2020-21 passed by Parliament looks
unachievable due to the loss of time and opportunities The priorities have
changed drastically after the COVlD-19 crisis The provisions made for many
projects could be modified postponed or withdrawn accordingly It is therefore
very important to have a Revised Budget 2020-21 with more emphasis on new
initiatives with adequate financial provisions to mitigate the issues and problems
encountered by the people aftermath of COVlD-19 lockdown crisis It is
therefore my humble request to the hon Prime Minister and the Finance
Minister to convene a Special Session of Parliament and make suitable changes
in Budget 2020-21 and make it practically achievable
Government of India should openly announce the details of the trade and
economic deals bilateral treaties signed with China in the last six years and
explain to the people of our country why the Modi Government has signed such
deals with the brutal and treacherous country like China in the last six years in
spite of heavy opposition from nationalists from various corners of the country
The adamant behaviour of leaders of both countries fully know the
imminent danger and disadvantages faced by our country due to these treaties
and trade deals For whose benefit these deals and treaties are signed Order
for an independent authority to probe and find the intricacies of the trade deficits
and economic imbalances in these deals and treaties It is high time for the
Government to speak the truth with the common public Otherwise History will
punish the people who are responsible for this debacle beyond just words
The COVlD-19 crisis has left every profession and professional in the-
lurch be it a Doctor or Engineer or Lawyer a category of people who have
established their career and serving the society The medical practitioners and
their staff are the most affected and in fighting COVID-19 many in this medical
field have lost their invaluable lives The Engineering professionals and IT
professionals were affected very much due to the COVlD-19 lockdown
The COVID-19 crisis has worsened the life of genuine lawyers and their
clients who solely depends on justice to be delivered in time Justice delayed is
Justice denied Courts in India are paralyzed by COVlD-19 crisis and plagued
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 379
by the shortage of Judges The Union Law Ministry is on ldquoKumbhakarna Sleep
Moderdquo
There are 60000 cases pending in the Supreme Court and 45 lakh cases
in 25 High Courts in the country At the District and subordinate court levels the
number of pending cases stand at a shocking Rs 314 crore as of November
2019 27 lakh of these cases are less than years old 85 lakh are pending for
more than five years but less than 10 years and 85 lakh are over 10 year old
The COVlD-19 crisis has paralyzed and the lockdown has knocked down
the Judicial System and most of the genuine lawyers have literally knocked out
of jobs became incomeless clients shed tears of blood But as far as the Judges
and court staffs like Registrars Assistant Registrars Court Marshals etc are
concerned they enjoy a paid lockdown There is not a single penny loss though
they work just 20-30 per cent to their capacity and capabilities
COVID-19 has robbed the people three months of court proceedings and
genuine open court arguments In the absence of any personal interaction or
open court hearings the Registry departments of Courts have become the Demi
Gods and the Judges have literally turned into invisible Lords
The Indian judiciary is already suffering due to the shortage of judges
Nearly 40 per cent of sanctioned number of Judges are still unfilled
Unfortunately the Union Law Ministry and Ministerial people of State
Governments are sleeping as if heavens are not going to fall If the courts are
not functioning to its full potential the Government is least bothered of the
dangerous consequences of paralyzing of our Judicial System not working to
the fullest capacity and potential When everything is lost people look up on
Judiciary and Justice and if that Judicial System is not working to the desired
levels a kind of alleged Police excess and lawlessness in the society is
inevitable It is time to wake up or else expect a catastrophe Hope the top ranks
in the Government and Judiciary will discuss deliberate and come up with some
real solution to address this unprecedented lockdown in Judicial system
If the COVID-19 situation is not going to improve and if the Government
of India does not intervene next few months will witness that several lakh people
packing their baggage permanently back to India As per the recent data there
are about 15 crore NRls and 2 crore PlOs living all around the World The
COVID-19 may force at least one quarter of this 15 crore NRl population and
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 380
10 per cent of the 25 crore PIOs return to India which means at least 50 lakh
people who had a settled life would be unsettled and forced to come back
Countries like Australia Bahrein Bhutan Canada China Germany Italy
Kuwait Malaysia Nepal Netherlands New Zealand Nigeria Oman
Philippines Qatar Saudi Arabia Singapore South Africa Spain UAE UK and
USA have large NRl population While Australia Canada Fiji France Germany
Guyana Indonesia Israel Italy Jamaica Kenya Malaysia Mauritius Myanmar
Netherlands New Zealand Portugal Singapore South Africa Sri Lanka
Suriname Tanzania Thailand Trinidad and Tobago UK and USA have large
PlO population
The plight of those people who were to return to these countries to
continue their education business or professional work will not be permitted until
and unless COVlD-19 situation improves in India thereby causing enormous
stress and suffering to these people The government should find a remedial
solution to this crisis through the diplomatic routes Otherwise the life and career
of these people will be lost
COVID-19 crisis if not for a comprehensive drugvaccine to control the
spread of the virus would affect and alter the demography of the world countries
in the coming months Indian Diaspora is going to be the worst hit I urge the
Union Government to take all possible diplomatic and political administrative
steps to stop or reduce this Demographic relocation
The fishermen community in Tamil Nadu are one of the most affected
communities in the country due to the COVID-19 crisis and the unprecedented
and unplanned lockdown Already year after year the fishermen of coastal
Tamil Nadu were battered by natural calamities as well as from indiscreet
interference by the Sri Lankan counterparts The COVID-19 has completely
collapsed their livelihood Export of Fish and marine products has paralysed
beyond recuperation at this juncture
The coastal corridor in Tamil Nadu consists of 13 districts with 15 major
ports and harbours sandy beaches lakes and river estuaries Tamil Nadu has
a fishermen population of 2 million and the coast consists of three major fishing
harbours three medium fishing harbours and 363 fish landing centres
Unfortunately there have been several incidents of fighting for fishing rights
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 381
between Indian and Sri Lankan fishermen while fishing in the Palk Strait where India
and Sri Lanka are only separated by 12 nautical miles
Fishing has to be recognised at par with agriculture The fisher communities
suffer very much due to natural calamities like cyclone rough sea heavy rains heavy
floods hurricanes and tsunami They need waiving of their loans by Government
COVlD-19 has created a very bad situation for fishermen Governments at both
Centre and State together should provide Rs 5000 to about Rs 50000 to poor
fishermen in Tamil Nadu to mitigate the Coronavirus lockdown crisis
The continuous increase in the price of petroldiesel during the COVlD-19
crisis is like rubbing salt on the wounds People sufferings have reached
threshold levels I urge the Union Government to act with compassion and
common sense to reduce the escalating petroldiesel prices immediately It is
high time for the Government to reduce the petrol and diesel prices Otherwise
people will suffer from an unprecedented agony and pain
Indiarsquos COVlD-19 scenario is going from ldquobad to worserdquo stage to ldquoworse
to the worstrdquo stage and our hon Prime Minister is busy in feeding peacock
writing poems and continue his rhetoric speeches like his usual monthly Mann
Ki Baat It took 110 days for COVID-19 cases in India to reach one lakh while
just 59 days more to go past 10 lakhs Indiarsquos COVID-19 cases rose from 10
lakh to 20 lakhs in 21 days and 20 lakhs to 30 lakhs in just 16 days Indiarsquos
COVID-19 tally had crossed the 20-lakh mark on 7th August and went past 30
lakhs on 23rd August From 30 to 50 lakhs an addition of 20 lakh cases took just
three weeks At this current rate we can presume that by the end of September
Indiarsquos COVID-19 tally would easily cross 60 lakhs With the death toll increasing
steadily there is no way we could expect normalcy by October or November
There could be possibility to impose the lockdown once again till a vaccine to
curb COVlD-19 is discovered and distributed for public use Let us see the
further lsquoAct of Godrsquo is benevolent and merciful
COVID-19 has not spared anyone Even in the high-profile Ministers and
Members of Parliament are being affected Take the case of our Union Home
Minister He is the second most protected person in the country Only the
designated and approved individuals are allowed to meet him or come into any
kind of physical proximity with him Therefore the hon Home Minister getting
infected by COVID-19 and that too when the country needs him 247 he was
indisposed for several days It needs to be probed to ascertain if there is any
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 382
sabbatical move to curb the functioning of the all-powerful Minister l urge the
Government to initiate a fact-finding inquiry in this regard
On one side COVlD-19 has become the biggest health hazard and on the
other side the countryrsquos finance is shrinking like never before When the finances
drying up fast with considerable decline in the revenue the biggest problem for the
Government will be to fund its own projects in the coming months
Sir India is not an under developed country But it has been ruined by
underdeveloped minds This Government has lost its focus and attention and drift
away from economic priorities But it seems to be happy to focus more on divisive
religious ideologies and priorities This Government is not a game changer but only
a name changing Government It is either a slogging Government or just a
sloganeering Government This Government needs mentoring on all aspects of
politics economy and public welfare Electoral success will not guarantee a success
in governance too The real problem of the present Government is that if the pressing
issues are not addressed properly we might see a catastrophe in near future What
we need at the moment is a collective lsquoSave Indiarsquo Movement not a lsquoSlave Indiarsquo
Movement
I am really sorry to say that India has not only lost a golden opportunity to avert
the COVlD-19 but it has failed beyond the recovery in all other fronts It will be an
uphill task for the Government and the people of our country to come out of the
COVlD-19 crisis and its ill effects As far as Tamil Nadu is concerned we have great
people but miserable rulers at the moment Whatever happened we cannot stop now
The most pathetic thing is that people at the helm of affairs at the Government in
Tamil Nadu have indulged in corruption and siphoning of the amount designated for
COVID-19 crisis People are the ultimate sufferers due the inefficient Governments
at Centre and at State which has damaged the social fabric of the country including
Tamil Nadu This is the harsh and bitter truth The difficulties of the people may
increase manyfold once the lockdown is lifted but at the moment there is no way the
Government can lift the lockdown as the COVlD-19 cases in the country are
increasing in lakhs each day and the death toll is reaching one lakh
If this is the situation at the ground level today I cannot imagine how bad it
would turn out after two months when the cold weather and rains engulf the most of
the country COVID-19 crisis has left us with no other choice not because it is serious
but because of the incapable insensitive Governments at both Centre and State

SHRI B B PATIL (ZAHIRABAD) Sir Indias corona virus tally has raced past
the 54-lakh mark as more than 93337 COVID-19 cases were registered in the
last 24 hours according to the latest government figures
The data also underlines that the death toll in the nation has crossed the
86752 figure With a vaccine fit for public circulation still at least six to ten
months away the pandemic continues to ravage the country as
cases of cross-infection rise in the nation
While global health experts and scientists have been warning about the
onset of community transmission in India the Government still maintains that
there is no community spread in the country currently
Community transmission occurs when the source of the
contagion is not known ie when you cannot identify the clear source of
infection in a new community and the virus can infect anyone with no history of
contact with affected people and areas
In this scenario it becomes impossible to trace the original source of
infection back to a carrier
At this stage of the transmission where a person with no travel history or
any contact with infected people can also catch the infection
The national capital which was seemingly on a lsquopath of recoveryrsquo after
hitting the supposed peak in the month of July again started witnessing a sharp
rise in the corona virus cases from the last week of August till now
India has become the second worst affected nation by the COVID-19
pandemic We might soon overtake the USA in the total number of infections
next month
So far COVID-19 infections were heavily concentrated in large cities
located in Indias more prosperous States Delhi Mumbai Chennai among
others
The preparedness of the health system is much higher there than
elsewhere But recorded cases are now rising fast in Indias poorer States
where health services are very fragile
As the COVID-19 crisis absorbs their meager resources many public
health centers have stopped providing routine services
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 384
Even child immunization has been discontinued for months in many
States Some States paint a grim picture of missing doctors unattended
patients broken equipment and stray dogs Where are people with routine
health problems supposed to go
Not to forget the issues faced by disabled persons be it Financial
difficulties lack of access to essential services and little to no
assistance from the government were and still is some of the difficulties that
persons with disabilities have been facing during the COVID-19 and lockdown
In India there is one doctor for every 1457 people as per the
countrys current population estimate of 135 billion which is
lower than the World Health Organisation norm of 11000 as per
the Government
The other reason for a possible mortality spike is that Indias
prolonged national lockdown (from late March until unlock phases
began in June) has destroyed millions of peoples livelihoods
Local lockdowns continue in many States and are likely to persist off and
on for months Unlike affluent countries India has very little to show by way of
a social security system except for food subsidies and some relief work under
the National Rural Employment Guarantee Act
The employment crisis has already hit poor households really hard
Extreme food insecurity during and after the lockdown
Just to cite one 78 percent of the 25000 respondents in the nationwide
CSDS (Centre for the Study of Developing Societies) survey said that they had
found it quite difficult or ldquovery difficult to feed their families during the
lockdown
Acute food insecurity is very likely to translate into higher mortality
For children it also means lasting damage from malnutrition
A recent survey of some 20000 returning migrant workers found that 60
per cent were unable to ensure two square meals for all members of the family
With the local economy in the doldrums except for farming casual
workers are heading for a prolonged period of underemployment and hunger
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 385
With tax revenue a fraction of normal levels State Governments are finding
it difficult to provide more than symbolic relief The Central Government is doing little
to help them
Without much help from the Centre our Telangana Government still has been
taking several measures to tackle COVID-19 cases in the State and provide relief to
the people of the State
The Central Government did launch some limited relief measures during the
national lockdown such as free food-grain rations of five kilograms per person per
month for two thirds of Indias population
But now it seems to have lost interest and left it to the State Governments to
handle the crisis Doctors and nurses critical of the Governments crisis response
have been muzzled or harassed as have many journalists been
Muddled statistics are routinely invoked to reassure the public that all is well
In its hurry to turn India into a viswaguru (world leader) the Modi
Government seems to have little patience for a humanitarian crisis Yet denying a
crisis is the surest way to make it worse There seems no one way of ending the
pandemic in sight We need to bring the focus on controlling the spread of the
disease It can only be achieved through a degree of herd immunity following the
social distancing norms and a safe and effective vaccine
The combination of all three measures will only be helpful in slowing down
the spread of the disease However delivering a vaccine is easier said than done
From timely regulatory approvals to devising protocols for inoculation in a country
like India with over 138 billion population there can be quite a few challenges
authorities will have to tackle
Several countries have already drawn up plans to ensure priority access to
any approved COVID vaccine for the essential workers like defence men healthcare
workers and teaching staff Many also feel that the elderly need to be inoculated
first Indian authorities too need to figure out the priority groups which would need
coverage first
Smoothening out delivery details like this would get rid of confusion and
provide more security to those who could be at a higher risk than others Phased
out vaccination drive instead of or random dosage would also work out for the best
in a country with a sizeable population like India
Steps taken by Telangana Government amid COVID-19
Movement Restrictions
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 386

Chief Ministers Special Incentives The Government granted special incentives to
certain categories of employees as follows
bull Medical and Health Department The employees of the Department of Medical and

Corporation were given Rs7500 and the sanitation personnel of other local bodies
were provided Rs5000 as incentives for March and April

DR KALANIDHI VEERASWAMY (CHENNAI NORTH) I thank you for allowing
this discussion which is very pertinent and appropriate at this time to discuss the
effects of COVID-19 and the Governmentrsquos handling of the situation
I would like to go through the unfolding events in a chronological manner
to remind the House of the events which unfolded The first news of COVID-19
as a global threat started in November 2019 from the news about a deadly
disease killing several people in Wuhan China The Chinese Government
announced lockdown in several regions progressively from 23rd January 2020
Other countries announced lockdown from as early as 12th March 2020
and our hon Prime Minister announced lockdown on 23rd March 2020 which
lasted for almost ten weeks The sudden announcement of the lockdown threw
the country in utter turmoil which created the following difficulties starvation
unemployment no access to medical supplies or help and migrant labour issues
apart from complaints of discrimination and police excesses
Sir I would like to point out that a father and a son duo (Bennix and
Jayaraj) were tortured to death by the Tamil Nadu Police and the opposition
parties and public had to stage huge protests to bring the perpetrators to justice
This shows the extent of police excesses which prevailed in Tamil Nadu
Sir the medical facilities in the initial days of the lockdown were so
unorganised that people were running from pillar to post to get admitted in the
hospitals despite Tamil Nadu having one of the most robust healthcare
infrastructures Thanks to leaders like Perarignar Anna Kalaignar Karunanidhi
and M G Ramachandran
The performance of the Governments both Central and the State were
closely monitored by our Party leader Thiru M K Stalin and constructive
suggestions were provided which were ignored The Chief Minister of Tamil
Nadu gave wrong information like the disease will come under control within a
few days which led to carelessness by the people which further fomented the
spread of infection In addition the deaths of several hundred people were
overlooked with the dead bodies being handed over to family which further
spread the disease among thousands

Our leader Thiru M K Stalin with his call for ldquoOndrinaivaom Vaardquo which
means lsquoletrsquos unitersquo initiated the programme to feed almost one crore people and
supply medical supplies for the needy I under the able guidance of my leader
was able to feed several thousand families
Sir the efforts of the medical community has to be acknowledged and I
would like to pay homage to hundreds if not more of medical personnel who
lost their lives fighting this dreadful disease It is said that the Government is
unaware of the people who have laid their lives fighting this dreadful disease I
would like to urge the Government to list out the names and honour them their
efforts should not be forgotten as they are martyrs of this country
The Governmentrsquos support for the people has much to be desired The
so-called financial package was a joke with the people of this country The poor
entrepreneurs and MSMEs were all left in the lurch to fend for themselves which
led to starvation deaths migrant labourersrsquo deaths and closure of several
thousand MSMEs
Sir the National Disaster Management Authority headed by the hon
Prime Minister should look into the Report of the Task Force to Review DM Act
2013 which said that the present structure of various authorities under the DM
Act are not conducive for carrying out the tasks it has been mandated to perform
Perhaps if the PM had followed the report the disaster could have been better
managed I hope at least now with lessons learnt from our shortfalls the
Government would strengthen the National Disaster Management Authority as
the days ahead look gloomy with possibility of recurrence of these kinds of
biological attacks manmade or godsent and also with the precarious situation
with our neighbouring countries

SHRIMATI SUPRIYA SADANAND SULE (BARAMATI) According to the World
Bank Policy Note on Gender Dimensions of COVID-19 Pandemic such
pandemics are likely to affect women disproportionately more than men
If we talk about gender implications for health disease exposure in short
term is more for women because of following factors there is a larger share of
women in the health sector and as home and family caregivers which makes
them more exposed to contagion occupational sex-segregation also results in
different levels of exposure - women are more present in client-facing roles in
retail travel leisure and hospitality girls face constraints to access healthcare
services - as per the report by the WHO in India boys are more likely (and
sooner) taken to a qualified health professional for treatment than girls
The recommendation is that providing protective equipment and materials
and COVID-19 testing to higher-risk populations will be key to prevent their
contagion
As far as disruptions in reproductive health care services for women is
concerned the shift in resources towards addressing the public health
emergency can entail disruptions to key health services for women such as
reproductive health services There is for instance evidence of increase in
maternal mortality due to lack of critical resources in similar crises Pregnant
women can be particularly vulnerable in this context
The recommendation is that the pregnant women and maternity wards
require particular attention during the containment phase
Now I am coming to gender implications for education Given the fall in
incomes of households during a pandemic educational investment decisions
are likely to be altered Intra-household allocation of resources for schooling
might be redirected to boys over girls
The recommendation is that targeted measures needed for a section of
girls with no access to lCTs (Internet and Communication Technologies)
The disruption of services with school closures can lead to an increase in
the burden of care-related tasks - likely impacting girls more than boys This will
affect their ability to stay engaged in education in the longer term
------------------------
Laid on the Table

Possibility of an increase in child labour and dropouts - during the
pandemic the pressure to contribute to the family income may also increase
with the tightening economic conditions leading to permanent school dropout
The recommendation is that financial incentive programs can help
encourage families to send children back to school when the confinement phase
is over
There are gender implications for employment and economic conditions
Women will likely experience a significant burden on their time given their
multiple care responsibilities as school closures and confinement measures are
adopted possibly leading to reductions in their working time and permanent exit
from the labour market The over-representation of women among the inactive
population and in vulnerable forms of work (such as informal employment or
domestic work) heightens their vulnerability to poverty in times of crisis
The recommendations are the effectiveness of social protection
responses to the crisis can be improved if these gender dimensions are
considered Social messaging as part of the emergency response can
contribute to a more balanced distribution of household responsibilities and
resources between men and women Cash transfer programs to the most
vulnerable groups including women only households (for example single
mothers with children widows or female farmers) will be necessary both as part
of the emergency response and in the longer term Specific programs to support
womens return to economic activity will also play a central role For example-
public works access to training and credit direct provision of productive inputs
to female farmers
Gender implications within household ndash as regards domestic violence an
increase in gender-based violence (and its severity and frequency) due to
confinement can be observed across countries The stretched capacity of
response services might reduce the protection and support available
contributing to a heightened perception of impunity among perpetrators
The recommendation is that protection and support services need to be
in place and increases in the capacity may be required Innovative solutions to
provide reporting mechanisms for women victims and to accommodate them
and their children will be necessary Social awareness will be key as well as
engaging informal support networks and health workers

There are some important concerns in the way the Centre handled the
pandemic The overall Indias response to the pandemic has been reactionary
instead of being preventive and precautionary The Centre failed to ensure sufficient
availability of PPEs to frontline healthcare professionals NGOs and State
Governments responded better to the needs of citizens than the Centre For
example as part of its efforts to ease distress caused by COVID-19 the Pratibha
Foundation in association with the Yashaswini Samajik Abhiyaan has distributed
protective masks hand gloves hand sanitizers and PPE (Personal Protective
Equipment) kits to healthcare personnel at the forefront including police officers
Foundation also aided the needy households who are strapped of their daily wage
income by providing them with basic necessities food ration and served prepared
food daily to people stranded at the Daund railway station Pune
Until mid-July 2020 there were only two laboratories in India to test and certify
quality of Body-Coveralls for COVID-19 In an Unstarred Question on PPE suits
(QNo935 on 18092020) the Centre acknowledged that as of April 2020 there
were only two laboratories in the country which have the facilities as well as
necessary approvals for conducting tests on Body Coveralls (PPE) required for
COVID-19 These are South India Textiles Research Association (SITRA)
Coimbatore and Defence Research amp Development Establishment (DRDE) Gwalior
The Tests and Certifications of Body Coveralls (PPE) conducted at these two
laboratories in India are the only officially recognized ones
It was not until 16th July 2020 that 9 other testing facilities were announced
Such lack of sufficient facilities to test PPEs could have contributed to the delay in
PPE availability to healthcare workers The High-Level Group on Health Sector
constituted by the Fifteenth Finance Commission in May 2018 headed by Dr
Randeep Guleria Director AIIMS recommended shifting health from the State to the
Concurrent List During the times of a pandemic like COVID-19 effective
coordination between Centre and the States inter-state coordination is important to
respond effectively to the pandemic To enable this and to ensure a more active
responsible role for itself the Centre can consider shifting health subject from the
State List to the Concurrent List in the Seventh Schedule of the Constitution
The Fifteenth Finance Commission High-Level Group on Health Sector and
World Bank met on 21st May 2020 To improve the health response mechanisms in
India the World Bank recommended focus on quality of care centrally sponsored
schemes increasing per capita health spending among others Given that COVID-
19 primarily affects the respiratory system it stressed that infectious diseases like
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 396
tuberculosis need attention What suggestions and comments made during this
meeting has the Centre included in its COVID-19 response plan
India COVID-19 Emergency Response and Health Systems Preparedness
Package (ERampHSP) was approved by Cabinet on 22nd April 2020 for Rs 15000
Crores How much of this Fund is actually released or spent on COVID-19 in past
five months since April 20207 How much of this Rs15000 crore is released to the
States and particularly to my State of Maharashtra As per the data Rs 7500 crore
has been allocated for emergency COVID-19 response Rs 4150 crore has been
allocated for strengthening the national and State health system to support prevent
and preparedness Rs 1400 crore has been allocated for strengthening pandemic
research and multi-sector national institutions and platforms for one health Rs 1050
crore has been allocated for community engagement and risk communication and
Rs 900 crore has been allocated for implementation management capacity
building monitoring and evaluation
The Central Government has announced Rs 20 lakh crore package to combat
the impact of COVID-19 in the country How much of this Rs20 lakh crore was
actually infused into the economy since March 20207 How much of this Rs20 lakh
crore was given to my State of Maharashtra
The Centre was insensitive to the needs of an average citizen After the
lockdown was imposed there was a total absence of any supporting action to ramp
up testing expand the medical sector to help the millions of stranded poor workers
and to assist supply chain break In an Unstarred Question on Migrant Workers
(QNo174 on 14092020) the Centre answered that since it maintained no data on
migrant workers deaths during pandemic no compensation will be paid to the
victimrsquos family
There are multiple confusing rules and regulations issued by Central
Government during lockdown The Economist Magazine (June 13) estimated that
India issued well over 4000 different rules during the first two months of the
lockdown many of those rules being corrections of many of those rules A large
number of bureaucratic orders spelling rules and guidelines on a daily basis have
also created chaos among many stakeholders including businesses and the general
public According to PRS Legislative Research there have been 4130 executive
orders from states and the Centre

SHRI SAPTAGIRI SANKAR ULAKA (KORAPUT) Hon Chairman Sir thank
you for the providing opportunity to speak on the COVID-19 pandemic in the
country As the COVID-19 pandemic situation is going out of control day by day
the cases are increasing rapidly in tribal-dominated undivided Koraput district
Though Covid hospitals have been set up in every district most of these
hospitals are not equipped to treat serious or co-morbid patients We have 10
ICU with ventilators in Jeypore and JK Pur Covid hospitals but these ventilators
are mostly non-functional We donrsquot have Specialists oxygen supply
anesthesiologists etc to make these ventilators and subsequently hospitals
functional After following with the State Government multiple times finally
SLNMCampH has been declared as Covid hospital I would request the Central
Government to set up at least 50 ICU BED Covid hospital in Koraput and
specialists deployed from outside to make these beds functional I would also
request that Covid hospitals be provided with sufficient advanced treatment to
the Covid patients and constitute a team of doctors including Professors from
Medical Colleges to treat the patients
Another key issue is referrals Patients have to travel 400-500 km to
Bhubaneswar by road which is very risky for serious patients Hence I would
urge the Government to establish Air Ambulance leveraging the airstrip at
Jeypore so that serious patients can be transferred to Bhubaneswar without
risking their lives
There was a draconian notification by Odisha State Government which
discouraged patients from outside the State capital being referred to
Bhubaneswar Capacity has been built in Bhubaneswar Cuttack to cater to
treatments of patients from across the State This notification prevents patients
specially from tribal-dominated undivided Koraput district to avail treatment from
specialised hospitals in Bhubaneswar Cuttack There should be clear cut
directions from the Central Government to immediately stay such inhumane
notifications

COVID-19 outbreak and lockdown have impacted tribals and forest
dwellers greatly Now the virus has spread to rural areas especially Scheduled
Areas inhabited by tribals Lack of information and awareness among the tribals
and forest dwellers on the pandemic and required protective measures is a
major issue in tribal areas Tribal settlements are remotely located making it
particularly difficult for information to reach these areas The reverse migration
from cities and urban areas also raises concerns about the spreading of virus in
tribal areas
Poor access of tribal and forest dwellers to PDS is reported from across
the States Provisions under the PDS are not adequately provided or are
provided only to cardholders Ensuring good and nutritious security during the
lockdown in tribalOTFD areas needs to be the highest priority At this time PDS
should be provided to all needy families and migrant workers including those
who donrsquot have any identity cards on humanitarian grounds Insistence on
Aadhar card must be suspended during this period Provision of ration
vegetables cooking oil and other essentials should be made available at the
doorstep
The lockdown has affected collection use and sale of minor forest
produces (MFP) or Non-timber Forest Produce (NTFP) by tribals and forest
dwellers An estimated 100 million forest dwellers depend on MFP for food
shelter medicines and cash income The NFP collection season from April to
June provides major income support to tribals and unfortunately it coincided
exactly with the lockdown The MSP a major economic safety net has failed to
deliver due to lack of implementation in most of the States and slashing of
minimum support prices of many NTFPs by the Central Government
The Ministry of Tribal Affairs (MoTA) has written a letter to States
announcing revisions of MSP for 49 MFPs However what is most critical is the
institutional support that does not exist for collection and procurement of MFPs
with immediate payment Proposal for providing support through Van Dhan
Vikas Kendras (VDVKs) and most of VDVKs are non-functional The Particularly
Vulnerable Tribal Groups (PVTGs) are even more vulnerable a special relief
package for PVTGs comprising adequate grains pulses vegetables oil cash
grant soap and medicines should be provided The migration and seasons
access of pastoralists have been restricted due to the lockdown Also pastoral
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 399
communities have been affected as the milk economy faces severe crisis as
procurement and sale has been affected during the lockdown Diversion of forest
land without the consent of Gram Sabha in violation of the FRA continues even
during the lockdown Even as COVID-19 spreads and livelihoods are affected
due to lockdown there are reports of compensatory afforestation (CA)
plantations being carried out on forest land used by tribals and other traditional
forest dwellers including by fencing o such areas accessed for community rights
I would suggest to set up COVID Response Cell in MoTA ensuring appropriate
guidelines and instructions raising awareness and ensuring healthcare
ensuring food security strengthening NTFP-based livelihoods ensuing support
to PVTGs and pastoral communities support communities living in protected
areas prevent forest diversion and ensuring effective implementation of forest
rights
Thank you Sir

SHRIMATI APARUPA PODDAR (ARAMBAGH) COVID-19 a biomedical
disease has serious physical and tremendous mental health implications as it
is a rapidly spreading pandemic Asian countries like India are currently facing
issue of exponential growth in spread of transmission of COVID-19 in slum areas
of urban cities like Dharavi in Mumbai and the under privileged localities of metro
cities like Delhi
During lockdown period in India migrant workers had faced problems
nation-wide due to sudden ban on travel loss of income food shortage and
uncertainty about future More than 300 migrant workers died due to lockdown
with reasons varying from starvation suicide road and rail accidents lack of
medical care etc Due to COVID-19 pandemic migrant workers faced multiple
hardships They should be provided special assistance by the Central
Government as their families are facing problems to live their lives
According to the psycho-social issues among migrant workers they are
suffering from high degree of anxieties and fears There is no medical help from
the Central Government side for the poor People are jobless More effective
steps should be taken by the Government to prevent spread of COVID-19 Hand
sanitizers and masks should also be provided to people in public places and
healthcare should be given free of cost to the common public
This is the time to fight COVID-19 together Further vaccine for COVID-
19 should be given free of cost to the common man by the Central Government
In this COVID-19 times I would urge the Central Government to give special
financial package to Bengal and clear the pending amount which West Bengal
did not get from the Central Government Our Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee
is facing acute fund crisis Still she is fighting for the people of West Bengal in
this COVID-19 situation

has overtaken the US to become No1 in terms of Coronavirus recoveries As
per the data the recovery rate is 19 per cent of the total global recoveries It is
a significant achievement of the country I congratulate all the Corona warriors
for their great service for the nation The Union Government had also announced
insurance for Corona Warriors providing treatment free of cost if these warriors
get infected by COVlD-19 and in case of death Rs 30 lakh compensation is
given to the kin

DR RAJDEEP ROY (SILCHAR) Sir Assam is one of the eight North-East
States of India and often called the Gateway to the North-Eastern Region With
a population of 312 million (as per 2011 Census) spread over 33 administrative
districts Assam has vast geographical area of 78438 square kilometres and
shares international borders with Bhutan and Bangladesh In 2011
the literacy rate of Assam was 7318 per cent (males - 7881 per cent females
- 6727 per cent) The River Brahmaputra (identity for the State) traverses
through various districts of state and finally joins Bay of Bengal The core public
health service in Assam is delivered through an institutional structure that
includes seven functional Medical Colleges twenty-five District Hospitals
fourteen Sub-Divisional Hospitals 177 Community Health Centres 946 Primary
Health Centres 54 Urban Primary Health Centres 4643 Sub-Health Centres
(RHS 2018-19)
The Government of Assam has been successfully managing the COVID-
19 pandemic by adopting multi-pronged comprehensive health systems
strengthening strategies with 3-Ts ndash Testing Tracing and Treatment fully in
tune with the Government of India directives for COVID-19 management
complemented by different state specific safety net initiatives These include
need-based policies professionalism of medical and para-medical fraternity
readiness of health facilities by bridging gaps ensuring availability of logistics
strong support from community and frontline workers engagement of private
hospitals for managing non-COVID cases technical assistance from different
Development Partners support of other Allied State Departments etc
The strong political and administrative commitment shown by Sh
Sarbananda Sonowal hon Chief Minister Dr Himanta Biswa Sarma hon
Minister Health and Family Welfare Government of Assam and Sh Piyush
Hazarika Minister of State Health and Family Welfare a strong team of Senior
Bureaucrats and Health Department Officials Allied Department Staff and
Frontline Warriors have ensured that all strategies and plans as framed are
translated into efficiently implemented interventions Technical support from
different Development Partners such as World Health Organization (Regional
Office) UNICEF Jhpiego Piramal Swasthya and SAATHI have been found very
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 407
useful in designing need-based planning to fight back COVID-19 pandemic
unitedly In addition plan execution partners like HLLPPT APOLLO GVK-
EMRI C-NES Krsnaa Laboratories Spandan TBS etc have also extended
their wholesome support All these comprehensive plans set the ground for
rigorous Testing Tracing Isolating and Treating
The State was able to limit the spread of the pandemic initially with only
100 cases till 17th May 2020 since the reporting of first COVID positive case on
31032020 Thereafter cases started increasing with the relaxation of lockdown
and the return of many Assamrsquos residents back to Assam majority of them came
from other COVID-19 hotspot States To tackle the situation Assam adopted
multi-pronged approaches with a policy which can be termed as ldquoAssam Caresrdquo
under which the principle of very strict quarantine measure ldquoStrict quarantine
with a humane heartrdquo has been followed Different approaches adopted have
been proved successful in managing COVID-19 pandemic
As on 19092020 Assam had 155453 confirmed cases and 125540
recovered cases of COVID with a recovery rate of 8075 per cent (national 763
per cent) and case fatality rate of 028 per cent (national 184 per cent) (Table
1) Assamrsquos weekly average of COVID testing in a day (period from 21-08-2020
to 27-08-2020 as in table 2) is 30322 and the weekly average of confirmed
cases in a day is 1822 with an average positivity rate just about six per cent
The doubling time for the state is 218 days
It is heartening to mention that as on 26th August the tests per million
population (TPM) in Assam are 60404 which is more than double of the national
TPM of 26685 and one of the best in the country with the mortality rate of 028
per cent as one of the lowest in the country
Assam adopted an approach of 3Ts - Testing Tracing and Treatment for
management of COVID-19 pandemic in the State This is in line with the national
testing strategy aggressively tracking comprehensively and treating efficiently
However the Statersquos approach is much more comprehensive and inclusive in
nature with a view to bend the curve of COVID The broad specific actions which
are taken are stated below
1 Ensuring Sufficient availability of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) The
State ensured sufficient availability of PPEs (triple-layer mask N-95 and
PPE) to ensure that all COVID warriors feel confident to work in COVID
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 408
management The initial stock procurement made in March-April 2020
helped us to tide over the period of absolute scarcity without significant
difficulties
2 Gap filling of health facilities Gaps in health facilities mainly Medical
Colleges and District Hospitals were assessed on a war footing scale gaps
were bridged and facilities were made ready to manage COVID patients
The state has currently 25750 isolation beds and 58949 quarantine beds
3 Safety and security of COVID warriors The Health Department of Assam
ensures that after every seven days of duty each health care provider is
quarantined for seven days at quarantine centers and the cost is being borne
by the state Each health care staff is tested before and after quarantine The
success of this is reflected in the low mortality of heath care workers from
COVID in the state Though approximately 1900 plus health care workers
have been infected so far only six deaths have been reported among the
health workers in Assam of which only three were associated with COVID-19
duties
4 Training of staff associated in clinical management of COVID State on
priority trained approximately 3000 number of doctors 11000 para-medical
staff and supporting staff etc using virtual mode on clinical management of
COVID and frontline health worker protection The State also trained 700 final
year MBBS students and 2000 final year nursing students as back up COVID
healthcare providers Still continuous training is undertaken to keep them up
to date in latest treatment protocols as COVID treatment protocols are
evolving
5 Massive IEC campaign for mass awareness of Public on COVID-19 For
mass awareness generation ASHAs are mobilized for door-to-door
awareness campaign to inform community on DOrsquos and DONrsquoTs of COVID-
19 IEC Materials were distributed on signs and symptoms preventive
measures (use of mask hand washing and social distancing) using different
media platforms Hon Health Minister Assam shares regular press briefings
to inform people on COVID-19
6 Active support from frontline workers in generating awareness on COVID
Support of all frontline workers (ASHA ANM MPW) has been found highly
beneficial in reaching the last household with COVID-19 awareness
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 409
messages To ramp up testing state started ldquoAssam Community Surveillance
Program (ACSP)rdquo from 07th May 2020 in around 28000 villageswards of the
State to look for SARI (Severe Acute Respiratory Infections) ILI (Influenza
like Illness) fever dengue malaria diarrhea cases and to carry out
appropriate testing (as per the signs and symptoms) Based on the
encouraging feedback of 1st round of ACSP state is carrying out 2nd round of
ACSP with the name Assam Targeted Surveillance Plan (ATSP) -
NISCHAYATA (ACSP-Phase II) Under NISCHAYATA aggressive testing is
carried out at potential hotspots like market places interstate truck terminals
and parking lots random testing of vulnerable people of Health department
Police Transportation workers and Hotels staff etc This aggressive testing
approach ldquoCHASE THE VIRUSrdquo helped in identifying many COVID patients
and starting their timely treatment
7 Psychological support to patients Understanding the psychological impacts
of COVID-19 on the individual and the society an active intervention named
ldquoMononrdquo meaning lsquodeliberate thinkingrsquo was initiated involving Psychiatry
department Gauhati Medical College and LGB Regional Institute of Mental
Health Tezpur and a set of trained and committed volunteers to provide free
of cost psychiatric counselling and treatment to the COVID affected persons
as well as those who were quarantined As on date more than 32000
patients have been contacted over phone to provide psychiatric assistance
In addition free of cost online yoga training for patients in hospitals and Covid
Care Centres is also given
8 Universal screening and testing Assam took a policy decision to quarantine
everyone entering state (by air train and road) followed by testing and based
on the test report home quarantine is given to them whose test report comes
negative and positive cases are taken to hospital for treatment This
approach of ldquoChase the Virusrdquo was very useful in identifying many cases Till
May 2020 Assam could test only 12 Lac but with the ramping up of testing
facilities and testing state could test 207 Lac till 26th August 2020 From one
laboratory in February 2020 now state has 17 ICMR approved laboratories
Tests per million for Assam are 60404 and the positivity rate is 738 per cent
as on 19092020 Of the tests being done about 60 per cent are through
RT-PCR while about 40 per cent are using the point of care rapid antigen
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 410
tests Given the low sensitivity of antigen tests all symptomatic cases found
negative in the antigen test are re-tested using RT-PCR and necessary
actions are taken based on the test report To give the facility of getting tested
to people at Guwahati City 105 COVID Screening and Counselling Centres
(CCC) have been set up spread over in all the 31 wards of Guwahati Similar
facilities have been arranged in all other districts as well to facilitate public
testing free of cost These facilities provide testing and also counselling to
COVID confirmed cases
9 Setting up of Additional COVID Care Centres (CCC) Assam started setting
up of additional COVID Care Centers (CCC) at different places in the state
because of the increasing COVID positive cases Under this existing
colleges and convention centers where available were converted to COVID
Care Centers to cater to increasing COVID positive cases In addition
temporary structure like German Hangers with facilities like individual cabins
and toilets were prepared in war footing to admit and keep mild cases who
could not practice isolation at home
10 Increasing Oxygen production storage and delivery capacity As continuous
supply of medical oxygen is one of the critical elements for treatment of
COVID-19 the State Government is actively undertaking necessary steps to
arrange for sufficient numbers of oxygen cylinders of various capacities to
transport medical oxygen Cryogenic tanks for keeping liquid oxygen are
being established in GMCH and other medical colleges Oxygen generation
plants and oxygen concentrators are also being installed as per need
Infrastructure to provide oxygen through medical gas pipelines in hitherto
unavailable areas within the hospitals is also being undertaken earnestly
11 Scientific and evidence-based management of COVID-19 patients As the
COVID situation evolved the treatment protocols also evolved in the last few
months against COVID From the initial consideration of azithromycin and
hydroxyl chloroquine treatment protocol of COVID has swiftly moved
towards low molecular weight heparin steroids Inj Remdesivir monoclonal
antibodies like Tocilizumab and Itoluzumab convalescent plasma etc and
the state has progressively and timely adopted all the modern treatment for
COVID-19 patient management Many COVID patients could be brought
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 411
back from ICU and ventilators because of timely actions taken by the expert
health providers
12 Convalescent Plasma Therapy Assam is one of the first states in India to
bring in state of art Convalescent Plasma Bank with necessary facilities at
five Medical Colleges State has started motivating eligible cured COVID
patients to donate plasma and to transfuse plasma to the needy at Medical
Colleges of Assam Till 19092020 almost 1000 people have received
plasma therapy
13 Participation of Private Health Facilities In early phase State took support
from private health facilities in Guwahati Dibrugarh and Cachar (districts with
Medical Colleges) to manage all non-COVID cases while making the medical
colleges functional as fullypartly dedicated COVID hospitals Further with
the evolution of COVID-19 private hospitals are regularly supervised and kept
in loop so as to ensure that standard treatment protocols are followed across
the state irrespective of the status of the hospitals In addition free testing
facilities are being extended to private hospitals also so that the citizens
visiting these hospitals are not charged for testing COVID-19
14 Field level COVID Warriors Health care providers including managerial and
support staff have been working selflessly towards surveillance screening
sample collection supply of logistics transportation of samples to the
laboratories and information sharing with the higher authorities Continuous
training and monitoring through district officials and Zonal Medical College
faculties has helped in maintaining the high standards set by the Government
in dealing with COVID-19 patients
15 Facilitation of Home Isolation State started a unique scheme of supplying
necessary medicines and pulse oximeters to COVID positive patients who
are asymptomatic or mildly infected and prefer to remain in home isolation
These patients are supported by telemedicine and video-consultations
through e-sanjeevani with a tag name- SAMPARK Over a period time it is
expected that most of the mild and asymptomatic cases will prefer to have
home isolation However absolute awareness about the danger signs and
proper knowledge about immediate steps to be taken from the patient side
are very critical Hence efforts are being made to create awareness among
public for early testing and treatment
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 412
16 COVID Sero Survey ICMR on request from the State is conducting the sero
survey to detect antibodies to COVID in the population to assess prevalence
of the SARS-CoV-2 virus in three districts of Assam and the survey report is
likely to be shared with State by early September 2020 Depending on the
feedback the State is also planning to conduct sero survey for Antibody
through ELISA-based tests in large scale as per the requirements for future
planning
As explained above the Government of Assam is undertaking a large
gamut of activities in order to keep the citizens safe and healthy Obviously the
Government of India policy is strictly followed with Statersquos own innovative plans
and implementation of the same All these activities definitely have huge cost
impact and the Statersquos own fund is not enough to meet all the expenses at the
same time Even with the Government of Indiarsquos assistance the expenditure
already made for COVID-19 management with the pending liabilities and future
needs for this financial year alone is a huge burden on the State Government
The major expenditures made by Government of Assam in Health
Department and NHM Assam can be described as follows COVID-19 pandemic

SHRI UNMESH BHAIYYASAHEB PATIL (JALGAON) Thank you Sir for giving
me an opportunity to take part in this discussion under Rule 193 on a matter of
immense importance which not only concerns our country but also the whole
world which has seen 31 million cases across the world
I would like to thank our Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji under
whose leadership India has led from the front in our fight against this pandemic
and Dr Harsh Vardhan ji who has been working day and night to manage the
situation in an effective manner
The world and several institutions including the WHO are now looking up
to India to lead the fight and the Indian model as an example to emulate Apart
from handling the health pandemic India has also deftly dealt with the economic
situation arising as a result notable among them are the measures taken for the
vulnerable sections of the society who are the worst hit and are expectedly
facing hardships
India would now be playing a more prominent role at the World Health
Organisation WHO with Union Health Minister Dr Harsh Vardhan set to take
charge as Chairman of the WHO Executive Board at its 147th session
Indiarsquos response to COVID-19 has been ldquopre-emptive pro-active and
graded The Government had already put in place a lsquocomprehensive response
systemrdquo at the borders of the country much before the World Health
Organisation declared the coronavirus as a public health emergency of
international concern on January 30 Such a response ensured that there was
no panic among the citizens and avoided inconvenience to the extent possible
The Indian Government has also evacuated its citizens and those of its
neighbours from high-risk countries including China Japan Iran and Italy The
Government started screening of incoming air passengers followed by
suspension of visas and a ban on international flights were done much ahead of
any other country Italy and Spain started screening travellers 25 days and 39
days respectively after the first reported cases
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 416
Equally noteworthy are the various public awareness campaigns Prime
Minister Shri Modi has shown leadership in mobilizing the Heads of Governments of
the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) and that of the G-20
to share reliable information best practices and support each other in fighting this
pandemic
I will conclude with some suggestions to further bolster our fight against
corona
My first suggestion is the scope of Ayushman Bharat Indiarsquos flagship
insuranceassurance scheme launched with the vision of universal healthcare and
leaving no one behind should be expanded to include the 40 per cent lsquomissing
middlersquo who are neither covered by private insurance nor by the Government so that
any COVID-19 related expenses are covered by the Government
My second suggestion is this Businesses have a responsibility towards their
employees Those employees who are not on any permanent contract often become
the first casualty of cost cutting measures and are the most vulnerable It will be
critical for businesses to ensure all such employees continue to get paid and that
companies can partner with the Government to ensure their health coverage
My third suggestion is this The Constitution of India distributes the legislative
powers between the Centre and the States under the Seventh Schedule Services
related to public health sanitation hospitals and dispensaries are categorised under
Entry 6 of List II and is the responsibility of the States The rationale to entrust the
responsibility of public health and sanitation to the States is because the health
requirements vary from one State to another
But when it comes to making effective response strategy for tackling
pandemics that affect the health of the population around the country it becomes
imperative for the Union to spearhead the nationwide planning in consort with the
State Governments
In fact given their inherent challenges it becomes implicit for the States to
look up to the Union Government for a direct intervention to mobilise their medical
resources and devise efficient strategies for routing the resources where it is most
needed
With these suggestions I conclude my speech

SHRI NABA KUMAR SARANIA (KOKRAJHAR) Hon Speaker Sir I am
thankful to you for allowing me to speak on the COVID-19 discussion under
Rule 193
In my State three Governments are functioning namely the Central
Government State Government and BTC When the lockdown was declared
the BTC Assembly elections were going on Later on 27th April 2020 the
Governor Rule was imposed in the BTC Till today Model Code of Conduct is
imposed there
Sir yesterday I came to know that Assam Government had written to the
Election Commission of Assam to postpone the BTC elections But I think it is
not the right solution The people of the BTC have suffered so much during the
lockdown and Model Code of Conduct The BTC election procedure up to
symbol distribution has been completed Only six to seven days are left for
competing the BTC Assembly Elections I think it is possible by maintaining all
the COVID-19 protocols before 27th October 2020
So I would request the Central Government to please advise the State
Government to strictly maintain the COVID-19 guidelines in the BTC area
because in their campaigning so many parties have organised mass gatherings
and even some responsible State Ministers have participated there by violating
the social distancing norms Some were even not wearing masks
So these norms should be followed strictly I will extend all the possible
support to the State Government and the Central Government in this regard
Thank you

SHRI JAGDAMBIKA PAL (DOMARIYAGANJ) Respected hon Speaker Sir I
rise to lay on the table of the House the facts on the discussion under rule 193
on COVID-19 Pandemic in the country
Sir the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare acknowledged the
emergence of a new coronavirus (COVID-19) that was spreading across China
The first Indian case of COVID 19 was reported on 30th January 2020 The
Ministry of Home Affairs announced a 21-day lockdown to contain the spread of
COVID-19 from March 25 2020 to April 14 2020 As the spread increased and
more information about the virus was uncovered the Central Government
announced several policy decisions to contain it
Further measures were also announced to support citizens and
businesses who were affected by such containment measures India started
point of entry screening of passengers at ports airports and land border
crossings Under Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Yojana to provide relief against
COVID-19 the Finance Minister announced a relief package of 17 lakh crore
rupees for the poor An Insurance cover of Rs50 lakh was provided to health
workers (such as doctors nurses paramedics and ASHA workers) who are
treating patients of COVID-19 About 80 crore poor people got five kilograms of
wheat or rice and one kilogram of preferred pulses were also provided for free
every month Women account holders under the Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan
Yojana got Rs500 per month and also free gas cylinders were distributed to the
needy people
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has constituted an Advisory Committee
to review the Ways and Means Advances (WMA) limits for States and UTS
WMA limits refer to temporary loans given by the RBI to State Governments
Until the Committee submits its final recommendations the WMA limit has been
increased by 30 from the existing limit for all States and UTs The revised
limits will be in force between April 1 and September 30 2020
Sir todays our Government has reached the level of more than 12 lakh
COVID tests per day This strongly demonstrates an exponential increase
COVID-19 testing infrastructure in the country
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 419
The countrys testing capacities have multiplied manifold From
conducting merely 10000 tests per day on 8th April the daily average has
crossed 12 lakhs today In addition for treatment of those affected by COVID
the Government is implementing Ayushman Bharat-Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya
Yojana under which 601 coaches have been converted into Covid Care Centres
by Indian Railways
Sir in all 4621 Shramik Special trains have been operated between 1st
May 2020 to 31st August 2020 carrying 6319 lakhs stranded passengers to
their home states From Zero manufactures to 1100 indigenous manufacturing
of PPE kits shows the Central Government achievement in tackling the problem
of COVIDndash19 An amount of Rs11092 crore has been provided under State

COVID patient and the rest 10 may be used for other chronic diseases The
steps taken by our Government to tackle the problem of COVID-19 pandemic is
very praiseworthy I am therefore fully satisfied and also appreciate the major
allocation of funds to the States as well as to the poor people to overcome the
problem of COVID Pandemic

SHRI P P CHAUDHARY (PALI) Iniarsquos response to COVID-19 has been pre-
emptive pro-active and graded The country has already put in place a
comprehensive response system at its borders much before the WHO declared
it as a public health emergency of international concern which is January
302020
Many of my friends are criticizing the announcement of lockdown I would
like to call their bluff and remind them if the lockdown was not announced in a
sudden manner it would have created a havoc People distressed lining for
tickets price rise of essential commodities and travel plans the crowded
movement of masses would have spread COVID-19 from the urban to far flung
distant corners of the country
Under such extraordinary circumstances where we knew not what was
the propensity of the threat from disease which originated in China where even
the WHO was misled a good leadership leads with confidence works for the
betterment of situation and arrange for facilities needed PM Shri Modi was able
to announce the lockdown at such short notice because he had made
arrangements prior to announcement different from the Congress era when
announcements were done with distant dreams of materialization in future which
never happened
Coming to PM Garib Kalyan Yojana on March 26 when the Government
announced a relief package of Rs17 lakh crore under the Pradhan Mantri Garib
Kalyan Yojana for the poor the Opposition was doing politics and bickering on
social media tapping from the comforts of their air-conditioned homes and
offices
In pursuance of the pro-poor announcement made under the Pradhan
Mantri Garib Kalyan package as part of the economic response to COVID-19
the Government of India had launched the scheme for additional allocation of
foodgrains from the Central pool at the rate of five kilogram per person per month
free of cost for all the beneficiaries covered under the Targeted Public
Distribution System (TPDS) (AAY amp PHH) including those covered under the
DBT for a period of three months that is April-June 2020

Accordingly about 121 LMT of foodgrain was allotted to approximately
8096 crore beneficiaries entailing a subsidy outgo of nearly Rs46061 crore
Necessary orders were issued on 30032020
The scheme was further extended as part of economic response to
COVID-19 for another five months from July to November 2020 for distribution
to all the beneficiary households under the National Food Security Act 2013
(NFSA) at the rate of five kilogram per person per month free of cost for all the
beneficiaries covered under the Targeted Public Distribution System
(TPDS)National Food Security Act (NFSA) Accordingly about 201 LMT of
foodgrains have been allotted to approximately 8043 crore beneficiaries
entailing subsidy outgo of nearly Rs7606212 crore Till June 30 2020
Rs18000 crore has been transferred to the bank accounts of more than nine
crore farmers and Rs50000 crore is being spent on PM Garib Kalyan Rojgar
Abhiyaan which has been started to provide employment opportunities
Coming to Aatma Nirbhar Bharat we never took refuge behind COVID-19
pandemic to shy from our responsibilities but we saw this as an opportunity to
develop India and launched the Aatma Nirbhar Bharat Scheme Hon Prime
Minister Shri Narendra Modi on May 12 2020 announced the special economic
and comprehensive package of Rs20 lakh crore which is equivalent to 10 per
cent of Indiarsquos GDP to fight the COVID-19 pandemic in India Indiarsquos self-
reliance is ingrained in the happiness cooperation and peace of the world with
the sacrosanct belief that this is the culture which believes in the welfare of the
world for all the living creatures and the one which considers the whole world
as a family Its premise is ldquoिाता भकि पतरो अहि पकथवयrsquo -the culture that considers
the earth to be the mother And when the Bharat Bhumi becomes self-sufficient
it ensures the possibility of a prosperous world Indiarsquos progress has always
been integral to the progress of the world He gave a clarion call for Aatma
Nirbhar Bharat or Self-Reliant India Movement
To provide relief to the business additional working capital finance of 20
per cent of the outstanding credit as on 29th February 2020 in the form of a term
loan at a concessional rate of interest would be provided This would be available
to units with up to Rs25 crore outstanding and turnover of up to Rs100 crore
whose accounts are standard The units would not have to provide any
guarantee or collateral of their own The amount would be 100 per cent

guaranteed by the Government of India providing a total liquidity of Rs3 lakh
crore to more than 45 lakh MSMEs
After taking the Cabinet approval on 20052020 the Department of
Financial Services issued Operational Guidelines for the scheme on 23052020
and the Emergency Credit Line Guarantee Scheme (ECLGS) Fund was
registered on 26052020 In a short period of about one-and-a-half month
noticeable progress has been achieved in identifying units sanctioning as well
as disbursing of loans to MSMEs
New front-loaded special refinance facility of Rs30000 crore was
sanctioned by the National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development
(NABARD) during COVID-19 to RRBs and cooperative banks This special
facility is expected to benefit three crore farmers consisting of mostly small and
marginal farmers in meeting their credit needs for post-harvest and kharif sowing
requirements When kharif sowing was already on its full swing Rs2487687
crore out of Rs30000 crore was disbursed as on 672020 out of this special
facility
The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in reverse migration of urban
migrantspoor in the country The urban migrants stay in slumsinformal
settlementsunauthorised coloniesperi-urban areas to save cost on housing
They need decent rental housing at affordable rate at their work sites
In order to address this need the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs
has initiated Affordable Rental Housing Complexes (ARHCs) a sub-scheme
under the Pradhan Mantri AWAS Yojana-Urban (PMAY-U) This will provide
ease of living to urban migrantspoor in industrial sector as well as in non-formal
urban economy to get access to dignified affordable rental housing close to their
workplace

SHRI TEJASVI SURYA (BANGALORE SOUTH) Hon Speaker at the outset
I wish to thank the hon Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji for effectively
handling the COVID-19 pandemic
By taking speedy and seemingly harsh measures prioritising the health of
the citizens of the country PM Modi Ji has ensured that India has one of the
lowest COVID-19 deaths per million population An early lockdown called by the
PM potentially saved upto 70000 lives and more than 29 lakh cases While
India stayed indoors and obeyed the Prime Ministerrsquos call he constituted the
PMCARES Fund for supplying ventilators and improving the health infrastructure
of the country After India entered the unlock stage Prime Minister Modi
unveiled a slew of reforms in the form of the Atmanirbar Bharat Scheme to
mitigate the economic hardship faced by MSMEs street vendors migrant
labourers and practically every other citizen Similarly the PM Garib Kalyan Ann
Yojana ensured that no citizen would go hungry despite the country experiencing
the worst global pandemic in a century
My State Karnataka under the leadership of hon Chief Minister Shri BS
Yedurappa has also managed to control the pandemic effectively True to its
tag of being the Tech Capital of the country my city Bengaluru utilized
technology and implemented unique solutions to assist citizens during the
lockdown and beyond
Soon after the lockdown was announced we set up a Bengaluru South
MP Coronavirus Task Force with the help of more than 4000 dedicated
volunteers to attend to citizensrsquo emergency requirements The Task Force
volunteers are available 247 on the number 99464 99464 We formed area-
wise WhatsApp groups to assist senior citizens pregnant women migrant
workers and other distressed people during the lockdown period They
extended all non-COVID medical support in the form of assistance in procuring
medicines and groceries delivering food packets to the needy and also feeding
stray dogs They also provided free and compassionate psychological
counselling The Task Force also tied up with cab aggregator Ola to provide
free taxi rides to hospitals for non-COVID medical emergencies
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 426
During the lockdown period the MP Coronavirus Task Force handled
5000 individual requests provided 2600 free Ola cab rides to hospitals served
450000 meals served to underprivileged sections and migrant workers and
handed out 35000 free ration kits for the migrants and needy
Bengaluru further proved its credentials of being the startup capital of the
country when we established the Home Line what is possibly Indiarsquos first
WhatsApp bot-enabled e-commerce platform
The Home Line was a phone number (080 61914960) accessible both by
call and WhatsApp set up for the home delivery of essentials from your nearest
grocer or medical store in Bengaluru We brought together 30 competing
startups from Bengaluru mapped every retailer in the city and unleashed about
10000 delivery executives to take essentials to the doorsteps of citizens Using
Cloud Calling system of Kaleyra call center employees of (24)7ai working for
the Home Line would note the order for groceries or medicines and generate a
ticket The ticket would be passed on to a delivery executive from Dunzo
Swiggy Rapido Shadowfax or House Joy The delivery executive would
proceed to purchase the items from the grocer or medical store located closest
to the caller and deliver the items
During the lockdown period the Home Line of Bengaluru received 17059
orders on WhatsApp and 2137 orders placed on phone It enabled the delivery
of 14049 orders and served 30000 people in Bengaluru
Bengaluru finally opened up during the Unlock phase and we noticed an
increase in the number of daily cars We once again came up with a technology
solution to handle the outbreak called COVID Raksha
COVID Raksha can be accessed by phone and WhatsApp by using the
same helpline number 080 6191 4960 Citizens can report COVID-19
symptoms enquire about test request for doctor assistance and expert advice
and seek guidance on turning positive and take initiative to reach out for urgent
care It also facilitates the shifting of patients in distress to hospitals across
Bengaluru
The Office of the MP partnered with Swasth Project Stepone Kaleyra
Fortis Hospitals (24)7ai ACT Grants Cartoon Mango SRL Diagnostics Hey
Doc Pharmeasy Portea Medical ITW Consulting and Spykke Technologies to
power the platform
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 427
Through COVID Raksha (as on 10th September) we have answered
10700 calls from citizens on the coronavirus infection and conducted 3465
sessions on WhatsApp We have completed 1698 triaging of symptoms on
Swasth and facilitated 582 hospital transfers The COVID Raksha so far has
handled 96 advanced emergency cases and provided life-saving care to citizens
in Bengaluru
With this hon Speaker I would like to thank citizens for enabling us to
serve them I also would like to thank the Prime Minister once again for showing
exemplary leadership during such times Together we will fight this pandemic

SHRI PC MOHAN (BANGALORE CENTRAL) Hon Speaker Sir thank you
for allowing me to participate in the discussion under Rule 193
regarding COVID-19 pandemic in the country
The latest data shows that 54 lakhs 620 cases confirmed cases and
around 86752 deaths and 4303044 patients have already been cured as
on today
Sir India is the second largest democracy in the world with the population
of more than 135 crore In such a big country to enforce a lockdown and prevent
people to stop their daily activities and business is not a matter of joke It is
known to all of us
Even then our Union Government under the leadership of Shri Narendra
Modi ji has taken very effective steps to impose the lockdown to protect people
As a Prime minister of the country he has taken a very bold step He did not
think twice about the ill effects of the economic situation caused by lockdown
He gave top priority to save the lives of people of the country He took the people
of the country into confidence by interacting with them frequently through the
National media and lsquoMann Ki Baatrsquo programmes I congratulate the hon Prime
Minister for his bold initiatives And I am thankful to the people of the country for
showing their respect and honor the words of the hon Prime Minister
ldquoIn a landmark global achievementrdquo India has overtaken the US to
become No1 in terms of coronavirus recoveries accounting for close to 19 per
cent of the total global recoveries It is because of the great sacrifice done by
the healthcare service providers
In order to protect the people and save the life of covid-19 affected people
both Government hospitals and private health care centers in the country
particularly in Karnataka have done great services The doctors nurses and all
the staff including assistances worked on war footing day in and day out They
put their lives at stake to rescue the affected people from the coronavirus They
are the real warriors I am thankful to all the corona warriors for their great
service for the nation
This is reflected in the Government Response Stringency Index measured by
Oxford University which says that India enforced one of the most stringent
lockdowns
------------------------
Laid on the Table

Our BJP Government in the Center and also in the state of Karnataka have taken
several measure to manage situation risen out of the COVID-19 pandemic on a war
footing ldquoDedicated hospitals for the treatment of the
infected fever clinics and Covid care centres in Bengaluru and in all other
district headquarters of the State were set up apart from quarantine
facilities to identify and isolate the infected personsrdquo
Atmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyana
On May 12 Government announced Atmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyana
Package a special economic and comprehensive package of Rs 20 lakh
crore - equivalent to 10 per cent of Indiarsquos GDP - to combat the impact of
the COVID-19 pandemic in India Later on the lockdown was considerably eased in the
months of July August and September Now there is a gradual improvement in growth of
Manufacturing core industries E-way bills Kharif sowing power
consumption railway freight cargo traffic and passenger vehicle sales etc
Ayushman Bharat program
The Government has launched Ayushman Bharat program and Pradhan Mantri Jan
Arogya Yojana for the people Under this the Government provides health coverage of
Rs 5 lakh per family per annum to more than 10 crore poor and vulnerable families for
secondary and tertiary care
hospitalization Our BJP Government is making all the efforts sincerely to
augment the health infrastructure to combat COVID-19 pandemic in the
country
Allocation of Funds
As far as the budget allocation is concerned in the interim budget of 2019- 20
around 22 per cent has been allocated to the Department of Health amp Family Welfare
During the year 2015-16 Government health expenditure is 118 per cent of GDP The
allocation is constantly increasing during the BJP
Government for the last six years The National Health Policy 2017
envisages increasing public health expenditure to 25 per cent of GDP by
2025 Our BJP Government is making all the efforts to achieve this target
With the constant efforts and encouragement of the union Government a major
achievement made by Tata CRISPR in finding an advanced test for Covid-19 The Tata
CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats) test achieves the
highest accuracy levels than the traditional RT-PCR tests It takes quicker turnaround time
and less expensive equipment and better ease of use
With these words I conclude my speech Thank you Sir

SHRI RAM MOHAN NAIDU KINJARAPU (SRIKAKULAM) Thank you hon
Speaker Sir for giving me the opportunity to speak on the discussion on COVID-
19 pandemic in the country
First of all I would like to pay my tribute and pass on my condolences to
the families of all the doctors nurses health workers police and to all those
who have worked on a frontline and have lost their lives due to COVID-19
pandemic I would like to thank the hon Minister of External Affairs Dr
Subrahmanyam Jaishankar Ji who has helped in bringing back people who
were stranded outside India and I would also like to thank all the State
Governments who have helped in bringing migrants of Andhra Pradesh back to
their homes I would also like to thank all the MPs who have worked
tremendously in their constituencies during the crisis Right now they are
fulfilling their constitutional duties in the Parliament While we are discussing
this the COVID-19 cases have passed the 54-lakh mark with as many as 92605
new cases reported today The country has lost around 87000 lives in the
pandemic
My State Andhra Pradesh has seen a total of 8218 new cases today and
the total confirmed cases in the State is 617776 The Statersquos tally is the second
highest after Maharashtra My constituency Srikakulam has seen total of
30000 cases and 280 deaths till now
Hon Speaker Sir this discussion on COVID-19 should have been taken
up during the Budget Session when we were aware that our country would have
to face this pandemic Having a discussion at that time would have helped us
formulate our response to tackle the crisis more effectively
I would also like to commend the efforts of the Government of India and
its bold if not timely decision to implement the most comprehensive lockdown
anywhere in the world Being one of the most populated countries in the world
we needed it at that time to calibrate our responses to tackle the global crisis
and also to save our economy We also needed it to upgrade the health
infrastructure and increase the capacity of beds to meet the demand that might
arise due to this pandemic

Sir after six months of the lockdown when we are in the 4th stage of the
unlock process now the question then arises did we use the time on our hands
effectively and efficiently
If we look at the Annualised figures of GDP for April-June quarter then
the scenario becomes more dire
India -75 per cent
UK -599 per cent
Germany -33 per cent
USA -317 per cent
Japan -278 per cent
China -546 per cent
If we look at quarter-over-quarter GDP growth between April-June 2020
over January-March 2020
India -2928 per cent
UK -204 per cent
Germany -97 per cent
USA -909 per cent
Japan -78 per cent
China -115 per cent
During an interaction of the hon Prime Minister with the Leaders of the
Parliamentary Parties on 8th April 2020 I had suggested that in order to come
out of this lockdown and protect our economy a stimulus package to the tune
of at least 10 per cent of the GDP needs to be announced This was accepted
by the hon Finance Minister and she announced a package in the same line on
12th May 2020
Of Rs 20 lakh crore stimulus package announced nearly 50 per cent of
it is in the form of liquidity measures to help banks and NBFCs to increase
lending business to stimulate growth While demand was subdued due to
COVID-19 situation banks and NBFCs were also reluctant to lend due to
potential NPA concerns Therefore the stimulus package announced for various
MSMEs and small businesses was also not in the form of grants but in the form
of loans food supply for migrant labourers and some infrastructural support
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 439
The actual expenditure of the Government is negligible with most burden on the
RBI and institutions like NABARD etc
The Government has also planned to tap construction workers fund
mineral fund and compensatory fund etc The Government has just recycled its
schemes and allocations already counted for in the budgetary allocations As
part of the COVID-19 package of Rs 54 lakh crore package announced for
MSMEs the actual cost to the Government is estimated at Rs 25000 crore only
For this as I have suggested previously the Government should review
its capital and revenue expenditure plans and classify them under three heads
as critical essential and desirable The one which is being required and is
urgent is critical the one which is being required but not urgent is essential
and the one which is not being required and also not urgent is desirable The
Government should delay the expenditure that is not critical and divert that
amount towards the second stimulus package
We are all facing the same storm but we are not sailing in the same boat
While some sectors have prospered during these pandemic times others such
as construction travel restaurant MSMEs across all the verticals have
suffered the most
If you look at the employment report -- recently released by CMIE it states
that during the April-July period about 19 million salaried people lost their jobs
in India While salaried jobs are not easily lost but once lost they are also far
more difficult to retrieve
The package needs to be focussed on providing financial support to those
industries which see the largest loss in employment so that they have the funds
to rehire or save the jobs of their employees So the financial support and
stimulus package need to be directed to support the most vulnerable people and
businesses
While unemployment number is increasing the businesses are also
facing shortage of labour which is becoming the cause for a concern We need
to figure out a way to get the right people to the right place in order to kick start
the economic activity For this I suggest that the migrant labourers be provided
some incentives to get back to their work sites They should also be provided
some travel incentives increased healthcare facilities at labour camps to handle
COVID infections and mobile ration cards etc

During the lockdown period we have seen many gains in terms of
reduction in the levels of pollution better sanitation and hygiene and that needs
to be sustained
These measures would surely bring economy back on track in some time
However for the welfare of the people I would like to mention a few points
Under the Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Yojana insurance cover will be provided
to 2212 lakh health care providers including public healthcare providers and
private hospital staff The insurance provided will be above any other insurance
cover being availed by the beneficiary and does not require any additional
registration The premium for it will be borne by the Ministry of Health and Family
Welfare The insurance scheme was operationalised on March 30 and will be in
force till September 2020 which is extended for a further period of time of 180
days The claims of these workers should be processed quickly The police
officials who are doing their duties during these Corona times have no
insurance So the Government should introduce a similar kind of a scheme for
them as well
After the COVID-19 pandemic fishermen are in dire need of assistance
When the lockdown was announced many fishermen were in the high seas and
when they came back there were no traders and the supply chains were
crashed It resulted in the severe loss of income to the fishermen We are still in
the middle of the pandemic and the demand of fisheries is still low and therefore
they are struggling hard to meet their day to day needs As part of the
Atmanirbhar Bharat package Rs 20000 crore has been allocated to Pradhan
Mantri Matsya Sampada Yojana but it does not contain any provision for
financial assistance to the hard hit fishermen The fishermen are not even
included in PM-KISAN Scheme which they have demanded for so long I request
the Government to constitute a Fishermen Welfare Fund and sanction a special
grant to formulate schemes related to providing compensation during this tough
time Andhra Pradeshrsquos economy is significantly dependent on fisheries and
fishermen and even Andhra Pradesh has significantly contributed in the total fish
production in India
Srikakulam is also a major source of outmigration of fishermen and other
migrant workers and has recently witnessed all the migrants returning to home
especially from Veraval in Gujarat and also from Chennai The unemployment
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 441
among them has increased the job demand under MNREGA and it is the highest
ever after 2007 They need job and wages to meet their day-to-day needs very
badly The Gareeb Kalyan Rojgar Abhiyaan has been introduced to provide
livelihood to migrants who are back home in 116 districts in 6 States of India but
Srikakulam has not been included in spite of being a backward district In fact
not even one district of Andhra Pradesh has been included Andhra Pradesh has
seven backward districts out of total of 13 districts
The number of COVID-19 cases could go up in Srikakulam due to limited
availability of hospitals and COVID-care centres Therefore due to shortage of
beds patients with mild symptoms are sent back to their homes I request to
grant Rs 50 crore from PM CARES Fund to establish new COVID care centre
in the district
Under the Pradhan Mantri Street Vendorrsquos Atmanirbhar Nidhi Scheme
(PM SVANidhi Scheme) only the street vendors of urban local bodies are
included But in Srikakulam in the State of Andhra Pradesh many fish vendors
especially women work at the rural places as well If they can also be included
it would be better
With this I thank you for giving me this opportunity to speak

DR SUJAY VIKHE PATIL (AHMEDNAGAR) Thank you Sir for giving me a
chance to speak in this very important discussion on the outbreak of Corona
Pandemic in India Sir today as I stand to speak on this issue I would like to
begin with paying my tributes to the Corona warriors which include doctors
healthcare workers sanitation workers police staff and everyone who has
strengthened our fight against this virus
I would like to place on record my appreciation and gratitude to our Prime
Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji who has led from the front and with his decisive
leadership we have been able to successfully fight this battle I also thank Dr
Harshvardhan Ji for spearheading the efforts of the Ministry of Health and Family
Welfare
It is pertinent to note that we are currently facing a crisis which has
affected every single person and has brought not only the country but the whole
world to a standstill but our Government has been taking decisive steps at
regular intervals to ensure that every section of the society is benefited
Decisions like Atma Nirbhar Package of Rs20 lakh crore or PM Garib Kalyan
Yojana which has benefited more than 80 crore people are testaments to our
effective governance
Sir the Opposition has been regularly criticizing the decision of lockdown
instead of supporting the government in the fight against Corona It has been
estimated that this decision prevented approximately 14 lakh to 29 lakh cases
and 37000 to 78000 deaths
Further these four months were utilised to create additional health
infrastructure enhance human resource and produce within India critical
elements such as PPEs N-95 masks and ventilators A case in point is increase
in dedicated isolation beds around 363 times and dedicated ICU beds above
246 times to what existed in March 2020
Whereas there was no indigenous manufacturing of PPE with the
requisite standards at that point in time we are now self-sufficient and in a
position to even export the same
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 444
Sir I have few suggestions and recommendations
1 COVID-19 Fund
Under the National Health Mission the Government had in April 2020
announced significant investments to the tune of Rs15000 crores for India
COVID-19 Emergency Response and Health System Preparedness Package
The funds sanctioned will be utilized for immediate COVID-19 Emergency
Response (amount of Rs7774 crores) and rest for medium-term support (1-4
years) to be provided under mission mode approach
For my Ahmednagar Lok Sabha constituency a fund of about Rs 16 crore
has come under the National Health Mission There are two things regarding
that Firstly they have different provisions for purchase of equipment beds and
everything but as of now the situation is such that availability of beds are very
less even if we put an order regarding central oxygen system or facilities you
have advised along with no provision for a rental allowance For example if a
hospital is taken and the hospital has the entire facility of beds central oxygen
system and ventilators the District Collector or the District Administration does
not have funds to give for that hospital
2 Involvement of Member of Parliament
It has been more than 3 months since this package was announced and
even when its Centrally Sponsored it is my personal experience that the
concerned Member of Parliament is not taken into confidence regarding the
utilization of these funds The entire control has been vested with the Collector
who is already overburdened with several other obligations
I am a neurosurgeon and if representatives with specialized medical
knowledge are included while deciding the disbursement of funds under this
package it will ensure a holistic and better decision making process
3 RT - PCR Test
I really appreciate that we have increased the testing I would only make
a few suggestions as to what I have realized in this RT-PCR machine There are
two systems One is open and one is closed There has been increased cases
of variability in testing with negative showing as positive and positive showing
as negative due to the kits being used in an open-based system of PCR That
is very clear evidence that I found in my lab My recommendation would be that
in districts which do not have RT-PCR labs and private labs are available the
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 445
government should provide free kits on the lines of government hospitals to
ensure free investigation by private labs because we cannot bear the cost of the
kit but we are ready to bear the cost of the technicians the electricity etc So
private labs could be wilfully coming forward to do these tests for free
4 Problems being faced due to huge Indian population in fight against COVID-
19
The large Indian population does pose challenges in terms of health
service provision
However in the context of Covid-19 India has two socio-demographic
features that confer advantage First we have a demographically young
population which is better protected against severe illness than older
populations Second nearly two-thirds of India is rural The virus spreads more
slowly in rural areas than in urban areas due to less crowd density shorter
distances that most people commute to work and more open spaces It is
necessary however that we address the need of population stabilisation
through a broad range of strategies
5 Incentives for health workers dealing directly with Corona like doctors nurses
health workers like ASHA etc
There are two types of incentives (a) removal of the hurdles and
grievances that are impeding their work or endangering them (b) positive
incentives for boosting their morale and enhancing their performance
6 Need for self-sufficiency in API Production
From being reasonably self-reliant-both in drug formulation and API
production in the early 1990s India had become mostly import-dependent in
API Last year India imported roughly Rs50000 crore worth of APIs and other
intermediaries that go into production of finished formulations About Rs31740
crore worth of these were from China alone accounting for two-third of API
imports Of the top 20 imported APIs amounting to Rs3610 crore 68 per cent
were from China For production of several medicines import intensity from
China is alarmingly high
In case of streptomycin used in treating tuberculosis (TB) and other
infections nearly all imports are from China In case of penicillin another critical
antibiotic 90 per cent of imports are from China And 70 per cent of rifampicin
API (used for TB treatment) 63 per cent of erythromycin API (an antibiotic used
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 446
especially for respiratory infections) 82 per cent of glutamic acid and its salts
(treatment for nerve disorders) 80 per cent of aniline and its salts (for antioxidant
formulations) are imported from China
This Pandemic has brought an opportunity for India to regain its status as
a self-sufficient manufacturer of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients
7 Action against China at the International Level
China has not only created tension at the border but there are also strong
evidences to state that the COVID-19 virus is a lab made virus Chinese
virologist Dr Li-Meng Yan has claimed that coronavirus COVID-19 was made in
a Wuhan laboratory Dr Li-Meng Yan who was associated with Hong Kong
School of Public Health had been researching on the coronavirus for a long
time The Chinese virologist claimed that during her research she came across
that coronavirus was developed in laboratory in China
With these recommendations and suggestions I thank the government
and conclude my speech

SHRI NAMA NAGESWARA RAO (KHAMMAM) Hon Speaker Sir I thank you
for the time allotted to put across my views on the Bill
Whereas the Bill seems to be well intended some of the areas either not
so clear or missing
Policing in India is a State subject which means there are large variations
across the States This includes forensic science facilities as well
-----------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 454
In a large number of cases the results of forensic science aspects are to
be explained jointly with the observations relating to forensic medicine as in case
of poisoning firearm wounds suicides etc Hence it is important that studies in
Forensic medicines are also given due emphasis A burning case in point is the
case of alleged suicide by a Bollywood film actor being investigated and
discussed in media
Further the regional aspects are also to be given due consideration
Every region or State has its own issues and problems be it economic social
and cultural or such other factors or a combination of factors Therefore specific
studies are important and may be promoted even by the institutes of national
importance
There are other institutions of State and Centre that are also engaged in
similar works These institutions academic research centres laboratories and
other field units also need to be developed and integrated with these central and
State universities This will create synergy among them make the outcome
qualitative and more purposeful Such an arrangement will also make our effort
more efficient and avoid duplication as well as highlight areas of focus
It is suggested to create a knowledge-pool of the achievements of all such
institutions regional Central or belonging to States Such a sharing platform will
benefit all these organisations and keep them updated
To derive full benefit of the services of these institutions facilities for early
dissemination of knowledge is needed This will also benefit in identifying the
areas if studies to be given more focus or new areas to be studied
The State of Telangana has opened three regional Forensic Science
Laboratories This has not only made collection of evidence from the scene of
crimes faster but also saved evidences from destruction due to time gap
Further the early expert opinion has resulted in faster completion of
investigation of cases
Under the able and dynamic leadership of our CM of Telangana Shri KCR
garu the State police has brought various reforms in the Department for
providing better policing for the sake of people The State police are
implementing a number of Information Technology (IT) initiative that helped
police in detection and prevention of crimes in the State
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 455
Vacancies have been filled up and the police have come up with several
initiatives to engage with communities People are now bringing issues to the
notice of the police and throw up various facts social media etc and their
grievances are being addressed They are delivering round the clock revises for
crime prevention women safety and all other aspects There have been no
extremists and Maoist activities since the formation of the State
The State Government has made a provision for a sum of Rs 5852 crore
for police Department in the financial year 2020-21 Telangana received special
incentive funds of Rs 769 crore under modernisation scheme of the Centre due
to efficient implementation of police reforms in the State
These achievements show that modernisation of Police Force of the State
is important and the most important factor to strengthen the internal security
Hence the Centre should allocate more and more funds under this scheme and
continue the scheme as modernisation is an ongoing process Also the
allocation under the scheme be made on the basis of need of the State than the
population base so that the State police is able to achieve its modernisation
targets early and people are benefited
The most important aspect is how to take the benefits to the ground
Modalities may be developed to lay a mechanism for sharing of benefits by
stakeholders as early as possible Hon Police Commission reports that even
judicial guidelines could hardly be implemented due to various factors as stated
above Hence it is important that the State police is strengthened and
modernised
Our society is fast changing and so are the needs and aspirations of
people Rapid advancement of technology is making the changes even faster
Hence the needs modes and ways of policing are to be dynamic In this
background such academic institutions are to be dynamic in their approach with
respect to academics and research Only then they can meet the needs of the
society and keep pace with the change Hence keeping the management able
for change is of utmost importance Otherwise studies and efforts may become
irrelevant
Thank you

SHRI ABDUL KHALEQUE (BARPETA) Sir I have two observations to point out First the
passage of the Bill upgrades the existing Raksha University under the Government of
Gujarat which was established in 2009 and second it is only converting a State university
into a Central University
I do not see any reason why the Government is in a hurry to upgrade a State
university which is only a decade old whereas so many State institutions of higher
education across the country are demanding upgradation There are so many autonomous
and Central Government institutes of higher education One of the recent additions in 2018
was National Rail And Transportation Institute in Vadodara Why is the Government only
considering to establish premier institutions in Gujarat alone There are so many States
with lesser number of higher educational institutes We cannot put everything into one
basket There is a need to create a balance all over the country as far as education is
concerned Establishing such institutes also leads to development of that particular area
I can understand that Gujarat is the home State of Modi ji and Amit Shah ji but there are
other States too As one of the representatives of the people of North-East I hereby
demand the establishment of a campus of the university in Assam
I have no reason to hide the fact that the very name lsquoRashtriya Raksha Universityrsquo
is a bit deceiving The Rashtriya Raksha University is proposed to be a multi-disciplinary
university to create new knowledge through research and collaboration with different
stakeholders and help to fulfil the need for a pool of trained professionals with specialised
knowledge and new skill sets in various wings of policing criminal justice system and
correctional administration The university will have a linkage with world class universities
in other countries which will be on need basis for the purpose of exchange of contemporary
research academic collaboration course design technical knowhow training and skill
development

SHRI POCHA BRAHMANANDA REDDY (NANDYAL) Sir this Bill seeks to
provide for the establishment of the Rashtriya Raksha University and declares
the University to be an institution of national importance The Bill also repeals
the 2009 Act Our Party welcomes this initiative
There is an urgent need for institutions to provide police and security
services with the necessary academic knowledge professional skills and
community orientation At present there are only a few institutions in the
country which provide the environment infrastructure and specialisation for
imparting education in police sciences

SHRI POCHA BRAHMANANDA REDDY (NANDYAL) Yes Sir I hope that
this University will have a linkage with the world class universities in the other

With these words I support the Bill and congratulate the hon Home
Minister for introducing this Bill

शरी अधीर रजन चौधरी (बहरामपर) सर ि बोिना चाहता ह ा The Bill only covers close-
out netting The current Bill fails to provide other kinds of bilateral netting
practices for example netting by novation Netting by novation is a contractual
agreement whereby parties agree that all contracts between themselves will be
consolidated into a single contract as soon as each new contract is entered into
It reduces counterparty credit risk by affecting a discharge of each individual
foreign exchange contract or other obligation as it is netted If the Bill is intended
to truly widen the scope of the netting practice in India it could have included
methods such as netting by novation and payment netting
My second point is that there is potential for money-laundering and tax
avoidance Netting is allowed for transfer of money without actual transfer of
money Therefore netting becomes a potential bidding ground for trade-based
money-laundering and tax avoidance practices How will the Bill help in
regulating and offsetting this risk
Thirdly it is an overambitious move It is claimed by the Principal
Economic Adviser Shri Sanjeev Sanyal in an interview that this Bill will act as an
enabler to the corporate default swap market This in turn will help lay the
necessary condition to set up a liquid Indian corporate bond market CDS is not
a prerequisite for setting up a corporate bond market and there are major issues
with regard to regulation and supervision of both the CDS and bond market
which will not be mitigated by the introduction of this legislation What provision
has the Government made to address the regulatory issues arising due to the
legislation
My last point is about the impact on bank capital This Bill may not have a
significant impact on the capital of banks The ratio of market trade to the loan
book of public sector banks is not so high as to generate considerable capital-
saving from bilateral netting Thank you

Secondly I have a little doubt insofar as the number of deaths taking place
under Corona in our country are concerned It is because I think there is a
serious under-reporting of deaths in our country I do not know how many
hospitals of our country can issue the medical certification for causing of death
सर कहनद पपर ि एि िॉिि ि हिात दीपि िवाड और कगररडर गोपाि परििरन किखा था
(2100SMNSK)
According to the latest vital statistics of India based on the civil registration
system 86 per cent of the total deaths were registered out of which 22 per cent
had a medically certified cause of death This means 189 per cent of the total
death was medically certified with a cause of death To adjust for the prevailing
under-registration of deaths and poor coverage of MCCD we can multiply the
reported COVID-19 deaths by a multiplication factor of 529 for India and
calculated as the inverse of 189 per cent among total deaths based on 2018
CRS
This estimated COVID-19 death per million population is higher than
Russia It is similar to South Africa It is lower than USA It is 99 per cent in
Brazil It is 10 per cent MCCD in Mexico It is 95 per cent MCCD in Chile It is
95 per cent in Spain Even in Iran it is 90 per cent MCCD
Madhya Pradesh West Bengal UP Bihar and Jharkhand constitute 43
per cent of national population These States with 12 per cent MCCD coverage
and less than 10000 COVID-19 test per million contribute to 38 per cent of the
total estimated COVID-19 death

DR UMESH G JADHAV (GULBARGA) Thank you Speaker Sir for giving
me this opportunity to speak in this august House on COVID-19 pandemic that
is facing the country
As we all know the first case of COVID-19 was found in Kerala on January
30 2020 and the first death due to COVID-19 was reported on March 11 2020
in Kalaburagi district of Karnataka which falls in my parliamentary constituency
It was marked as the countryrsquos first fatality from the global pandemic
The first ever COVID-19 case was recorded in China last year Since then
the virus has spread around the world and in January 2020 it was declared as
pandemic by the World Health Organisation
I would like to tell the House that a research had revealed that India may
record nearly 13 lakh COVID-19 positive cases by mid-May if the spread of virus
is not contained by taking stringent measures and implementing restrictions
India witnessed 101139 COVID-19 cases by 18th May 2020 Initially it was
considered that India was dealing well in containing the number of COVID-19
cases by maintaining social distance and thereby a constricted transmission of
the disease during lockdown period
I would like to say that both the Central Government and the State
Government of Karnataka are working intensely to keep the number of COVID-
19 positive cases minimum The Government is taking all necessary steps ndash by
involving public medical associations nurses NGOs police forces including
paramilitary forces - to combat the challenges and threat posed by this growing
invisible pandemic war The earnest efforts on the part of the frontline workers
especially the doctors nurses healthcare staff sanitation workers police
personnel volunteers with the active support of people of India have resulted in
making the treatment of the patients possible and thereby in controlling this
pandemic
In March we started with only few testing centres performing less than
100 tests per day On 18th September India has conducted over 1000000 tests
in a single day and is having as many as 1764 COVID-19 testing laboratories

The Union Government has announced a Rs20 lakh crore recovery
package to revive our economy A small component of this was allocated to the
Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act as well
I would like to mention that NREGA has offered opportunity to the migrant
workers who were forced to return to their homes jobless to earn their
livelihood In Kalaburagi district more than 55000 migrant workers who were
working in the Capital and other major cities returned home and around 12 lakh
workers moved within the State From 1st April 2020 to 15th September 2020
under NREGA there has been a huge rise in creation of Job Cards and as many
as 98424 people have been enrolled for getting new Job Card Under
MGNREGA approximately 140750 families have been benefitted From 1st
April 2020 to 15th September 2020 4263404 man-days have been generated
This number itself shows how MGNREGA has brought changes in the livelihood
of many families
This pandemic has also seen a huge rise in the number of people who
have taken agriculture as the primary occupation for their livelihood In any case
agriculture is arguably the least affected sectors of the economy It is seen as
the only bright spot in an otherwise dismal economic state which is poised to
gain and is likely to lead the economyrsquos revival process
The bumper rabi harvest is a good sign but farm labour economy has been
adversely affected There has been a large-scale reverse migration of workers
from urban and rural work destinations This will at least in the short run add
workers to the rural work force
In the short run wages are likely to remain sticky and we will witness a
significant increase in demand for work under MGNREGA especially in source
areas which are invariably the poorest If implemented well MGNREGA can
paly an important role in making sure that workers find work and contribute to
improving agriculture sectorrsquos outlook
MGNREGA has another important role which becomes particularly crucial
in COVID-19 pandemic By adopting best practices it acts as a beacon for
establishing the terms of engagement for hiring labour in rural areas In making
an Atmanirbhar Bharat an additional Rs40000 crore has been allocated to
MGNREGA for creation of jobs in Indiarsquos hinterland Earlier in the Budget for
this financial year the Government had allocated Rs61000 crore to
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 362
MGNREGA Thus for the first time ever the total allocation made to MGNREGA
for any financial year comes to over Rs100000 crore
Finally the effectiveness of MGNREGA as a tool for post-COVID-19 rural
economic recovery will depend on three things
1 Whether the local administration is equipped to implement it as a
demand-driven programme
2 Whether village panchayats are well-equipped to take advantage of
it and
3 Whether useful assets are created that will boost local agrarian
economy
With this I would like to conclude my speech Thank you

SHRI DUSHYANT SINGH (JHALAWAR-BARAN) Hon Speaker Sir I thank
you for letting me participate in this discussion on ldquoCOVID-19 Pandemic in the
Countryrdquo under Rule 193
Firstly I would like to thank our hon Prime Minister for his vision and
leadership to drive the country through the pandemic I am sure Speaker Sir
the worst of the pandemic is behind us With declining growth of active cases
and fatality ratio the nation will emerge out stronger from the crisis
It is sad to know that till now more than 85000 people have died in the
country due to the COVID-19 pandemic But I would also like to mention that
India is one of the few countries in the world with lowest mortality rate below 4
per cent even when the mortality rate peaked in April I would like to mention
that in the month of May at the global level the mortality rate had peaked at
more than 7 per cent levels
It is due to the timely measures taken by our hon Prime Minister Shri
Narendra Modi that we have been able to maintain less than 3 of mortality
rate and have successfully continued to reduce the mortality rate below 2 per
cent levels today
Today in India the rate of growth of active cases has fallen to 07 per
cent we can soon expect the growth rate of active cases to fall down close to
zero per cent which is essentially known as ldquoFlattening of the curverdquo for active
cases India has done appreciable job in reducing mortality rate as compared to
the developed economies of the West We all should unanimously appreciate
and laud the Prime Minister for his quick decisions and guidance for the country
It is really sad to see that some States being one of the most developed
States of the country Maharashtra is failing to reduce Test Positivity Rate below
20 per cent It is saddening to see one in every five persons tested testing
positive Many States have done commendable job in increasing testing and
maintaining lower test positivity rate and lower case fatality rate

Secondly we must appreciate the efforts made by doctors nurses para-
medical staff in such times In such difficult times the police forces bureaucrats
have been working overtime away from their family I bow down to them for their
service to the nation in such difficult times There have been a lot of NGOs
thousands of volunteers who have supported the efforts of Government in
checking the spread of COVID-19 virus
I have learnt that about 382 doctors have died on duty the country shall
forever be indebted to them for their service and sacrifice I request the
Government to acknowledge their sacrifice and provide them with appropriate
compensation for their service
Further I also thank all my colleagues from Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha
for their service to the people of their constituency the migrant workers and the
citizens of India during the lockdown
Speaker Sir in my constituency of Jhalawar-Baran along with the
Karyakartas of Bharatiya Janata Party our teams have distributed food packets
dry ration kits ayurvedic kaadha masks sanitizers and even footwear to
migrant workers irrespective of their cast and religion
In Baran district the Karyakarta of BJP have distributed 3700 ration kits
about more than 12 lakh cooked food packet 15000 people were distributed
ayurvedic kaadha We distributed about 32000 masks in socio-economically
backward regions of Baran district In Baran we even helped and supported the
migrant workers passing through on feet About 15000 cooked food packets
were distributed to the migrant workers and 300 pairs of footwear were
distributed
In Jhalawar district the BJP Karyakartas have distributed more than 2
lakh cooked food packets 27700 dry ration kits and 270 pairs of footwear to the
migrant workers
I thank the volunteer who all worked hard towards supporting the people
of Jhalawar-Baran

DR T SUMATHY (A) THAMIZHACHI THANGAPANDIAN (CHENNAI
SOUTH) Hon Speaker Vanakkam
COVlD-19 is an imported disease and self-inflicted disaster It was
originated in China and spread to all countries through humans only The first
COVID-19 positive case was identified in Kerala on 31 January 2020
Thereafter it started to rise through further arrival of foreign passengers and
their immediate contacts So the Government and everyone knew about the
veracity of COVID-19 by January and February 2020 itself No one can dispute
it
By the time that is 18 March 2020 the Union Government had decided
to stop all international passenger flights and banned the entry of anyone from
abroad almost an estimated 25 lakh passengers from abroad have entered and
dispersed across various States corners of India Thus the Coronavirus crisis
started in India a big blunder which could not be resolved till date
If the Government acted in time that is January or February and stopped
those arriving from abroad and isolated those arrived for a month or so then the
country might not get this virus entry into every corner of the country and the
common man might not be at a receiving end Due to lethargic and improperly
acts of the Government the virus spread across the country The Government
should shoulder the responsibility as it failed to act in time and now crushing the
common man who is vulnerable and unbearable to the situation It is not even
extending any sufficient relief to those in need Several households are facing
food scarcity I just leave it to the hon Members sitting in this august House to
understand and judge where when and how it went wrong to reach this
unbearable lockdown
The life of migrant labourers is beyond all levels of suffering The pictures
of the migrant workers leaving the cities by foot with their luggage in one hand
holding the children in other many young men carrying their aged mother or
father on their shoulders the small children walking along with their parents in
sweltering heat without chappals will be etched in our sad memories forever
------------------------

The ghastly images of migrant workers smashed by a goods train in
Maharashtra cannot be deleted from the dark pages of history which happened
due to the inefficiency and incompetence of the ruling Government
The Government at the Centre blaming the State Governments for their
grave mistakes has become a common phenomenon The ill effects and ground
reality due to COVlD-19 lockdown on the people of this country is still not
ascertained properly Barring the people who get a regular income monthly as
salary or pension all others are suffering a lot Out of the 138-crore population
100 crores are plunged into deep trouble People working as daily wage
labourers those working in unorganised sector farm workers migrant labourers
from various categories lorry tempo taxi and auto drivers domestic workers
have suffered severely due to this self-inflicted COVID-19 crisis
In India there are around one crore drivers who earn their livelihood
through driving vehicles from lorry bus car and auto rickshaws The five months
lockdown has destroyed their career beyond recuperation Those who had
borrowed loan from banks or private lenders for their taxis and autos were
unable to pay their loan dues They too have a family living in a single room
house with aged parents unmarried sisters wives and children We just cannot
imagine the difficulties faced by them during the lockdown period
All I want to say is that the Government has not applied its mind and have
not done enough homework to be in the state of preparedness and readiness to
fight COVlD-19 crisis The Government either failed to analyse the inputs
reaching from China and other countries when the COVlD-19 started there in
December or it is the blatant failure of intelligence and diplomats working in
China and abroad Nevertheless we had three full months of time to prepare
and plan to combat COVlD-19 but failed miserably to be prepared This is due
to the Governmentrsquos preoccupation to prepare for the extravaganza related to
the personal visit of US President during 23rd to 24th February 2020
Secondly when the entire world was busy in preparation to fight COVID-
19 the ruling Government was cunningly cleverly and keenly focused only on
dislodging the duly elected Government in Madhya Pradesh using unethical
means This greediness to derail the duly elected Government has made the
Government insane and insensitive to the early warnings of some senior MPs
and leaders of opposition parties and the Government continued to run
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 377
Parliament till 23rd March 2020 when the Government mission was successfully
accomplished a day before Madhya Pradesh Government was captured and
the very next day full lockdown was announced by the Prime Minister and it
came into effect all over the country without any thoughts on the people
especially the migrant workers That is why when COVID-19 started to spread
in India we did not have even testing kits with us or laboratories to check and
ascertain the COVlD-19 patients There was very low production of protective
gears PPEs masks gloves and we lagged far behind in the supply of sanitisers
too That is the reason why India could not respond effectively to fight against
Corona and the numbers got increased
In India regular testing started happening only in the first week of March
after the emergence of the first few cases Starting with just one laboratory the
Pune-based National Institute of Virology that was testing samples at that time
India now managed to have a network of more than 1100 laboratories that are
conducting these diagnostic tests More than two lakh samples are being tested
every day Considering the large population the penetration of testing is still
quite low Indiarsquos testing numbers per one million population are still low
compared to many other countries
The Government says that economy was badly affected during COVID-
19 lockdown Agreed But was our economy booming in the previous years of
this Government No It is getting bad to worse and worse to worst in the last
six years and has reached point of no return at the moment Today I have no
hesitation in saying that our countryrsquos economy is pushed a clear 20 years back
and it will take several years of herculean works to set it right and put it back
In this precarious condition the countryrsquos economy is reeling under
tremendous pressure and distress Our countryrsquos GDP will certainly show a
negative growth The humongous damage caused to our economy before and
after COVID-19 has pushed us to years backward It may take six years or more
for our country to reach the same position India was in 2013 That too if a steady
8-10 per cent growth in GDP is achieved in the next six years But as of now we
have -239 per cent GDP The internal debt of the country has crossed Rs 100
lakh crore This means we have already lost 12 years I wish the Government
do not commit any hara-kiri and also hope that there will be no more big
calamities or any self-inflicted catastrophe
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 378
On the financial front actually the Union government should have
convened a Special Session of Parliament to recalculate and recalibrate the
income possibilities and expenditure priorities as the already passed Budget is
by now unrealistic The Budget 2020-21 passed by Parliament looks
unachievable due to the loss of time and opportunities The priorities have
changed drastically after the COVlD-19 crisis The provisions made for many
projects could be modified postponed or withdrawn accordingly It is therefore
very important to have a Revised Budget 2020-21 with more emphasis on new
initiatives with adequate financial provisions to mitigate the issues and problems
encountered by the people aftermath of COVlD-19 lockdown crisis It is
therefore my humble request to the hon Prime Minister and the Finance
Minister to convene a Special Session of Parliament and make suitable changes
in Budget 2020-21 and make it practically achievable
Government of India should openly announce the details of the trade and
economic deals bilateral treaties signed with China in the last six years and
explain to the people of our country why the Modi Government has signed such
deals with the brutal and treacherous country like China in the last six years in
spite of heavy opposition from nationalists from various corners of the country
The adamant behaviour of leaders of both countries fully know the
imminent danger and disadvantages faced by our country due to these treaties
and trade deals For whose benefit these deals and treaties are signed Order
for an independent authority to probe and find the intricacies of the trade deficits
and economic imbalances in these deals and treaties It is high time for the
Government to speak the truth with the common public Otherwise History will
punish the people who are responsible for this debacle beyond just words
The COVlD-19 crisis has left every profession and professional in the-
lurch be it a Doctor or Engineer or Lawyer a category of people who have
established their career and serving the society The medical practitioners and
their staff are the most affected and in fighting COVID-19 many in this medical
field have lost their invaluable lives The Engineering professionals and IT
professionals were affected very much due to the COVlD-19 lockdown
The COVID-19 crisis has worsened the life of genuine lawyers and their
clients who solely depends on justice to be delivered in time Justice delayed is
Justice denied Courts in India are paralyzed by COVlD-19 crisis and plagued
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 379
by the shortage of Judges The Union Law Ministry is on ldquoKumbhakarna Sleep
Moderdquo
There are 60000 cases pending in the Supreme Court and 45 lakh cases
in 25 High Courts in the country At the District and subordinate court levels the
number of pending cases stand at a shocking Rs 314 crore as of November
2019 27 lakh of these cases are less than years old 85 lakh are pending for
more than five years but less than 10 years and 85 lakh are over 10 year old
The COVlD-19 crisis has paralyzed and the lockdown has knocked down
the Judicial System and most of the genuine lawyers have literally knocked out
of jobs became incomeless clients shed tears of blood But as far as the Judges
and court staffs like Registrars Assistant Registrars Court Marshals etc are
concerned they enjoy a paid lockdown There is not a single penny loss though
they work just 20-30 per cent to their capacity and capabilities
COVID-19 has robbed the people three months of court proceedings and
genuine open court arguments In the absence of any personal interaction or
open court hearings the Registry departments of Courts have become the Demi
Gods and the Judges have literally turned into invisible Lords
The Indian judiciary is already suffering due to the shortage of judges
Nearly 40 per cent of sanctioned number of Judges are still unfilled
Unfortunately the Union Law Ministry and Ministerial people of State
Governments are sleeping as if heavens are not going to fall If the courts are
not functioning to its full potential the Government is least bothered of the
dangerous consequences of paralyzing of our Judicial System not working to
the fullest capacity and potential When everything is lost people look up on
Judiciary and Justice and if that Judicial System is not working to the desired
levels a kind of alleged Police excess and lawlessness in the society is
inevitable It is time to wake up or else expect a catastrophe Hope the top ranks
in the Government and Judiciary will discuss deliberate and come up with some
real solution to address this unprecedented lockdown in Judicial system
If the COVID-19 situation is not going to improve and if the Government
of India does not intervene next few months will witness that several lakh people
packing their baggage permanently back to India As per the recent data there
are about 15 crore NRls and 2 crore PlOs living all around the World The
COVID-19 may force at least one quarter of this 15 crore NRl population and
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 380
10 per cent of the 25 crore PIOs return to India which means at least 50 lakh
people who had a settled life would be unsettled and forced to come back
Countries like Australia Bahrein Bhutan Canada China Germany Italy
Kuwait Malaysia Nepal Netherlands New Zealand Nigeria Oman
Philippines Qatar Saudi Arabia Singapore South Africa Spain UAE UK and
USA have large NRl population While Australia Canada Fiji France Germany
Guyana Indonesia Israel Italy Jamaica Kenya Malaysia Mauritius Myanmar
Netherlands New Zealand Portugal Singapore South Africa Sri Lanka
Suriname Tanzania Thailand Trinidad and Tobago UK and USA have large
PlO population
The plight of those people who were to return to these countries to
continue their education business or professional work will not be permitted until
and unless COVlD-19 situation improves in India thereby causing enormous
stress and suffering to these people The government should find a remedial
solution to this crisis through the diplomatic routes Otherwise the life and career
of these people will be lost
COVID-19 crisis if not for a comprehensive drugvaccine to control the
spread of the virus would affect and alter the demography of the world countries
in the coming months Indian Diaspora is going to be the worst hit I urge the
Union Government to take all possible diplomatic and political administrative
steps to stop or reduce this Demographic relocation
The fishermen community in Tamil Nadu are one of the most affected
communities in the country due to the COVID-19 crisis and the unprecedented
and unplanned lockdown Already year after year the fishermen of coastal
Tamil Nadu were battered by natural calamities as well as from indiscreet
interference by the Sri Lankan counterparts The COVID-19 has completely
collapsed their livelihood Export of Fish and marine products has paralysed
beyond recuperation at this juncture
The coastal corridor in Tamil Nadu consists of 13 districts with 15 major
ports and harbours sandy beaches lakes and river estuaries Tamil Nadu has
a fishermen population of 2 million and the coast consists of three major fishing
harbours three medium fishing harbours and 363 fish landing centres
Unfortunately there have been several incidents of fighting for fishing rights
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 381
between Indian and Sri Lankan fishermen while fishing in the Palk Strait where India
and Sri Lanka are only separated by 12 nautical miles
Fishing has to be recognised at par with agriculture The fisher communities
suffer very much due to natural calamities like cyclone rough sea heavy rains heavy
floods hurricanes and tsunami They need waiving of their loans by Government
COVlD-19 has created a very bad situation for fishermen Governments at both
Centre and State together should provide Rs 5000 to about Rs 50000 to poor
fishermen in Tamil Nadu to mitigate the Coronavirus lockdown crisis
The continuous increase in the price of petroldiesel during the COVlD-19
crisis is like rubbing salt on the wounds People sufferings have reached
threshold levels I urge the Union Government to act with compassion and
common sense to reduce the escalating petroldiesel prices immediately It is
high time for the Government to reduce the petrol and diesel prices Otherwise
people will suffer from an unprecedented agony and pain
Indiarsquos COVlD-19 scenario is going from ldquobad to worserdquo stage to ldquoworse
to the worstrdquo stage and our hon Prime Minister is busy in feeding peacock
writing poems and continue his rhetoric speeches like his usual monthly Mann
Ki Baat It took 110 days for COVID-19 cases in India to reach one lakh while
just 59 days more to go past 10 lakhs Indiarsquos COVID-19 cases rose from 10
lakh to 20 lakhs in 21 days and 20 lakhs to 30 lakhs in just 16 days Indiarsquos
COVID-19 tally had crossed the 20-lakh mark on 7th August and went past 30
lakhs on 23rd August From 30 to 50 lakhs an addition of 20 lakh cases took just
three weeks At this current rate we can presume that by the end of September
Indiarsquos COVID-19 tally would easily cross 60 lakhs With the death toll increasing
steadily there is no way we could expect normalcy by October or November
There could be possibility to impose the lockdown once again till a vaccine to
curb COVlD-19 is discovered and distributed for public use Let us see the
further lsquoAct of Godrsquo is benevolent and merciful
COVID-19 has not spared anyone Even in the high-profile Ministers and
Members of Parliament are being affected Take the case of our Union Home
Minister He is the second most protected person in the country Only the
designated and approved individuals are allowed to meet him or come into any
kind of physical proximity with him Therefore the hon Home Minister getting
infected by COVID-19 and that too when the country needs him 247 he was
indisposed for several days It needs to be probed to ascertain if there is any
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 382
sabbatical move to curb the functioning of the all-powerful Minister l urge the
Government to initiate a fact-finding inquiry in this regard
On one side COVlD-19 has become the biggest health hazard and on the
other side the countryrsquos finance is shrinking like never before When the finances
drying up fast with considerable decline in the revenue the biggest problem for the
Government will be to fund its own projects in the coming months
Sir India is not an under developed country But it has been ruined by
underdeveloped minds This Government has lost its focus and attention and drift
away from economic priorities But it seems to be happy to focus more on divisive
religious ideologies and priorities This Government is not a game changer but only
a name changing Government It is either a slogging Government or just a
sloganeering Government This Government needs mentoring on all aspects of
politics economy and public welfare Electoral success will not guarantee a success
in governance too The real problem of the present Government is that if the pressing
issues are not addressed properly we might see a catastrophe in near future What
we need at the moment is a collective lsquoSave Indiarsquo Movement not a lsquoSlave Indiarsquo
Movement
I am really sorry to say that India has not only lost a golden opportunity to avert
the COVlD-19 but it has failed beyond the recovery in all other fronts It will be an
uphill task for the Government and the people of our country to come out of the
COVlD-19 crisis and its ill effects As far as Tamil Nadu is concerned we have great
people but miserable rulers at the moment Whatever happened we cannot stop now
The most pathetic thing is that people at the helm of affairs at the Government in
Tamil Nadu have indulged in corruption and siphoning of the amount designated for
COVID-19 crisis People are the ultimate sufferers due the inefficient Governments
at Centre and at State which has damaged the social fabric of the country including
Tamil Nadu This is the harsh and bitter truth The difficulties of the people may
increase manyfold once the lockdown is lifted but at the moment there is no way the
Government can lift the lockdown as the COVlD-19 cases in the country are
increasing in lakhs each day and the death toll is reaching one lakh
If this is the situation at the ground level today I cannot imagine how bad it
would turn out after two months when the cold weather and rains engulf the most of
the country COVID-19 crisis has left us with no other choice not because it is serious
but because of the incapable insensitive Governments at both Centre and State

SHRI B B PATIL (ZAHIRABAD) Sir Indias corona virus tally has raced past
the 54-lakh mark as more than 93337 COVID-19 cases were registered in the
last 24 hours according to the latest government figures
The data also underlines that the death toll in the nation has crossed the
86752 figure With a vaccine fit for public circulation still at least six to ten
months away the pandemic continues to ravage the country as
cases of cross-infection rise in the nation
While global health experts and scientists have been warning about the
onset of community transmission in India the Government still maintains that
there is no community spread in the country currently
Community transmission occurs when the source of the
contagion is not known ie when you cannot identify the clear source of
infection in a new community and the virus can infect anyone with no history of
contact with affected people and areas
In this scenario it becomes impossible to trace the original source of
infection back to a carrier
At this stage of the transmission where a person with no travel history or
any contact with infected people can also catch the infection
The national capital which was seemingly on a lsquopath of recoveryrsquo after
hitting the supposed peak in the month of July again started witnessing a sharp
rise in the corona virus cases from the last week of August till now
India has become the second worst affected nation by the COVID-19
pandemic We might soon overtake the USA in the total number of infections
next month
So far COVID-19 infections were heavily concentrated in large cities
located in Indias more prosperous States Delhi Mumbai Chennai among
others
The preparedness of the health system is much higher there than
elsewhere But recorded cases are now rising fast in Indias poorer States
where health services are very fragile
As the COVID-19 crisis absorbs their meager resources many public
health centers have stopped providing routine services
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 384
Even child immunization has been discontinued for months in many
States Some States paint a grim picture of missing doctors unattended
patients broken equipment and stray dogs Where are people with routine
health problems supposed to go
Not to forget the issues faced by disabled persons be it Financial
difficulties lack of access to essential services and little to no
assistance from the government were and still is some of the difficulties that
persons with disabilities have been facing during the COVID-19 and lockdown
In India there is one doctor for every 1457 people as per the
countrys current population estimate of 135 billion which is
lower than the World Health Organisation norm of 11000 as per
the Government
The other reason for a possible mortality spike is that Indias
prolonged national lockdown (from late March until unlock phases
began in June) has destroyed millions of peoples livelihoods
Local lockdowns continue in many States and are likely to persist off and
on for months Unlike affluent countries India has very little to show by way of
a social security system except for food subsidies and some relief work under
the National Rural Employment Guarantee Act
The employment crisis has already hit poor households really hard
Extreme food insecurity during and after the lockdown
Just to cite one 78 percent of the 25000 respondents in the nationwide
CSDS (Centre for the Study of Developing Societies) survey said that they had
found it quite difficult or ldquovery difficult to feed their families during the
lockdown
Acute food insecurity is very likely to translate into higher mortality
For children it also means lasting damage from malnutrition
A recent survey of some 20000 returning migrant workers found that 60
per cent were unable to ensure two square meals for all members of the family
With the local economy in the doldrums except for farming casual
workers are heading for a prolonged period of underemployment and hunger
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 385
With tax revenue a fraction of normal levels State Governments are finding
it difficult to provide more than symbolic relief The Central Government is doing little
to help them
Without much help from the Centre our Telangana Government still has been
taking several measures to tackle COVID-19 cases in the State and provide relief to
the people of the State
The Central Government did launch some limited relief measures during the
national lockdown such as free food-grain rations of five kilograms per person per
month for two thirds of Indias population
But now it seems to have lost interest and left it to the State Governments to
handle the crisis Doctors and nurses critical of the Governments crisis response
have been muzzled or harassed as have many journalists been
Muddled statistics are routinely invoked to reassure the public that all is well
In its hurry to turn India into a viswaguru (world leader) the Modi
Government seems to have little patience for a humanitarian crisis Yet denying a
crisis is the surest way to make it worse There seems no one way of ending the
pandemic in sight We need to bring the focus on controlling the spread of the
disease It can only be achieved through a degree of herd immunity following the
social distancing norms and a safe and effective vaccine
The combination of all three measures will only be helpful in slowing down
the spread of the disease However delivering a vaccine is easier said than done
From timely regulatory approvals to devising protocols for inoculation in a country
like India with over 138 billion population there can be quite a few challenges
authorities will have to tackle
Several countries have already drawn up plans to ensure priority access to
any approved COVID vaccine for the essential workers like defence men healthcare
workers and teaching staff Many also feel that the elderly need to be inoculated
first Indian authorities too need to figure out the priority groups which would need
coverage first
Smoothening out delivery details like this would get rid of confusion and
provide more security to those who could be at a higher risk than others Phased
out vaccination drive instead of or random dosage would also work out for the best
in a country with a sizeable population like India
Steps taken by Telangana Government amid COVID-19
Movement Restrictions

DR KALANIDHI VEERASWAMY (CHENNAI NORTH) I thank you for allowing
this discussion which is very pertinent and appropriate at this time to discuss the
effects of COVID-19 and the Governmentrsquos handling of the situation
I would like to go through the unfolding events in a chronological manner
to remind the House of the events which unfolded The first news of COVID-19
as a global threat started in November 2019 from the news about a deadly
disease killing several people in Wuhan China The Chinese Government
announced lockdown in several regions progressively from 23rd January 2020
Other countries announced lockdown from as early as 12th March 2020
and our hon Prime Minister announced lockdown on 23rd March 2020 which
lasted for almost ten weeks The sudden announcement of the lockdown threw
the country in utter turmoil which created the following difficulties starvation
unemployment no access to medical supplies or help and migrant labour issues
apart from complaints of discrimination and police excesses
Sir I would like to point out that a father and a son duo (Bennix and
Jayaraj) were tortured to death by the Tamil Nadu Police and the opposition
parties and public had to stage huge protests to bring the perpetrators to justice
This shows the extent of police excesses which prevailed in Tamil Nadu
Sir the medical facilities in the initial days of the lockdown were so
unorganised that people were running from pillar to post to get admitted in the
hospitals despite Tamil Nadu having one of the most robust healthcare
infrastructures Thanks to leaders like Perarignar Anna Kalaignar Karunanidhi
and M G Ramachandran
The performance of the Governments both Central and the State were
closely monitored by our Party leader Thiru M K Stalin and constructive
suggestions were provided which were ignored The Chief Minister of Tamil
Nadu gave wrong information like the disease will come under control within a
few days which led to carelessness by the people which further fomented the
spread of infection In addition the deaths of several hundred people were
overlooked with the dead bodies being handed over to family which further
spread the disease among thousands
------------------------

Our leader Thiru M K Stalin with his call for ldquoOndrinaivaom Vaardquo which
means lsquoletrsquos unitersquo initiated the programme to feed almost one crore people and
supply medical supplies for the needy I under the able guidance of my leader
was able to feed several thousand families
Sir the efforts of the medical community has to be acknowledged and I
would like to pay homage to hundreds if not more of medical personnel who
lost their lives fighting this dreadful disease It is said that the Government is
unaware of the people who have laid their lives fighting this dreadful disease I
would like to urge the Government to list out the names and honour them their
efforts should not be forgotten as they are martyrs of this country
The Governmentrsquos support for the people has much to be desired The
so-called financial package was a joke with the people of this country The poor
entrepreneurs and MSMEs were all left in the lurch to fend for themselves which
led to starvation deaths migrant labourersrsquo deaths and closure of several
thousand MSMEs
Sir the National Disaster Management Authority headed by the hon
Prime Minister should look into the Report of the Task Force to Review DM Act
2013 which said that the present structure of various authorities under the DM
Act are not conducive for carrying out the tasks it has been mandated to perform
Perhaps if the PM had followed the report the disaster could have been better
managed I hope at least now with lessons learnt from our shortfalls the
Government would strengthen the National Disaster Management Authority as
the days ahead look gloomy with possibility of recurrence of these kinds of
biological attacks manmade or godsent and also with the precarious situation
with our neighbouring countries

SHRIMATI SUPRIYA SADANAND SULE (BARAMATI) According to the World
Bank Policy Note on Gender Dimensions of COVID-19 Pandemic such
pandemics are likely to affect women disproportionately more than men
If we talk about gender implications for health disease exposure in short
term is more for women because of following factors there is a larger share of
women in the health sector and as home and family caregivers which makes
them more exposed to contagion occupational sex-segregation also results in
different levels of exposure - women are more present in client-facing roles in
retail travel leisure and hospitality girls face constraints to access healthcare
services - as per the report by the WHO in India boys are more likely (and
sooner) taken to a qualified health professional for treatment than girls
The recommendation is that providing protective equipment and materials
and COVID-19 testing to higher-risk populations will be key to prevent their
contagion
As far as disruptions in reproductive health care services for women is
concerned the shift in resources towards addressing the public health
emergency can entail disruptions to key health services for women such as
reproductive health services There is for instance evidence of increase in
maternal mortality due to lack of critical resources in similar crises Pregnant
women can be particularly vulnerable in this context
The recommendation is that the pregnant women and maternity wards
require particular attention during the containment phase
Now I am coming to gender implications for education Given the fall in
incomes of households during a pandemic educational investment decisions
are likely to be altered Intra-household allocation of resources for schooling
might be redirected to boys over girls
The recommendation is that targeted measures needed for a section of
girls with no access to lCTs (Internet and Communication Technologies)
The disruption of services with school closures can lead to an increase in
the burden of care-related tasks - likely impacting girls more than boys This will
affect their ability to stay engaged in education in the longer term
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 394
Possibility of an increase in child labour and dropouts - during the
pandemic the pressure to contribute to the family income may also increase
with the tightening economic conditions leading to permanent school dropout
The recommendation is that financial incentive programs can help
encourage families to send children back to school when the confinement phase
is over
There are gender implications for employment and economic conditions
Women will likely experience a significant burden on their time given their
multiple care responsibilities as school closures and confinement measures are
adopted possibly leading to reductions in their working time and permanent exit
from the labour market The over-representation of women among the inactive
population and in vulnerable forms of work (such as informal employment or
domestic work) heightens their vulnerability to poverty in times of crisis
The recommendations are the effectiveness of social protection
responses to the crisis can be improved if these gender dimensions are
considered Social messaging as part of the emergency response can
contribute to a more balanced distribution of household responsibilities and
resources between men and women Cash transfer programs to the most
vulnerable groups including women only households (for example single
mothers with children widows or female farmers) will be necessary both as part
of the emergency response and in the longer term Specific programs to support
womens return to economic activity will also play a central role For example-
public works access to training and credit direct provision of productive inputs
to female farmers
Gender implications within household ndash as regards domestic violence an
increase in gender-based violence (and its severity and frequency) due to
confinement can be observed across countries The stretched capacity of
response services might reduce the protection and support available
contributing to a heightened perception of impunity among perpetrators
The recommendation is that protection and support services need to be
in place and increases in the capacity may be required Innovative solutions to
provide reporting mechanisms for women victims and to accommodate them
and their children will be necessary Social awareness will be key as well as
engaging informal support networks and health workers

There are some important concerns in the way the Centre handled the
pandemic The overall Indias response to the pandemic has been reactionary
instead of being preventive and precautionary The Centre failed to ensure sufficient
availability of PPEs to frontline healthcare professionals NGOs and State
Governments responded better to the needs of citizens than the Centre For
example as part of its efforts to ease distress caused by COVID-19 the Pratibha
Foundation in association with the Yashaswini Samajik Abhiyaan has distributed
protective masks hand gloves hand sanitizers and PPE (Personal Protective
Equipment) kits to healthcare personnel at the forefront including police officers
Foundation also aided the needy households who are strapped of their daily wage
income by providing them with basic necessities food ration and served prepared
food daily to people stranded at the Daund railway station Pune
Until mid-July 2020 there were only two laboratories in India to test and certify
quality of Body-Coveralls for COVID-19 In an Unstarred Question on PPE suits
(QNo935 on 18092020) the Centre acknowledged that as of April 2020 there
were only two laboratories in the country which have the facilities as well as
necessary approvals for conducting tests on Body Coveralls (PPE) required for
COVID-19 These are South India Textiles Research Association (SITRA)
Coimbatore and Defence Research amp Development Establishment (DRDE) Gwalior
The Tests and Certifications of Body Coveralls (PPE) conducted at these two
laboratories in India are the only officially recognized ones
It was not until 16th July 2020 that 9 other testing facilities were announced
Such lack of sufficient facilities to test PPEs could have contributed to the delay in
PPE availability to healthcare workers The High-Level Group on Health Sector
constituted by the Fifteenth Finance Commission in May 2018 headed by Dr
Randeep Guleria Director AIIMS recommended shifting health from the State to the
Concurrent List During the times of a pandemic like COVID-19 effective
coordination between Centre and the States inter-state coordination is important to
respond effectively to the pandemic To enable this and to ensure a more active
responsible role for itself the Centre can consider shifting health subject from the
State List to the Concurrent List in the Seventh Schedule of the Constitution
The Fifteenth Finance Commission High-Level Group on Health Sector and
World Bank met on 21st May 2020 To improve the health response mechanisms in
India the World Bank recommended focus on quality of care centrally sponsored
schemes increasing per capita health spending among others Given that COVID-
19 primarily affects the respiratory system it stressed that infectious diseases like
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 396
tuberculosis need attention What suggestions and comments made during this
meeting has the Centre included in its COVID-19 response plan
India COVID-19 Emergency Response and Health Systems Preparedness
Package (ERampHSP) was approved by Cabinet on 22nd April 2020 for Rs 15000
Crores How much of this Fund is actually released or spent on COVID-19 in past
five months since April 20207 How much of this Rs15000 crore is released to the
States and particularly to my State of Maharashtra As per the data Rs 7500 crore
has been allocated for emergency COVID-19 response Rs 4150 crore has been
allocated for strengthening the national and State health system to support prevent
and preparedness Rs 1400 crore has been allocated for strengthening pandemic
research and multi-sector national institutions and platforms for one health Rs 1050
crore has been allocated for community engagement and risk communication and
Rs 900 crore has been allocated for implementation management capacity
building monitoring and evaluation
The Central Government has announced Rs 20 lakh crore package to combat
the impact of COVID-19 in the country How much of this Rs20 lakh crore was
actually infused into the economy since March 20207 How much of this Rs20 lakh
crore was given to my State of Maharashtra
The Centre was insensitive to the needs of an average citizen After the
lockdown was imposed there was a total absence of any supporting action to ramp
up testing expand the medical sector to help the millions of stranded poor workers
and to assist supply chain break In an Unstarred Question on Migrant Workers
(QNo174 on 14092020) the Centre answered that since it maintained no data on
migrant workers deaths during pandemic no compensation will be paid to the
victimrsquos family
There are multiple confusing rules and regulations issued by Central
Government during lockdown The Economist Magazine (June 13) estimated that
India issued well over 4000 different rules during the first two months of the
lockdown many of those rules being corrections of many of those rules A large
number of bureaucratic orders spelling rules and guidelines on a daily basis have
also created chaos among many stakeholders including businesses and the general
public According to PRS Legislative Research there have been 4130 executive
orders from states and the Centre

SHRI SAPTAGIRI SANKAR ULAKA (KORAPUT) Hon Chairman Sir thank
you for the providing opportunity to speak on the COVID-19 pandemic in the
country As the COVID-19 pandemic situation is going out of control day by day
the cases are increasing rapidly in tribal-dominated undivided Koraput district
Though Covid hospitals have been set up in every district most of these
hospitals are not equipped to treat serious or co-morbid patients We have 10
ICU with ventilators in Jeypore and JK Pur Covid hospitals but these ventilators
are mostly non-functional We donrsquot have Specialists oxygen supply
anesthesiologists etc to make these ventilators and subsequently hospitals
functional After following with the State Government multiple times finally
SLNMCampH has been declared as Covid hospital I would request the Central
Government to set up at least 50 ICU BED Covid hospital in Koraput and
specialists deployed from outside to make these beds functional I would also
request that Covid hospitals be provided with sufficient advanced treatment to
the Covid patients and constitute a team of doctors including Professors from
Medical Colleges to treat the patients
Another key issue is referrals Patients have to travel 400-500 km to
Bhubaneswar by road which is very risky for serious patients Hence I would
urge the Government to establish Air Ambulance leveraging the airstrip at
Jeypore so that serious patients can be transferred to Bhubaneswar without
risking their lives
There was a draconian notification by Odisha State Government which
discouraged patients from outside the State capital being referred to
Bhubaneswar Capacity has been built in Bhubaneswar Cuttack to cater to
treatments of patients from across the State This notification prevents patients
specially from tribal-dominated undivided Koraput district to avail treatment from
specialised hospitals in Bhubaneswar Cuttack There should be clear cut
directions from the Central Government to immediately stay such inhumane
notifications

COVID-19 outbreak and lockdown have impacted tribals and forest
dwellers greatly Now the virus has spread to rural areas especially Scheduled
Areas inhabited by tribals Lack of information and awareness among the tribals
and forest dwellers on the pandemic and required protective measures is a
major issue in tribal areas Tribal settlements are remotely located making it
particularly difficult for information to reach these areas The reverse migration
from cities and urban areas also raises concerns about the spreading of virus in
tribal areas
Poor access of tribal and forest dwellers to PDS is reported from across
the States Provisions under the PDS are not adequately provided or are
provided only to cardholders Ensuring good and nutritious security during the
lockdown in tribalOTFD areas needs to be the highest priority At this time PDS
should be provided to all needy families and migrant workers including those
who donrsquot have any identity cards on humanitarian grounds Insistence on
Aadhar card must be suspended during this period Provision of ration
vegetables cooking oil and other essentials should be made available at the
doorstep
The lockdown has affected collection use and sale of minor forest
produces (MFP) or Non-timber Forest Produce (NTFP) by tribals and forest
dwellers An estimated 100 million forest dwellers depend on MFP for food
shelter medicines and cash income The NFP collection season from April to
June provides major income support to tribals and unfortunately it coincided
exactly with the lockdown The MSP a major economic safety net has failed to
deliver due to lack of implementation in most of the States and slashing of
minimum support prices of many NTFPs by the Central Government
The Ministry of Tribal Affairs (MoTA) has written a letter to States
announcing revisions of MSP for 49 MFPs However what is most critical is the
institutional support that does not exist for collection and procurement of MFPs
with immediate payment Proposal for providing support through Van Dhan
Vikas Kendras (VDVKs) and most of VDVKs are non-functional The Particularly
Vulnerable Tribal Groups (PVTGs) are even more vulnerable a special relief
package for PVTGs comprising adequate grains pulses vegetables oil cash
grant soap and medicines should be provided The migration and seasons
access of pastoralists have been restricted due to the lockdown Also pastoral
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 399
communities have been affected as the milk economy faces severe crisis as
procurement and sale has been affected during the lockdown Diversion of forest
land without the consent of Gram Sabha in violation of the FRA continues even
during the lockdown Even as COVID-19 spreads and livelihoods are affected
due to lockdown there are reports of compensatory afforestation (CA)
plantations being carried out on forest land used by tribals and other traditional
forest dwellers including by fencing o such areas accessed for community rights
I would suggest to set up COVID Response Cell in MoTA ensuring appropriate
guidelines and instructions raising awareness and ensuring healthcare
ensuring food security strengthening NTFP-based livelihoods ensuing support
to PVTGs and pastoral communities support communities living in protected
areas prevent forest diversion and ensuring effective implementation of forest
rights
Thank you Sir

SHRIMATI APARUPA PODDAR (ARAMBAGH) COVID-19 a biomedical
disease has serious physical and tremendous mental health implications as it
is a rapidly spreading pandemic Asian countries like India are currently facing
issue of exponential growth in spread of transmission of COVID-19 in slum areas
of urban cities like Dharavi in Mumbai and the under privileged localities of metro
cities like Delhi
During lockdown period in India migrant workers had faced problems
nation-wide due to sudden ban on travel loss of income food shortage and
uncertainty about future More than 300 migrant workers died due to lockdown
with reasons varying from starvation suicide road and rail accidents lack of
medical care etc Due to COVID-19 pandemic migrant workers faced multiple
hardships They should be provided special assistance by the Central
Government as their families are facing problems to live their lives
According to the psycho-social issues among migrant workers they are
suffering from high degree of anxieties and fears There is no medical help from
the Central Government side for the poor People are jobless More effective
steps should be taken by the Government to prevent spread of COVID-19 Hand
sanitizers and masks should also be provided to people in public places and
healthcare should be given free of cost to the common public
This is the time to fight COVID-19 together Further vaccine for COVID-
19 should be given free of cost to the common man by the Central Government
In this COVID-19 times I would urge the Central Government to give special
financial package to Bengal and clear the pending amount which West Bengal
did not get from the Central Government Our Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee
is facing acute fund crisis Still she is fighting for the people of West Bengal in
this COVID-19 situation
Lastly I thank all the doctors nurses and health workers who are really
doing a good job Thank you

SHRI ANNASAHEB SHANKAR JOLLE (CHIKKODI) Honrsquoble Speaker sir
thank you for allowing me to participate in the discussion under Rule 193
regarding COVID-19 pandemic in the country As we all are aware that the
global spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19) followed by lockdowns has
affected global economies including India Government is taking several steps
to ensure that we are well prepared to face the challenges and threats posed by
COVID-19
India recorded the first case of the disease on January 30 2020 Since
then the cases have increased steadily As on today total 5400620 persons
are infected The number of deaths is 86752 Of the total infected persons in
the country 4303044 patients were recovered Globally over 306 million have
been infected of which nearly 21 million have recovered so far At least
955841 people have lost their lives to the virus so far in the world
In order to protect the people and save the life of COVID-19 affected
people both Government hospitals and private healthcare centres in the
country particularly in Karnataka have done great services The doctors nurses
and all the staff including assistants worked on war footing day in and day out
They put their lives at stake to rescue the affected people from the Coronavirus
they are the real warriors It is because of their sacrifice and sincere efforts India
has overtaken the US to become No1 in terms of Coronavirus recoveries As
per the data the recovery rate is 19 per cent of the total global recoveries It is
a significant achievement of the country I congratulate all the Corona warriors
for their great service for the nation The Union Government had also announced
insurance for Corona Warriors providing treatment free of cost if these warriors
get infected by COVlD-19 and in case of death Rs 30 lakh compensation is
given to the kin
The Union government has taken immediate step to issue a clarification
to use of CSR funds to tackle the COVID-19 pandemic The companies were
allowed to take up projects related to promotion of health care including
preventive healthcare sanitation and disaster management

Further Companies (CSR Policy) Rules 2014 were amended to enable
companies to undertake CSR activities in their normal course of business for
undertaking research and development of new vaccine drugs and medical
devices related to COVID-19 for three financial years in collaboration with any

Apart from this the Government of Karnataka has already converted
Victoria Hospital with 1700 ICU beds in Bengaluru into COVID-19 hospital
Private laboratories are already working with the Government Further the
Government want to convert Indira Canteens in Bengaluru as fever clinics to
house needy patients
The Government of India has taken various steps for digital push in
healthcare in the form of eSanjeevani and eSanjeevaniOPD The eSanjeevani
platform has enabled two types of telemedicine services viz Doctor-to-Doctor
(eSanjeevani) and Patient-to-Doctor (eSanjeevani OPD) Tele-consultations
Under the Aatmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyan package several measures were
taken to rescue the overall sections of the people affected by the lockdown
imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic The package aimed at addressing lives
and livelihood issues such as in-kind support like food and cooking gas cash
transfers insurance coverage to healthcare workers wage increase for
MGNREGA workers collateral free loans in support of MSMEs and tax relief
measures to enhance the productive capacity of the economy
Under Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan package around 42 crore poor

DR RAJDEEP ROY (SILCHAR) Sir Assam is one of the eight North-East
States of India and often called the Gateway to the North-Eastern Region With
a population of 312 million (as per 2011 Census) spread over 33 administrative
districts Assam has vast geographical area of 78438 square kilometres and
shares international borders with Bhutan and Bangladesh In 2011
the literacy rate of Assam was 7318 per cent (males - 7881 per cent females
- 6727 per cent) The River Brahmaputra (identity for the State) traverses
through various districts of state and finally joins Bay of Bengal The core public
health service in Assam is delivered through an institutional structure that
includes seven functional Medical Colleges twenty-five District Hospitals
fourteen Sub-Divisional Hospitals 177 Community Health Centres 946 Primary
Health Centres 54 Urban Primary Health Centres 4643 Sub-Health Centres
(RHS 2018-19)
The Government of Assam has been successfully managing the COVID-
19 pandemic by adopting multi-pronged comprehensive health systems
strengthening strategies with 3-Ts ndash Testing Tracing and Treatment fully in
tune with the Government of India directives for COVID-19 management
complemented by different state specific safety net initiatives These include
need-based policies professionalism of medical and para-medical fraternity
readiness of health facilities by bridging gaps ensuring availability of logistics
strong support from community and frontline workers engagement of private
hospitals for managing non-COVID cases technical assistance from different
Development Partners support of other Allied State Departments etc
The strong political and administrative commitment shown by Sh
Sarbananda Sonowal hon Chief Minister Dr Himanta Biswa Sarma hon
Minister Health and Family Welfare Government of Assam and Sh Piyush
Hazarika Minister of State Health and Family Welfare a strong team of Senior
Bureaucrats and Health Department Officials Allied Department Staff and
Frontline Warriors have ensured that all strategies and plans as framed are
translated into efficiently implemented interventions Technical support from
different Development Partners such as World Health Organization (Regional
Office) UNICEF Jhpiego Piramal Swasthya and SAATHI have been found very

useful in designing need-based planning to fight back COVID-19 pandemic
unitedly In addition plan execution partners like HLLPPT APOLLO GVK-
EMRI C-NES Krsnaa Laboratories Spandan TBS etc have also extended
their wholesome support All these comprehensive plans set the ground for
rigorous Testing Tracing Isolating and Treating
The State was able to limit the spread of the pandemic initially with only
100 cases till 17th May 2020 since the reporting of first COVID positive case on
31032020 Thereafter cases started increasing with the relaxation of lockdown
and the return of many Assamrsquos residents back to Assam majority of them came
from other COVID-19 hotspot States To tackle the situation Assam adopted
multi-pronged approaches with a policy which can be termed as ldquoAssam Caresrdquo
under which the principle of very strict quarantine measure ldquoStrict quarantine
with a humane heartrdquo has been followed Different approaches adopted have
been proved successful in managing COVID-19 pandemic
As on 19092020 Assam had 155453 confirmed cases and 125540
recovered cases of COVID with a recovery rate of 8075 per cent (national 763
per cent) and case fatality rate of 028 per cent (national 184 per cent) (Table
1) Assamrsquos weekly average of COVID testing in a day (period from 21-08-2020
to 27-08-2020 as in table 2) is 30322 and the weekly average of confirmed
cases in a day is 1822 with an average positivity rate just about six per cent
The doubling time for the state is 218 days
It is heartening to mention that as on 26th August the tests per million
population (TPM) in Assam are 60404 which is more than double of the national
TPM of 26685 and one of the best in the country with the mortality rate of 028
per cent as one of the lowest in the country
Assam adopted an approach of 3Ts - Testing Tracing and Treatment for
management of COVID-19 pandemic in the State This is in line with the national
testing strategy aggressively tracking comprehensively and treating efficiently
However the Statersquos approach is much more comprehensive and inclusive in
nature with a view to bend the curve of COVID The broad specific actions which
are taken are stated below
1 Ensuring Sufficient availability of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) The
State ensured sufficient availability of PPEs (triple-layer mask N-95 and
PPE) to ensure that all COVID warriors feel confident to work in COVID
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 408
management The initial stock procurement made in March-April 2020
helped us to tide over the period of absolute scarcity without significant
difficulties
2 Gap filling of health facilities Gaps in health facilities mainly Medical
Colleges and District Hospitals were assessed on a war footing scale gaps
were bridged and facilities were made ready to manage COVID patients
The state has currently 25750 isolation beds and 58949 quarantine beds
3 Safety and security of COVID warriors The Health Department of Assam
ensures that after every seven days of duty each health care provider is
quarantined for seven days at quarantine centers and the cost is being borne
by the state Each health care staff is tested before and after quarantine The
success of this is reflected in the low mortality of heath care workers from
COVID in the state Though approximately 1900 plus health care workers
have been infected so far only six deaths have been reported among the
health workers in Assam of which only three were associated with COVID-19
duties
4 Training of staff associated in clinical management of COVID State on

messages To ramp up testing state started ldquoAssam Community Surveillance
Program (ACSP)rdquo from 07th May 2020 in around 28000 villageswards of the
State to look for SARI (Severe Acute Respiratory Infections) ILI (Influenza
like Illness) fever dengue malaria diarrhea cases and to carry out
appropriate testing (as per the signs and symptoms) Based on the
encouraging feedback of 1st round of ACSP state is carrying out 2nd round of
ACSP with the name Assam Targeted Surveillance Plan (ATSP) -
NISCHAYATA (ACSP-Phase II) Under NISCHAYATA aggressive testing is
carried out at potential hotspots like market places interstate truck terminals
and parking lots random testing of vulnerable people of Health department
Police Transportation workers and Hotels staff etc This aggressive testing
approach ldquoCHASE THE VIRUSrdquo helped in identifying many COVID patients
and starting their timely treatment
7 Psychological support to patients Understanding the psychological impacts
of COVID-19 on the individual and the society an active intervention named
ldquoMononrdquo meaning lsquodeliberate thinkingrsquo was initiated involving Psychiatry
department Gauhati Medical College and LGB Regional Institute of Mental
Health Tezpur and a set of trained and committed volunteers to provide free
of cost psychiatric counselling and treatment to the COVID affected persons
as well as those who were quarantined As on date more than 32000
patients have been contacted over phone to provide psychiatric assistance
In addition free of cost online yoga training for patients in hospitals and Covid
Care Centres is also given
8 Universal screening and testing Assam took a policy decision to quarantine
everyone entering state (by air train and road) followed by testing and based
on the test report home quarantine is given to them whose test report comes
negative and positive cases are taken to hospital for treatment This
approach of ldquoChase the Virusrdquo was very useful in identifying many cases Till
May 2020 Assam could test only 12 Lac but with the ramping up of testing
facilities and testing state could test 207 Lac till 26th August 2020 From one
laboratory in February 2020 now state has 17 ICMR approved laboratories
Tests per million for Assam are 60404 and the positivity rate is 738 per cent
as on 19092020 Of the tests being done about 60 per cent are through
RT-PCR while about 40 per cent are using the point of care rapid antigen
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 410
tests Given the low sensitivity of antigen tests all symptomatic cases found
negative in the antigen test are re-tested using RT-PCR and necessary
actions are taken based on the test report To give the facility of getting tested
to people at Guwahati City 105 COVID Screening and Counselling Centres
(CCC) have been set up spread over in all the 31 wards of Guwahati Similar
facilities have been arranged in all other districts as well to facilitate public
testing free of cost These facilities provide testing and also counselling to
COVID confirmed cases
9 Setting up of Additional COVID Care Centres (CCC) Assam started setting
up of additional COVID Care Centers (CCC) at different places in the state
because of the increasing COVID positive cases Under this existing
colleges and convention centers where available were converted to COVID
Care Centers to cater to increasing COVID positive cases In addition
temporary structure like German Hangers with facilities like individual cabins
and toilets were prepared in war footing to admit and keep mild cases who
could not practice isolation at home
10 Increasing Oxygen production storage and delivery capacity As continuous
supply of medical oxygen is one of the critical elements for treatment of
COVID-19 the State Government is actively undertaking necessary steps to
arrange for sufficient numbers of oxygen cylinders of various capacities to
transport medical oxygen Cryogenic tanks for keeping liquid oxygen are
being established in GMCH and other medical colleges Oxygen generation
plants and oxygen concentrators are also being installed as per need
Infrastructure to provide oxygen through medical gas pipelines in hitherto
unavailable areas within the hospitals is also being undertaken earnestly
11 Scientific and evidence-based management of COVID-19 patients As the
COVID situation evolved the treatment protocols also evolved in the last few
months against COVID From the initial consideration of azithromycin and
hydroxyl chloroquine treatment protocol of COVID has swiftly moved
towards low molecular weight heparin steroids Inj Remdesivir monoclonal
antibodies like Tocilizumab and Itoluzumab convalescent plasma etc and
the state has progressively and timely adopted all the modern treatment for
COVID-19 patient management Many COVID patients could be brought
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 411
back from ICU and ventilators because of timely actions taken by the expert
health providers
12 Convalescent Plasma Therapy Assam is one of the first states in India to
bring in state of art Convalescent Plasma Bank with necessary facilities at
five Medical Colleges State has started motivating eligible cured COVID
patients to donate plasma and to transfuse plasma to the needy at Medical
Colleges of Assam Till 19092020 almost 1000 people have received
plasma therapy
13 Participation of Private Health Facilities In early phase State took support
from private health facilities in Guwahati Dibrugarh and Cachar (districts with
Medical Colleges) to manage all non-COVID cases while making the medical
colleges functional as fullypartly dedicated COVID hospitals Further with
the evolution of COVID-19 private hospitals are regularly supervised and kept
in loop so as to ensure that standard treatment protocols are followed across
the state irrespective of the status of the hospitals In addition free testing
facilities are being extended to private hospitals also so that the citizens
visiting these hospitals are not charged for testing COVID-19
14 Field level COVID Warriors Health care providers including managerial and
support staff have been working selflessly towards surveillance screening
sample collection supply of logistics transportation of samples to the
laboratories and information sharing with the higher authorities Continuous
training and monitoring through district officials and Zonal Medical College
faculties has helped in maintaining the high standards set by the Government
in dealing with COVID-19 patients
15 Facilitation of Home Isolation State started a unique scheme of supplying
necessary medicines and pulse oximeters to COVID positive patients who
are asymptomatic or mildly infected and prefer to remain in home isolation
These patients are supported by telemedicine and video-consultations
through e-sanjeevani with a tag name- SAMPARK Over a period time it is
expected that most of the mild and asymptomatic cases will prefer to have
home isolation However absolute awareness about the danger signs and
proper knowledge about immediate steps to be taken from the patient side
are very critical Hence efforts are being made to create awareness among
public for early testing and treatment
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 412
16 COVID Sero Survey ICMR on request from the State is conducting the sero
survey to detect antibodies to COVID in the population to assess prevalence
of the SARS-CoV-2 virus in three districts of Assam and the survey report is
likely to be shared with State by early September 2020 Depending on the
feedback the State is also planning to conduct sero survey for Antibody
through ELISA-based tests in large scale as per the requirements for future
planning
As explained above the Government of Assam is undertaking a large
gamut of activities in order to keep the citizens safe and healthy Obviously the
Government of India policy is strictly followed with Statersquos own innovative plans
and implementation of the same All these activities definitely have huge cost
impact and the Statersquos own fund is not enough to meet all the expenses at the
same time Even with the Government of Indiarsquos assistance the expenditure
already made for COVID-19 management with the pending liabilities and future
needs for this financial year alone is a huge burden on the State Government

SHRI UNMESH BHAIYYASAHEB PATIL (JALGAON) Thank you Sir for giving
me an opportunity to take part in this discussion under Rule 193 on a matter of
immense importance which not only concerns our country but also the whole
world which has seen 31 million cases across the world
I would like to thank our Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji under
whose leadership India has led from the front in our fight against this pandemic
and Dr Harsh Vardhan ji who has been working day and night to manage the
situation in an effective manner
The world and several institutions including the WHO are now looking up
to India to lead the fight and the Indian model as an example to emulate Apart
from handling the health pandemic India has also deftly dealt with the economic
situation arising as a result notable among them are the measures taken for the
vulnerable sections of the society who are the worst hit and are expectedly
facing hardships
India would now be playing a more prominent role at the World Health
Organisation WHO with Union Health Minister Dr Harsh Vardhan set to take
charge as Chairman of the WHO Executive Board at its 147th session
Indiarsquos response to COVID-19 has been ldquopre-emptive pro-active and
graded The Government had already put in place a lsquocomprehensive response
systemrdquo at the borders of the country much before the World Health
Organisation declared the coronavirus as a public health emergency of
international concern on January 30 Such a response ensured that there was
no panic among the citizens and avoided inconvenience to the extent possible
The Indian Government has also evacuated its citizens and those of its
neighbours from high-risk countries including China Japan Iran and Italy The
Government started screening of incoming air passengers followed by
suspension of visas and a ban on international flights were done much ahead of
any other country Italy and Spain started screening travellers 25 days and 39
days respectively after the first reported cases
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 416
Equally noteworthy are the various public awareness campaigns Prime
Minister Shri Modi has shown leadership in mobilizing the Heads of Governments of
the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) and that of the G-20
to share reliable information best practices and support each other in fighting this
pandemic
I will conclude with some suggestions to further bolster our fight against
corona
My first suggestion is the scope of Ayushman Bharat Indiarsquos flagship
insuranceassurance scheme launched with the vision of universal healthcare and
leaving no one behind should be expanded to include the 40 per cent lsquomissing
middlersquo who are neither covered by private insurance nor by the Government so that
any COVID-19 related expenses are covered by the Government
My second suggestion is this Businesses have a responsibility towards their
employees Those employees who are not on any permanent contract often become
the first casualty of cost cutting measures and are the most vulnerable It will be
critical for businesses to ensure all such employees continue to get paid and that
companies can partner with the Government to ensure their health coverage
My third suggestion is this The Constitution of India distributes the legislative
powers between the Centre and the States under the Seventh Schedule Services
related to public health sanitation hospitals and dispensaries are categorised under
Entry 6 of List II and is the responsibility of the States The rationale to entrust the
responsibility of public health and sanitation to the States is because the health
requirements vary from one State to another
But when it comes to making effective response strategy for tackling
pandemics that affect the health of the population around the country it becomes
imperative for the Union to spearhead the nationwide planning in consort with the
State Governments
In fact given their inherent challenges it becomes implicit for the States to
look up to the Union Government for a direct intervention to mobilise their medical
resources and devise efficient strategies for routing the resources where it is most
needed
With these suggestions I conclude my speech

SHRI NABA KUMAR SARANIA (KOKRAJHAR) Hon Speaker Sir I am
thankful to you for allowing me to speak on the COVID-19 discussion under
Rule 193
In my State three Governments are functioning namely the Central
Government State Government and BTC When the lockdown was declared
the BTC Assembly elections were going on Later on 27th April 2020 the
Governor Rule was imposed in the BTC Till today Model Code of Conduct is
imposed there
Sir yesterday I came to know that Assam Government had written to the
Election Commission of Assam to postpone the BTC elections But I think it is
not the right solution The people of the BTC have suffered so much during the
lockdown and Model Code of Conduct The BTC election procedure up to
symbol distribution has been completed Only six to seven days are left for
competing the BTC Assembly Elections I think it is possible by maintaining all
the COVID-19 protocols before 27th October 2020
So I would request the Central Government to please advise the State
Government to strictly maintain the COVID-19 guidelines in the BTC area
because in their campaigning so many parties have organised mass gatherings
and even some responsible State Ministers have participated there by violating
the social distancing norms Some were even not wearing masks
So these norms should be followed strictly I will extend all the possible
support to the State Government and the Central Government in this regard
Thank you

SHRI JAGDAMBIKA PAL (DOMARIYAGANJ) Respected hon Speaker Sir I
rise to lay on the table of the House the facts on the discussion under rule 193
on COVID-19 Pandemic in the country
Sir the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare acknowledged the
emergence of a new coronavirus (COVID-19) that was spreading across China
The first Indian case of COVID 19 was reported on 30th January 2020 The
Ministry of Home Affairs announced a 21-day lockdown to contain the spread of
COVID-19 from March 25 2020 to April 14 2020 As the spread increased and
more information about the virus was uncovered the Central Government
announced several policy decisions to contain it
Further measures were also announced to support citizens and
businesses who were affected by such containment measures India started
point of entry screening of passengers at ports airports and land border
crossings Under Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Yojana to provide relief against
COVID-19 the Finance Minister announced a relief package of 17 lakh crore
rupees for the poor An Insurance cover of Rs50 lakh was provided to health
workers (such as doctors nurses paramedics and ASHA workers) who are
treating patients of COVID-19 About 80 crore poor people got five kilograms of
wheat or rice and one kilogram of preferred pulses were also provided for free
every month Women account holders under the Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan
Yojana got Rs500 per month and also free gas cylinders were distributed to the
needy people
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has constituted an Advisory Committee
to review the Ways and Means Advances (WMA) limits for States and UTS
WMA limits refer to temporary loans given by the RBI to State Governments
Until the Committee submits its final recommendations the WMA limit has been
increased by 30 from the existing limit for all States and UTs The revised
limits will be in force between April 1 and September 30 2020
Sir todays our Government has reached the level of more than 12 lakh
COVID tests per day This strongly demonstrates an exponential increase
COVID-19 testing infrastructure in the country
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 419
The countrys testing capacities have multiplied manifold From
conducting merely 10000 tests per day on 8th April the daily average has
crossed 12 lakhs today In addition for treatment of those affected by COVID
the Government is implementing Ayushman Bharat-Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya
Yojana under which 601 coaches have been converted into Covid Care Centres
by Indian Railways
Sir in all 4621 Shramik Special trains have been operated between 1st
May 2020 to 31st August 2020 carrying 6319 lakhs stranded passengers to
their home states From Zero manufactures to 1100 indigenous manufacturing
of PPE kits shows the Central Government achievement in tackling the problem
of COVIDndash19 An amount of Rs11092 crore has been provided under State
Disaster Risk Management Fund to all States to tackle COVID-19
Sir I would like to request that 90 oxygen cylinders may be used for
COVID patient and the rest 10 may be used for other chronic diseases The
steps taken by our Government to tackle the problem of COVID-19 pandemic is
very praiseworthy I am therefore fully satisfied and also appreciate the major
allocation of funds to the States as well as to the poor people to overcome the
problem of COVID Pandemic

SHRI P P CHAUDHARY (PALI) Iniarsquos response to COVID-19 has been pre-
emptive pro-active and graded The country has already put in place a
comprehensive response system at its borders much before the WHO declared
it as a public health emergency of international concern which is January
302020
Many of my friends are criticizing the announcement of lockdown I would
like to call their bluff and remind them if the lockdown was not announced in a
sudden manner it would have created a havoc People distressed lining for
tickets price rise of essential commodities and travel plans the crowded
movement of masses would have spread COVID-19 from the urban to far flung
distant corners of the country
Under such extraordinary circumstances where we knew not what was
the propensity of the threat from disease which originated in China where even
the WHO was misled a good leadership leads with confidence works for the
betterment of situation and arrange for facilities needed PM Shri Modi was able
to announce the lockdown at such short notice because he had made
arrangements prior to announcement different from the Congress era when
announcements were done with distant dreams of materialization in future which
never happened
Coming to PM Garib Kalyan Yojana on March 26 when the Government
announced a relief package of Rs17 lakh crore under the Pradhan Mantri Garib
Kalyan Yojana for the poor the Opposition was doing politics and bickering on
social media tapping from the comforts of their air-conditioned homes and
offices
In pursuance of the pro-poor announcement made under the Pradhan
Mantri Garib Kalyan package as part of the economic response to COVID-19
the Government of India had launched the scheme for additional allocation of
foodgrains from the Central pool at the rate of five kilogram per person per month
free of cost for all the beneficiaries covered under the Targeted Public
Distribution System (TPDS) (AAY amp PHH) including those covered under the
DBT for a period of three months that is April-June 2020
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 421
Accordingly about 121 LMT of foodgrain was allotted to approximately
8096 crore beneficiaries entailing a subsidy outgo of nearly Rs46061 crore
Necessary orders were issued on 30032020
The scheme was further extended as part of economic response to
COVID-19 for another five months from July to November 2020 for distribution
to all the beneficiary households under the National Food Security Act 2013
(NFSA) at the rate of five kilogram per person per month free of cost for all the
beneficiaries covered under the Targeted Public Distribution System
(TPDS)National Food Security Act (NFSA) Accordingly about 201 LMT of
foodgrains have been allotted to approximately 8043 crore beneficiaries
entailing subsidy outgo of nearly Rs7606212 crore Till June 30 2020
Rs18000 crore has been transferred to the bank accounts of more than nine
crore farmers and Rs50000 crore is being spent on PM Garib Kalyan Rojgar
Abhiyaan which has been started to provide employment opportunities
Coming to Aatma Nirbhar Bharat we never took refuge behind COVID-19
pandemic to shy from our responsibilities but we saw this as an opportunity to
develop India and launched the Aatma Nirbhar Bharat Scheme Hon Prime
Minister Shri Narendra Modi on May 12 2020 announced the special economic
and comprehensive package of Rs20 lakh crore which is equivalent to 10 per
cent of Indiarsquos GDP to fight the COVID-19 pandemic in India Indiarsquos self-
reliance is ingrained in the happiness cooperation and peace of the world with
the sacrosanct belief that this is the culture which believes in the welfare of the
world for all the living creatures and the one which considers the whole world
as a family Its premise is ldquoिाता भकि पतरो अहि पकथवयrsquo -the culture that considers
the earth to be the mother And when the Bharat Bhumi becomes self-sufficient
it ensures the possibility of a prosperous world Indiarsquos progress has always
been integral to the progress of the world He gave a clarion call for Aatma
Nirbhar Bharat or Self-Reliant India Movement
To provide relief to the business additional working capital finance of 20
per cent of the outstanding credit as on 29th February 2020 in the form of a term
loan at a concessional rate of interest would be provided This would be available
to units with up to Rs25 crore outstanding and turnover of up to Rs100 crore
whose accounts are standard The units would not have to provide any
guarantee or collateral of their own The amount would be 100 per cent
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 422
guaranteed by the Government of India providing a total liquidity of Rs3 lakh
crore to more than 45 lakh MSMEs
After taking the Cabinet approval on 20052020 the Department of
Financial Services issued Operational Guidelines for the scheme on 23052020
and the Emergency Credit Line Guarantee Scheme (ECLGS) Fund was
registered on 26052020 In a short period of about one-and-a-half month
noticeable progress has been achieved in identifying units sanctioning as well
as disbursing of loans to MSMEs
New front-loaded special refinance facility of Rs30000 crore was
sanctioned by the National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development
(NABARD) during COVID-19 to RRBs and cooperative banks This special
facility is expected to benefit three crore farmers consisting of mostly small and
marginal farmers in meeting their credit needs for post-harvest and kharif sowing
requirements When kharif sowing was already on its full swing Rs2487687
crore out of Rs30000 crore was disbursed as on 672020 out of this special
facility
The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in reverse migration of urban
migrantspoor in the country The urban migrants stay in slumsinformal
settlementsunauthorised coloniesperi-urban areas to save cost on housing
They need decent rental housing at affordable rate at their work sites
In order to address this need the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs
has initiated Affordable Rental Housing Complexes (ARHCs) a sub-scheme
under the Pradhan Mantri AWAS Yojana-Urban (PMAY-U) This will provide
ease of living to urban migrantspoor in industrial sector as well as in non-formal
urban economy to get access to dignified affordable rental housing close to their
workplace
Hum Mante Hai Andhera Ghana Hai Magar Diya Jalana Kaha Mana Hai
Hum aise hi Bharat ke Vikas ke diye ki lo ko jalaye rakhenge

SHRI TEJASVI SURYA (BANGALORE SOUTH) Hon Speaker at the outset
I wish to thank the hon Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji for effectively
handling the COVID-19 pandemic
By taking speedy and seemingly harsh measures prioritising the health of
the citizens of the country PM Modi Ji has ensured that India has one of the
lowest COVID-19 deaths per million population An early lockdown called by the
PM potentially saved upto 70000 lives and more than 29 lakh cases While
India stayed indoors and obeyed the Prime Ministerrsquos call he constituted the
PMCARES Fund for supplying ventilators and improving the health infrastructure
of the country After India entered the unlock stage Prime Minister Modi
unveiled a slew of reforms in the form of the Atmanirbar Bharat Scheme to
mitigate the economic hardship faced by MSMEs street vendors migrant
labourers and practically every other citizen Similarly the PM Garib Kalyan Ann
Yojana ensured that no citizen would go hungry despite the country experiencing
the worst global pandemic in a century
My State Karnataka under the leadership of hon Chief Minister Shri BS
Yedurappa has also managed to control the pandemic effectively True to its
tag of being the Tech Capital of the country my city Bengaluru utilized
technology and implemented unique solutions to assist citizens during the
lockdown and beyond
Soon after the lockdown was announced we set up a Bengaluru South
MP Coronavirus Task Force with the help of more than 4000 dedicated
volunteers to attend to citizensrsquo emergency requirements The Task Force
volunteers are available 247 on the number 99464 99464 We formed area-
wise WhatsApp groups to assist senior citizens pregnant women migrant
workers and other distressed people during the lockdown period They
extended all non-COVID medical support in the form of assistance in procuring
medicines and groceries delivering food packets to the needy and also feeding
stray dogs They also provided free and compassionate psychological
counselling The Task Force also tied up with cab aggregator Ola to provide
free taxi rides to hospitals for non-COVID medical emergencies
------------------------

During the lockdown period the MP Coronavirus Task Force handled
5000 individual requests provided 2600 free Ola cab rides to hospitals served
450000 meals served to underprivileged sections and migrant workers and
handed out 35000 free ration kits for the migrants and needy
Bengaluru further proved its credentials of being the startup capital of the
country when we established the Home Line what is possibly Indiarsquos first
WhatsApp bot-enabled e-commerce platform
The Home Line was a phone number (080 61914960) accessible both by
call and WhatsApp set up for the home delivery of essentials from your nearest
grocer or medical store in Bengaluru We brought together 30 competing
startups from Bengaluru mapped every retailer in the city and unleashed about
10000 delivery executives to take essentials to the doorsteps of citizens Using
Cloud Calling system of Kaleyra call center employees of (24)7ai working for
the Home Line would note the order for groceries or medicines and generate a
ticket The ticket would be passed on to a delivery executive from Dunzo
Swiggy Rapido Shadowfax or House Joy The delivery executive would
proceed to purchase the items from the grocer or medical store located closest
to the caller and deliver the items
During the lockdown period the Home Line of Bengaluru received 17059
orders on WhatsApp and 2137 orders placed on phone It enabled the delivery
of 14049 orders and served 30000 people in Bengaluru
Bengaluru finally opened up during the Unlock phase and we noticed an
increase in the number of daily cars We once again came up with a technology
solution to handle the outbreak called COVID Raksha
COVID Raksha can be accessed by phone and WhatsApp by using the
same helpline number 080 6191 4960 Citizens can report COVID-19
symptoms enquire about test request for doctor assistance and expert advice
and seek guidance on turning positive and take initiative to reach out for urgent
care It also facilitates the shifting of patients in distress to hospitals across
Bengaluru
The Office of the MP partnered with Swasth Project Stepone Kaleyra
Fortis Hospitals (24)7ai ACT Grants Cartoon Mango SRL Diagnostics Hey
Doc Pharmeasy Portea Medical ITW Consulting and Spykke Technologies to
power the platform
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 427
Through COVID Raksha (as on 10th September) we have answered
10700 calls from citizens on the coronavirus infection and conducted 3465
sessions on WhatsApp We have completed 1698 triaging of symptoms on
Swasth and facilitated 582 hospital transfers The COVID Raksha so far has
handled 96 advanced emergency cases and provided life-saving care to citizens
in Bengaluru
With this hon Speaker I would like to thank citizens for enabling us to
serve them I also would like to thank the Prime Minister once again for showing
exemplary leadership during such times Together we will fight this pandemic

SHRI PC MOHAN (BANGALORE CENTRAL) Hon Speaker Sir thank you
for allowing me to participate in the discussion under Rule 193
regarding COVID-19 pandemic in the country
The latest data shows that 54 lakhs 620 cases confirmed cases and
around 86752 deaths and 4303044 patients have already been cured as
on today
Sir India is the second largest democracy in the world with the population
of more than 135 crore In such a big country to enforce a lockdown and prevent
people to stop their daily activities and business is not a matter of joke It is
known to all of us
Even then our Union Government under the leadership of Shri Narendra
Modi ji has taken very effective steps to impose the lockdown to protect people
As a Prime minister of the country he has taken a very bold step He did not
think twice about the ill effects of the economic situation caused by lockdown
He gave top priority to save the lives of people of the country He took the people
of the country into confidence by interacting with them frequently through the
National media and lsquoMann Ki Baatrsquo programmes I congratulate the hon Prime
Minister for his bold initiatives And I am thankful to the people of the country for
showing their respect and honor the words of the hon Prime Minister
ldquoIn a landmark global achievementrdquo India has overtaken the US to
become No1 in terms of coronavirus recoveries accounting for close to 19 per
cent of the total global recoveries It is because of the great sacrifice done by
the healthcare service providers
In order to protect the people and save the life of covid-19 affected people
both Government hospitals and private health care centers in the country
particularly in Karnataka have done great services The doctors nurses and all
the staff including assistances worked on war footing day in and day out They
put their lives at stake to rescue the affected people from the coronavirus They
are the real warriors I am thankful to all the corona warriors for their great
service for the nation
This is reflected in the Government Response Stringency Index measured by
Oxford University which says that India enforced one of the most stringent
lockdowns
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 429
Our BJP Government in the Center and also in the state of Karnataka have taken
several measure to manage situation risen out of the COVID-19 pandemic on a war
footing ldquoDedicated hospitals for the treatment of the
infected fever clinics and Covid care centres in Bengaluru and in all other
district headquarters of the State were set up apart from quarantine
facilities to identify and isolate the infected personsrdquo
Atmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyana
On May 12 Government announced Atmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyana
Package a special economic and comprehensive package of Rs 20 lakh
crore - equivalent to 10 per cent of Indiarsquos GDP - to combat the impact of
the COVID-19 pandemic in India Later on the lockdown was considerably eased in the
months of July August and September Now there is a gradual improvement in growth of
Manufacturing core industries E-way bills Kharif sowing power
consumption railway freight cargo traffic and passenger vehicle sales etc
Ayushman Bharat program
The Government has launched Ayushman Bharat program and Pradhan Mantri Jan
Arogya Yojana for the people Under this the Government provides health coverage of
Rs 5 lakh per family per annum to more than 10 crore poor and vulnerable families for
secondary and tertiary care
hospitalization Our BJP Government is making all the efforts sincerely to
augment the health infrastructure to combat COVID-19 pandemic in the
country
Allocation of Funds
As far as the budget allocation is concerned in the interim budget of 2019- 20
around 22 per cent has been allocated to the Department of Health amp Family Welfare
During the year 2015-16 Government health expenditure is 118 per cent of GDP The
allocation is constantly increasing during the BJP
Government for the last six years The National Health Policy 2017
envisages increasing public health expenditure to 25 per cent of GDP by
2025 Our BJP Government is making all the efforts to achieve this target
With the constant efforts and encouragement of the union Government a major
achievement made by Tata CRISPR in finding an advanced test for Covid-19 The Tata
CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats) test achieves the
highest accuracy levels than the traditional RT-PCR tests It takes quicker turnaround time
and less expensive equipment and better ease of use
With these words I conclude my speech Thank you Sir

SHRI RAM MOHAN NAIDU KINJARAPU (SRIKAKULAM) Thank you hon
Speaker Sir for giving me the opportunity to speak on the discussion on COVID-
19 pandemic in the country
First of all I would like to pay my tribute and pass on my condolences to
the families of all the doctors nurses health workers police and to all those
who have worked on a frontline and have lost their lives due to COVID-19
pandemic I would like to thank the hon Minister of External Affairs Dr
Subrahmanyam Jaishankar Ji who has helped in bringing back people who
were stranded outside India and I would also like to thank all the State
Governments who have helped in bringing migrants of Andhra Pradesh back to
their homes I would also like to thank all the MPs who have worked
tremendously in their constituencies during the crisis Right now they are
fulfilling their constitutional duties in the Parliament While we are discussing
this the COVID-19 cases have passed the 54-lakh mark with as many as 92605
new cases reported today The country has lost around 87000 lives in the
pandemic
My State Andhra Pradesh has seen a total of 8218 new cases today and
the total confirmed cases in the State is 617776 The Statersquos tally is the second
highest after Maharashtra My constituency Srikakulam has seen total of
30000 cases and 280 deaths till now
Hon Speaker Sir this discussion on COVID-19 should have been taken
up during the Budget Session when we were aware that our country would have
to face this pandemic Having a discussion at that time would have helped us
formulate our response to tackle the crisis more effectively
I would also like to commend the efforts of the Government of India and
its bold if not timely decision to implement the most comprehensive lockdown
anywhere in the world Being one of the most populated countries in the world
we needed it at that time to calibrate our responses to tackle the global crisis
and also to save our economy We also needed it to upgrade the health
infrastructure and increase the capacity of beds to meet the demand that might
arise due to this pandemic
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 438
Sir after six months of the lockdown when we are in the 4th stage of the
unlock process now the question then arises did we use the time on our hands
effectively and efficiently
If we look at the Annualised figures of GDP for April-June quarter then
the scenario becomes more dire
India -75 per cent
UK -599 per cent
Germany -33 per cent
USA -317 per cent
Japan -278 per cent
China -546 per cent
If we look at quarter-over-quarter GDP growth between April-June 2020
over January-March 2020
India -2928 per cent
UK -204 per cent
Germany -97 per cent
USA -909 per cent
Japan -78 per cent
China -115 per cent
During an interaction of the hon Prime Minister with the Leaders of the
Parliamentary Parties on 8th April 2020 I had suggested that in order to come
out of this lockdown and protect our economy a stimulus package to the tune
of at least 10 per cent of the GDP needs to be announced This was accepted
by the hon Finance Minister and she announced a package in the same line on
12th May 2020
Of Rs 20 lakh crore stimulus package announced nearly 50 per cent of
it is in the form of liquidity measures to help banks and NBFCs to increase
lending business to stimulate growth While demand was subdued due to
COVID-19 situation banks and NBFCs were also reluctant to lend due to
potential NPA concerns Therefore the stimulus package announced for various
MSMEs and small businesses was also not in the form of grants but in the form
of loans food supply for migrant labourers and some infrastructural support
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 439
The actual expenditure of the Government is negligible with most burden on the
RBI and institutions like NABARD etc
The Government has also planned to tap construction workers fund
mineral fund and compensatory fund etc The Government has just recycled its
schemes and allocations already counted for in the budgetary allocations As
part of the COVID-19 package of Rs 54 lakh crore package announced for
MSMEs the actual cost to the Government is estimated at Rs 25000 crore only
For this as I have suggested previously the Government should review
its capital and revenue expenditure plans and classify them under three heads
as critical essential and desirable The one which is being required and is
urgent is critical the one which is being required but not urgent is essential
and the one which is not being required and also not urgent is desirable The
Government should delay the expenditure that is not critical and divert that
amount towards the second stimulus package
We are all facing the same storm but we are not sailing in the same boat
While some sectors have prospered during these pandemic times others such
as construction travel restaurant MSMEs across all the verticals have
suffered the most
If you look at the employment report -- recently released by CMIE it states
that during the April-July period about 19 million salaried people lost their jobs
in India While salaried jobs are not easily lost but once lost they are also far
more difficult to retrieve
The package needs to be focussed on providing financial support to those
industries which see the largest loss in employment so that they have the funds
to rehire or save the jobs of their employees So the financial support and
stimulus package need to be directed to support the most vulnerable people and
businesses
While unemployment number is increasing the businesses are also
facing shortage of labour which is becoming the cause for a concern We need
to figure out a way to get the right people to the right place in order to kick start
the economic activity For this I suggest that the migrant labourers be provided
some incentives to get back to their work sites They should also be provided
some travel incentives increased healthcare facilities at labour camps to handle
COVID infections and mobile ration cards etc
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 440
During the lockdown period we have seen many gains in terms of
reduction in the levels of pollution better sanitation and hygiene and that needs
to be sustained
These measures would surely bring economy back on track in some time
However for the welfare of the people I would like to mention a few points
Under the Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Yojana insurance cover will be provided
to 2212 lakh health care providers including public healthcare providers and
private hospital staff The insurance provided will be above any other insurance
cover being availed by the beneficiary and does not require any additional
registration The premium for it will be borne by the Ministry of Health and Family
Welfare The insurance scheme was operationalised on March 30 and will be in
force till September 2020 which is extended for a further period of time of 180
days The claims of these workers should be processed quickly The police
officials who are doing their duties during these Corona times have no
insurance So the Government should introduce a similar kind of a scheme for
them as well
After the COVID-19 pandemic fishermen are in dire need of assistance
When the lockdown was announced many fishermen were in the high seas and
when they came back there were no traders and the supply chains were
crashed It resulted in the severe loss of income to the fishermen We are still in
the middle of the pandemic and the demand of fisheries is still low and therefore
they are struggling hard to meet their day to day needs As part of the
Atmanirbhar Bharat package Rs 20000 crore has been allocated to Pradhan
Mantri Matsya Sampada Yojana but it does not contain any provision for
financial assistance to the hard hit fishermen The fishermen are not even
included in PM-KISAN Scheme which they have demanded for so long I request
the Government to constitute a Fishermen Welfare Fund and sanction a special
grant to formulate schemes related to providing compensation during this tough
time Andhra Pradeshrsquos economy is significantly dependent on fisheries and
fishermen and even Andhra Pradesh has significantly contributed in the total fish
production in India
Srikakulam is also a major source of outmigration of fishermen and other
migrant workers and has recently witnessed all the migrants returning to home
especially from Veraval in Gujarat and also from Chennai The unemployment
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 441
among them has increased the job demand under MNREGA and it is the highest
ever after 2007 They need job and wages to meet their day-to-day needs very
badly The Gareeb Kalyan Rojgar Abhiyaan has been introduced to provide
livelihood to migrants who are back home in 116 districts in 6 States of India but
Srikakulam has not been included in spite of being a backward district In fact
not even one district of Andhra Pradesh has been included Andhra Pradesh has
seven backward districts out of total of 13 districts
The number of COVID-19 cases could go up in Srikakulam due to limited
availability of hospitals and COVID-care centres Therefore due to shortage of
beds patients with mild symptoms are sent back to their homes I request to
grant Rs 50 crore from PM CARES Fund to establish new COVID care centre
in the district
Under the Pradhan Mantri Street Vendorrsquos Atmanirbhar Nidhi Scheme
(PM SVANidhi Scheme) only the street vendors of urban local bodies are
included But in Srikakulam in the State of Andhra Pradesh many fish vendors
especially women work at the rural places as well If they can also be included
it would be better
With this I thank you for giving me this opportunity to speak

DR SUJAY VIKHE PATIL (AHMEDNAGAR) Thank you Sir for giving me a
chance to speak in this very important discussion on the outbreak of Corona
Pandemic in India Sir today as I stand to speak on this issue I would like to
begin with paying my tributes to the Corona warriors which include doctors
healthcare workers sanitation workers police staff and everyone who has
strengthened our fight against this virus
I would like to place on record my appreciation and gratitude to our Prime
Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji who has led from the front and with his decisive
leadership we have been able to successfully fight this battle I also thank Dr
Harshvardhan Ji for spearheading the efforts of the Ministry of Health and Family
Welfare
It is pertinent to note that we are currently facing a crisis which has
affected every single person and has brought not only the country but the whole
world to a standstill but our Government has been taking decisive steps at
regular intervals to ensure that every section of the society is benefited
Decisions like Atma Nirbhar Package of Rs20 lakh crore or PM Garib Kalyan
Yojana which has benefited more than 80 crore people are testaments to our
effective governance
Sir the Opposition has been regularly criticizing the decision of lockdown
instead of supporting the government in the fight against Corona It has been
estimated that this decision prevented approximately 14 lakh to 29 lakh cases
and 37000 to 78000 deaths
Further these four months were utilised to create additional health
infrastructure enhance human resource and produce within India critical
elements such as PPEs N-95 masks and ventilators A case in point is increase
in dedicated isolation beds around 363 times and dedicated ICU beds above
246 times to what existed in March 2020
Whereas there was no indigenous manufacturing of PPE with the
requisite standards at that point in time we are now self-sufficient and in a
position to even export the same

Sir I have few suggestions and recommendations
1 COVID-19 Fund
Under the National Health Mission the Government had in April 2020
announced significant investments to the tune of Rs15000 crores for India
COVID-19 Emergency Response and Health System Preparedness Package
The funds sanctioned will be utilized for immediate COVID-19 Emergency
Response (amount of Rs7774 crores) and rest for medium-term support (1-4
years) to be provided under mission mode approach
For my Ahmednagar Lok Sabha constituency a fund of about Rs 16 crore
has come under the National Health Mission There are two things regarding
that Firstly they have different provisions for purchase of equipment beds and
everything but as of now the situation is such that availability of beds are very
less even if we put an order regarding central oxygen system or facilities you
have advised along with no provision for a rental allowance For example if a
hospital is taken and the hospital has the entire facility of beds central oxygen
system and ventilators the District Collector or the District Administration does
not have funds to give for that hospital
2 Involvement of Member of Parliament
It has been more than 3 months since this package was announced and
even when its Centrally Sponsored it is my personal experience that the
concerned Member of Parliament is not taken into confidence regarding the
utilization of these funds The entire control has been vested with the Collector
who is already overburdened with several other obligations
I am a neurosurgeon and if representatives with specialized medical
knowledge are included while deciding the disbursement of funds under this
package it will ensure a holistic and better decision making process
3 RT - PCR Test
I really appreciate that we have increased the testing I would only make
a few suggestions as to what I have realized in this RT-PCR machine There are
two systems One is open and one is closed There has been increased cases
of variability in testing with negative showing as positive and positive showing
as negative due to the kits being used in an open-based system of PCR That
is very clear evidence that I found in my lab My recommendation would be that
in districts which do not have RT-PCR labs and private labs are available the
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 445
government should provide free kits on the lines of government hospitals to
ensure free investigation by private labs because we cannot bear the cost of the
kit but we are ready to bear the cost of the technicians the electricity etc So
private labs could be wilfully coming forward to do these tests for free
4 Problems being faced due to huge Indian population in fight against COVID-
19
The large Indian population does pose challenges in terms of health
service provision
However in the context of Covid-19 India has two socio-demographic
features that confer advantage First we have a demographically young
population which is better protected against severe illness than older
populations Second nearly two-thirds of India is rural The virus spreads more
slowly in rural areas than in urban areas due to less crowd density shorter
distances that most people commute to work and more open spaces It is
necessary however that we address the need of population stabilisation
through a broad range of strategies
5 Incentives for health workers dealing directly with Corona like doctors nurses
health workers like ASHA etc
There are two types of incentives (a) removal of the hurdles and
grievances that are impeding their work or endangering them (b) positive
incentives for boosting their morale and enhancing their performance
6 Need for self-sufficiency in API Production
From being reasonably self-reliant-both in drug formulation and API
production in the early 1990s India had become mostly import-dependent in
API Last year India imported roughly Rs50000 crore worth of APIs and other
intermediaries that go into production of finished formulations About Rs31740
crore worth of these were from China alone accounting for two-third of API
imports Of the top 20 imported APIs amounting to Rs3610 crore 68 per cent
were from China For production of several medicines import intensity from
China is alarmingly high
In case of streptomycin used in treating tuberculosis (TB) and other
infections nearly all imports are from China In case of penicillin another critical
antibiotic 90 per cent of imports are from China And 70 per cent of rifampicin
API (used for TB treatment) 63 per cent of erythromycin API (an antibiotic used
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 446
especially for respiratory infections) 82 per cent of glutamic acid and its salts
(treatment for nerve disorders) 80 per cent of aniline and its salts (for antioxidant
formulations) are imported from China
This Pandemic has brought an opportunity for India to regain its status as
a self-sufficient manufacturer of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients
7 Action against China at the International Level
China has not only created tension at the border but there are also strong
evidences to state that the COVID-19 virus is a lab made virus Chinese
virologist Dr Li-Meng Yan has claimed that coronavirus COVID-19 was made in
a Wuhan laboratory Dr Li-Meng Yan who was associated with Hong Kong
School of Public Health had been researching on the coronavirus for a long
time The Chinese virologist claimed that during her research she came across
that coronavirus was developed in laboratory in China
With these recommendations and suggestions I thank the government
and conclude my speech

SHRI NAMA NAGESWARA RAO (KHAMMAM) Hon Speaker Sir I thank you
for the time allotted to put across my views on the Bill
Whereas the Bill seems to be well intended some of the areas either not
so clear or missing
Policing in India is a State subject which means there are large variations
across the States This includes forensic science facilities as well
-----------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 454
In a large number of cases the results of forensic science aspects are to
be explained jointly with the observations relating to forensic medicine as in case
of poisoning firearm wounds suicides etc Hence it is important that studies in
Forensic medicines are also given due emphasis A burning case in point is the
case of alleged suicide by a Bollywood film actor being investigated and
discussed in media
Further the regional aspects are also to be given due consideration
Every region or State has its own issues and problems be it economic social
and cultural or such other factors or a combination of factors Therefore specific
studies are important and may be promoted even by the institutes of national
importance
There are other institutions of State and Centre that are also engaged in
similar works These institutions academic research centres laboratories and
other field units also need to be developed and integrated with these central and
State universities This will create synergy among them make the outcome
qualitative and more purposeful Such an arrangement will also make our effort
more efficient and avoid duplication as well as highlight areas of focus
It is suggested to create a knowledge-pool of the achievements of all such
institutions regional Central or belonging to States Such a sharing platform will
benefit all these organisations and keep them updated
To derive full benefit of the services of these institutions facilities for early
dissemination of knowledge is needed This will also benefit in identifying the
areas if studies to be given more focus or new areas to be studied
The State of Telangana has opened three regional Forensic Science
Laboratories This has not only made collection of evidence from the scene of
crimes faster but also saved evidences from destruction due to time gap
Further the early expert opinion has resulted in faster completion of
investigation of cases
Under the able and dynamic leadership of our CM of Telangana Shri KCR
garu the State police has brought various reforms in the Department for
providing better policing for the sake of people The State police are
implementing a number of Information Technology (IT) initiative that helped
police in detection and prevention of crimes in the State
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 455
Vacancies have been filled up and the police have come up with several
initiatives to engage with communities People are now bringing issues to the
notice of the police and throw up various facts social media etc and their
grievances are being addressed They are delivering round the clock revises for
crime prevention women safety and all other aspects There have been no
extremists and Maoist activities since the formation of the State
The State Government has made a provision for a sum of Rs 5852 crore
for police Department in the financial year 2020-21 Telangana received special
incentive funds of Rs 769 crore under modernisation scheme of the Centre due
to efficient implementation of police reforms in the State
These achievements show that modernisation of Police Force of the State
is important and the most important factor to strengthen the internal security
Hence the Centre should allocate more and more funds under this scheme and
continue the scheme as modernisation is an ongoing process Also the
allocation under the scheme be made on the basis of need of the State than the
population base so that the State police is able to achieve its modernisation
targets early and people are benefited
The most important aspect is how to take the benefits to the ground
Modalities may be developed to lay a mechanism for sharing of benefits by
stakeholders as early as possible Hon Police Commission reports that even
judicial guidelines could hardly be implemented due to various factors as stated
above Hence it is important that the State police is strengthened and
modernised
Our society is fast changing and so are the needs and aspirations of
people Rapid advancement of technology is making the changes even faster
Hence the needs modes and ways of policing are to be dynamic In this
background such academic institutions are to be dynamic in their approach with
respect to academics and research Only then they can meet the needs of the
society and keep pace with the change Hence keeping the management able
for change is of utmost importance Otherwise studies and efforts may become
irrelevant
Thank you

SHRI ABDUL KHALEQUE (BARPETA) Sir I have two observations to point out First the
passage of the Bill upgrades the existing Raksha University under the Government of
Gujarat which was established in 2009 and second it is only converting a State university
into a Central University
I do not see any reason why the Government is in a hurry to upgrade a State
university which is only a decade old whereas so many State institutions of higher
education across the country are demanding upgradation There are so many autonomous
and Central Government institutes of higher education One of the recent additions in 2018
was National Rail And Transportation Institute in Vadodara Why is the Government only
considering to establish premier institutions in Gujarat alone There are so many States
with lesser number of higher educational institutes We cannot put everything into one
basket There is a need to create a balance all over the country as far as education is
concerned Establishing such institutes also leads to development of that particular area
I can understand that Gujarat is the home State of Modi ji and Amit Shah ji but there are
other States too As one of the representatives of the people of North-East I hereby
demand the establishment of a campus of the university in Assam
I have no reason to hide the fact that the very name lsquoRashtriya Raksha Universityrsquo
is a bit deceiving The Rashtriya Raksha University is proposed to be a multi-disciplinary
university to create new knowledge through research and collaboration with different
stakeholders and help to fulfil the need for a pool of trained professionals with specialised
knowledge and new skill sets in various wings of policing criminal justice system and
correctional administration The university will have a linkage with world class universities
in other countries which will be on need basis for the purpose of exchange of contemporary
research academic collaboration course design technical knowhow training and skill
development

SHRI POCHA BRAHMANANDA REDDY (NANDYAL) Sir this Bill seeks to
provide for the establishment of the Rashtriya Raksha University and declares
the University to be an institution of national importance The Bill also repeals
the 2009 Act Our Party welcomes this initiative
There is an urgent need for institutions to provide police and security
services with the necessary academic knowledge professional skills and
community orientation At present there are only a few institutions in the
country which provide the environment infrastructure and specialisation for
imparting education in police sciences

शरी अधीर रजन चौधरी (बहरामपर) सर ि बोिना चाहता ह ा The Bill only covers close-
out netting The current Bill fails to provide other kinds of bilateral netting
practices for example netting by novation Netting by novation is a contractual
agreement whereby parties agree that all contracts between themselves will be
consolidated into a single contract as soon as each new contract is entered into
It reduces counterparty credit risk by affecting a discharge of each individual
foreign exchange contract or other obligation as it is netted If the Bill is intended
to truly widen the scope of the netting practice in India it could have included
methods such as netting by novation and payment netting
My second point is that there is potential for money-laundering and tax
avoidance Netting is allowed for transfer of money without actual transfer of
money Therefore netting becomes a potential bidding ground for trade-based
money-laundering and tax avoidance practices How will the Bill help in
regulating and offsetting this risk
Thirdly it is an overambitious move It is claimed by the Principal
Economic Adviser Shri Sanjeev Sanyal in an interview that this Bill will act as an
enabler to the corporate default swap market This in turn will help lay the
necessary condition to set up a liquid Indian corporate bond market CDS is not
a prerequisite for setting up a corporate bond market and there are major issues
with regard to regulation and supervision of both the CDS and bond market
which will not be mitigated by the introduction of this legislation What provision
has the Government made to address the regulatory issues arising due to the
legislation
My last point is about the impact on bank capital This Bill may not have a
significant impact on the capital of banks The ratio of market trade to the loan
book of public sector banks is not so high as to generate considerable capital-
saving from bilateral netting Thank you

DR UMESH G JADHAV (GULBARGA) Thank you Speaker Sir for giving
me this opportunity to speak in this august House on COVID-19 pandemic that
is facing the country
As we all know the first case of COVID-19 was found in Kerala on January
30 2020 and the first death due to COVID-19 was reported on March 11 2020
in Kalaburagi district of Karnataka which falls in my parliamentary constituency
It was marked as the countryrsquos first fatality from the global pandemic
The first ever COVID-19 case was recorded in China last year Since then
the virus has spread around the world and in January 2020 it was declared as
pandemic by the World Health Organisation
I would like to tell the House that a research had revealed that India may
record nearly 13 lakh COVID-19 positive cases by mid-May if the spread of virus
is not contained by taking stringent measures and implementing restrictions
India witnessed 101139 COVID-19 cases by 18th May 2020 Initially it was
considered that India was dealing well in containing the number of COVID-19
cases by maintaining social distance and thereby a constricted transmission of
the disease during lockdown period
I would like to say that both the Central Government and the State
Government of Karnataka are working intensely to keep the number of COVID-
19 positive cases minimum The Government is taking all necessary steps ndash by
involving public medical associations nurses NGOs police forces including
paramilitary forces - to combat the challenges and threat posed by this growing
invisible pandemic war The earnest efforts on the part of the frontline workers
especially the doctors nurses healthcare staff sanitation workers police
personnel volunteers with the active support of people of India have resulted in
making the treatment of the patients possible and thereby in controlling this
pandemic
In March we started with only few testing centres performing less than
100 tests per day On 18th September India has conducted over 1000000 tests
in a single day and is having as many as 1764 COVID-19 testing laboratories

The Union Government has announced a Rs20 lakh crore recovery
package to revive our economy A small component of this was allocated to the
Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act as well
I would like to mention that NREGA has offered opportunity to the migrant
workers who were forced to return to their homes jobless to earn their
livelihood In Kalaburagi district more than 55000 migrant workers who were
working in the Capital and other major cities returned home and around 12 lakh
workers moved within the State From 1st April 2020 to 15th September 2020
under NREGA there has been a huge rise in creation of Job Cards and as many
as 98424 people have been enrolled for getting new Job Card Under
MGNREGA approximately 140750 families have been benefitted From 1st
April 2020 to 15th September 2020 4263404 man-days have been generated
This number itself shows how MGNREGA has brought changes in the livelihood
of many families
This pandemic has also seen a huge rise in the number of people who
have taken agriculture as the primary occupation for their livelihood In any case
agriculture is arguably the least affected sectors of the economy It is seen as
the only bright spot in an otherwise dismal economic state which is poised to
gain and is likely to lead the economyrsquos revival process
The bumper rabi harvest is a good sign but farm labour economy has been
adversely affected There has been a large-scale reverse migration of workers
from urban and rural work destinations This will at least in the short run add
workers to the rural work force
In the short run wages are likely to remain sticky and we will witness a
significant increase in demand for work under MGNREGA especially in source
areas which are invariably the poorest If implemented well MGNREGA can
paly an important role in making sure that workers find work and contribute to
improving agriculture sectorrsquos outlook
MGNREGA has another important role which becomes particularly crucial
in COVID-19 pandemic By adopting best practices it acts as a beacon for
establishing the terms of engagement for hiring labour in rural areas In making
an Atmanirbhar Bharat an additional Rs40000 crore has been allocated to
MGNREGA for creation of jobs in Indiarsquos hinterland Earlier in the Budget for
this financial year the Government had allocated Rs61000 crore to
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 362
MGNREGA Thus for the first time ever the total allocation made to MGNREGA
for any financial year comes to over Rs100000 crore
Finally the effectiveness of MGNREGA as a tool for post-COVID-19 rural
economic recovery will depend on three things
1 Whether the local administration is equipped to implement it as a
demand-driven programme
2 Whether village panchayats are well-equipped to take advantage of
it and
3 Whether useful assets are created that will boost local agrarian
economy
With this I would like to conclude my speech Thank you

the worst of the pandemic is behind us With declining growth of active cases
and fatality ratio the nation will emerge out stronger from the crisis
It is sad to know that till now more than 85000 people have died in the
country due to the COVID-19 pandemic But I would also like to mention that
India is one of the few countries in the world with lowest mortality rate below 4
per cent even when the mortality rate peaked in April I would like to mention
that in the month of May at the global level the mortality rate had peaked at
more than 7 per cent levels
It is due to the timely measures taken by our hon Prime Minister Shri
Narendra Modi that we have been able to maintain less than 3 of mortality
rate and have successfully continued to reduce the mortality rate below 2 per
cent levels today
Today in India the rate of growth of active cases has fallen to 07 per
cent we can soon expect the growth rate of active cases to fall down close to
zero per cent which is essentially known as ldquoFlattening of the curverdquo for active
cases India has done appreciable job in reducing mortality rate as compared to
the developed economies of the West We all should unanimously appreciate
and laud the Prime Minister for his quick decisions and guidance for the country
It is really sad to see that some States being one of the most developed
States of the country Maharashtra is failing to reduce Test Positivity Rate below
20 per cent It is saddening to see one in every five persons tested testing
positive Many States have done commendable job in increasing testing and
maintaining lower test positivity rate and lower case fatality rate

Secondly we must appreciate the efforts made by doctors nurses para-
medical staff in such times In such difficult times the police forces bureaucrats
have been working overtime away from their family I bow down to them for their
service to the nation in such difficult times There have been a lot of NGOs
thousands of volunteers who have supported the efforts of Government in
checking the spread of COVID-19 virus
I have learnt that about 382 doctors have died on duty the country shall
forever be indebted to them for their service and sacrifice I request the
Government to acknowledge their sacrifice and provide them with appropriate
compensation for their service
Further I also thank all my colleagues from Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha
for their service to the people of their constituency the migrant workers and the
citizens of India during the lockdown
Speaker Sir in my constituency of Jhalawar-Baran along with the
Karyakartas of Bharatiya Janata Party our teams have distributed food packets
dry ration kits ayurvedic kaadha masks sanitizers and even footwear to
migrant workers irrespective of their cast and religion
In Baran district the Karyakarta of BJP have distributed 3700 ration kits
about more than 12 lakh cooked food packet 15000 people were distributed
ayurvedic kaadha We distributed about 32000 masks in socio-economically
backward regions of Baran district In Baran we even helped and supported the
migrant workers passing through on feet About 15000 cooked food packets
were distributed to the migrant workers and 300 pairs of footwear were
distributed
In Jhalawar district the BJP Karyakartas have distributed more than 2
lakh cooked food packets 27700 dry ration kits and 270 pairs of footwear to the
migrant workers
I thank the volunteer who all worked hard towards supporting the people
of Jhalawar-Baran

DR T SUMATHY (A) THAMIZHACHI THANGAPANDIAN (CHENNAI
SOUTH) Hon Speaker Vanakkam
COVlD-19 is an imported disease and self-inflicted disaster It was
originated in China and spread to all countries through humans only The first
COVID-19 positive case was identified in Kerala on 31 January 2020
Thereafter it started to rise through further arrival of foreign passengers and
their immediate contacts So the Government and everyone knew about the
veracity of COVID-19 by January and February 2020 itself No one can dispute
it
By the time that is 18 March 2020 the Union Government had decided
to stop all international passenger flights and banned the entry of anyone from
abroad almost an estimated 25 lakh passengers from abroad have entered and
dispersed across various States corners of India Thus the Coronavirus crisis
started in India a big blunder which could not be resolved till date
If the Government acted in time that is January or February and stopped
those arriving from abroad and isolated those arrived for a month or so then the
country might not get this virus entry into every corner of the country and the
common man might not be at a receiving end Due to lethargic and improperly
acts of the Government the virus spread across the country The Government
should shoulder the responsibility as it failed to act in time and now crushing the
common man who is vulnerable and unbearable to the situation It is not even
extending any sufficient relief to those in need Several households are facing
food scarcity I just leave it to the hon Members sitting in this august House to
understand and judge where when and how it went wrong to reach this
unbearable lockdown
The life of migrant labourers is beyond all levels of suffering The pictures
of the migrant workers leaving the cities by foot with their luggage in one hand
holding the children in other many young men carrying their aged mother or
father on their shoulders the small children walking along with their parents in
sweltering heat without chappals will be etched in our sad memories forever

The ghastly images of migrant workers smashed by a goods train in
Maharashtra cannot be deleted from the dark pages of history which happened
due to the inefficiency and incompetence of the ruling Government
The Government at the Centre blaming the State Governments for their
grave mistakes has become a common phenomenon The ill effects and ground
reality due to COVlD-19 lockdown on the people of this country is still not
ascertained properly Barring the people who get a regular income monthly as
salary or pension all others are suffering a lot Out of the 138-crore population
100 crores are plunged into deep trouble People working as daily wage
labourers those working in unorganised sector farm workers migrant labourers
from various categories lorry tempo taxi and auto drivers domestic workers
have suffered severely due to this self-inflicted COVID-19 crisis
In India there are around one crore drivers who earn their livelihood
through driving vehicles from lorry bus car and auto rickshaws The five months
lockdown has destroyed their career beyond recuperation Those who had
borrowed loan from banks or private lenders for their taxis and autos were
unable to pay their loan dues They too have a family living in a single room
house with aged parents unmarried sisters wives and children We just cannot
imagine the difficulties faced by them during the lockdown period
All I want to say is that the Government has not applied its mind and have
not done enough homework to be in the state of preparedness and readiness to
fight COVlD-19 crisis The Government either failed to analyse the inputs
reaching from China and other countries when the COVlD-19 started there in
December or it is the blatant failure of intelligence and diplomats working in
China and abroad Nevertheless we had three full months of time to prepare
and plan to combat COVlD-19 but failed miserably to be prepared This is due
to the Governmentrsquos preoccupation to prepare for the extravaganza related to
the personal visit of US President during 23rd to 24th February 2020
Secondly when the entire world was busy in preparation to fight COVID-
19 the ruling Government was cunningly cleverly and keenly focused only on
dislodging the duly elected Government in Madhya Pradesh using unethical
means This greediness to derail the duly elected Government has made the
Government insane and insensitive to the early warnings of some senior MPs
and leaders of opposition parties and the Government continued to run
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 377
Parliament till 23rd March 2020 when the Government mission was successfully
accomplished a day before Madhya Pradesh Government was captured and
the very next day full lockdown was announced by the Prime Minister and it
came into effect all over the country without any thoughts on the people
especially the migrant workers That is why when COVID-19 started to spread
in India we did not have even testing kits with us or laboratories to check and
ascertain the COVlD-19 patients There was very low production of protective
gears PPEs masks gloves and we lagged far behind in the supply of sanitisers
too That is the reason why India could not respond effectively to fight against
Corona and the numbers got increased
In India regular testing started happening only in the first week of March
after the emergence of the first few cases Starting with just one laboratory the
Pune-based National Institute of Virology that was testing samples at that time
India now managed to have a network of more than 1100 laboratories that are
conducting these diagnostic tests More than two lakh samples are being tested
every day Considering the large population the penetration of testing is still
quite low Indiarsquos testing numbers per one million population are still low
compared to many other countries
The Government says that economy was badly affected during COVID-
19 lockdown Agreed But was our economy booming in the previous years of
this Government No It is getting bad to worse and worse to worst in the last
six years and has reached point of no return at the moment Today I have no
hesitation in saying that our countryrsquos economy is pushed a clear 20 years back
and it will take several years of herculean works to set it right and put it back
In this precarious condition the countryrsquos economy is reeling under
tremendous pressure and distress Our countryrsquos GDP will certainly show a
negative growth The humongous damage caused to our economy before and
after COVID-19 has pushed us to years backward It may take six years or more
for our country to reach the same position India was in 2013 That too if a steady
8-10 per cent growth in GDP is achieved in the next six years But as of now we
have -239 per cent GDP The internal debt of the country has crossed Rs 100
lakh crore This means we have already lost 12 years I wish the Government
do not commit any hara-kiri and also hope that there will be no more big
calamities or any self-inflicted catastrophe
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 378
On the financial front actually the Union government should have
convened a Special Session of Parliament to recalculate and recalibrate the
income possibilities and expenditure priorities as the already passed Budget is
by now unrealistic The Budget 2020-21 passed by Parliament looks
unachievable due to the loss of time and opportunities The priorities have
changed drastically after the COVlD-19 crisis The provisions made for many
projects could be modified postponed or withdrawn accordingly It is therefore
very important to have a Revised Budget 2020-21 with more emphasis on new
initiatives with adequate financial provisions to mitigate the issues and problems
encountered by the people aftermath of COVlD-19 lockdown crisis It is
therefore my humble request to the hon Prime Minister and the Finance
Minister to convene a Special Session of Parliament and make suitable changes
in Budget 2020-21 and make it practically achievable
Government of India should openly announce the details of the trade and
economic deals bilateral treaties signed with China in the last six years and
explain to the people of our country why the Modi Government has signed such
deals with the brutal and treacherous country like China in the last six years in
spite of heavy opposition from nationalists from various corners of the country
The adamant behaviour of leaders of both countries fully know the
imminent danger and disadvantages faced by our country due to these treaties
and trade deals For whose benefit these deals and treaties are signed Order
for an independent authority to probe and find the intricacies of the trade deficits
and economic imbalances in these deals and treaties It is high time for the
Government to speak the truth with the common public Otherwise History will
punish the people who are responsible for this debacle beyond just words
The COVlD-19 crisis has left every profession and professional in the-
lurch be it a Doctor or Engineer or Lawyer a category of people who have
established their career and serving the society The medical practitioners and
their staff are the most affected and in fighting COVID-19 many in this medical
field have lost their invaluable lives The Engineering professionals and IT
professionals were affected very much due to the COVlD-19 lockdown
The COVID-19 crisis has worsened the life of genuine lawyers and their
clients who solely depends on justice to be delivered in time Justice delayed is
Justice denied Courts in India are paralyzed by COVlD-19 crisis and plagued
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 379
by the shortage of Judges The Union Law Ministry is on ldquoKumbhakarna Sleep
Moderdquo
There are 60000 cases pending in the Supreme Court and 45 lakh cases
in 25 High Courts in the country At the District and subordinate court levels the
number of pending cases stand at a shocking Rs 314 crore as of November
2019 27 lakh of these cases are less than years old 85 lakh are pending for
more than five years but less than 10 years and 85 lakh are over 10 year old
The COVlD-19 crisis has paralyzed and the lockdown has knocked down
the Judicial System and most of the genuine lawyers have literally knocked out
of jobs became incomeless clients shed tears of blood But as far as the Judges
and court staffs like Registrars Assistant Registrars Court Marshals etc are
concerned they enjoy a paid lockdown There is not a single penny loss though
they work just 20-30 per cent to their capacity and capabilities
COVID-19 has robbed the people three months of court proceedings and
genuine open court arguments In the absence of any personal interaction or
open court hearings the Registry departments of Courts have become the Demi
Gods and the Judges have literally turned into invisible Lords
The Indian judiciary is already suffering due to the shortage of judges
Nearly 40 per cent of sanctioned number of Judges are still unfilled
Unfortunately the Union Law Ministry and Ministerial people of State
Governments are sleeping as if heavens are not going to fall If the courts are
not functioning to its full potential the Government is least bothered of the
dangerous consequences of paralyzing of our Judicial System not working to
the fullest capacity and potential When everything is lost people look up on
Judiciary and Justice and if that Judicial System is not working to the desired
levels a kind of alleged Police excess and lawlessness in the society is
inevitable It is time to wake up or else expect a catastrophe Hope the top ranks
in the Government and Judiciary will discuss deliberate and come up with some
real solution to address this unprecedented lockdown in Judicial system
If the COVID-19 situation is not going to improve and if the Government
of India does not intervene next few months will witness that several lakh people
packing their baggage permanently back to India As per the recent data there
are about 15 crore NRls and 2 crore PlOs living all around the World The
COVID-19 may force at least one quarter of this 15 crore NRl population and
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 380
10 per cent of the 25 crore PIOs return to India which means at least 50 lakh
people who had a settled life would be unsettled and forced to come back
Countries like Australia Bahrein Bhutan Canada China Germany Italy
Kuwait Malaysia Nepal Netherlands New Zealand Nigeria Oman
Philippines Qatar Saudi Arabia Singapore South Africa Spain UAE UK and
USA have large NRl population While Australia Canada Fiji France Germany
Guyana Indonesia Israel Italy Jamaica Kenya Malaysia Mauritius Myanmar
Netherlands New Zealand Portugal Singapore South Africa Sri Lanka
Suriname Tanzania Thailand Trinidad and Tobago UK and USA have large
PlO population
The plight of those people who were to return to these countries to
continue their education business or professional work will not be permitted until
and unless COVlD-19 situation improves in India thereby causing enormous
stress and suffering to these people The government should find a remedial
solution to this crisis through the diplomatic routes Otherwise the life and career
of these people will be lost
COVID-19 crisis if not for a comprehensive drugvaccine to control the
spread of the virus would affect and alter the demography of the world countries
in the coming months Indian Diaspora is going to be the worst hit I urge the
Union Government to take all possible diplomatic and political administrative
steps to stop or reduce this Demographic relocation
The fishermen community in Tamil Nadu are one of the most affected
communities in the country due to the COVID-19 crisis and the unprecedented
and unplanned lockdown Already year after year the fishermen of coastal
Tamil Nadu were battered by natural calamities as well as from indiscreet
interference by the Sri Lankan counterparts The COVID-19 has completely
collapsed their livelihood Export of Fish and marine products has paralysed
beyond recuperation at this juncture
The coastal corridor in Tamil Nadu consists of 13 districts with 15 major
ports and harbours sandy beaches lakes and river estuaries Tamil Nadu has
a fishermen population of 2 million and the coast consists of three major fishing
harbours three medium fishing harbours and 363 fish landing centres
Unfortunately there have been several incidents of fighting for fishing rights
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 381
between Indian and Sri Lankan fishermen while fishing in the Palk Strait where India
and Sri Lanka are only separated by 12 nautical miles
Fishing has to be recognised at par with agriculture The fisher communities
suffer very much due to natural calamities like cyclone rough sea heavy rains heavy
floods hurricanes and tsunami They need waiving of their loans by Government
COVlD-19 has created a very bad situation for fishermen Governments at both
Centre and State together should provide Rs 5000 to about Rs 50000 to poor
fishermen in Tamil Nadu to mitigate the Coronavirus lockdown crisis
The continuous increase in the price of petroldiesel during the COVlD-19
crisis is like rubbing salt on the wounds People sufferings have reached
threshold levels I urge the Union Government to act with compassion and
common sense to reduce the escalating petroldiesel prices immediately It is
high time for the Government to reduce the petrol and diesel prices Otherwise
people will suffer from an unprecedented agony and pain
Indiarsquos COVlD-19 scenario is going from ldquobad to worserdquo stage to ldquoworse
to the worstrdquo stage and our hon Prime Minister is busy in feeding peacock
writing poems and continue his rhetoric speeches like his usual monthly Mann
Ki Baat It took 110 days for COVID-19 cases in India to reach one lakh while
just 59 days more to go past 10 lakhs Indiarsquos COVID-19 cases rose from 10
lakh to 20 lakhs in 21 days and 20 lakhs to 30 lakhs in just 16 days Indiarsquos
COVID-19 tally had crossed the 20-lakh mark on 7th August and went past 30
lakhs on 23rd August From 30 to 50 lakhs an addition of 20 lakh cases took just
three weeks At this current rate we can presume that by the end of September
Indiarsquos COVID-19 tally would easily cross 60 lakhs With the death toll increasing
steadily there is no way we could expect normalcy by October or November
There could be possibility to impose the lockdown once again till a vaccine to
curb COVlD-19 is discovered and distributed for public use Let us see the
further lsquoAct of Godrsquo is benevolent and merciful
COVID-19 has not spared anyone Even in the high-profile Ministers and
Members of Parliament are being affected Take the case of our Union Home
Minister He is the second most protected person in the country Only the
designated and approved individuals are allowed to meet him or come into any
kind of physical proximity with him Therefore the hon Home Minister getting
infected by COVID-19 and that too when the country needs him 247 he was
indisposed for several days It needs to be probed to ascertain if there is any
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 382
sabbatical move to curb the functioning of the all-powerful Minister l urge the
Government to initiate a fact-finding inquiry in this regard
On one side COVlD-19 has become the biggest health hazard and on the
other side the countryrsquos finance is shrinking like never before When the finances
drying up fast with considerable decline in the revenue the biggest problem for the
Government will be to fund its own projects in the coming months
Sir India is not an under developed country But it has been ruined by
underdeveloped minds This Government has lost its focus and attention and drift
away from economic priorities But it seems to be happy to focus more on divisive
religious ideologies and priorities This Government is not a game changer but only
a name changing Government It is either a slogging Government or just a
sloganeering Government This Government needs mentoring on all aspects of
politics economy and public welfare Electoral success will not guarantee a success
in governance too The real problem of the present Government is that if the pressing
issues are not addressed properly we might see a catastrophe in near future What
we need at the moment is a collective lsquoSave Indiarsquo Movement not a lsquoSlave Indiarsquo
Movement
I am really sorry to say that India has not only lost a golden opportunity to avert
the COVlD-19 but it has failed beyond the recovery in all other fronts It will be an
uphill task for the Government and the people of our country to come out of the
COVlD-19 crisis and its ill effects As far as Tamil Nadu is concerned we have great
people but miserable rulers at the moment Whatever happened we cannot stop now
The most pathetic thing is that people at the helm of affairs at the Government in
Tamil Nadu have indulged in corruption and siphoning of the amount designated for
COVID-19 crisis People are the ultimate sufferers due the inefficient Governments
at Centre and at State which has damaged the social fabric of the country including
Tamil Nadu This is the harsh and bitter truth The difficulties of the people may
increase manyfold once the lockdown is lifted but at the moment there is no way the
Government can lift the lockdown as the COVlD-19 cases in the country are
increasing in lakhs each day and the death toll is reaching one lakh
If this is the situation at the ground level today I cannot imagine how bad it
would turn out after two months when the cold weather and rains engulf the most of
the country COVID-19 crisis has left us with no other choice not because it is serious
but because of the incapable insensitive Governments at both Centre and State

SHRI B B PATIL (ZAHIRABAD) Sir Indias corona virus tally has raced past
the 54-lakh mark as more than 93337 COVID-19 cases were registered in the
last 24 hours according to the latest government figures
The data also underlines that the death toll in the nation has crossed the
86752 figure With a vaccine fit for public circulation still at least six to ten
months away the pandemic continues to ravage the country as
cases of cross-infection rise in the nation
While global health experts and scientists have been warning about the
onset of community transmission in India the Government still maintains that
there is no community spread in the country currently
Community transmission occurs when the source of the
contagion is not known ie when you cannot identify the clear source of
infection in a new community and the virus can infect anyone with no history of
contact with affected people and areas
In this scenario it becomes impossible to trace the original source of
infection back to a carrier
At this stage of the transmission where a person with no travel history or
any contact with infected people can also catch the infection
The national capital which was seemingly on a lsquopath of recoveryrsquo after
hitting the supposed peak in the month of July again started witnessing a sharp
rise in the corona virus cases from the last week of August till now
India has become the second worst affected nation by the COVID-19
pandemic We might soon overtake the USA in the total number of infections
next month
So far COVID-19 infections were heavily concentrated in large cities
located in Indias more prosperous States Delhi Mumbai Chennai among
others
The preparedness of the health system is much higher there than
elsewhere But recorded cases are now rising fast in Indias poorer States
where health services are very fragile
As the COVID-19 crisis absorbs their meager resources many public
health centers have stopped providing routine services
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 384
Even child immunization has been discontinued for months in many
States Some States paint a grim picture of missing doctors unattended
patients broken equipment and stray dogs Where are people with routine
health problems supposed to go
Not to forget the issues faced by disabled persons be it Financial
difficulties lack of access to essential services and little to no
assistance from the government were and still is some of the difficulties that
persons with disabilities have been facing during the COVID-19 and lockdown
In India there is one doctor for every 1457 people as per the
countrys current population estimate of 135 billion which is
lower than the World Health Organisation norm of 11000 as per
the Government
The other reason for a possible mortality spike is that Indias
prolonged national lockdown (from late March until unlock phases
began in June) has destroyed millions of peoples livelihoods
Local lockdowns continue in many States and are likely to persist off and
on for months Unlike affluent countries India has very little to show by way of
a social security system except for food subsidies and some relief work under
the National Rural Employment Guarantee Act
The employment crisis has already hit poor households really hard
Extreme food insecurity during and after the lockdown
Just to cite one 78 percent of the 25000 respondents in the nationwide
CSDS (Centre for the Study of Developing Societies) survey said that they had
found it quite difficult or ldquovery difficult to feed their families during the
lockdown
Acute food insecurity is very likely to translate into higher mortality
For children it also means lasting damage from malnutrition
A recent survey of some 20000 returning migrant workers found that 60
per cent were unable to ensure two square meals for all members of the family
With the local economy in the doldrums except for farming casual
workers are heading for a prolonged period of underemployment and hunger
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 385
With tax revenue a fraction of normal levels State Governments are finding
it difficult to provide more than symbolic relief The Central Government is doing little
to help them
Without much help from the Centre our Telangana Government still has been
taking several measures to tackle COVID-19 cases in the State and provide relief to
the people of the State
The Central Government did launch some limited relief measures during the
national lockdown such as free food-grain rations of five kilograms per person per
month for two thirds of Indias population
But now it seems to have lost interest and left it to the State Governments to
handle the crisis Doctors and nurses critical of the Governments crisis response
have been muzzled or harassed as have many journalists been
Muddled statistics are routinely invoked to reassure the public that all is well
In its hurry to turn India into a viswaguru (world leader) the Modi
Government seems to have little patience for a humanitarian crisis Yet denying a
crisis is the surest way to make it worse There seems no one way of ending the
pandemic in sight We need to bring the focus on controlling the spread of the
disease It can only be achieved through a degree of herd immunity following the
social distancing norms and a safe and effective vaccine
The combination of all three measures will only be helpful in slowing down
the spread of the disease However delivering a vaccine is easier said than done
From timely regulatory approvals to devising protocols for inoculation in a country
like India with over 138 billion population there can be quite a few challenges
authorities will have to tackle
Several countries have already drawn up plans to ensure priority access to
any approved COVID vaccine for the essential workers like defence men healthcare
workers and teaching staff Many also feel that the elderly need to be inoculated
first Indian authorities too need to figure out the priority groups which would need
coverage first
Smoothening out delivery details like this would get rid of confusion and
provide more security to those who could be at a higher risk than others Phased
out vaccination drive instead of or random dosage would also work out for the best
in a country with a sizeable population like India
Steps taken by Telangana Government amid COVID-19
Movement Restrictions
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 386

DR KALANIDHI VEERASWAMY (CHENNAI NORTH) I thank you for allowing
this discussion which is very pertinent and appropriate at this time to discuss the
effects of COVID-19 and the Governmentrsquos handling of the situation
I would like to go through the unfolding events in a chronological manner
to remind the House of the events which unfolded The first news of COVID-19
as a global threat started in November 2019 from the news about a deadly
disease killing several people in Wuhan China The Chinese Government
announced lockdown in several regions progressively from 23rd January 2020
Other countries announced lockdown from as early as 12th March 2020
and our hon Prime Minister announced lockdown on 23rd March 2020 which
lasted for almost ten weeks The sudden announcement of the lockdown threw
the country in utter turmoil which created the following difficulties starvation
unemployment no access to medical supplies or help and migrant labour issues
apart from complaints of discrimination and police excesses
Sir I would like to point out that a father and a son duo (Bennix and
Jayaraj) were tortured to death by the Tamil Nadu Police and the opposition
parties and public had to stage huge protests to bring the perpetrators to justice
This shows the extent of police excesses which prevailed in Tamil Nadu
Sir the medical facilities in the initial days of the lockdown were so
unorganised that people were running from pillar to post to get admitted in the
hospitals despite Tamil Nadu having one of the most robust healthcare
infrastructures Thanks to leaders like Perarignar Anna Kalaignar Karunanidhi
and M G Ramachandran
The performance of the Governments both Central and the State were
closely monitored by our Party leader Thiru M K Stalin and constructive
suggestions were provided which were ignored The Chief Minister of Tamil
Nadu gave wrong information like the disease will come under control within a
few days which led to carelessness by the people which further fomented the
spread of infection In addition the deaths of several hundred people were
overlooked with the dead bodies being handed over to family which further
spread the disease among thousands

Our leader Thiru M K Stalin with his call for ldquoOndrinaivaom Vaardquo which
means lsquoletrsquos unitersquo initiated the programme to feed almost one crore people and
supply medical supplies for the needy I under the able guidance of my leader
was able to feed several thousand families
Sir the efforts of the medical community has to be acknowledged and I
would like to pay homage to hundreds if not more of medical personnel who
lost their lives fighting this dreadful disease It is said that the Government is
unaware of the people who have laid their lives fighting this dreadful disease I
would like to urge the Government to list out the names and honour them their
efforts should not be forgotten as they are martyrs of this country
The Governmentrsquos support for the people has much to be desired The
so-called financial package was a joke with the people of this country The poor
entrepreneurs and MSMEs were all left in the lurch to fend for themselves which
led to starvation deaths migrant labourersrsquo deaths and closure of several
thousand MSMEs
Sir the National Disaster Management Authority headed by the hon
Prime Minister should look into the Report of the Task Force to Review DM Act
2013 which said that the present structure of various authorities under the DM
Act are not conducive for carrying out the tasks it has been mandated to perform
Perhaps if the PM had followed the report the disaster could have been better
managed I hope at least now with lessons learnt from our shortfalls the
Government would strengthen the National Disaster Management Authority as
the days ahead look gloomy with possibility of recurrence of these kinds of
biological attacks manmade or godsent and also with the precarious situation
with our neighbouring countries

SHRIMATI SUPRIYA SADANAND SULE (BARAMATI) According to the World
Bank Policy Note on Gender Dimensions of COVID-19 Pandemic such
pandemics are likely to affect women disproportionately more than men
If we talk about gender implications for health disease exposure in short
term is more for women because of following factors there is a larger share of
women in the health sector and as home and family caregivers which makes
them more exposed to contagion occupational sex-segregation also results in
different levels of exposure - women are more present in client-facing roles in
retail travel leisure and hospitality girls face constraints to access healthcare
services - as per the report by the WHO in India boys are more likely (and
sooner) taken to a qualified health professional for treatment than girls
The recommendation is that providing protective equipment and materials
and COVID-19 testing to higher-risk populations will be key to prevent their
contagion
As far as disruptions in reproductive health care services for women is
concerned the shift in resources towards addressing the public health
emergency can entail disruptions to key health services for women such as
reproductive health services There is for instance evidence of increase in
maternal mortality due to lack of critical resources in similar crises Pregnant
women can be particularly vulnerable in this context
The recommendation is that the pregnant women and maternity wards
require particular attention during the containment phase
Now I am coming to gender implications for education Given the fall in
incomes of households during a pandemic educational investment decisions
are likely to be altered Intra-household allocation of resources for schooling
might be redirected to boys over girls
The recommendation is that targeted measures needed for a section of
girls with no access to lCTs (Internet and Communication Technologies)
The disruption of services with school closures can lead to an increase in
the burden of care-related tasks - likely impacting girls more than boys This will
affect their ability to stay engaged in education in the longer term
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 394
Possibility of an increase in child labour and dropouts - during the
pandemic the pressure to contribute to the family income may also increase
with the tightening economic conditions leading to permanent school dropout
The recommendation is that financial incentive programs can help
encourage families to send children back to school when the confinement phase
is over
There are gender implications for employment and economic conditions
Women will likely experience a significant burden on their time given their
multiple care responsibilities as school closures and confinement measures are
adopted possibly leading to reductions in their working time and permanent exit
from the labour market The over-representation of women among the inactive
population and in vulnerable forms of work (such as informal employment or
domestic work) heightens their vulnerability to poverty in times of crisis
The recommendations are the effectiveness of social protection
responses to the crisis can be improved if these gender dimensions are
considered Social messaging as part of the emergency response can
contribute to a more balanced distribution of household responsibilities and
resources between men and women Cash transfer programs to the most
vulnerable groups including women only households (for example single
mothers with children widows or female farmers) will be necessary both as part
of the emergency response and in the longer term Specific programs to support
womens return to economic activity will also play a central role For example-
public works access to training and credit direct provision of productive inputs
to female farmers
Gender implications within household ndash as regards domestic violence an
increase in gender-based violence (and its severity and frequency) due to
confinement can be observed across countries The stretched capacity of
response services might reduce the protection and support available
contributing to a heightened perception of impunity among perpetrators
The recommendation is that protection and support services need to be
in place and increases in the capacity may be required Innovative solutions to
provide reporting mechanisms for women victims and to accommodate them
and their children will be necessary Social awareness will be key as well as
engaging informal support networks and health workers

There are some important concerns in the way the Centre handled the
pandemic The overall Indias response to the pandemic has been reactionary
instead of being preventive and precautionary The Centre failed to ensure sufficient
availability of PPEs to frontline healthcare professionals NGOs and State
Governments responded better to the needs of citizens than the Centre For
example as part of its efforts to ease distress caused by COVID-19 the Pratibha
Foundation in association with the Yashaswini Samajik Abhiyaan has distributed
protective masks hand gloves hand sanitizers and PPE (Personal Protective
Equipment) kits to healthcare personnel at the forefront including police officers
Foundation also aided the needy households who are strapped of their daily wage
income by providing them with basic necessities food ration and served prepared
food daily to people stranded at the Daund railway station Pune
Until mid-July 2020 there were only two laboratories in India to test and certify
quality of Body-Coveralls for COVID-19 In an Unstarred Question on PPE suits
(QNo935 on 18092020) the Centre acknowledged that as of April 2020 there
were only two laboratories in the country which have the facilities as well as
necessary approvals for conducting tests on Body Coveralls (PPE) required for
COVID-19 These are South India Textiles Research Association (SITRA)
Coimbatore and Defence Research amp Development Establishment (DRDE) Gwalior
The Tests and Certifications of Body Coveralls (PPE) conducted at these two
laboratories in India are the only officially recognized ones
It was not until 16th July 2020 that 9 other testing facilities were announced
Such lack of sufficient facilities to test PPEs could have contributed to the delay in
PPE availability to healthcare workers The High-Level Group on Health Sector
constituted by the Fifteenth Finance Commission in May 2018 headed by Dr
Randeep Guleria Director AIIMS recommended shifting health from the State to the
Concurrent List During the times of a pandemic like COVID-19 effective
coordination between Centre and the States inter-state coordination is important to
respond effectively to the pandemic To enable this and to ensure a more active
responsible role for itself the Centre can consider shifting health subject from the
State List to the Concurrent List in the Seventh Schedule of the Constitution
The Fifteenth Finance Commission High-Level Group on Health Sector and
World Bank met on 21st May 2020 To improve the health response mechanisms in
India the World Bank recommended focus on quality of care centrally sponsored
schemes increasing per capita health spending among others Given that COVID-
19 primarily affects the respiratory system it stressed that infectious diseases like
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 396
tuberculosis need attention What suggestions and comments made during this
meeting has the Centre included in its COVID-19 response plan
India COVID-19 Emergency Response and Health Systems Preparedness
Package (ERampHSP) was approved by Cabinet on 22nd April 2020 for Rs 15000
Crores How much of this Fund is actually released or spent on COVID-19 in past
five months since April 20207 How much of this Rs15000 crore is released to the
States and particularly to my State of Maharashtra As per the data Rs 7500 crore
has been allocated for emergency COVID-19 response Rs 4150 crore has been
allocated for strengthening the national and State health system to support prevent
and preparedness Rs 1400 crore has been allocated for strengthening pandemic
research and multi-sector national institutions and platforms for one health Rs 1050
crore has been allocated for community engagement and risk communication and
Rs 900 crore has been allocated for implementation management capacity
building monitoring and evaluation
The Central Government has announced Rs 20 lakh crore package to combat
the impact of COVID-19 in the country How much of this Rs20 lakh crore was
actually infused into the economy since March 20207 How much of this Rs20 lakh
crore was given to my State of Maharashtra
The Centre was insensitive to the needs of an average citizen After the
lockdown was imposed there was a total absence of any supporting action to ramp
up testing expand the medical sector to help the millions of stranded poor workers
and to assist supply chain break In an Unstarred Question on Migrant Workers
(QNo174 on 14092020) the Centre answered that since it maintained no data on
migrant workers deaths during pandemic no compensation will be paid to the
victimrsquos family
There are multiple confusing rules and regulations issued by Central
Government during lockdown The Economist Magazine (June 13) estimated that
India issued well over 4000 different rules during the first two months of the
lockdown many of those rules being corrections of many of those rules A large
number of bureaucratic orders spelling rules and guidelines on a daily basis have
also created chaos among many stakeholders including businesses and the general
public According to PRS Legislative Research there have been 4130 executive
orders from states and the Centre

SHRI SAPTAGIRI SANKAR ULAKA (KORAPUT) Hon Chairman Sir thank
you for the providing opportunity to speak on the COVID-19 pandemic in the
country As the COVID-19 pandemic situation is going out of control day by day
the cases are increasing rapidly in tribal-dominated undivided Koraput district
Though Covid hospitals have been set up in every district most of these
hospitals are not equipped to treat serious or co-morbid patients We have 10
ICU with ventilators in Jeypore and JK Pur Covid hospitals but these ventilators
are mostly non-functional We donrsquot have Specialists oxygen supply
anesthesiologists etc to make these ventilators and subsequently hospitals
functional After following with the State Government multiple times finally
SLNMCampH has been declared as Covid hospital I would request the Central
Government to set up at least 50 ICU BED Covid hospital in Koraput and
specialists deployed from outside to make these beds functional I would also
request that Covid hospitals be provided with sufficient advanced treatment to
the Covid patients and constitute a team of doctors including Professors from
Medical Colleges to treat the patients
Another key issue is referrals Patients have to travel 400-500 km to
Bhubaneswar by road which is very risky for serious patients Hence I would
urge the Government to establish Air Ambulance leveraging the airstrip at
Jeypore so that serious patients can be transferred to Bhubaneswar without
risking their lives
There was a draconian notification by Odisha State Government which
discouraged patients from outside the State capital being referred to
Bhubaneswar Capacity has been built in Bhubaneswar Cuttack to cater to
treatments of patients from across the State This notification prevents patients
specially from tribal-dominated undivided Koraput district to avail treatment from
specialised hospitals in Bhubaneswar Cuttack There should be clear cut
directions from the Central Government to immediately stay such inhumane
notifications

COVID-19 outbreak and lockdown have impacted tribals and forest
dwellers greatly Now the virus has spread to rural areas especially Scheduled
Areas inhabited by tribals Lack of information and awareness among the tribals
and forest dwellers on the pandemic and required protective measures is a
major issue in tribal areas Tribal settlements are remotely located making it
particularly difficult for information to reach these areas The reverse migration
from cities and urban areas also raises concerns about the spreading of virus in
tribal areas
Poor access of tribal and forest dwellers to PDS is reported from across
the States Provisions under the PDS are not adequately provided or are
provided only to cardholders Ensuring good and nutritious security during the
lockdown in tribalOTFD areas needs to be the highest priority At this time PDS
should be provided to all needy families and migrant workers including those
who donrsquot have any identity cards on humanitarian grounds Insistence on
Aadhar card must be suspended during this period Provision of ration
vegetables cooking oil and other essentials should be made available at the
doorstep
The lockdown has affected collection use and sale of minor forest
produces (MFP) or Non-timber Forest Produce (NTFP) by tribals and forest
dwellers An estimated 100 million forest dwellers depend on MFP for food
shelter medicines and cash income The NFP collection season from April to
June provides major income support to tribals and unfortunately it coincided
exactly with the lockdown The MSP a major economic safety net has failed to
deliver due to lack of implementation in most of the States and slashing of
minimum support prices of many NTFPs by the Central Government
The Ministry of Tribal Affairs (MoTA) has written a letter to States
announcing revisions of MSP for 49 MFPs However what is most critical is the
institutional support that does not exist for collection and procurement of MFPs
with immediate payment Proposal for providing support through Van Dhan
Vikas Kendras (VDVKs) and most of VDVKs are non-functional The Particularly
Vulnerable Tribal Groups (PVTGs) are even more vulnerable a special relief
package for PVTGs comprising adequate grains pulses vegetables oil cash
grant soap and medicines should be provided The migration and seasons
access of pastoralists have been restricted due to the lockdown Also pastoral
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 399
communities have been affected as the milk economy faces severe crisis as
procurement and sale has been affected during the lockdown Diversion of forest
land without the consent of Gram Sabha in violation of the FRA continues even
during the lockdown Even as COVID-19 spreads and livelihoods are affected
due to lockdown there are reports of compensatory afforestation (CA)
plantations being carried out on forest land used by tribals and other traditional
forest dwellers including by fencing o such areas accessed for community rights
I would suggest to set up COVID Response Cell in MoTA ensuring appropriate
guidelines and instructions raising awareness and ensuring healthcare
ensuring food security strengthening NTFP-based livelihoods ensuing support
to PVTGs and pastoral communities support communities living in protected
areas prevent forest diversion and ensuring effective implementation of forest
rights
Thank you Sir

SHRIMATI APARUPA PODDAR (ARAMBAGH) COVID-19 a biomedical
disease has serious physical and tremendous mental health implications as it
is a rapidly spreading pandemic Asian countries like India are currently facing
issue of exponential growth in spread of transmission of COVID-19 in slum areas
of urban cities like Dharavi in Mumbai and the under privileged localities of metro
cities like Delhi
During lockdown period in India migrant workers had faced problems
nation-wide due to sudden ban on travel loss of income food shortage and
uncertainty about future More than 300 migrant workers died due to lockdown
with reasons varying from starvation suicide road and rail accidents lack of
medical care etc Due to COVID-19 pandemic migrant workers faced multiple
hardships They should be provided special assistance by the Central
Government as their families are facing problems to live their lives
According to the psycho-social issues among migrant workers they are
suffering from high degree of anxieties and fears There is no medical help from
the Central Government side for the poor People are jobless More effective
steps should be taken by the Government to prevent spread of COVID-19 Hand
sanitizers and masks should also be provided to people in public places and
healthcare should be given free of cost to the common public
This is the time to fight COVID-19 together Further vaccine for COVID-
19 should be given free of cost to the common man by the Central Government
In this COVID-19 times I would urge the Central Government to give special
financial package to Bengal and clear the pending amount which West Bengal
did not get from the Central Government Our Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee
is facing acute fund crisis Still she is fighting for the people of West Bengal in
this COVID-19 situation
Lastly I thank all the doctors nurses and health workers who are really
doing a good job Thank you

Under the Aatmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyan package several measures were
taken to rescue the overall sections of the people affected by the lockdown
imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic The package aimed at addressing lives
and livelihood issues such as in-kind support like food and cooking gas cash
transfers insurance coverage to healthcare workers wage increase for
MGNREGA workers collateral free loans in support of MSMEs and tax relief

DR RAJDEEP ROY (SILCHAR) Sir Assam is one of the eight North-East
States of India and often called the Gateway to the North-Eastern Region With
a population of 312 million (as per 2011 Census) spread over 33 administrative
districts Assam has vast geographical area of 78438 square kilometres and
shares international borders with Bhutan and Bangladesh In 2011
the literacy rate of Assam was 7318 per cent (males - 7881 per cent females
- 6727 per cent) The River Brahmaputra (identity for the State) traverses
through various districts of state and finally joins Bay of Bengal The core public
health service in Assam is delivered through an institutional structure that
includes seven functional Medical Colleges twenty-five District Hospitals
fourteen Sub-Divisional Hospitals 177 Community Health Centres 946 Primary
Health Centres 54 Urban Primary Health Centres 4643 Sub-Health Centres
(RHS 2018-19)
The Government of Assam has been successfully managing the COVID-
19 pandemic by adopting multi-pronged comprehensive health systems
strengthening strategies with 3-Ts ndash Testing Tracing and Treatment fully in
tune with the Government of India directives for COVID-19 management
complemented by different state specific safety net initiatives These include
need-based policies professionalism of medical and para-medical fraternity
readiness of health facilities by bridging gaps ensuring availability of logistics
strong support from community and frontline workers engagement of private
hospitals for managing non-COVID cases technical assistance from different
Development Partners support of other Allied State Departments etc
The strong political and administrative commitment shown by Sh
Sarbananda Sonowal hon Chief Minister Dr Himanta Biswa Sarma hon
Minister Health and Family Welfare Government of Assam and Sh Piyush
Hazarika Minister of State Health and Family Welfare a strong team of Senior
Bureaucrats and Health Department Officials Allied Department Staff and
Frontline Warriors have ensured that all strategies and plans as framed are
translated into efficiently implemented interventions Technical support from
different Development Partners such as World Health Organization (Regional
Office) UNICEF Jhpiego Piramal Swasthya and SAATHI have been found very
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 407
useful in designing need-based planning to fight back COVID-19 pandemic
unitedly In addition plan execution partners like HLLPPT APOLLO GVK-
EMRI C-NES Krsnaa Laboratories Spandan TBS etc have also extended
their wholesome support All these comprehensive plans set the ground for
rigorous Testing Tracing Isolating and Treating
The State was able to limit the spread of the pandemic initially with only
100 cases till 17th May 2020 since the reporting of first COVID positive case on
31032020 Thereafter cases started increasing with the relaxation of lockdown
and the return of many Assamrsquos residents back to Assam majority of them came
from other COVID-19 hotspot States To tackle the situation Assam adopted
multi-pronged approaches with a policy which can be termed as ldquoAssam Caresrdquo
under which the principle of very strict quarantine measure ldquoStrict quarantine
with a humane heartrdquo has been followed Different approaches adopted have
been proved successful in managing COVID-19 pandemic
As on 19092020 Assam had 155453 confirmed cases and 125540
recovered cases of COVID with a recovery rate of 8075 per cent (national 763
per cent) and case fatality rate of 028 per cent (national 184 per cent) (Table
1) Assamrsquos weekly average of COVID testing in a day (period from 21-08-2020
to 27-08-2020 as in table 2) is 30322 and the weekly average of confirmed
cases in a day is 1822 with an average positivity rate just about six per cent
The doubling time for the state is 218 days
It is heartening to mention that as on 26th August the tests per million
population (TPM) in Assam are 60404 which is more than double of the national
TPM of 26685 and one of the best in the country with the mortality rate of 028
per cent as one of the lowest in the country
Assam adopted an approach of 3Ts - Testing Tracing and Treatment for
management of COVID-19 pandemic in the State This is in line with the national
testing strategy aggressively tracking comprehensively and treating efficiently
However the Statersquos approach is much more comprehensive and inclusive in
nature with a view to bend the curve of COVID The broad specific actions which
are taken are stated below
1 Ensuring Sufficient availability of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) The
State ensured sufficient availability of PPEs (triple-layer mask N-95 and
PPE) to ensure that all COVID warriors feel confident to work in COVID
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 408
management The initial stock procurement made in March-April 2020
helped us to tide over the period of absolute scarcity without significant
difficulties
2 Gap filling of health facilities Gaps in health facilities mainly Medical
Colleges and District Hospitals were assessed on a war footing scale gaps
were bridged and facilities were made ready to manage COVID patients
The state has currently 25750 isolation beds and 58949 quarantine beds
3 Safety and security of COVID warriors The Health Department of Assam
ensures that after every seven days of duty each health care provider is
quarantined for seven days at quarantine centers and the cost is being borne
by the state Each health care staff is tested before and after quarantine The
success of this is reflected in the low mortality of heath care workers from
COVID in the state Though approximately 1900 plus health care workers
have been infected so far only six deaths have been reported among the
health workers in Assam of which only three were associated with COVID-19
duties
4 Training of staff associated in clinical management of COVID State on
priority trained approximately 3000 number of doctors 11000 para-medical
staff and supporting staff etc using virtual mode on clinical management of
COVID and frontline health worker protection The State also trained 700 final
year MBBS students and 2000 final year nursing students as back up COVID
healthcare providers Still continuous training is undertaken to keep them up
to date in latest treatment protocols as COVID treatment protocols are
evolving
5 Massive IEC campaign for mass awareness of Public on COVID-19 For
mass awareness generation ASHAs are mobilized for door-to-door
awareness campaign to inform community on DOrsquos and DONrsquoTs of COVID-
19 IEC Materials were distributed on signs and symptoms preventive
measures (use of mask hand washing and social distancing) using different
media platforms Hon Health Minister Assam shares regular press briefings
to inform people on COVID-19
6 Active support from frontline workers in generating awareness on COVID
Support of all frontline workers (ASHA ANM MPW) has been found highly
beneficial in reaching the last household with COVID-19 awareness
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 409
messages To ramp up testing state started ldquoAssam Community Surveillance
Program (ACSP)rdquo from 07th May 2020 in around 28000 villageswards of the
State to look for SARI (Severe Acute Respiratory Infections) ILI (Influenza
like Illness) fever dengue malaria diarrhea cases and to carry out
appropriate testing (as per the signs and symptoms) Based on the
encouraging feedback of 1st round of ACSP state is carrying out 2nd round of
ACSP with the name Assam Targeted Surveillance Plan (ATSP) -
NISCHAYATA (ACSP-Phase II) Under NISCHAYATA aggressive testing is
carried out at potential hotspots like market places interstate truck terminals
and parking lots random testing of vulnerable people of Health department
Police Transportation workers and Hotels staff etc This aggressive testing
approach ldquoCHASE THE VIRUSrdquo helped in identifying many COVID patients
and starting their timely treatment
7 Psychological support to patients Understanding the psychological impacts
of COVID-19 on the individual and the society an active intervention named
ldquoMononrdquo meaning lsquodeliberate thinkingrsquo was initiated involving Psychiatry
department Gauhati Medical College and LGB Regional Institute of Mental
Health Tezpur and a set of trained and committed volunteers to provide free
of cost psychiatric counselling and treatment to the COVID affected persons
as well as those who were quarantined As on date more than 32000
patients have been contacted over phone to provide psychiatric assistance
In addition free of cost online yoga training for patients in hospitals and Covid
Care Centres is also given
8 Universal screening and testing Assam took a policy decision to quarantine
everyone entering state (by air train and road) followed by testing and based
on the test report home quarantine is given to them whose test report comes
negative and positive cases are taken to hospital for treatment This
approach of ldquoChase the Virusrdquo was very useful in identifying many cases Till
May 2020 Assam could test only 12 Lac but with the ramping up of testing
facilities and testing state could test 207 Lac till 26th August 2020 From one
laboratory in February 2020 now state has 17 ICMR approved laboratories
Tests per million for Assam are 60404 and the positivity rate is 738 per cent
as on 19092020 Of the tests being done about 60 per cent are through
RT-PCR while about 40 per cent are using the point of care rapid antigen
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 410
tests Given the low sensitivity of antigen tests all symptomatic cases found
negative in the antigen test are re-tested using RT-PCR and necessary
actions are taken based on the test report To give the facility of getting tested
to people at Guwahati City 105 COVID Screening and Counselling Centres
(CCC) have been set up spread over in all the 31 wards of Guwahati Similar
facilities have been arranged in all other districts as well to facilitate public
testing free of cost These facilities provide testing and also counselling to
COVID confirmed cases
9 Setting up of Additional COVID Care Centres (CCC) Assam started setting
up of additional COVID Care Centers (CCC) at different places in the state
because of the increasing COVID positive cases Under this existing
colleges and convention centers where available were converted to COVID
Care Centers to cater to increasing COVID positive cases In addition
temporary structure like German Hangers with facilities like individual cabins
and toilets were prepared in war footing to admit and keep mild cases who
could not practice isolation at home
10 Increasing Oxygen production storage and delivery capacity As continuous
supply of medical oxygen is one of the critical elements for treatment of
COVID-19 the State Government is actively undertaking necessary steps to
arrange for sufficient numbers of oxygen cylinders of various capacities to
transport medical oxygen Cryogenic tanks for keeping liquid oxygen are
being established in GMCH and other medical colleges Oxygen generation
plants and oxygen concentrators are also being installed as per need
Infrastructure to provide oxygen through medical gas pipelines in hitherto
unavailable areas within the hospitals is also being undertaken earnestly
11 Scientific and evidence-based management of COVID-19 patients As the
COVID situation evolved the treatment protocols also evolved in the last few
months against COVID From the initial consideration of azithromycin and
hydroxyl chloroquine treatment protocol of COVID has swiftly moved
towards low molecular weight heparin steroids Inj Remdesivir monoclonal
antibodies like Tocilizumab and Itoluzumab convalescent plasma etc and
the state has progressively and timely adopted all the modern treatment for
COVID-19 patient management Many COVID patients could be brought
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 411
back from ICU and ventilators because of timely actions taken by the expert
health providers
12 Convalescent Plasma Therapy Assam is one of the first states in India to
bring in state of art Convalescent Plasma Bank with necessary facilities at
five Medical Colleges State has started motivating eligible cured COVID
patients to donate plasma and to transfuse plasma to the needy at Medical
Colleges of Assam Till 19092020 almost 1000 people have received
plasma therapy
13 Participation of Private Health Facilities In early phase State took support
from private health facilities in Guwahati Dibrugarh and Cachar (districts with
Medical Colleges) to manage all non-COVID cases while making the medical
colleges functional as fullypartly dedicated COVID hospitals Further with
the evolution of COVID-19 private hospitals are regularly supervised and kept
in loop so as to ensure that standard treatment protocols are followed across
the state irrespective of the status of the hospitals In addition free testing
facilities are being extended to private hospitals also so that the citizens
visiting these hospitals are not charged for testing COVID-19
14 Field level COVID Warriors Health care providers including managerial and
support staff have been working selflessly towards surveillance screening
sample collection supply of logistics transportation of samples to the
laboratories and information sharing with the higher authorities Continuous
training and monitoring through district officials and Zonal Medical College
faculties has helped in maintaining the high standards set by the Government
in dealing with COVID-19 patients
15 Facilitation of Home Isolation State started a unique scheme of supplying
necessary medicines and pulse oximeters to COVID positive patients who
are asymptomatic or mildly infected and prefer to remain in home isolation
These patients are supported by telemedicine and video-consultations
through e-sanjeevani with a tag name- SAMPARK Over a period time it is
expected that most of the mild and asymptomatic cases will prefer to have
home isolation However absolute awareness about the danger signs and
proper knowledge about immediate steps to be taken from the patient side
are very critical Hence efforts are being made to create awareness among
public for early testing and treatment
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 412
16 COVID Sero Survey ICMR on request from the State is conducting the sero
survey to detect antibodies to COVID in the population to assess prevalence
of the SARS-CoV-2 virus in three districts of Assam and the survey report is
likely to be shared with State by early September 2020 Depending on the
feedback the State is also planning to conduct sero survey for Antibody
through ELISA-based tests in large scale as per the requirements for future
planning
As explained above the Government of Assam is undertaking a large
gamut of activities in order to keep the citizens safe and healthy Obviously the
Government of India policy is strictly followed with Statersquos own innovative plans
and implementation of the same All these activities definitely have huge cost
impact and the Statersquos own fund is not enough to meet all the expenses at the
same time Even with the Government of Indiarsquos assistance the expenditure
already made for COVID-19 management with the pending liabilities and future
needs for this financial year alone is a huge burden on the State Government

SHRI UNMESH BHAIYYASAHEB PATIL (JALGAON) Thank you Sir for giving
me an opportunity to take part in this discussion under Rule 193 on a matter of
immense importance which not only concerns our country but also the whole
world which has seen 31 million cases across the world
I would like to thank our Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji under
whose leadership India has led from the front in our fight against this pandemic
and Dr Harsh Vardhan ji who has been working day and night to manage the
situation in an effective manner
The world and several institutions including the WHO are now looking up
to India to lead the fight and the Indian model as an example to emulate Apart
from handling the health pandemic India has also deftly dealt with the economic
situation arising as a result notable among them are the measures taken for the
vulnerable sections of the society who are the worst hit and are expectedly
facing hardships
India would now be playing a more prominent role at the World Health
Organisation WHO with Union Health Minister Dr Harsh Vardhan set to take
charge as Chairman of the WHO Executive Board at its 147th session
Indiarsquos response to COVID-19 has been ldquopre-emptive pro-active and
graded The Government had already put in place a lsquocomprehensive response
systemrdquo at the borders of the country much before the World Health
Organisation declared the coronavirus as a public health emergency of
international concern on January 30 Such a response ensured that there was
no panic among the citizens and avoided inconvenience to the extent possible
The Indian Government has also evacuated its citizens and those of its
neighbours from high-risk countries including China Japan Iran and Italy The
Government started screening of incoming air passengers followed by
suspension of visas and a ban on international flights were done much ahead of
any other country Italy and Spain started screening travellers 25 days and 39
days respectively after the first reported cases

Equally noteworthy are the various public awareness campaigns Prime
Minister Shri Modi has shown leadership in mobilizing the Heads of Governments of
the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) and that of the G-20
to share reliable information best practices and support each other in fighting this
pandemic
I will conclude with some suggestions to further bolster our fight against
corona
My first suggestion is the scope of Ayushman Bharat Indiarsquos flagship
insuranceassurance scheme launched with the vision of universal healthcare and
leaving no one behind should be expanded to include the 40 per cent lsquomissing
middlersquo who are neither covered by private insurance nor by the Government so that
any COVID-19 related expenses are covered by the Government
My second suggestion is this Businesses have a responsibility towards their
employees Those employees who are not on any permanent contract often become
the first casualty of cost cutting measures and are the most vulnerable It will be
critical for businesses to ensure all such employees continue to get paid and that
companies can partner with the Government to ensure their health coverage
My third suggestion is this The Constitution of India distributes the legislative
powers between the Centre and the States under the Seventh Schedule Services
related to public health sanitation hospitals and dispensaries are categorised under
Entry 6 of List II and is the responsibility of the States The rationale to entrust the
responsibility of public health and sanitation to the States is because the health
requirements vary from one State to another
But when it comes to making effective response strategy for tackling
pandemics that affect the health of the population around the country it becomes
imperative for the Union to spearhead the nationwide planning in consort with the
State Governments
In fact given their inherent challenges it becomes implicit for the States to
look up to the Union Government for a direct intervention to mobilise their medical
resources and devise efficient strategies for routing the resources where it is most
needed
With these suggestions I conclude my speech

SHRI NABA KUMAR SARANIA (KOKRAJHAR) Hon Speaker Sir I am
thankful to you for allowing me to speak on the COVID-19 discussion under
Rule 193
In my State three Governments are functioning namely the Central
Government State Government and BTC When the lockdown was declared
the BTC Assembly elections were going on Later on 27th April 2020 the
Governor Rule was imposed in the BTC Till today Model Code of Conduct is
imposed there
Sir yesterday I came to know that Assam Government had written to the
Election Commission of Assam to postpone the BTC elections But I think it is
not the right solution The people of the BTC have suffered so much during the
lockdown and Model Code of Conduct The BTC election procedure up to
symbol distribution has been completed Only six to seven days are left for
competing the BTC Assembly Elections I think it is possible by maintaining all
the COVID-19 protocols before 27th October 2020
So I would request the Central Government to please advise the State
Government to strictly maintain the COVID-19 guidelines in the BTC area
because in their campaigning so many parties have organised mass gatherings
and even some responsible State Ministers have participated there by violating
the social distancing norms Some were even not wearing masks
So these norms should be followed strictly I will extend all the possible
support to the State Government and the Central Government in this regard
Thank you

SHRI JAGDAMBIKA PAL (DOMARIYAGANJ) Respected hon Speaker Sir I
rise to lay on the table of the House the facts on the discussion under rule 193
on COVID-19 Pandemic in the country
Sir the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare acknowledged the
emergence of a new coronavirus (COVID-19) that was spreading across China
The first Indian case of COVID 19 was reported on 30th January 2020 The
Ministry of Home Affairs announced a 21-day lockdown to contain the spread of
COVID-19 from March 25 2020 to April 14 2020 As the spread increased and
more information about the virus was uncovered the Central Government
announced several policy decisions to contain it
Further measures were also announced to support citizens and
businesses who were affected by such containment measures India started
point of entry screening of passengers at ports airports and land border
crossings Under Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Yojana to provide relief against
COVID-19 the Finance Minister announced a relief package of 17 lakh crore
rupees for the poor An Insurance cover of Rs50 lakh was provided to health
workers (such as doctors nurses paramedics and ASHA workers) who are
treating patients of COVID-19 About 80 crore poor people got five kilograms of
wheat or rice and one kilogram of preferred pulses were also provided for free
every month Women account holders under the Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan
Yojana got Rs500 per month and also free gas cylinders were distributed to the
needy people
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has constituted an Advisory Committee
to review the Ways and Means Advances (WMA) limits for States and UTS
WMA limits refer to temporary loans given by the RBI to State Governments
Until the Committee submits its final recommendations the WMA limit has been
increased by 30 from the existing limit for all States and UTs The revised
limits will be in force between April 1 and September 30 2020
Sir todays our Government has reached the level of more than 12 lakh
COVID tests per day This strongly demonstrates an exponential increase
COVID-19 testing infrastructure in the country
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 419
The countrys testing capacities have multiplied manifold From
conducting merely 10000 tests per day on 8th April the daily average has
crossed 12 lakhs today In addition for treatment of those affected by COVID
the Government is implementing Ayushman Bharat-Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya
Yojana under which 601 coaches have been converted into Covid Care Centres
by Indian Railways
Sir in all 4621 Shramik Special trains have been operated between 1st
May 2020 to 31st August 2020 carrying 6319 lakhs stranded passengers to
their home states From Zero manufactures to 1100 indigenous manufacturing
of PPE kits shows the Central Government achievement in tackling the problem
of COVIDndash19 An amount of Rs11092 crore has been provided under State
Disaster Risk Management Fund to all States to tackle COVID-19
Sir I would like to request that 90 oxygen cylinders may be used for
COVID patient and the rest 10 may be used for other chronic diseases The
steps taken by our Government to tackle the problem of COVID-19 pandemic is
very praiseworthy I am therefore fully satisfied and also appreciate the major
allocation of funds to the States as well as to the poor people to overcome the
problem of COVID Pandemic

SHRI P P CHAUDHARY (PALI) Iniarsquos response to COVID-19 has been pre-
emptive pro-active and graded The country has already put in place a
comprehensive response system at its borders much before the WHO declared
it as a public health emergency of international concern which is January
302020
Many of my friends are criticizing the announcement of lockdown I would
like to call their bluff and remind them if the lockdown was not announced in a
sudden manner it would have created a havoc People distressed lining for
tickets price rise of essential commodities and travel plans the crowded
movement of masses would have spread COVID-19 from the urban to far flung
distant corners of the country
Under such extraordinary circumstances where we knew not what was
the propensity of the threat from disease which originated in China where even
the WHO was misled a good leadership leads with confidence works for the
betterment of situation and arrange for facilities needed PM Shri Modi was able
to announce the lockdown at such short notice because he had made
arrangements prior to announcement different from the Congress era when
announcements were done with distant dreams of materialization in future which
never happened
Coming to PM Garib Kalyan Yojana on March 26 when the Government
announced a relief package of Rs17 lakh crore under the Pradhan Mantri Garib
Kalyan Yojana for the poor the Opposition was doing politics and bickering on
social media tapping from the comforts of their air-conditioned homes and
offices
In pursuance of the pro-poor announcement made under the Pradhan
Mantri Garib Kalyan package as part of the economic response to COVID-19
the Government of India had launched the scheme for additional allocation of
foodgrains from the Central pool at the rate of five kilogram per person per month
free of cost for all the beneficiaries covered under the Targeted Public
Distribution System (TPDS) (AAY amp PHH) including those covered under the
DBT for a period of three months that is April-June 2020
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 421
Accordingly about 121 LMT of foodgrain was allotted to approximately
8096 crore beneficiaries entailing a subsidy outgo of nearly Rs46061 crore
Necessary orders were issued on 30032020
The scheme was further extended as part of economic response to
COVID-19 for another five months from July to November 2020 for distribution
to all the beneficiary households under the National Food Security Act 2013
(NFSA) at the rate of five kilogram per person per month free of cost for all the
beneficiaries covered under the Targeted Public Distribution System
(TPDS)National Food Security Act (NFSA) Accordingly about 201 LMT of
foodgrains have been allotted to approximately 8043 crore beneficiaries
entailing subsidy outgo of nearly Rs7606212 crore Till June 30 2020
Rs18000 crore has been transferred to the bank accounts of more than nine
crore farmers and Rs50000 crore is being spent on PM Garib Kalyan Rojgar
Abhiyaan which has been started to provide employment opportunities
Coming to Aatma Nirbhar Bharat we never took refuge behind COVID-19
pandemic to shy from our responsibilities but we saw this as an opportunity to
develop India and launched the Aatma Nirbhar Bharat Scheme Hon Prime
Minister Shri Narendra Modi on May 12 2020 announced the special economic
and comprehensive package of Rs20 lakh crore which is equivalent to 10 per
cent of Indiarsquos GDP to fight the COVID-19 pandemic in India Indiarsquos self-
reliance is ingrained in the happiness cooperation and peace of the world with
the sacrosanct belief that this is the culture which believes in the welfare of the
world for all the living creatures and the one which considers the whole world
as a family Its premise is ldquoिाता भकि पतरो अहि पकथवयrsquo -the culture that considers
the earth to be the mother And when the Bharat Bhumi becomes self-sufficient
it ensures the possibility of a prosperous world Indiarsquos progress has always
been integral to the progress of the world He gave a clarion call for Aatma
Nirbhar Bharat or Self-Reliant India Movement
To provide relief to the business additional working capital finance of 20
per cent of the outstanding credit as on 29th February 2020 in the form of a term
loan at a concessional rate of interest would be provided This would be available
to units with up to Rs25 crore outstanding and turnover of up to Rs100 crore
whose accounts are standard The units would not have to provide any
guarantee or collateral of their own The amount would be 100 per cent
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 422
guaranteed by the Government of India providing a total liquidity of Rs3 lakh
crore to more than 45 lakh MSMEs
After taking the Cabinet approval on 20052020 the Department of
Financial Services issued Operational Guidelines for the scheme on 23052020
and the Emergency Credit Line Guarantee Scheme (ECLGS) Fund was
registered on 26052020 In a short period of about one-and-a-half month
noticeable progress has been achieved in identifying units sanctioning as well
as disbursing of loans to MSMEs
New front-loaded special refinance facility of Rs30000 crore was
sanctioned by the National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development
(NABARD) during COVID-19 to RRBs and cooperative banks This special
facility is expected to benefit three crore farmers consisting of mostly small and
marginal farmers in meeting their credit needs for post-harvest and kharif sowing
requirements When kharif sowing was already on its full swing Rs2487687
crore out of Rs30000 crore was disbursed as on 672020 out of this special
facility
The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in reverse migration of urban
migrantspoor in the country The urban migrants stay in slumsinformal
settlementsunauthorised coloniesperi-urban areas to save cost on housing
They need decent rental housing at affordable rate at their work sites
In order to address this need the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs
has initiated Affordable Rental Housing Complexes (ARHCs) a sub-scheme
under the Pradhan Mantri AWAS Yojana-Urban (PMAY-U) This will provide
ease of living to urban migrantspoor in industrial sector as well as in non-formal
urban economy to get access to dignified affordable rental housing close to their
workplace

SHRI TEJASVI SURYA (BANGALORE SOUTH) Hon Speaker at the outset
I wish to thank the hon Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji for effectively
handling the COVID-19 pandemic
By taking speedy and seemingly harsh measures prioritising the health of
the citizens of the country PM Modi Ji has ensured that India has one of the
lowest COVID-19 deaths per million population An early lockdown called by the
PM potentially saved upto 70000 lives and more than 29 lakh cases While
India stayed indoors and obeyed the Prime Ministerrsquos call he constituted the
PMCARES Fund for supplying ventilators and improving the health infrastructure
of the country After India entered the unlock stage Prime Minister Modi
unveiled a slew of reforms in the form of the Atmanirbar Bharat Scheme to
mitigate the economic hardship faced by MSMEs street vendors migrant
labourers and practically every other citizen Similarly the PM Garib Kalyan Ann
Yojana ensured that no citizen would go hungry despite the country experiencing
the worst global pandemic in a century
My State Karnataka under the leadership of hon Chief Minister Shri BS
Yedurappa has also managed to control the pandemic effectively True to its
tag of being the Tech Capital of the country my city Bengaluru utilized
technology and implemented unique solutions to assist citizens during the
lockdown and beyond
Soon after the lockdown was announced we set up a Bengaluru South
MP Coronavirus Task Force with the help of more than 4000 dedicated
volunteers to attend to citizensrsquo emergency requirements The Task Force
volunteers are available 247 on the number 99464 99464 We formed area-
wise WhatsApp groups to assist senior citizens pregnant women migrant
workers and other distressed people during the lockdown period They
extended all non-COVID medical support in the form of assistance in procuring
medicines and groceries delivering food packets to the needy and also feeding
stray dogs They also provided free and compassionate psychological
counselling The Task Force also tied up with cab aggregator Ola to provide
free taxi rides to hospitals for non-COVID medical emergencies
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 426
During the lockdown period the MP Coronavirus Task Force handled
5000 individual requests provided 2600 free Ola cab rides to hospitals served
450000 meals served to underprivileged sections and migrant workers and
handed out 35000 free ration kits for the migrants and needy
Bengaluru further proved its credentials of being the startup capital of the
country when we established the Home Line what is possibly Indiarsquos first
WhatsApp bot-enabled e-commerce platform
The Home Line was a phone number (080 61914960) accessible both by
call and WhatsApp set up for the home delivery of essentials from your nearest
grocer or medical store in Bengaluru We brought together 30 competing
startups from Bengaluru mapped every retailer in the city and unleashed about
10000 delivery executives to take essentials to the doorsteps of citizens Using
Cloud Calling system of Kaleyra call center employees of (24)7ai working for
the Home Line would note the order for groceries or medicines and generate a
ticket The ticket would be passed on to a delivery executive from Dunzo
Swiggy Rapido Shadowfax or House Joy The delivery executive would
proceed to purchase the items from the grocer or medical store located closest
to the caller and deliver the items
During the lockdown period the Home Line of Bengaluru received 17059
orders on WhatsApp and 2137 orders placed on phone It enabled the delivery
of 14049 orders and served 30000 people in Bengaluru
Bengaluru finally opened up during the Unlock phase and we noticed an
increase in the number of daily cars We once again came up with a technology
solution to handle the outbreak called COVID Raksha
COVID Raksha can be accessed by phone and WhatsApp by using the
same helpline number 080 6191 4960 Citizens can report COVID-19
symptoms enquire about test request for doctor assistance and expert advice
and seek guidance on turning positive and take initiative to reach out for urgent
care It also facilitates the shifting of patients in distress to hospitals across
Bengaluru
The Office of the MP partnered with Swasth Project Stepone Kaleyra
Fortis Hospitals (24)7ai ACT Grants Cartoon Mango SRL Diagnostics Hey
Doc Pharmeasy Portea Medical ITW Consulting and Spykke Technologies to
power the platform
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 427
Through COVID Raksha (as on 10th September) we have answered
10700 calls from citizens on the coronavirus infection and conducted 3465
sessions on WhatsApp We have completed 1698 triaging of symptoms on
Swasth and facilitated 582 hospital transfers The COVID Raksha so far has
handled 96 advanced emergency cases and provided life-saving care to citizens
in Bengaluru
With this hon Speaker I would like to thank citizens for enabling us to
serve them I also would like to thank the Prime Minister once again for showing
exemplary leadership during such times Together we will fight this pandemic

SHRI PC MOHAN (BANGALORE CENTRAL) Hon Speaker Sir thank you
for allowing me to participate in the discussion under Rule 193
regarding COVID-19 pandemic in the country
The latest data shows that 54 lakhs 620 cases confirmed cases and
around 86752 deaths and 4303044 patients have already been cured as
on today
Sir India is the second largest democracy in the world with the population
of more than 135 crore In such a big country to enforce a lockdown and prevent
people to stop their daily activities and business is not a matter of joke It is
known to all of us
Even then our Union Government under the leadership of Shri Narendra
Modi ji has taken very effective steps to impose the lockdown to protect people
As a Prime minister of the country he has taken a very bold step He did not
think twice about the ill effects of the economic situation caused by lockdown
He gave top priority to save the lives of people of the country He took the people
of the country into confidence by interacting with them frequently through the
National media and lsquoMann Ki Baatrsquo programmes I congratulate the hon Prime
Minister for his bold initiatives And I am thankful to the people of the country for
showing their respect and honor the words of the hon Prime Minister
ldquoIn a landmark global achievementrdquo India has overtaken the US to
become No1 in terms of coronavirus recoveries accounting for close to 19 per
cent of the total global recoveries It is because of the great sacrifice done by
the healthcare service providers
In order to protect the people and save the life of covid-19 affected people
both Government hospitals and private health care centers in the country
particularly in Karnataka have done great services The doctors nurses and all
the staff including assistances worked on war footing day in and day out They
put their lives at stake to rescue the affected people from the coronavirus They
are the real warriors I am thankful to all the corona warriors for their great
service for the nation
This is reflected in the Government Response Stringency Index measured by
Oxford University which says that India enforced one of the most stringent
lockdowns

CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats) test achieves the
highest accuracy levels than the traditional RT-PCR tests It takes quicker turnaround time
and less expensive equipment and better ease of use
With these words I conclude my speech Thank you Sir

SHRI RAM MOHAN NAIDU KINJARAPU (SRIKAKULAM) Thank you hon
Speaker Sir for giving me the opportunity to speak on the discussion on COVID-
19 pandemic in the country
First of all I would like to pay my tribute and pass on my condolences to
the families of all the doctors nurses health workers police and to all those
who have worked on a frontline and have lost their lives due to COVID-19
pandemic I would like to thank the hon Minister of External Affairs Dr
Subrahmanyam Jaishankar Ji who has helped in bringing back people who
were stranded outside India and I would also like to thank all the State
Governments who have helped in bringing migrants of Andhra Pradesh back to
their homes I would also like to thank all the MPs who have worked
tremendously in their constituencies during the crisis Right now they are
fulfilling their constitutional duties in the Parliament While we are discussing
this the COVID-19 cases have passed the 54-lakh mark with as many as 92605
new cases reported today The country has lost around 87000 lives in the
pandemic
My State Andhra Pradesh has seen a total of 8218 new cases today and
the total confirmed cases in the State is 617776 The Statersquos tally is the second
highest after Maharashtra My constituency Srikakulam has seen total of
30000 cases and 280 deaths till now
Hon Speaker Sir this discussion on COVID-19 should have been taken
up during the Budget Session when we were aware that our country would have
to face this pandemic Having a discussion at that time would have helped us
formulate our response to tackle the crisis more effectively
I would also like to commend the efforts of the Government of India and
its bold if not timely decision to implement the most comprehensive lockdown
anywhere in the world Being one of the most populated countries in the world
we needed it at that time to calibrate our responses to tackle the global crisis
and also to save our economy We also needed it to upgrade the health
infrastructure and increase the capacity of beds to meet the demand that might
arise due to this pandemic
------------------------

Sir after six months of the lockdown when we are in the 4th stage of the
unlock process now the question then arises did we use the time on our hands
effectively and efficiently
If we look at the Annualised figures of GDP for April-June quarter then
the scenario becomes more dire
India -75 per cent
UK -599 per cent
Germany -33 per cent
USA -317 per cent
Japan -278 per cent
China -546 per cent
If we look at quarter-over-quarter GDP growth between April-June 2020
over January-March 2020
India -2928 per cent
UK -204 per cent
Germany -97 per cent
USA -909 per cent
Japan -78 per cent
China -115 per cent
During an interaction of the hon Prime Minister with the Leaders of the
Parliamentary Parties on 8th April 2020 I had suggested that in order to come
out of this lockdown and protect our economy a stimulus package to the tune
of at least 10 per cent of the GDP needs to be announced This was accepted
by the hon Finance Minister and she announced a package in the same line on
12th May 2020
Of Rs 20 lakh crore stimulus package announced nearly 50 per cent of
it is in the form of liquidity measures to help banks and NBFCs to increase
lending business to stimulate growth While demand was subdued due to
COVID-19 situation banks and NBFCs were also reluctant to lend due to
potential NPA concerns Therefore the stimulus package announced for various
MSMEs and small businesses was also not in the form of grants but in the form
of loans food supply for migrant labourers and some infrastructural support
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 439
The actual expenditure of the Government is negligible with most burden on the
RBI and institutions like NABARD etc
The Government has also planned to tap construction workers fund
mineral fund and compensatory fund etc The Government has just recycled its
schemes and allocations already counted for in the budgetary allocations As
part of the COVID-19 package of Rs 54 lakh crore package announced for
MSMEs the actual cost to the Government is estimated at Rs 25000 crore only
For this as I have suggested previously the Government should review
its capital and revenue expenditure plans and classify them under three heads
as critical essential and desirable The one which is being required and is
urgent is critical the one which is being required but not urgent is essential
and the one which is not being required and also not urgent is desirable The
Government should delay the expenditure that is not critical and divert that
amount towards the second stimulus package
We are all facing the same storm but we are not sailing in the same boat
While some sectors have prospered during these pandemic times others such
as construction travel restaurant MSMEs across all the verticals have
suffered the most
If you look at the employment report -- recently released by CMIE it states
that during the April-July period about 19 million salaried people lost their jobs
in India While salaried jobs are not easily lost but once lost they are also far
more difficult to retrieve
The package needs to be focussed on providing financial support to those
industries which see the largest loss in employment so that they have the funds
to rehire or save the jobs of their employees So the financial support and
stimulus package need to be directed to support the most vulnerable people and
businesses
While unemployment number is increasing the businesses are also
facing shortage of labour which is becoming the cause for a concern We need
to figure out a way to get the right people to the right place in order to kick start
the economic activity For this I suggest that the migrant labourers be provided
some incentives to get back to their work sites They should also be provided
some travel incentives increased healthcare facilities at labour camps to handle
COVID infections and mobile ration cards etc
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 440
During the lockdown period we have seen many gains in terms of
reduction in the levels of pollution better sanitation and hygiene and that needs
to be sustained
These measures would surely bring economy back on track in some time
However for the welfare of the people I would like to mention a few points
Under the Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Yojana insurance cover will be provided
to 2212 lakh health care providers including public healthcare providers and
private hospital staff The insurance provided will be above any other insurance
cover being availed by the beneficiary and does not require any additional
registration The premium for it will be borne by the Ministry of Health and Family
Welfare The insurance scheme was operationalised on March 30 and will be in
force till September 2020 which is extended for a further period of time of 180
days The claims of these workers should be processed quickly The police
officials who are doing their duties during these Corona times have no
insurance So the Government should introduce a similar kind of a scheme for
them as well
After the COVID-19 pandemic fishermen are in dire need of assistance
When the lockdown was announced many fishermen were in the high seas and
when they came back there were no traders and the supply chains were
crashed It resulted in the severe loss of income to the fishermen We are still in
the middle of the pandemic and the demand of fisheries is still low and therefore
they are struggling hard to meet their day to day needs As part of the
Atmanirbhar Bharat package Rs 20000 crore has been allocated to Pradhan
Mantri Matsya Sampada Yojana but it does not contain any provision for
financial assistance to the hard hit fishermen The fishermen are not even
included in PM-KISAN Scheme which they have demanded for so long I request
the Government to constitute a Fishermen Welfare Fund and sanction a special
grant to formulate schemes related to providing compensation during this tough
time Andhra Pradeshrsquos economy is significantly dependent on fisheries and
fishermen and even Andhra Pradesh has significantly contributed in the total fish
production in India
Srikakulam is also a major source of outmigration of fishermen and other
migrant workers and has recently witnessed all the migrants returning to home
especially from Veraval in Gujarat and also from Chennai The unemployment
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 441
among them has increased the job demand under MNREGA and it is the highest
ever after 2007 They need job and wages to meet their day-to-day needs very
badly The Gareeb Kalyan Rojgar Abhiyaan has been introduced to provide
livelihood to migrants who are back home in 116 districts in 6 States of India but
Srikakulam has not been included in spite of being a backward district In fact
not even one district of Andhra Pradesh has been included Andhra Pradesh has
seven backward districts out of total of 13 districts
The number of COVID-19 cases could go up in Srikakulam due to limited
availability of hospitals and COVID-care centres Therefore due to shortage of
beds patients with mild symptoms are sent back to their homes I request to
grant Rs 50 crore from PM CARES Fund to establish new COVID care centre
in the district
Under the Pradhan Mantri Street Vendorrsquos Atmanirbhar Nidhi Scheme
(PM SVANidhi Scheme) only the street vendors of urban local bodies are
included But in Srikakulam in the State of Andhra Pradesh many fish vendors
especially women work at the rural places as well If they can also be included
it would be better
With this I thank you for giving me this opportunity to speak

DR SUJAY VIKHE PATIL (AHMEDNAGAR) Thank you Sir for giving me a
chance to speak in this very important discussion on the outbreak of Corona
Pandemic in India Sir today as I stand to speak on this issue I would like to
begin with paying my tributes to the Corona warriors which include doctors
healthcare workers sanitation workers police staff and everyone who has
strengthened our fight against this virus
I would like to place on record my appreciation and gratitude to our Prime
Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji who has led from the front and with his decisive
leadership we have been able to successfully fight this battle I also thank Dr
Harshvardhan Ji for spearheading the efforts of the Ministry of Health and Family
Welfare
It is pertinent to note that we are currently facing a crisis which has
affected every single person and has brought not only the country but the whole
world to a standstill but our Government has been taking decisive steps at
regular intervals to ensure that every section of the society is benefited
Decisions like Atma Nirbhar Package of Rs20 lakh crore or PM Garib Kalyan
Yojana which has benefited more than 80 crore people are testaments to our
effective governance
Sir the Opposition has been regularly criticizing the decision of lockdown
instead of supporting the government in the fight against Corona It has been
estimated that this decision prevented approximately 14 lakh to 29 lakh cases
and 37000 to 78000 deaths
Further these four months were utilised to create additional health
infrastructure enhance human resource and produce within India critical
elements such as PPEs N-95 masks and ventilators A case in point is increase
in dedicated isolation beds around 363 times and dedicated ICU beds above
246 times to what existed in March 2020
Whereas there was no indigenous manufacturing of PPE with the
requisite standards at that point in time we are now self-sufficient and in a
position to even export the same
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 444
Sir I have few suggestions and recommendations
1 COVID-19 Fund
Under the National Health Mission the Government had in April 2020
announced significant investments to the tune of Rs15000 crores for India
COVID-19 Emergency Response and Health System Preparedness Package
The funds sanctioned will be utilized for immediate COVID-19 Emergency
Response (amount of Rs7774 crores) and rest for medium-term support (1-4
years) to be provided under mission mode approach
For my Ahmednagar Lok Sabha constituency a fund of about Rs 16 crore
has come under the National Health Mission There are two things regarding
that Firstly they have different provisions for purchase of equipment beds and
everything but as of now the situation is such that availability of beds are very
less even if we put an order regarding central oxygen system or facilities you
have advised along with no provision for a rental allowance For example if a
hospital is taken and the hospital has the entire facility of beds central oxygen
system and ventilators the District Collector or the District Administration does
not have funds to give for that hospital
2 Involvement of Member of Parliament
It has been more than 3 months since this package was announced and
even when its Centrally Sponsored it is my personal experience that the
concerned Member of Parliament is not taken into confidence regarding the
utilization of these funds The entire control has been vested with the Collector
who is already overburdened with several other obligations
I am a neurosurgeon and if representatives with specialized medical
knowledge are included while deciding the disbursement of funds under this
package it will ensure a holistic and better decision making process
3 RT - PCR Test
I really appreciate that we have increased the testing I would only make
a few suggestions as to what I have realized in this RT-PCR machine There are
two systems One is open and one is closed There has been increased cases
of variability in testing with negative showing as positive and positive showing
as negative due to the kits being used in an open-based system of PCR That
is very clear evidence that I found in my lab My recommendation would be that
in districts which do not have RT-PCR labs and private labs are available the
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 445
government should provide free kits on the lines of government hospitals to
ensure free investigation by private labs because we cannot bear the cost of the
kit but we are ready to bear the cost of the technicians the electricity etc So
private labs could be wilfully coming forward to do these tests for free
4 Problems being faced due to huge Indian population in fight against COVID-
19
The large Indian population does pose challenges in terms of health
service provision
However in the context of Covid-19 India has two socio-demographic
features that confer advantage First we have a demographically young
population which is better protected against severe illness than older
populations Second nearly two-thirds of India is rural The virus spreads more
slowly in rural areas than in urban areas due to less crowd density shorter
distances that most people commute to work and more open spaces It is
necessary however that we address the need of population stabilisation
through a broad range of strategies
5 Incentives for health workers dealing directly with Corona like doctors nurses
health workers like ASHA etc
There are two types of incentives (a) removal of the hurdles and
grievances that are impeding their work or endangering them (b) positive
incentives for boosting their morale and enhancing their performance
6 Need for self-sufficiency in API Production
From being reasonably self-reliant-both in drug formulation and API
production in the early 1990s India had become mostly import-dependent in
API Last year India imported roughly Rs50000 crore worth of APIs and other
intermediaries that go into production of finished formulations About Rs31740
crore worth of these were from China alone accounting for two-third of API
imports Of the top 20 imported APIs amounting to Rs3610 crore 68 per cent
were from China For production of several medicines import intensity from
China is alarmingly high
In case of streptomycin used in treating tuberculosis (TB) and other
infections nearly all imports are from China In case of penicillin another critical
antibiotic 90 per cent of imports are from China And 70 per cent of rifampicin
API (used for TB treatment) 63 per cent of erythromycin API (an antibiotic used
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 446
especially for respiratory infections) 82 per cent of glutamic acid and its salts
(treatment for nerve disorders) 80 per cent of aniline and its salts (for antioxidant
formulations) are imported from China
This Pandemic has brought an opportunity for India to regain its status as
a self-sufficient manufacturer of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients
7 Action against China at the International Level
China has not only created tension at the border but there are also strong
evidences to state that the COVID-19 virus is a lab made virus Chinese
virologist Dr Li-Meng Yan has claimed that coronavirus COVID-19 was made in
a Wuhan laboratory Dr Li-Meng Yan who was associated with Hong Kong
School of Public Health had been researching on the coronavirus for a long
time The Chinese virologist claimed that during her research she came across
that coronavirus was developed in laboratory in China
With these recommendations and suggestions I thank the government
and conclude my speech

SHRI NAMA NAGESWARA RAO (KHAMMAM) Hon Speaker Sir I thank you
for the time allotted to put across my views on the Bill
Whereas the Bill seems to be well intended some of the areas either not
so clear or missing
Policing in India is a State subject which means there are large variations
across the States This includes forensic science facilities as well
-----------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 454
In a large number of cases the results of forensic science aspects are to
be explained jointly with the observations relating to forensic medicine as in case
of poisoning firearm wounds suicides etc Hence it is important that studies in
Forensic medicines are also given due emphasis A burning case in point is the
case of alleged suicide by a Bollywood film actor being investigated and
discussed in media
Further the regional aspects are also to be given due consideration
Every region or State has its own issues and problems be it economic social
and cultural or such other factors or a combination of factors Therefore specific
studies are important and may be promoted even by the institutes of national
importance
There are other institutions of State and Centre that are also engaged in
similar works These institutions academic research centres laboratories and
other field units also need to be developed and integrated with these central and
State universities This will create synergy among them make the outcome
qualitative and more purposeful Such an arrangement will also make our effort
more efficient and avoid duplication as well as highlight areas of focus
It is suggested to create a knowledge-pool of the achievements of all such
institutions regional Central or belonging to States Such a sharing platform will
benefit all these organisations and keep them updated
To derive full benefit of the services of these institutions facilities for early
dissemination of knowledge is needed This will also benefit in identifying the
areas if studies to be given more focus or new areas to be studied
The State of Telangana has opened three regional Forensic Science
Laboratories This has not only made collection of evidence from the scene of
crimes faster but also saved evidences from destruction due to time gap
Further the early expert opinion has resulted in faster completion of
investigation of cases
Under the able and dynamic leadership of our CM of Telangana Shri KCR
garu the State police has brought various reforms in the Department for
providing better policing for the sake of people The State police are
implementing a number of Information Technology (IT) initiative that helped
police in detection and prevention of crimes in the State
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 455
Vacancies have been filled up and the police have come up with several
initiatives to engage with communities People are now bringing issues to the
notice of the police and throw up various facts social media etc and their
grievances are being addressed They are delivering round the clock revises for
crime prevention women safety and all other aspects There have been no
extremists and Maoist activities since the formation of the State
The State Government has made a provision for a sum of Rs 5852 crore
for police Department in the financial year 2020-21 Telangana received special
incentive funds of Rs 769 crore under modernisation scheme of the Centre due
to efficient implementation of police reforms in the State
These achievements show that modernisation of Police Force of the State
is important and the most important factor to strengthen the internal security
Hence the Centre should allocate more and more funds under this scheme and
continue the scheme as modernisation is an ongoing process Also the
allocation under the scheme be made on the basis of need of the State than the
population base so that the State police is able to achieve its modernisation
targets early and people are benefited
The most important aspect is how to take the benefits to the ground
Modalities may be developed to lay a mechanism for sharing of benefits by
stakeholders as early as possible Hon Police Commission reports that even
judicial guidelines could hardly be implemented due to various factors as stated
above Hence it is important that the State police is strengthened and
modernised
Our society is fast changing and so are the needs and aspirations of
people Rapid advancement of technology is making the changes even faster
Hence the needs modes and ways of policing are to be dynamic In this
background such academic institutions are to be dynamic in their approach with
respect to academics and research Only then they can meet the needs of the
society and keep pace with the change Hence keeping the management able
for change is of utmost importance Otherwise studies and efforts may become
irrelevant
Thank you

SHRI SUNIL DATTATRAY TATKARE (RAIGAD) Mr Speaker Sir after the 2611 terrorist

a coastal area I would request the Minister to kindly sanction the above

SHRI ABDUL KHALEQUE (BARPETA) Sir I have two observations to point out First the
passage of the Bill upgrades the existing Raksha University under the Government of
Gujarat which was established in 2009 and second it is only converting a State university
into a Central University
I do not see any reason why the Government is in a hurry to upgrade a State
university which is only a decade old whereas so many State institutions of higher
education across the country are demanding upgradation There are so many autonomous
and Central Government institutes of higher education One of the recent additions in 2018
was National Rail And Transportation Institute in Vadodara Why is the Government only
considering to establish premier institutions in Gujarat alone There are so many States
with lesser number of higher educational institutes We cannot put everything into one
basket There is a need to create a balance all over the country as far as education is
concerned Establishing such institutes also leads to development of that particular area
I can understand that Gujarat is the home State of Modi ji and Amit Shah ji but there are
other States too As one of the representatives of the people of North-East I hereby
demand the establishment of a campus of the university in Assam
I have no reason to hide the fact that the very name lsquoRashtriya Raksha Universityrsquo
is a bit deceiving The Rashtriya Raksha University is proposed to be a multi-disciplinary
university to create new knowledge through research and collaboration with different
stakeholders and help to fulfil the need for a pool of trained professionals with specialised
knowledge and new skill sets in various wings of policing criminal justice system and
correctional administration The university will have a linkage with world class universities
in other countries which will be on need basis for the purpose of exchange of contemporary
research academic collaboration course design technical knowhow training and skill
development

SHRI POCHA BRAHMANANDA REDDY (NANDYAL) Sir this Bill seeks to
provide for the establishment of the Rashtriya Raksha University and declares
the University to be an institution of national importance The Bill also repeals
the 2009 Act Our Party welcomes this initiative
There is an urgent need for institutions to provide police and security
services with the necessary academic knowledge professional skills and
community orientation At present there are only a few institutions in the
country which provide the environment infrastructure and specialisation for
imparting education in police sciences

शरी अधीर रजन चौधरी (बहरामपर) सर ि बोिना चाहता ह ा The Bill only covers close-
out netting The current Bill fails to provide other kinds of bilateral netting
practices for example netting by novation Netting by novation is a contractual
agreement whereby parties agree that all contracts between themselves will be
consolidated into a single contract as soon as each new contract is entered into
It reduces counterparty credit risk by affecting a discharge of each individual
foreign exchange contract or other obligation as it is netted If the Bill is intended
to truly widen the scope of the netting practice in India it could have included
methods such as netting by novation and payment netting
My second point is that there is potential for money-laundering and tax
avoidance Netting is allowed for transfer of money without actual transfer of
money Therefore netting becomes a potential bidding ground for trade-based
money-laundering and tax avoidance practices How will the Bill help in
regulating and offsetting this risk
Thirdly it is an overambitious move It is claimed by the Principal
Economic Adviser Shri Sanjeev Sanyal in an interview that this Bill will act as an
enabler to the corporate default swap market This in turn will help lay the
necessary condition to set up a liquid Indian corporate bond market CDS is not
a prerequisite for setting up a corporate bond market and there are major issues
with regard to regulation and supervision of both the CDS and bond market
which will not be mitigated by the introduction of this legislation What provision
has the Government made to address the regulatory issues arising due to the
legislation
My last point is about the impact on bank capital This Bill may not have a
significant impact on the capital of banks The ratio of market trade to the loan
book of public sector banks is not so high as to generate considerable capital-
saving from bilateral netting Thank you

DR UMESH G JADHAV (GULBARGA) Thank you Speaker Sir for giving
me this opportunity to speak in this august House on COVID-19 pandemic that
is facing the country
As we all know the first case of COVID-19 was found in Kerala on January
30 2020 and the first death due to COVID-19 was reported on March 11 2020
in Kalaburagi district of Karnataka which falls in my parliamentary constituency
It was marked as the countryrsquos first fatality from the global pandemic
The first ever COVID-19 case was recorded in China last year Since then
the virus has spread around the world and in January 2020 it was declared as
pandemic by the World Health Organisation
I would like to tell the House that a research had revealed that India may
record nearly 13 lakh COVID-19 positive cases by mid-May if the spread of virus
is not contained by taking stringent measures and implementing restrictions
India witnessed 101139 COVID-19 cases by 18th May 2020 Initially it was
considered that India was dealing well in containing the number of COVID-19
cases by maintaining social distance and thereby a constricted transmission of
the disease during lockdown period
I would like to say that both the Central Government and the State
Government of Karnataka are working intensely to keep the number of COVID-
19 positive cases minimum The Government is taking all necessary steps ndash by
involving public medical associations nurses NGOs police forces including
paramilitary forces - to combat the challenges and threat posed by this growing
invisible pandemic war The earnest efforts on the part of the frontline workers
especially the doctors nurses healthcare staff sanitation workers police
personnel volunteers with the active support of people of India have resulted in
making the treatment of the patients possible and thereby in controlling this
pandemic
In March we started with only few testing centres performing less than
100 tests per day On 18th September India has conducted over 1000000 tests
in a single day and is having as many as 1764 COVID-19 testing laboratories

The Union Government has announced a Rs20 lakh crore recovery
package to revive our economy A small component of this was allocated to the
Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act as well
I would like to mention that NREGA has offered opportunity to the migrant
workers who were forced to return to their homes jobless to earn their
livelihood In Kalaburagi district more than 55000 migrant workers who were
working in the Capital and other major cities returned home and around 12 lakh
workers moved within the State From 1st April 2020 to 15th September 2020
under NREGA there has been a huge rise in creation of Job Cards and as many
as 98424 people have been enrolled for getting new Job Card Under
MGNREGA approximately 140750 families have been benefitted From 1st
April 2020 to 15th September 2020 4263404 man-days have been generated
This number itself shows how MGNREGA has brought changes in the livelihood
of many families
This pandemic has also seen a huge rise in the number of people who
have taken agriculture as the primary occupation for their livelihood In any case
agriculture is arguably the least affected sectors of the economy It is seen as
the only bright spot in an otherwise dismal economic state which is poised to
gain and is likely to lead the economyrsquos revival process
The bumper rabi harvest is a good sign but farm labour economy has been
adversely affected There has been a large-scale reverse migration of workers
from urban and rural work destinations This will at least in the short run add
workers to the rural work force
In the short run wages are likely to remain sticky and we will witness a
significant increase in demand for work under MGNREGA especially in source
areas which are invariably the poorest If implemented well MGNREGA can
paly an important role in making sure that workers find work and contribute to
improving agriculture sectorrsquos outlook
MGNREGA has another important role which becomes particularly crucial
in COVID-19 pandemic By adopting best practices it acts as a beacon for
establishing the terms of engagement for hiring labour in rural areas In making
an Atmanirbhar Bharat an additional Rs40000 crore has been allocated to
MGNREGA for creation of jobs in Indiarsquos hinterland Earlier in the Budget for
this financial year the Government had allocated Rs61000 crore to
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 362
MGNREGA Thus for the first time ever the total allocation made to MGNREGA
for any financial year comes to over Rs100000 crore
Finally the effectiveness of MGNREGA as a tool for post-COVID-19 rural
economic recovery will depend on three things
1 Whether the local administration is equipped to implement it as a
demand-driven programme
2 Whether village panchayats are well-equipped to take advantage of
it and
3 Whether useful assets are created that will boost local agrarian
economy
With this I would like to conclude my speech Thank you

SHRI DUSHYANT SINGH (JHALAWAR-BARAN) Hon Speaker Sir I thank
you for letting me participate in this discussion on ldquoCOVID-19 Pandemic in the
Countryrdquo under Rule 193
Firstly I would like to thank our hon Prime Minister for his vision and
leadership to drive the country through the pandemic I am sure Speaker Sir
the worst of the pandemic is behind us With declining growth of active cases
and fatality ratio the nation will emerge out stronger from the crisis
It is sad to know that till now more than 85000 people have died in the
country due to the COVID-19 pandemic But I would also like to mention that
India is one of the few countries in the world with lowest mortality rate below 4
per cent even when the mortality rate peaked in April I would like to mention
that in the month of May at the global level the mortality rate had peaked at
more than 7 per cent levels
It is due to the timely measures taken by our hon Prime Minister Shri
Narendra Modi that we have been able to maintain less than 3 of mortality
rate and have successfully continued to reduce the mortality rate below 2 per
cent levels today
Today in India the rate of growth of active cases has fallen to 07 per
cent we can soon expect the growth rate of active cases to fall down close to
zero per cent which is essentially known as ldquoFlattening of the curverdquo for active
cases India has done appreciable job in reducing mortality rate as compared to
the developed economies of the West We all should unanimously appreciate
and laud the Prime Minister for his quick decisions and guidance for the country
It is really sad to see that some States being one of the most developed
States of the country Maharashtra is failing to reduce Test Positivity Rate below
20 per cent It is saddening to see one in every five persons tested testing
positive Many States have done commendable job in increasing testing and
maintaining lower test positivity rate and lower case fatality rate

Secondly we must appreciate the efforts made by doctors nurses para-
medical staff in such times In such difficult times the police forces bureaucrats
have been working overtime away from their family I bow down to them for their
service to the nation in such difficult times There have been a lot of NGOs
thousands of volunteers who have supported the efforts of Government in
checking the spread of COVID-19 virus
I have learnt that about 382 doctors have died on duty the country shall
forever be indebted to them for their service and sacrifice I request the
Government to acknowledge their sacrifice and provide them with appropriate
compensation for their service
Further I also thank all my colleagues from Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha
for their service to the people of their constituency the migrant workers and the
citizens of India during the lockdown
Speaker Sir in my constituency of Jhalawar-Baran along with the
Karyakartas of Bharatiya Janata Party our teams have distributed food packets
dry ration kits ayurvedic kaadha masks sanitizers and even footwear to
migrant workers irrespective of their cast and religion
In Baran district the Karyakarta of BJP have distributed 3700 ration kits
about more than 12 lakh cooked food packet 15000 people were distributed
ayurvedic kaadha We distributed about 32000 masks in socio-economically
backward regions of Baran district In Baran we even helped and supported the
migrant workers passing through on feet About 15000 cooked food packets
were distributed to the migrant workers and 300 pairs of footwear were
distributed
In Jhalawar district the BJP Karyakartas have distributed more than 2
lakh cooked food packets 27700 dry ration kits and 270 pairs of footwear to the
migrant workers
I thank the volunteer who all worked hard towards supporting the people
of Jhalawar-Baran

DR T SUMATHY (A) THAMIZHACHI THANGAPANDIAN (CHENNAI
SOUTH) Hon Speaker Vanakkam
COVlD-19 is an imported disease and self-inflicted disaster It was
originated in China and spread to all countries through humans only The first
COVID-19 positive case was identified in Kerala on 31 January 2020
Thereafter it started to rise through further arrival of foreign passengers and
their immediate contacts So the Government and everyone knew about the
veracity of COVID-19 by January and February 2020 itself No one can dispute
it
By the time that is 18 March 2020 the Union Government had decided
to stop all international passenger flights and banned the entry of anyone from
abroad almost an estimated 25 lakh passengers from abroad have entered and
dispersed across various States corners of India Thus the Coronavirus crisis
started in India a big blunder which could not be resolved till date
If the Government acted in time that is January or February and stopped
those arriving from abroad and isolated those arrived for a month or so then the
country might not get this virus entry into every corner of the country and the
common man might not be at a receiving end Due to lethargic and improperly
acts of the Government the virus spread across the country The Government
should shoulder the responsibility as it failed to act in time and now crushing the
common man who is vulnerable and unbearable to the situation It is not even
extending any sufficient relief to those in need Several households are facing
food scarcity I just leave it to the hon Members sitting in this august House to
understand and judge where when and how it went wrong to reach this
unbearable lockdown
The life of migrant labourers is beyond all levels of suffering The pictures
of the migrant workers leaving the cities by foot with their luggage in one hand
holding the children in other many young men carrying their aged mother or
father on their shoulders the small children walking along with their parents in
sweltering heat without chappals will be etched in our sad memories forever
------------------------

The ghastly images of migrant workers smashed by a goods train in
Maharashtra cannot be deleted from the dark pages of history which happened
due to the inefficiency and incompetence of the ruling Government
The Government at the Centre blaming the State Governments for their
grave mistakes has become a common phenomenon The ill effects and ground
reality due to COVlD-19 lockdown on the people of this country is still not
ascertained properly Barring the people who get a regular income monthly as
salary or pension all others are suffering a lot Out of the 138-crore population
100 crores are plunged into deep trouble People working as daily wage
labourers those working in unorganised sector farm workers migrant labourers
from various categories lorry tempo taxi and auto drivers domestic workers
have suffered severely due to this self-inflicted COVID-19 crisis
In India there are around one crore drivers who earn their livelihood
through driving vehicles from lorry bus car and auto rickshaws The five months
lockdown has destroyed their career beyond recuperation Those who had
borrowed loan from banks or private lenders for their taxis and autos were
unable to pay their loan dues They too have a family living in a single room
house with aged parents unmarried sisters wives and children We just cannot
imagine the difficulties faced by them during the lockdown period
All I want to say is that the Government has not applied its mind and have
not done enough homework to be in the state of preparedness and readiness to
fight COVlD-19 crisis The Government either failed to analyse the inputs
reaching from China and other countries when the COVlD-19 started there in
December or it is the blatant failure of intelligence and diplomats working in
China and abroad Nevertheless we had three full months of time to prepare
and plan to combat COVlD-19 but failed miserably to be prepared This is due
to the Governmentrsquos preoccupation to prepare for the extravaganza related to
the personal visit of US President during 23rd to 24th February 2020
Secondly when the entire world was busy in preparation to fight COVID-
19 the ruling Government was cunningly cleverly and keenly focused only on
dislodging the duly elected Government in Madhya Pradesh using unethical
means This greediness to derail the duly elected Government has made the
Government insane and insensitive to the early warnings of some senior MPs
and leaders of opposition parties and the Government continued to run
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 377
Parliament till 23rd March 2020 when the Government mission was successfully
accomplished a day before Madhya Pradesh Government was captured and
the very next day full lockdown was announced by the Prime Minister and it
came into effect all over the country without any thoughts on the people
especially the migrant workers That is why when COVID-19 started to spread
in India we did not have even testing kits with us or laboratories to check and
ascertain the COVlD-19 patients There was very low production of protective
gears PPEs masks gloves and we lagged far behind in the supply of sanitisers
too That is the reason why India could not respond effectively to fight against
Corona and the numbers got increased
In India regular testing started happening only in the first week of March
after the emergence of the first few cases Starting with just one laboratory the
Pune-based National Institute of Virology that was testing samples at that time
India now managed to have a network of more than 1100 laboratories that are
conducting these diagnostic tests More than two lakh samples are being tested
every day Considering the large population the penetration of testing is still
quite low Indiarsquos testing numbers per one million population are still low
compared to many other countries
The Government says that economy was badly affected during COVID-
19 lockdown Agreed But was our economy booming in the previous years of
this Government No It is getting bad to worse and worse to worst in the last
six years and has reached point of no return at the moment Today I have no
hesitation in saying that our countryrsquos economy is pushed a clear 20 years back
and it will take several years of herculean works to set it right and put it back
In this precarious condition the countryrsquos economy is reeling under
tremendous pressure and distress Our countryrsquos GDP will certainly show a
negative growth The humongous damage caused to our economy before and
after COVID-19 has pushed us to years backward It may take six years or more
for our country to reach the same position India was in 2013 That too if a steady
8-10 per cent growth in GDP is achieved in the next six years But as of now we
have -239 per cent GDP The internal debt of the country has crossed Rs 100
lakh crore This means we have already lost 12 years I wish the Government
do not commit any hara-kiri and also hope that there will be no more big
calamities or any self-inflicted catastrophe
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 378
On the financial front actually the Union government should have
convened a Special Session of Parliament to recalculate and recalibrate the
income possibilities and expenditure priorities as the already passed Budget is
by now unrealistic The Budget 2020-21 passed by Parliament looks
unachievable due to the loss of time and opportunities The priorities have
changed drastically after the COVlD-19 crisis The provisions made for many
projects could be modified postponed or withdrawn accordingly It is therefore
very important to have a Revised Budget 2020-21 with more emphasis on new
initiatives with adequate financial provisions to mitigate the issues and problems
encountered by the people aftermath of COVlD-19 lockdown crisis It is
therefore my humble request to the hon Prime Minister and the Finance
Minister to convene a Special Session of Parliament and make suitable changes
in Budget 2020-21 and make it practically achievable
Government of India should openly announce the details of the trade and
economic deals bilateral treaties signed with China in the last six years and
explain to the people of our country why the Modi Government has signed such
deals with the brutal and treacherous country like China in the last six years in
spite of heavy opposition from nationalists from various corners of the country
The adamant behaviour of leaders of both countries fully know the
imminent danger and disadvantages faced by our country due to these treaties
and trade deals For whose benefit these deals and treaties are signed Order
for an independent authority to probe and find the intricacies of the trade deficits
and economic imbalances in these deals and treaties It is high time for the
Government to speak the truth with the common public Otherwise History will
punish the people who are responsible for this debacle beyond just words
The COVlD-19 crisis has left every profession and professional in the-
lurch be it a Doctor or Engineer or Lawyer a category of people who have
established their career and serving the society The medical practitioners and
their staff are the most affected and in fighting COVID-19 many in this medical
field have lost their invaluable lives The Engineering professionals and IT
professionals were affected very much due to the COVlD-19 lockdown
The COVID-19 crisis has worsened the life of genuine lawyers and their
clients who solely depends on justice to be delivered in time Justice delayed is
Justice denied Courts in India are paralyzed by COVlD-19 crisis and plagued
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 379
by the shortage of Judges The Union Law Ministry is on ldquoKumbhakarna Sleep
Moderdquo
There are 60000 cases pending in the Supreme Court and 45 lakh cases
in 25 High Courts in the country At the District and subordinate court levels the
number of pending cases stand at a shocking Rs 314 crore as of November
2019 27 lakh of these cases are less than years old 85 lakh are pending for
more than five years but less than 10 years and 85 lakh are over 10 year old
The COVlD-19 crisis has paralyzed and the lockdown has knocked down
the Judicial System and most of the genuine lawyers have literally knocked out
of jobs became incomeless clients shed tears of blood But as far as the Judges
and court staffs like Registrars Assistant Registrars Court Marshals etc are
concerned they enjoy a paid lockdown There is not a single penny loss though
they work just 20-30 per cent to their capacity and capabilities
COVID-19 has robbed the people three months of court proceedings and
genuine open court arguments In the absence of any personal interaction or
open court hearings the Registry departments of Courts have become the Demi
Gods and the Judges have literally turned into invisible Lords
The Indian judiciary is already suffering due to the shortage of judges
Nearly 40 per cent of sanctioned number of Judges are still unfilled
Unfortunately the Union Law Ministry and Ministerial people of State
Governments are sleeping as if heavens are not going to fall If the courts are
not functioning to its full potential the Government is least bothered of the
dangerous consequences of paralyzing of our Judicial System not working to
the fullest capacity and potential When everything is lost people look up on
Judiciary and Justice and if that Judicial System is not working to the desired
levels a kind of alleged Police excess and lawlessness in the society is
inevitable It is time to wake up or else expect a catastrophe Hope the top ranks
in the Government and Judiciary will discuss deliberate and come up with some
real solution to address this unprecedented lockdown in Judicial system
If the COVID-19 situation is not going to improve and if the Government
of India does not intervene next few months will witness that several lakh people
packing their baggage permanently back to India As per the recent data there
are about 15 crore NRls and 2 crore PlOs living all around the World The
COVID-19 may force at least one quarter of this 15 crore NRl population and
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 380
10 per cent of the 25 crore PIOs return to India which means at least 50 lakh
people who had a settled life would be unsettled and forced to come back
Countries like Australia Bahrein Bhutan Canada China Germany Italy
Kuwait Malaysia Nepal Netherlands New Zealand Nigeria Oman
Philippines Qatar Saudi Arabia Singapore South Africa Spain UAE UK and
USA have large NRl population While Australia Canada Fiji France Germany
Guyana Indonesia Israel Italy Jamaica Kenya Malaysia Mauritius Myanmar
Netherlands New Zealand Portugal Singapore South Africa Sri Lanka
Suriname Tanzania Thailand Trinidad and Tobago UK and USA have large
PlO population
The plight of those people who were to return to these countries to
continue their education business or professional work will not be permitted until
and unless COVlD-19 situation improves in India thereby causing enormous
stress and suffering to these people The government should find a remedial
solution to this crisis through the diplomatic routes Otherwise the life and career
of these people will be lost
COVID-19 crisis if not for a comprehensive drugvaccine to control the
spread of the virus would affect and alter the demography of the world countries
in the coming months Indian Diaspora is going to be the worst hit I urge the
Union Government to take all possible diplomatic and political administrative
steps to stop or reduce this Demographic relocation
The fishermen community in Tamil Nadu are one of the most affected
communities in the country due to the COVID-19 crisis and the unprecedented
and unplanned lockdown Already year after year the fishermen of coastal
Tamil Nadu were battered by natural calamities as well as from indiscreet
interference by the Sri Lankan counterparts The COVID-19 has completely
collapsed their livelihood Export of Fish and marine products has paralysed
beyond recuperation at this juncture
The coastal corridor in Tamil Nadu consists of 13 districts with 15 major
ports and harbours sandy beaches lakes and river estuaries Tamil Nadu has
a fishermen population of 2 million and the coast consists of three major fishing
harbours three medium fishing harbours and 363 fish landing centres
Unfortunately there have been several incidents of fighting for fishing rights
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 381
between Indian and Sri Lankan fishermen while fishing in the Palk Strait where India
and Sri Lanka are only separated by 12 nautical miles
Fishing has to be recognised at par with agriculture The fisher communities
suffer very much due to natural calamities like cyclone rough sea heavy rains heavy
floods hurricanes and tsunami They need waiving of their loans by Government
COVlD-19 has created a very bad situation for fishermen Governments at both
Centre and State together should provide Rs 5000 to about Rs 50000 to poor
fishermen in Tamil Nadu to mitigate the Coronavirus lockdown crisis
The continuous increase in the price of petroldiesel during the COVlD-19
crisis is like rubbing salt on the wounds People sufferings have reached
threshold levels I urge the Union Government to act with compassion and
common sense to reduce the escalating petroldiesel prices immediately It is
high time for the Government to reduce the petrol and diesel prices Otherwise
people will suffer from an unprecedented agony and pain
Indiarsquos COVlD-19 scenario is going from ldquobad to worserdquo stage to ldquoworse
to the worstrdquo stage and our hon Prime Minister is busy in feeding peacock
writing poems and continue his rhetoric speeches like his usual monthly Mann
Ki Baat It took 110 days for COVID-19 cases in India to reach one lakh while
just 59 days more to go past 10 lakhs Indiarsquos COVID-19 cases rose from 10
lakh to 20 lakhs in 21 days and 20 lakhs to 30 lakhs in just 16 days Indiarsquos
COVID-19 tally had crossed the 20-lakh mark on 7th August and went past 30
lakhs on 23rd August From 30 to 50 lakhs an addition of 20 lakh cases took just
three weeks At this current rate we can presume that by the end of September
Indiarsquos COVID-19 tally would easily cross 60 lakhs With the death toll increasing
steadily there is no way we could expect normalcy by October or November
There could be possibility to impose the lockdown once again till a vaccine to
curb COVlD-19 is discovered and distributed for public use Let us see the
further lsquoAct of Godrsquo is benevolent and merciful
COVID-19 has not spared anyone Even in the high-profile Ministers and
Members of Parliament are being affected Take the case of our Union Home
Minister He is the second most protected person in the country Only the
designated and approved individuals are allowed to meet him or come into any
kind of physical proximity with him Therefore the hon Home Minister getting
infected by COVID-19 and that too when the country needs him 247 he was
indisposed for several days It needs to be probed to ascertain if there is any
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 382
sabbatical move to curb the functioning of the all-powerful Minister l urge the
Government to initiate a fact-finding inquiry in this regard
On one side COVlD-19 has become the biggest health hazard and on the
other side the countryrsquos finance is shrinking like never before When the finances
drying up fast with considerable decline in the revenue the biggest problem for the
Government will be to fund its own projects in the coming months
Sir India is not an under developed country But it has been ruined by
underdeveloped minds This Government has lost its focus and attention and drift
away from economic priorities But it seems to be happy to focus more on divisive
religious ideologies and priorities This Government is not a game changer but only
a name changing Government It is either a slogging Government or just a
sloganeering Government This Government needs mentoring on all aspects of
politics economy and public welfare Electoral success will not guarantee a success
in governance too The real problem of the present Government is that if the pressing
issues are not addressed properly we might see a catastrophe in near future What
we need at the moment is a collective lsquoSave Indiarsquo Movement not a lsquoSlave Indiarsquo
Movement
I am really sorry to say that India has not only lost a golden opportunity to avert
the COVlD-19 but it has failed beyond the recovery in all other fronts It will be an
uphill task for the Government and the people of our country to come out of the
COVlD-19 crisis and its ill effects As far as Tamil Nadu is concerned we have great
people but miserable rulers at the moment Whatever happened we cannot stop now
The most pathetic thing is that people at the helm of affairs at the Government in
Tamil Nadu have indulged in corruption and siphoning of the amount designated for
COVID-19 crisis People are the ultimate sufferers due the inefficient Governments
at Centre and at State which has damaged the social fabric of the country including
Tamil Nadu This is the harsh and bitter truth The difficulties of the people may
increase manyfold once the lockdown is lifted but at the moment there is no way the
Government can lift the lockdown as the COVlD-19 cases in the country are
increasing in lakhs each day and the death toll is reaching one lakh
If this is the situation at the ground level today I cannot imagine how bad it
would turn out after two months when the cold weather and rains engulf the most of
the country COVID-19 crisis has left us with no other choice not because it is serious
but because of the incapable insensitive Governments at both Centre and State

SHRI B B PATIL (ZAHIRABAD) Sir Indias corona virus tally has raced past
the 54-lakh mark as more than 93337 COVID-19 cases were registered in the
last 24 hours according to the latest government figures
The data also underlines that the death toll in the nation has crossed the
86752 figure With a vaccine fit for public circulation still at least six to ten
months away the pandemic continues to ravage the country as
cases of cross-infection rise in the nation
While global health experts and scientists have been warning about the
onset of community transmission in India the Government still maintains that
there is no community spread in the country currently
Community transmission occurs when the source of the
contagion is not known ie when you cannot identify the clear source of
infection in a new community and the virus can infect anyone with no history of
contact with affected people and areas
In this scenario it becomes impossible to trace the original source of
infection back to a carrier
At this stage of the transmission where a person with no travel history or
any contact with infected people can also catch the infection
The national capital which was seemingly on a lsquopath of recoveryrsquo after
hitting the supposed peak in the month of July again started witnessing a sharp
rise in the corona virus cases from the last week of August till now
India has become the second worst affected nation by the COVID-19
pandemic We might soon overtake the USA in the total number of infections
next month
So far COVID-19 infections were heavily concentrated in large cities
located in Indias more prosperous States Delhi Mumbai Chennai among
others
The preparedness of the health system is much higher there than
elsewhere But recorded cases are now rising fast in Indias poorer States
where health services are very fragile
As the COVID-19 crisis absorbs their meager resources many public
health centers have stopped providing routine services
------------------------
Laid on the Table

Even child immunization has been discontinued for months in many
States Some States paint a grim picture of missing doctors unattended
patients broken equipment and stray dogs Where are people with routine
health problems supposed to go
Not to forget the issues faced by disabled persons be it Financial
difficulties lack of access to essential services and little to no
assistance from the government were and still is some of the difficulties that
persons with disabilities have been facing during the COVID-19 and lockdown
In India there is one doctor for every 1457 people as per the
countrys current population estimate of 135 billion which is
lower than the World Health Organisation norm of 11000 as per
the Government
The other reason for a possible mortality spike is that Indias
prolonged national lockdown (from late March until unlock phases
began in June) has destroyed millions of peoples livelihoods
Local lockdowns continue in many States and are likely to persist off and
on for months Unlike affluent countries India has very little to show by way of
a social security system except for food subsidies and some relief work under
the National Rural Employment Guarantee Act
The employment crisis has already hit poor households really hard
Extreme food insecurity during and after the lockdown
Just to cite one 78 percent of the 25000 respondents in the nationwide
CSDS (Centre for the Study of Developing Societies) survey said that they had
found it quite difficult or ldquovery difficult to feed their families during the
lockdown
Acute food insecurity is very likely to translate into higher mortality
For children it also means lasting damage from malnutrition
A recent survey of some 20000 returning migrant workers found that 60
per cent were unable to ensure two square meals for all members of the family
With the local economy in the doldrums except for farming casual
workers are heading for a prolonged period of underemployment and hunger
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 385
With tax revenue a fraction of normal levels State Governments are finding
it difficult to provide more than symbolic relief The Central Government is doing little
to help them
Without much help from the Centre our Telangana Government still has been
taking several measures to tackle COVID-19 cases in the State and provide relief to
the people of the State
The Central Government did launch some limited relief measures during the
national lockdown such as free food-grain rations of five kilograms per person per
month for two thirds of Indias population
But now it seems to have lost interest and left it to the State Governments to
handle the crisis Doctors and nurses critical of the Governments crisis response
have been muzzled or harassed as have many journalists been
Muddled statistics are routinely invoked to reassure the public that all is well
In its hurry to turn India into a viswaguru (world leader) the Modi
Government seems to have little patience for a humanitarian crisis Yet denying a
crisis is the surest way to make it worse There seems no one way of ending the
pandemic in sight We need to bring the focus on controlling the spread of the
disease It can only be achieved through a degree of herd immunity following the
social distancing norms and a safe and effective vaccine
The combination of all three measures will only be helpful in slowing down
the spread of the disease However delivering a vaccine is easier said than done
From timely regulatory approvals to devising protocols for inoculation in a country
like India with over 138 billion population there can be quite a few challenges
authorities will have to tackle
Several countries have already drawn up plans to ensure priority access to
any approved COVID vaccine for the essential workers like defence men healthcare
workers and teaching staff Many also feel that the elderly need to be inoculated
first Indian authorities too need to figure out the priority groups which would need
coverage first
Smoothening out delivery details like this would get rid of confusion and
provide more security to those who could be at a higher risk than others Phased
out vaccination drive instead of or random dosage would also work out for the best
in a country with a sizeable population like India
Steps taken by Telangana Government amid COVID-19
Movement Restrictions

DR KALANIDHI VEERASWAMY (CHENNAI NORTH) I thank you for allowing
this discussion which is very pertinent and appropriate at this time to discuss the
effects of COVID-19 and the Governmentrsquos handling of the situation
I would like to go through the unfolding events in a chronological manner
to remind the House of the events which unfolded The first news of COVID-19
as a global threat started in November 2019 from the news about a deadly
disease killing several people in Wuhan China The Chinese Government
announced lockdown in several regions progressively from 23rd January 2020
Other countries announced lockdown from as early as 12th March 2020
and our hon Prime Minister announced lockdown on 23rd March 2020 which
lasted for almost ten weeks The sudden announcement of the lockdown threw
the country in utter turmoil which created the following difficulties starvation
unemployment no access to medical supplies or help and migrant labour issues
apart from complaints of discrimination and police excesses
Sir I would like to point out that a father and a son duo (Bennix and
Jayaraj) were tortured to death by the Tamil Nadu Police and the opposition
parties and public had to stage huge protests to bring the perpetrators to justice
This shows the extent of police excesses which prevailed in Tamil Nadu
Sir the medical facilities in the initial days of the lockdown were so
unorganised that people were running from pillar to post to get admitted in the
hospitals despite Tamil Nadu having one of the most robust healthcare
infrastructures Thanks to leaders like Perarignar Anna Kalaignar Karunanidhi
and M G Ramachandran
The performance of the Governments both Central and the State were
closely monitored by our Party leader Thiru M K Stalin and constructive
suggestions were provided which were ignored The Chief Minister of Tamil
Nadu gave wrong information like the disease will come under control within a
few days which led to carelessness by the people which further fomented the
spread of infection In addition the deaths of several hundred people were
overlooked with the dead bodies being handed over to family which further
spread the disease among thousands
------------------------

Our leader Thiru M K Stalin with his call for ldquoOndrinaivaom Vaardquo which
means lsquoletrsquos unitersquo initiated the programme to feed almost one crore people and
supply medical supplies for the needy I under the able guidance of my leader
was able to feed several thousand families
Sir the efforts of the medical community has to be acknowledged and I
would like to pay homage to hundreds if not more of medical personnel who
lost their lives fighting this dreadful disease It is said that the Government is
unaware of the people who have laid their lives fighting this dreadful disease I
would like to urge the Government to list out the names and honour them their
efforts should not be forgotten as they are martyrs of this country
The Governmentrsquos support for the people has much to be desired The
so-called financial package was a joke with the people of this country The poor
entrepreneurs and MSMEs were all left in the lurch to fend for themselves which
led to starvation deaths migrant labourersrsquo deaths and closure of several
thousand MSMEs
Sir the National Disaster Management Authority headed by the hon
Prime Minister should look into the Report of the Task Force to Review DM Act
2013 which said that the present structure of various authorities under the DM
Act are not conducive for carrying out the tasks it has been mandated to perform
Perhaps if the PM had followed the report the disaster could have been better
managed I hope at least now with lessons learnt from our shortfalls the
Government would strengthen the National Disaster Management Authority as
the days ahead look gloomy with possibility of recurrence of these kinds of
biological attacks manmade or godsent and also with the precarious situation
with our neighbouring countries

SHRIMATI SUPRIYA SADANAND SULE (BARAMATI) According to the World
Bank Policy Note on Gender Dimensions of COVID-19 Pandemic such
pandemics are likely to affect women disproportionately more than men
If we talk about gender implications for health disease exposure in short
term is more for women because of following factors there is a larger share of
women in the health sector and as home and family caregivers which makes
them more exposed to contagion occupational sex-segregation also results in
different levels of exposure - women are more present in client-facing roles in
retail travel leisure and hospitality girls face constraints to access healthcare
services - as per the report by the WHO in India boys are more likely (and
sooner) taken to a qualified health professional for treatment than girls
The recommendation is that providing protective equipment and materials
and COVID-19 testing to higher-risk populations will be key to prevent their
contagion
As far as disruptions in reproductive health care services for women is
concerned the shift in resources towards addressing the public health
emergency can entail disruptions to key health services for women such as
reproductive health services There is for instance evidence of increase in
maternal mortality due to lack of critical resources in similar crises Pregnant
women can be particularly vulnerable in this context
The recommendation is that the pregnant women and maternity wards
require particular attention during the containment phase
Now I am coming to gender implications for education Given the fall in
incomes of households during a pandemic educational investment decisions
are likely to be altered Intra-household allocation of resources for schooling
might be redirected to boys over girls
The recommendation is that targeted measures needed for a section of
girls with no access to lCTs (Internet and Communication Technologies)
The disruption of services with school closures can lead to an increase in
the burden of care-related tasks - likely impacting girls more than boys This will
affect their ability to stay engaged in education in the longer term
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 394
Possibility of an increase in child labour and dropouts - during the
pandemic the pressure to contribute to the family income may also increase
with the tightening economic conditions leading to permanent school dropout
The recommendation is that financial incentive programs can help
encourage families to send children back to school when the confinement phase
is over
There are gender implications for employment and economic conditions
Women will likely experience a significant burden on their time given their
multiple care responsibilities as school closures and confinement measures are
adopted possibly leading to reductions in their working time and permanent exit
from the labour market The over-representation of women among the inactive
population and in vulnerable forms of work (such as informal employment or
domestic work) heightens their vulnerability to poverty in times of crisis
The recommendations are the effectiveness of social protection
responses to the crisis can be improved if these gender dimensions are
considered Social messaging as part of the emergency response can
contribute to a more balanced distribution of household responsibilities and
resources between men and women Cash transfer programs to the most
vulnerable groups including women only households (for example single
mothers with children widows or female farmers) will be necessary both as part
of the emergency response and in the longer term Specific programs to support
womens return to economic activity will also play a central role For example-
public works access to training and credit direct provision of productive inputs
to female farmers
Gender implications within household ndash as regards domestic violence an
increase in gender-based violence (and its severity and frequency) due to
confinement can be observed across countries The stretched capacity of
response services might reduce the protection and support available
contributing to a heightened perception of impunity among perpetrators
The recommendation is that protection and support services need to be
in place and increases in the capacity may be required Innovative solutions to
provide reporting mechanisms for women victims and to accommodate them
and their children will be necessary Social awareness will be key as well as
engaging informal support networks and health workers

There are some important concerns in the way the Centre handled the
pandemic The overall Indias response to the pandemic has been reactionary
instead of being preventive and precautionary The Centre failed to ensure sufficient
availability of PPEs to frontline healthcare professionals NGOs and State
Governments responded better to the needs of citizens than the Centre For
example as part of its efforts to ease distress caused by COVID-19 the Pratibha
Foundation in association with the Yashaswini Samajik Abhiyaan has distributed
protective masks hand gloves hand sanitizers and PPE (Personal Protective
Equipment) kits to healthcare personnel at the forefront including police officers
Foundation also aided the needy households who are strapped of their daily wage
income by providing them with basic necessities food ration and served prepared
food daily to people stranded at the Daund railway station Pune
Until mid-July 2020 there were only two laboratories in India to test and certify
quality of Body-Coveralls for COVID-19 In an Unstarred Question on PPE suits
(QNo935 on 18092020) the Centre acknowledged that as of April 2020 there
were only two laboratories in the country which have the facilities as well as
necessary approvals for conducting tests on Body Coveralls (PPE) required for
COVID-19 These are South India Textiles Research Association (SITRA)
Coimbatore and Defence Research amp Development Establishment (DRDE) Gwalior
The Tests and Certifications of Body Coveralls (PPE) conducted at these two
laboratories in India are the only officially recognized ones
It was not until 16th July 2020 that 9 other testing facilities were announced
Such lack of sufficient facilities to test PPEs could have contributed to the delay in
PPE availability to healthcare workers The High-Level Group on Health Sector
constituted by the Fifteenth Finance Commission in May 2018 headed by Dr
Randeep Guleria Director AIIMS recommended shifting health from the State to the
Concurrent List During the times of a pandemic like COVID-19 effective
coordination between Centre and the States inter-state coordination is important to
respond effectively to the pandemic To enable this and to ensure a more active
responsible role for itself the Centre can consider shifting health subject from the
State List to the Concurrent List in the Seventh Schedule of the Constitution
The Fifteenth Finance Commission High-Level Group on Health Sector and
World Bank met on 21st May 2020 To improve the health response mechanisms in
India the World Bank recommended focus on quality of care centrally sponsored
schemes increasing per capita health spending among others Given that COVID-
19 primarily affects the respiratory system it stressed that infectious diseases like
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 396
tuberculosis need attention What suggestions and comments made during this
meeting has the Centre included in its COVID-19 response plan
India COVID-19 Emergency Response and Health Systems Preparedness
Package (ERampHSP) was approved by Cabinet on 22nd April 2020 for Rs 15000
Crores How much of this Fund is actually released or spent on COVID-19 in past
five months since April 20207 How much of this Rs15000 crore is released to the
States and particularly to my State of Maharashtra As per the data Rs 7500 crore
has been allocated for emergency COVID-19 response Rs 4150 crore has been
allocated for strengthening the national and State health system to support prevent
and preparedness Rs 1400 crore has been allocated for strengthening pandemic
research and multi-sector national institutions and platforms for one health Rs 1050
crore has been allocated for community engagement and risk communication and
Rs 900 crore has been allocated for implementation management capacity
building monitoring and evaluation
The Central Government has announced Rs 20 lakh crore package to combat
the impact of COVID-19 in the country How much of this Rs20 lakh crore was
actually infused into the economy since March 20207 How much of this Rs20 lakh
crore was given to my State of Maharashtra
The Centre was insensitive to the needs of an average citizen After the
lockdown was imposed there was a total absence of any supporting action to ramp
up testing expand the medical sector to help the millions of stranded poor workers
and to assist supply chain break In an Unstarred Question on Migrant Workers
(QNo174 on 14092020) the Centre answered that since it maintained no data on
migrant workers deaths during pandemic no compensation will be paid to the

There are multiple confusing rules and regulations issued by Central
Government during lockdown The Economist Magazine (June 13) estimated that
India issued well over 4000 different rules during the first two months of the
lockdown many of those rules being corrections of many of those rules A large
number of bureaucratic orders spelling rules and guidelines on a daily basis have
also created chaos among many stakeholders including businesses and the general
public According to PRS Legislative Research there have been 4130 executive
orders from states and the Centre

SHRI SAPTAGIRI SANKAR ULAKA (KORAPUT) Hon Chairman Sir thank
you for the providing opportunity to speak on the COVID-19 pandemic in the
country As the COVID-19 pandemic situation is going out of control day by day
the cases are increasing rapidly in tribal-dominated undivided Koraput district
Though Covid hospitals have been set up in every district most of these
hospitals are not equipped to treat serious or co-morbid patients We have 10
ICU with ventilators in Jeypore and JK Pur Covid hospitals but these ventilators
are mostly non-functional We donrsquot have Specialists oxygen supply
anesthesiologists etc to make these ventilators and subsequently hospitals
functional After following with the State Government multiple times finally
SLNMCampH has been declared as Covid hospital I would request the Central
Government to set up at least 50 ICU BED Covid hospital in Koraput and
specialists deployed from outside to make these beds functional I would also
request that Covid hospitals be provided with sufficient advanced treatment to
the Covid patients and constitute a team of doctors including Professors from
Medical Colleges to treat the patients
Another key issue is referrals Patients have to travel 400-500 km to
Bhubaneswar by road which is very risky for serious patients Hence I would
urge the Government to establish Air Ambulance leveraging the airstrip at
Jeypore so that serious patients can be transferred to Bhubaneswar without
risking their lives
There was a draconian notification by Odisha State Government which
discouraged patients from outside the State capital being referred to
Bhubaneswar Capacity has been built in Bhubaneswar Cuttack to cater to
treatments of patients from across the State This notification prevents patients
specially from tribal-dominated undivided Koraput district to avail treatment from
specialised hospitals in Bhubaneswar Cuttack There should be clear cut
directions from the Central Government to immediately stay such inhumane
notifications

COVID-19 outbreak and lockdown have impacted tribals and forest
dwellers greatly Now the virus has spread to rural areas especially Scheduled
Areas inhabited by tribals Lack of information and awareness among the tribals
and forest dwellers on the pandemic and required protective measures is a
major issue in tribal areas Tribal settlements are remotely located making it
particularly difficult for information to reach these areas The reverse migration
from cities and urban areas also raises concerns about the spreading of virus in
tribal areas
Poor access of tribal and forest dwellers to PDS is reported from across
the States Provisions under the PDS are not adequately provided or are
provided only to cardholders Ensuring good and nutritious security during the
lockdown in tribalOTFD areas needs to be the highest priority At this time PDS
should be provided to all needy families and migrant workers including those
who donrsquot have any identity cards on humanitarian grounds Insistence on
Aadhar card must be suspended during this period Provision of ration
vegetables cooking oil and other essentials should be made available at the
doorstep
The lockdown has affected collection use and sale of minor forest
produces (MFP) or Non-timber Forest Produce (NTFP) by tribals and forest
dwellers An estimated 100 million forest dwellers depend on MFP for food
shelter medicines and cash income The NFP collection season from April to
June provides major income support to tribals and unfortunately it coincided
exactly with the lockdown The MSP a major economic safety net has failed to
deliver due to lack of implementation in most of the States and slashing of
minimum support prices of many NTFPs by the Central Government
The Ministry of Tribal Affairs (MoTA) has written a letter to States
announcing revisions of MSP for 49 MFPs However what is most critical is the
institutional support that does not exist for collection and procurement of MFPs
with immediate payment Proposal for providing support through Van Dhan
Vikas Kendras (VDVKs) and most of VDVKs are non-functional The Particularly
Vulnerable Tribal Groups (PVTGs) are even more vulnerable a special relief
package for PVTGs comprising adequate grains pulses vegetables oil cash
grant soap and medicines should be provided The migration and seasons
access of pastoralists have been restricted due to the lockdown Also pastoral
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 399
communities have been affected as the milk economy faces severe crisis as
procurement and sale has been affected during the lockdown Diversion of forest
land without the consent of Gram Sabha in violation of the FRA continues even
during the lockdown Even as COVID-19 spreads and livelihoods are affected
due to lockdown there are reports of compensatory afforestation (CA)
plantations being carried out on forest land used by tribals and other traditional
forest dwellers including by fencing o such areas accessed for community rights
I would suggest to set up COVID Response Cell in MoTA ensuring appropriate
guidelines and instructions raising awareness and ensuring healthcare
ensuring food security strengthening NTFP-based livelihoods ensuing support
to PVTGs and pastoral communities support communities living in protected
areas prevent forest diversion and ensuring effective implementation of forest
rights
Thank you Sir

SHRIMATI APARUPA PODDAR (ARAMBAGH) COVID-19 a biomedical
disease has serious physical and tremendous mental health implications as it
is a rapidly spreading pandemic Asian countries like India are currently facing
issue of exponential growth in spread of transmission of COVID-19 in slum areas
of urban cities like Dharavi in Mumbai and the under privileged localities of metro
cities like Delhi
During lockdown period in India migrant workers had faced problems
nation-wide due to sudden ban on travel loss of income food shortage and
uncertainty about future More than 300 migrant workers died due to lockdown
with reasons varying from starvation suicide road and rail accidents lack of
medical care etc Due to COVID-19 pandemic migrant workers faced multiple
hardships They should be provided special assistance by the Central
Government as their families are facing problems to live their lives
According to the psycho-social issues among migrant workers they are
suffering from high degree of anxieties and fears There is no medical help from
the Central Government side for the poor People are jobless More effective
steps should be taken by the Government to prevent spread of COVID-19 Hand
sanitizers and masks should also be provided to people in public places and
healthcare should be given free of cost to the common public
This is the time to fight COVID-19 together Further vaccine for COVID-
19 should be given free of cost to the common man by the Central Government
In this COVID-19 times I would urge the Central Government to give special
financial package to Bengal and clear the pending amount which West Bengal
did not get from the Central Government Our Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee
is facing acute fund crisis Still she is fighting for the people of West Bengal in
this COVID-19 situation
Lastly I thank all the doctors nurses and health workers who are really
doing a good job Thank you

SHRI ANNASAHEB SHANKAR JOLLE (CHIKKODI) Honrsquoble Speaker sir
thank you for allowing me to participate in the discussion under Rule 193
regarding COVID-19 pandemic in the country As we all are aware that the
global spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19) followed by lockdowns has
affected global economies including India Government is taking several steps
to ensure that we are well prepared to face the challenges and threats posed by
COVID-19
India recorded the first case of the disease on January 30 2020 Since
then the cases have increased steadily As on today total 5400620 persons
are infected The number of deaths is 86752 Of the total infected persons in
the country 4303044 patients were recovered Globally over 306 million have
been infected of which nearly 21 million have recovered so far At least
955841 people have lost their lives to the virus so far in the world
In order to protect the people and save the life of COVID-19 affected
people both Government hospitals and private healthcare centres in the
country particularly in Karnataka have done great services The doctors nurses
and all the staff including assistants worked on war footing day in and day out
They put their lives at stake to rescue the affected people from the Coronavirus
they are the real warriors It is because of their sacrifice and sincere efforts India
has overtaken the US to become No1 in terms of Coronavirus recoveries As
per the data the recovery rate is 19 per cent of the total global recoveries It is
a significant achievement of the country I congratulate all the Corona warriors
for their great service for the nation The Union Government had also announced
insurance for Corona Warriors providing treatment free of cost if these warriors
get infected by COVlD-19 and in case of death Rs 30 lakh compensation is
given to the kin
The Union government has taken immediate step to issue a clarification
to use of CSR funds to tackle the COVID-19 pandemic The companies were
allowed to take up projects related to promotion of health care including
preventive healthcare sanitation and disaster management

Further Companies (CSR Policy) Rules 2014 were amended to enable
companies to undertake CSR activities in their normal course of business for
undertaking research and development of new vaccine drugs and medical
devices related to COVID-19 for three financial years in collaboration with any

Under the Aatmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyan package several measures were
taken to rescue the overall sections of the people affected by the lockdown
imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic The package aimed at addressing lives
and livelihood issues such as in-kind support like food and cooking gas cash
transfers insurance coverage to healthcare workers wage increase for
MGNREGA workers collateral free loans in support of MSMEs and tax relief

DR RAJDEEP ROY (SILCHAR) Sir Assam is one of the eight North-East
States of India and often called the Gateway to the North-Eastern Region With
a population of 312 million (as per 2011 Census) spread over 33 administrative
districts Assam has vast geographical area of 78438 square kilometres and
shares international borders with Bhutan and Bangladesh In 2011
the literacy rate of Assam was 7318 per cent (males - 7881 per cent females
- 6727 per cent) The River Brahmaputra (identity for the State) traverses
through various districts of state and finally joins Bay of Bengal The core public
health service in Assam is delivered through an institutional structure that
includes seven functional Medical Colleges twenty-five District Hospitals
fourteen Sub-Divisional Hospitals 177 Community Health Centres 946 Primary
Health Centres 54 Urban Primary Health Centres 4643 Sub-Health Centres
(RHS 2018-19)
The Government of Assam has been successfully managing the COVID-
19 pandemic by adopting multi-pronged comprehensive health systems
strengthening strategies with 3-Ts ndash Testing Tracing and Treatment fully in
tune with the Government of India directives for COVID-19 management
complemented by different state specific safety net initiatives These include
need-based policies professionalism of medical and para-medical fraternity
readiness of health facilities by bridging gaps ensuring availability of logistics
strong support from community and frontline workers engagement of private
hospitals for managing non-COVID cases technical assistance from different
Development Partners support of other Allied State Departments etc
The strong political and administrative commitment shown by Sh
Sarbananda Sonowal hon Chief Minister Dr Himanta Biswa Sarma hon
Minister Health and Family Welfare Government of Assam and Sh Piyush
Hazarika Minister of State Health and Family Welfare a strong team of Senior
Bureaucrats and Health Department Officials Allied Department Staff and
Frontline Warriors have ensured that all strategies and plans as framed are
translated into efficiently implemented interventions Technical support from
different Development Partners such as World Health Organization (Regional
Office) UNICEF Jhpiego Piramal Swasthya and SAATHI have been found very

useful in designing need-based planning to fight back COVID-19 pandemic
unitedly In addition plan execution partners like HLLPPT APOLLO GVK-
EMRI C-NES Krsnaa Laboratories Spandan TBS etc have also extended
their wholesome support All these comprehensive plans set the ground for
rigorous Testing Tracing Isolating and Treating
The State was able to limit the spread of the pandemic initially with only
100 cases till 17th May 2020 since the reporting of first COVID positive case on
31032020 Thereafter cases started increasing with the relaxation of lockdown
and the return of many Assamrsquos residents back to Assam majority of them came
from other COVID-19 hotspot States To tackle the situation Assam adopted
multi-pronged approaches with a policy which can be termed as ldquoAssam Caresrdquo
under which the principle of very strict quarantine measure ldquoStrict quarantine
with a humane heartrdquo has been followed Different approaches adopted have
been proved successful in managing COVID-19 pandemic
As on 19092020 Assam had 155453 confirmed cases and 125540
recovered cases of COVID with a recovery rate of 8075 per cent (national 763
per cent) and case fatality rate of 028 per cent (national 184 per cent) (Table
1) Assamrsquos weekly average of COVID testing in a day (period from 21-08-2020
to 27-08-2020 as in table 2) is 30322 and the weekly average of confirmed
cases in a day is 1822 with an average positivity rate just about six per cent
The doubling time for the state is 218 days
It is heartening to mention that as on 26th August the tests per million
population (TPM) in Assam are 60404 which is more than double of the national
TPM of 26685 and one of the best in the country with the mortality rate of 028
per cent as one of the lowest in the country
Assam adopted an approach of 3Ts - Testing Tracing and Treatment for
management of COVID-19 pandemic in the State This is in line with the national
testing strategy aggressively tracking comprehensively and treating efficiently
However the Statersquos approach is much more comprehensive and inclusive in
nature with a view to bend the curve of COVID The broad specific actions which
are taken are stated below
1 Ensuring Sufficient availability of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) The
State ensured sufficient availability of PPEs (triple-layer mask N-95 and
PPE) to ensure that all COVID warriors feel confident to work in COVID
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 408
management The initial stock procurement made in March-April 2020
helped us to tide over the period of absolute scarcity without significant
difficulties
2 Gap filling of health facilities Gaps in health facilities mainly Medical
Colleges and District Hospitals were assessed on a war footing scale gaps
were bridged and facilities were made ready to manage COVID patients
The state has currently 25750 isolation beds and 58949 quarantine beds
3 Safety and security of COVID warriors The Health Department of Assam
ensures that after every seven days of duty each health care provider is
quarantined for seven days at quarantine centers and the cost is being borne
by the state Each health care staff is tested before and after quarantine The
success of this is reflected in the low mortality of heath care workers from
COVID in the state Though approximately 1900 plus health care workers
have been infected so far only six deaths have been reported among the
health workers in Assam of which only three were associated with COVID-19
duties
4 Training of staff associated in clinical management of COVID State on
priority trained approximately 3000 number of doctors 11000 para-medical
staff and supporting staff etc using virtual mode on clinical management of
COVID and frontline health worker protection The State also trained 700 final
year MBBS students and 2000 final year nursing students as back up COVID
healthcare providers Still continuous training is undertaken to keep them up
to date in latest treatment protocols as COVID treatment protocols are
evolving
5 Massive IEC campaign for mass awareness of Public on COVID-19 For
mass awareness generation ASHAs are mobilized for door-to-door
awareness campaign to inform community on DOrsquos and DONrsquoTs of COVID-
19 IEC Materials were distributed on signs and symptoms preventive
measures (use of mask hand washing and social distancing) using different
media platforms Hon Health Minister Assam shares regular press briefings
to inform people on COVID-19
6 Active support from frontline workers in generating awareness on COVID
Support of all frontline workers (ASHA ANM MPW) has been found highly
beneficial in reaching the last household with COVID-19 awareness
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 409
messages To ramp up testing state started ldquoAssam Community Surveillance
Program (ACSP)rdquo from 07th May 2020 in around 28000 villageswards of the
State to look for SARI (Severe Acute Respiratory Infections) ILI (Influenza
like Illness) fever dengue malaria diarrhea cases and to carry out
appropriate testing (as per the signs and symptoms) Based on the
encouraging feedback of 1st round of ACSP state is carrying out 2nd round of
ACSP with the name Assam Targeted Surveillance Plan (ATSP) -
NISCHAYATA (ACSP-Phase II) Under NISCHAYATA aggressive testing is
carried out at potential hotspots like market places interstate truck terminals
and parking lots random testing of vulnerable people of Health department
Police Transportation workers and Hotels staff etc This aggressive testing
approach ldquoCHASE THE VIRUSrdquo helped in identifying many COVID patients
and starting their timely treatment
7 Psychological support to patients Understanding the psychological impacts
of COVID-19 on the individual and the society an active intervention named
ldquoMononrdquo meaning lsquodeliberate thinkingrsquo was initiated involving Psychiatry
department Gauhati Medical College and LGB Regional Institute of Mental
Health Tezpur and a set of trained and committed volunteers to provide free
of cost psychiatric counselling and treatment to the COVID affected persons
as well as those who were quarantined As on date more than 32000
patients have been contacted over phone to provide psychiatric assistance
In addition free of cost online yoga training for patients in hospitals and Covid
Care Centres is also given
8 Universal screening and testing Assam took a policy decision to quarantine
everyone entering state (by air train and road) followed by testing and based
on the test report home quarantine is given to them whose test report comes
negative and positive cases are taken to hospital for treatment This
approach of ldquoChase the Virusrdquo was very useful in identifying many cases Till
May 2020 Assam could test only 12 Lac but with the ramping up of testing
facilities and testing state could test 207 Lac till 26th August 2020 From one
laboratory in February 2020 now state has 17 ICMR approved laboratories
Tests per million for Assam are 60404 and the positivity rate is 738 per cent
as on 19092020 Of the tests being done about 60 per cent are through
RT-PCR while about 40 per cent are using the point of care rapid antigen
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 410
tests Given the low sensitivity of antigen tests all symptomatic cases found
negative in the antigen test are re-tested using RT-PCR and necessary
actions are taken based on the test report To give the facility of getting tested
to people at Guwahati City 105 COVID Screening and Counselling Centres
(CCC) have been set up spread over in all the 31 wards of Guwahati Similar
facilities have been arranged in all other districts as well to facilitate public
testing free of cost These facilities provide testing and also counselling to
COVID confirmed cases
9 Setting up of Additional COVID Care Centres (CCC) Assam started setting
up of additional COVID Care Centers (CCC) at different places in the state
because of the increasing COVID positive cases Under this existing
colleges and convention centers where available were converted to COVID
Care Centers to cater to increasing COVID positive cases In addition
temporary structure like German Hangers with facilities like individual cabins
and toilets were prepared in war footing to admit and keep mild cases who
could not practice isolation at home
10 Increasing Oxygen production storage and delivery capacity As continuous
supply of medical oxygen is one of the critical elements for treatment of
COVID-19 the State Government is actively undertaking necessary steps to
arrange for sufficient numbers of oxygen cylinders of various capacities to
transport medical oxygen Cryogenic tanks for keeping liquid oxygen are
being established in GMCH and other medical colleges Oxygen generation
plants and oxygen concentrators are also being installed as per need
Infrastructure to provide oxygen through medical gas pipelines in hitherto
unavailable areas within the hospitals is also being undertaken earnestly
11 Scientific and evidence-based management of COVID-19 patients As the
COVID situation evolved the treatment protocols also evolved in the last few
months against COVID From the initial consideration of azithromycin and
hydroxyl chloroquine treatment protocol of COVID has swiftly moved
towards low molecular weight heparin steroids Inj Remdesivir monoclonal
antibodies like Tocilizumab and Itoluzumab convalescent plasma etc and
the state has progressively and timely adopted all the modern treatment for
COVID-19 patient management Many COVID patients could be brought
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 411
back from ICU and ventilators because of timely actions taken by the expert
health providers
12 Convalescent Plasma Therapy Assam is one of the first states in India to
bring in state of art Convalescent Plasma Bank with necessary facilities at
five Medical Colleges State has started motivating eligible cured COVID
patients to donate plasma and to transfuse plasma to the needy at Medical
Colleges of Assam Till 19092020 almost 1000 people have received
plasma therapy
13 Participation of Private Health Facilities In early phase State took support
from private health facilities in Guwahati Dibrugarh and Cachar (districts with
Medical Colleges) to manage all non-COVID cases while making the medical
colleges functional as fullypartly dedicated COVID hospitals Further with
the evolution of COVID-19 private hospitals are regularly supervised and kept
in loop so as to ensure that standard treatment protocols are followed across
the state irrespective of the status of the hospitals In addition free testing
facilities are being extended to private hospitals also so that the citizens
visiting these hospitals are not charged for testing COVID-19
14 Field level COVID Warriors Health care providers including managerial and
support staff have been working selflessly towards surveillance screening
sample collection supply of logistics transportation of samples to the
laboratories and information sharing with the higher authorities Continuous
training and monitoring through district officials and Zonal Medical College
faculties has helped in maintaining the high standards set by the Government
in dealing with COVID-19 patients
15 Facilitation of Home Isolation State started a unique scheme of supplying
necessary medicines and pulse oximeters to COVID positive patients who
are asymptomatic or mildly infected and prefer to remain in home isolation
These patients are supported by telemedicine and video-consultations
through e-sanjeevani with a tag name- SAMPARK Over a period time it is
expected that most of the mild and asymptomatic cases will prefer to have
home isolation However absolute awareness about the danger signs and
proper knowledge about immediate steps to be taken from the patient side
are very critical Hence efforts are being made to create awareness among
public for early testing and treatment
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 412
16 COVID Sero Survey ICMR on request from the State is conducting the sero
survey to detect antibodies to COVID in the population to assess prevalence
of the SARS-CoV-2 virus in three districts of Assam and the survey report is
likely to be shared with State by early September 2020 Depending on the
feedback the State is also planning to conduct sero survey for Antibody
through ELISA-based tests in large scale as per the requirements for future
planning
As explained above the Government of Assam is undertaking a large
gamut of activities in order to keep the citizens safe and healthy Obviously the
Government of India policy is strictly followed with Statersquos own innovative plans
and implementation of the same All these activities definitely have huge cost
impact and the Statersquos own fund is not enough to meet all the expenses at the
same time Even with the Government of Indiarsquos assistance the expenditure
already made for COVID-19 management with the pending liabilities and future
needs for this financial year alone is a huge burden on the State Government
The major expenditures made by Government of Assam in Health
Department and NHM Assam can be described as follows COVID-19 pandemic

SHRI UNMESH BHAIYYASAHEB PATIL (JALGAON) Thank you Sir for giving
me an opportunity to take part in this discussion under Rule 193 on a matter of
immense importance which not only concerns our country but also the whole
world which has seen 31 million cases across the world
I would like to thank our Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji under
whose leadership India has led from the front in our fight against this pandemic
and Dr Harsh Vardhan ji who has been working day and night to manage the
situation in an effective manner
The world and several institutions including the WHO are now looking up
to India to lead the fight and the Indian model as an example to emulate Apart
from handling the health pandemic India has also deftly dealt with the economic
situation arising as a result notable among them are the measures taken for the
vulnerable sections of the society who are the worst hit and are expectedly
facing hardships
India would now be playing a more prominent role at the World Health
Organisation WHO with Union Health Minister Dr Harsh Vardhan set to take
charge as Chairman of the WHO Executive Board at its 147th session
Indiarsquos response to COVID-19 has been ldquopre-emptive pro-active and
graded The Government had already put in place a lsquocomprehensive response
systemrdquo at the borders of the country much before the World Health
Organisation declared the coronavirus as a public health emergency of
international concern on January 30 Such a response ensured that there was
no panic among the citizens and avoided inconvenience to the extent possible
The Indian Government has also evacuated its citizens and those of its
neighbours from high-risk countries including China Japan Iran and Italy The
Government started screening of incoming air passengers followed by
suspension of visas and a ban on international flights were done much ahead of
any other country Italy and Spain started screening travellers 25 days and 39
days respectively after the first reported cases
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 416
Equally noteworthy are the various public awareness campaigns Prime
Minister Shri Modi has shown leadership in mobilizing the Heads of Governments of
the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) and that of the G-20
to share reliable information best practices and support each other in fighting this
pandemic
I will conclude with some suggestions to further bolster our fight against
corona
My first suggestion is the scope of Ayushman Bharat Indiarsquos flagship
insuranceassurance scheme launched with the vision of universal healthcare and
leaving no one behind should be expanded to include the 40 per cent lsquomissing
middlersquo who are neither covered by private insurance nor by the Government so that
any COVID-19 related expenses are covered by the Government
My second suggestion is this Businesses have a responsibility towards their
employees Those employees who are not on any permanent contract often become
the first casualty of cost cutting measures and are the most vulnerable It will be
critical for businesses to ensure all such employees continue to get paid and that
companies can partner with the Government to ensure their health coverage
My third suggestion is this The Constitution of India distributes the legislative
powers between the Centre and the States under the Seventh Schedule Services
related to public health sanitation hospitals and dispensaries are categorised under
Entry 6 of List II and is the responsibility of the States The rationale to entrust the
responsibility of public health and sanitation to the States is because the health
requirements vary from one State to another
But when it comes to making effective response strategy for tackling
pandemics that affect the health of the population around the country it becomes
imperative for the Union to spearhead the nationwide planning in consort with the
State Governments
In fact given their inherent challenges it becomes implicit for the States to
look up to the Union Government for a direct intervention to mobilise their medical
resources and devise efficient strategies for routing the resources where it is most
needed
With these suggestions I conclude my speech

SHRI NABA KUMAR SARANIA (KOKRAJHAR) Hon Speaker Sir I am
thankful to you for allowing me to speak on the COVID-19 discussion under
Rule 193
In my State three Governments are functioning namely the Central
Government State Government and BTC When the lockdown was declared
the BTC Assembly elections were going on Later on 27th April 2020 the
Governor Rule was imposed in the BTC Till today Model Code of Conduct is
imposed there
Sir yesterday I came to know that Assam Government had written to the
Election Commission of Assam to postpone the BTC elections But I think it is
not the right solution The people of the BTC have suffered so much during the
lockdown and Model Code of Conduct The BTC election procedure up to
symbol distribution has been completed Only six to seven days are left for
competing the BTC Assembly Elections I think it is possible by maintaining all
the COVID-19 protocols before 27th October 2020
So I would request the Central Government to please advise the State
Government to strictly maintain the COVID-19 guidelines in the BTC area
because in their campaigning so many parties have organised mass gatherings
and even some responsible State Ministers have participated there by violating
the social distancing norms Some were even not wearing masks
So these norms should be followed strictly I will extend all the possible
support to the State Government and the Central Government in this regard
Thank you

SHRI JAGDAMBIKA PAL (DOMARIYAGANJ) Respected hon Speaker Sir I
rise to lay on the table of the House the facts on the discussion under rule 193
on COVID-19 Pandemic in the country
Sir the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare acknowledged the
emergence of a new coronavirus (COVID-19) that was spreading across China
The first Indian case of COVID 19 was reported on 30th January 2020 The
Ministry of Home Affairs announced a 21-day lockdown to contain the spread of
COVID-19 from March 25 2020 to April 14 2020 As the spread increased and
more information about the virus was uncovered the Central Government
announced several policy decisions to contain it
Further measures were also announced to support citizens and
businesses who were affected by such containment measures India started
point of entry screening of passengers at ports airports and land border
crossings Under Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Yojana to provide relief against
COVID-19 the Finance Minister announced a relief package of 17 lakh crore
rupees for the poor An Insurance cover of Rs50 lakh was provided to health
workers (such as doctors nurses paramedics and ASHA workers) who are
treating patients of COVID-19 About 80 crore poor people got five kilograms of
wheat or rice and one kilogram of preferred pulses were also provided for free
every month Women account holders under the Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan
Yojana got Rs500 per month and also free gas cylinders were distributed to the
needy people
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has constituted an Advisory Committee
to review the Ways and Means Advances (WMA) limits for States and UTS
WMA limits refer to temporary loans given by the RBI to State Governments
Until the Committee submits its final recommendations the WMA limit has been
increased by 30 from the existing limit for all States and UTs The revised
limits will be in force between April 1 and September 30 2020
Sir todays our Government has reached the level of more than 12 lakh
COVID tests per day This strongly demonstrates an exponential increase
COVID-19 testing infrastructure in the country
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 419
The countrys testing capacities have multiplied manifold From
conducting merely 10000 tests per day on 8th April the daily average has
crossed 12 lakhs today In addition for treatment of those affected by COVID
the Government is implementing Ayushman Bharat-Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya
Yojana under which 601 coaches have been converted into Covid Care Centres
by Indian Railways
Sir in all 4621 Shramik Special trains have been operated between 1st
May 2020 to 31st August 2020 carrying 6319 lakhs stranded passengers to
their home states From Zero manufactures to 1100 indigenous manufacturing
of PPE kits shows the Central Government achievement in tackling the problem
of COVIDndash19 An amount of Rs11092 crore has been provided under State
Disaster Risk Management Fund to all States to tackle COVID-19
Sir I would like to request that 90 oxygen cylinders may be used for
COVID patient and the rest 10 may be used for other chronic diseases The
steps taken by our Government to tackle the problem of COVID-19 pandemic is
very praiseworthy I am therefore fully satisfied and also appreciate the major
allocation of funds to the States as well as to the poor people to overcome the
problem of COVID Pandemic

SHRI P P CHAUDHARY (PALI) Iniarsquos response to COVID-19 has been pre-
emptive pro-active and graded The country has already put in place a
comprehensive response system at its borders much before the WHO declared
it as a public health emergency of international concern which is January
302020
Many of my friends are criticizing the announcement of lockdown I would
like to call their bluff and remind them if the lockdown was not announced in a
sudden manner it would have created a havoc People distressed lining for
tickets price rise of essential commodities and travel plans the crowded
movement of masses would have spread COVID-19 from the urban to far flung
distant corners of the country
Under such extraordinary circumstances where we knew not what was
the propensity of the threat from disease which originated in China where even
the WHO was misled a good leadership leads with confidence works for the
betterment of situation and arrange for facilities needed PM Shri Modi was able
to announce the lockdown at such short notice because he had made
arrangements prior to announcement different from the Congress era when
announcements were done with distant dreams of materialization in future which
never happened
Coming to PM Garib Kalyan Yojana on March 26 when the Government
announced a relief package of Rs17 lakh crore under the Pradhan Mantri Garib
Kalyan Yojana for the poor the Opposition was doing politics and bickering on
social media tapping from the comforts of their air-conditioned homes and
offices
In pursuance of the pro-poor announcement made under the Pradhan
Mantri Garib Kalyan package as part of the economic response to COVID-19
the Government of India had launched the scheme for additional allocation of
foodgrains from the Central pool at the rate of five kilogram per person per month
free of cost for all the beneficiaries covered under the Targeted Public
Distribution System (TPDS) (AAY amp PHH) including those covered under the
DBT for a period of three months that is April-June 2020
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 421
Accordingly about 121 LMT of foodgrain was allotted to approximately
8096 crore beneficiaries entailing a subsidy outgo of nearly Rs46061 crore
Necessary orders were issued on 30032020
The scheme was further extended as part of economic response to
COVID-19 for another five months from July to November 2020 for distribution
to all the beneficiary households under the National Food Security Act 2013
(NFSA) at the rate of five kilogram per person per month free of cost for all the
beneficiaries covered under the Targeted Public Distribution System
(TPDS)National Food Security Act (NFSA) Accordingly about 201 LMT of
foodgrains have been allotted to approximately 8043 crore beneficiaries
entailing subsidy outgo of nearly Rs7606212 crore Till June 30 2020
Rs18000 crore has been transferred to the bank accounts of more than nine
crore farmers and Rs50000 crore is being spent on PM Garib Kalyan Rojgar
Abhiyaan which has been started to provide employment opportunities
Coming to Aatma Nirbhar Bharat we never took refuge behind COVID-19
pandemic to shy from our responsibilities but we saw this as an opportunity to
develop India and launched the Aatma Nirbhar Bharat Scheme Hon Prime
Minister Shri Narendra Modi on May 12 2020 announced the special economic
and comprehensive package of Rs20 lakh crore which is equivalent to 10 per
cent of Indiarsquos GDP to fight the COVID-19 pandemic in India Indiarsquos self-
reliance is ingrained in the happiness cooperation and peace of the world with
the sacrosanct belief that this is the culture which believes in the welfare of the
world for all the living creatures and the one which considers the whole world
as a family Its premise is ldquoिाता भकि पतरो अहि पकथवयrsquo -the culture that considers
the earth to be the mother And when the Bharat Bhumi becomes self-sufficient
it ensures the possibility of a prosperous world Indiarsquos progress has always
been integral to the progress of the world He gave a clarion call for Aatma
Nirbhar Bharat or Self-Reliant India Movement
To provide relief to the business additional working capital finance of 20
per cent of the outstanding credit as on 29th February 2020 in the form of a term
loan at a concessional rate of interest would be provided This would be available
to units with up to Rs25 crore outstanding and turnover of up to Rs100 crore
whose accounts are standard The units would not have to provide any
guarantee or collateral of their own The amount would be 100 per cent
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 422
guaranteed by the Government of India providing a total liquidity of Rs3 lakh
crore to more than 45 lakh MSMEs
After taking the Cabinet approval on 20052020 the Department of
Financial Services issued Operational Guidelines for the scheme on 23052020
and the Emergency Credit Line Guarantee Scheme (ECLGS) Fund was
registered on 26052020 In a short period of about one-and-a-half month
noticeable progress has been achieved in identifying units sanctioning as well
as disbursing of loans to MSMEs
New front-loaded special refinance facility of Rs30000 crore was
sanctioned by the National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development
(NABARD) during COVID-19 to RRBs and cooperative banks This special
facility is expected to benefit three crore farmers consisting of mostly small and
marginal farmers in meeting their credit needs for post-harvest and kharif sowing
requirements When kharif sowing was already on its full swing Rs2487687
crore out of Rs30000 crore was disbursed as on 672020 out of this special
facility
The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in reverse migration of urban
migrantspoor in the country The urban migrants stay in slumsinformal
settlementsunauthorised coloniesperi-urban areas to save cost on housing
They need decent rental housing at affordable rate at their work sites
In order to address this need the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs
has initiated Affordable Rental Housing Complexes (ARHCs) a sub-scheme
under the Pradhan Mantri AWAS Yojana-Urban (PMAY-U) This will provide
ease of living to urban migrantspoor in industrial sector as well as in non-formal
urban economy to get access to dignified affordable rental housing close to their
workplace
Hum Mante Hai Andhera Ghana Hai Magar Diya Jalana Kaha Mana Hai
Hum aise hi Bharat ke Vikas ke diye ki lo ko jalaye rakhenge
With this I rest my speech

SHRI TEJASVI SURYA (BANGALORE SOUTH) Hon Speaker at the outset
I wish to thank the hon Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji for effectively
handling the COVID-19 pandemic
By taking speedy and seemingly harsh measures prioritising the health of
the citizens of the country PM Modi Ji has ensured that India has one of the
lowest COVID-19 deaths per million population An early lockdown called by the
PM potentially saved upto 70000 lives and more than 29 lakh cases While
India stayed indoors and obeyed the Prime Ministerrsquos call he constituted the
PMCARES Fund for supplying ventilators and improving the health infrastructure
of the country After India entered the unlock stage Prime Minister Modi
unveiled a slew of reforms in the form of the Atmanirbar Bharat Scheme to
mitigate the economic hardship faced by MSMEs street vendors migrant
labourers and practically every other citizen Similarly the PM Garib Kalyan Ann
Yojana ensured that no citizen would go hungry despite the country experiencing
the worst global pandemic in a century
My State Karnataka under the leadership of hon Chief Minister Shri BS
Yedurappa has also managed to control the pandemic effectively True to its
tag of being the Tech Capital of the country my city Bengaluru utilized
technology and implemented unique solutions to assist citizens during the
lockdown and beyond
Soon after the lockdown was announced we set up a Bengaluru South
MP Coronavirus Task Force with the help of more than 4000 dedicated
volunteers to attend to citizensrsquo emergency requirements The Task Force
volunteers are available 247 on the number 99464 99464 We formed area-
wise WhatsApp groups to assist senior citizens pregnant women migrant
workers and other distressed people during the lockdown period They
extended all non-COVID medical support in the form of assistance in procuring
medicines and groceries delivering food packets to the needy and also feeding
stray dogs They also provided free and compassionate psychological
counselling The Task Force also tied up with cab aggregator Ola to provide
free taxi rides to hospitals for non-COVID medical emergencies
------------------------

During the lockdown period the MP Coronavirus Task Force handled
5000 individual requests provided 2600 free Ola cab rides to hospitals served
450000 meals served to underprivileged sections and migrant workers and
handed out 35000 free ration kits for the migrants and needy
Bengaluru further proved its credentials of being the startup capital of the
country when we established the Home Line what is possibly Indiarsquos first
WhatsApp bot-enabled e-commerce platform
The Home Line was a phone number (080 61914960) accessible both by
call and WhatsApp set up for the home delivery of essentials from your nearest
grocer or medical store in Bengaluru We brought together 30 competing
startups from Bengaluru mapped every retailer in the city and unleashed about
10000 delivery executives to take essentials to the doorsteps of citizens Using
Cloud Calling system of Kaleyra call center employees of (24)7ai working for
the Home Line would note the order for groceries or medicines and generate a
ticket The ticket would be passed on to a delivery executive from Dunzo
Swiggy Rapido Shadowfax or House Joy The delivery executive would
proceed to purchase the items from the grocer or medical store located closest
to the caller and deliver the items
During the lockdown period the Home Line of Bengaluru received 17059
orders on WhatsApp and 2137 orders placed on phone It enabled the delivery
of 14049 orders and served 30000 people in Bengaluru
Bengaluru finally opened up during the Unlock phase and we noticed an
increase in the number of daily cars We once again came up with a technology
solution to handle the outbreak called COVID Raksha
COVID Raksha can be accessed by phone and WhatsApp by using the
same helpline number 080 6191 4960 Citizens can report COVID-19
symptoms enquire about test request for doctor assistance and expert advice
and seek guidance on turning positive and take initiative to reach out for urgent
care It also facilitates the shifting of patients in distress to hospitals across
Bengaluru
The Office of the MP partnered with Swasth Project Stepone Kaleyra
Fortis Hospitals (24)7ai ACT Grants Cartoon Mango SRL Diagnostics Hey
Doc Pharmeasy Portea Medical ITW Consulting and Spykke Technologies to
power the platform
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 427
Through COVID Raksha (as on 10th September) we have answered
10700 calls from citizens on the coronavirus infection and conducted 3465
sessions on WhatsApp We have completed 1698 triaging of symptoms on
Swasth and facilitated 582 hospital transfers The COVID Raksha so far has
handled 96 advanced emergency cases and provided life-saving care to citizens
in Bengaluru
With this hon Speaker I would like to thank citizens for enabling us to
serve them I also would like to thank the Prime Minister once again for showing
exemplary leadership during such times Together we will fight this pandemic

SHRI PC MOHAN (BANGALORE CENTRAL) Hon Speaker Sir thank you
for allowing me to participate in the discussion under Rule 193
regarding COVID-19 pandemic in the country
The latest data shows that 54 lakhs 620 cases confirmed cases and
around 86752 deaths and 4303044 patients have already been cured as
on today
Sir India is the second largest democracy in the world with the population
of more than 135 crore In such a big country to enforce a lockdown and prevent
people to stop their daily activities and business is not a matter of joke It is
known to all of us
Even then our Union Government under the leadership of Shri Narendra
Modi ji has taken very effective steps to impose the lockdown to protect people
As a Prime minister of the country he has taken a very bold step He did not
think twice about the ill effects of the economic situation caused by lockdown
He gave top priority to save the lives of people of the country He took the people
of the country into confidence by interacting with them frequently through the
National media and lsquoMann Ki Baatrsquo programmes I congratulate the hon Prime
Minister for his bold initiatives And I am thankful to the people of the country for
showing their respect and honor the words of the hon Prime Minister
ldquoIn a landmark global achievementrdquo India has overtaken the US to
become No1 in terms of coronavirus recoveries accounting for close to 19 per
cent of the total global recoveries It is because of the great sacrifice done by
the healthcare service providers
In order to protect the people and save the life of covid-19 affected people
both Government hospitals and private health care centers in the country
particularly in Karnataka have done great services The doctors nurses and all
the staff including assistances worked on war footing day in and day out They
put their lives at stake to rescue the affected people from the coronavirus They
are the real warriors I am thankful to all the corona warriors for their great
service for the nation
This is reflected in the Government Response Stringency Index measured by
Oxford University which says that India enforced one of the most stringent
lockdowns
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 429
Our BJP Government in the Center and also in the state of Karnataka have taken
several measure to manage situation risen out of the COVID-19 pandemic on a war
footing ldquoDedicated hospitals for the treatment of the
infected fever clinics and Covid care centres in Bengaluru and in all other
district headquarters of the State were set up apart from quarantine
facilities to identify and isolate the infected personsrdquo
Atmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyana
On May 12 Government announced Atmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyana
Package a special economic and comprehensive package of Rs 20 lakh
crore - equivalent to 10 per cent of Indiarsquos GDP - to combat the impact of
the COVID-19 pandemic in India Later on the lockdown was considerably eased in the
months of July August and September Now there is a gradual improvement in growth of
Manufacturing core industries E-way bills Kharif sowing power
consumption railway freight cargo traffic and passenger vehicle sales etc
Ayushman Bharat program
The Government has launched Ayushman Bharat program and Pradhan Mantri Jan
Arogya Yojana for the people Under this the Government provides health coverage of
Rs 5 lakh per family per annum to more than 10 crore poor and vulnerable families for
secondary and tertiary care
hospitalization Our BJP Government is making all the efforts sincerely to
augment the health infrastructure to combat COVID-19 pandemic in the
country
Allocation of Funds
As far as the budget allocation is concerned in the interim budget of 2019- 20
around 22 per cent has been allocated to the Department of Health amp Family Welfare
During the year 2015-16 Government health expenditure is 118 per cent of GDP The
allocation is constantly increasing during the BJP
Government for the last six years The National Health Policy 2017
envisages increasing public health expenditure to 25 per cent of GDP by
2025 Our BJP Government is making all the efforts to achieve this target
With the constant efforts and encouragement of the union Government a major
achievement made by Tata CRISPR in finding an advanced test for Covid-19 The Tata
CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats) test achieves the
highest accuracy levels than the traditional RT-PCR tests It takes quicker turnaround time
and less expensive equipment and better ease of use
With these words I conclude my speech Thank you Sir

SHRI RAM MOHAN NAIDU KINJARAPU (SRIKAKULAM) Thank you hon
Speaker Sir for giving me the opportunity to speak on the discussion on COVID-
19 pandemic in the country
First of all I would like to pay my tribute and pass on my condolences to
the families of all the doctors nurses health workers police and to all those
who have worked on a frontline and have lost their lives due to COVID-19
pandemic I would like to thank the hon Minister of External Affairs Dr
Subrahmanyam Jaishankar Ji who has helped in bringing back people who
were stranded outside India and I would also like to thank all the State
Governments who have helped in bringing migrants of Andhra Pradesh back to
their homes I would also like to thank all the MPs who have worked
tremendously in their constituencies during the crisis Right now they are
fulfilling their constitutional duties in the Parliament While we are discussing
this the COVID-19 cases have passed the 54-lakh mark with as many as 92605
new cases reported today The country has lost around 87000 lives in the
pandemic
My State Andhra Pradesh has seen a total of 8218 new cases today and
the total confirmed cases in the State is 617776 The Statersquos tally is the second
highest after Maharashtra My constituency Srikakulam has seen total of
30000 cases and 280 deaths till now
Hon Speaker Sir this discussion on COVID-19 should have been taken
up during the Budget Session when we were aware that our country would have
to face this pandemic Having a discussion at that time would have helped us
formulate our response to tackle the crisis more effectively
I would also like to commend the efforts of the Government of India and
its bold if not timely decision to implement the most comprehensive lockdown
anywhere in the world Being one of the most populated countries in the world
we needed it at that time to calibrate our responses to tackle the global crisis
and also to save our economy We also needed it to upgrade the health
infrastructure and increase the capacity of beds to meet the demand that might
arise due to this pandemic
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 438
Sir after six months of the lockdown when we are in the 4th stage of the
unlock process now the question then arises did we use the time on our hands
effectively and efficiently
If we look at the Annualised figures of GDP for April-June quarter then
the scenario becomes more dire
India -75 per cent
UK -599 per cent
Germany -33 per cent
USA -317 per cent
Japan -278 per cent
China -546 per cent
If we look at quarter-over-quarter GDP growth between April-June 2020
over January-March 2020
India -2928 per cent
UK -204 per cent
Germany -97 per cent
USA -909 per cent
Japan -78 per cent
China -115 per cent
During an interaction of the hon Prime Minister with the Leaders of the
Parliamentary Parties on 8th April 2020 I had suggested that in order to come
out of this lockdown and protect our economy a stimulus package to the tune
of at least 10 per cent of the GDP needs to be announced This was accepted
by the hon Finance Minister and she announced a package in the same line on
12th May 2020
Of Rs 20 lakh crore stimulus package announced nearly 50 per cent of
it is in the form of liquidity measures to help banks and NBFCs to increase
lending business to stimulate growth While demand was subdued due to
COVID-19 situation banks and NBFCs were also reluctant to lend due to
potential NPA concerns Therefore the stimulus package announced for various
MSMEs and small businesses was also not in the form of grants but in the form
of loans food supply for migrant labourers and some infrastructural support
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 439
The actual expenditure of the Government is negligible with most burden on the
RBI and institutions like NABARD etc
The Government has also planned to tap construction workers fund
mineral fund and compensatory fund etc The Government has just recycled its
schemes and allocations already counted for in the budgetary allocations As
part of the COVID-19 package of Rs 54 lakh crore package announced for
MSMEs the actual cost to the Government is estimated at Rs 25000 crore only
For this as I have suggested previously the Government should review
its capital and revenue expenditure plans and classify them under three heads
as critical essential and desirable The one which is being required and is
urgent is critical the one which is being required but not urgent is essential
and the one which is not being required and also not urgent is desirable The
Government should delay the expenditure that is not critical and divert that
amount towards the second stimulus package
We are all facing the same storm but we are not sailing in the same boat
While some sectors have prospered during these pandemic times others such
as construction travel restaurant MSMEs across all the verticals have
suffered the most
If you look at the employment report -- recently released by CMIE it states
that during the April-July period about 19 million salaried people lost their jobs
in India While salaried jobs are not easily lost but once lost they are also far
more difficult to retrieve
The package needs to be focussed on providing financial support to those
industries which see the largest loss in employment so that they have the funds
to rehire or save the jobs of their employees So the financial support and
stimulus package need to be directed to support the most vulnerable people and
businesses
While unemployment number is increasing the businesses are also
facing shortage of labour which is becoming the cause for a concern We need
to figure out a way to get the right people to the right place in order to kick start
the economic activity For this I suggest that the migrant labourers be provided
some incentives to get back to their work sites They should also be provided
some travel incentives increased healthcare facilities at labour camps to handle
COVID infections and mobile ration cards etc
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 440
During the lockdown period we have seen many gains in terms of
reduction in the levels of pollution better sanitation and hygiene and that needs
to be sustained
These measures would surely bring economy back on track in some time
However for the welfare of the people I would like to mention a few points
Under the Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Yojana insurance cover will be provided
to 2212 lakh health care providers including public healthcare providers and
private hospital staff The insurance provided will be above any other insurance
cover being availed by the beneficiary and does not require any additional
registration The premium for it will be borne by the Ministry of Health and Family
Welfare The insurance scheme was operationalised on March 30 and will be in
force till September 2020 which is extended for a further period of time of 180
days The claims of these workers should be processed quickly The police
officials who are doing their duties during these Corona times have no
insurance So the Government should introduce a similar kind of a scheme for
them as well
After the COVID-19 pandemic fishermen are in dire need of assistance
When the lockdown was announced many fishermen were in the high seas and
when they came back there were no traders and the supply chains were
crashed It resulted in the severe loss of income to the fishermen We are still in
the middle of the pandemic and the demand of fisheries is still low and therefore
they are struggling hard to meet their day to day needs As part of the
Atmanirbhar Bharat package Rs 20000 crore has been allocated to Pradhan
Mantri Matsya Sampada Yojana but it does not contain any provision for
financial assistance to the hard hit fishermen The fishermen are not even
included in PM-KISAN Scheme which they have demanded for so long I request
the Government to constitute a Fishermen Welfare Fund and sanction a special
grant to formulate schemes related to providing compensation during this tough
time Andhra Pradeshrsquos economy is significantly dependent on fisheries and
fishermen and even Andhra Pradesh has significantly contributed in the total fish
production in India
Srikakulam is also a major source of outmigration of fishermen and other
migrant workers and has recently witnessed all the migrants returning to home
especially from Veraval in Gujarat and also from Chennai The unemployment
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 441
among them has increased the job demand under MNREGA and it is the highest
ever after 2007 They need job and wages to meet their day-to-day needs very
badly The Gareeb Kalyan Rojgar Abhiyaan has been introduced to provide
livelihood to migrants who are back home in 116 districts in 6 States of India but
Srikakulam has not been included in spite of being a backward district In fact
not even one district of Andhra Pradesh has been included Andhra Pradesh has
seven backward districts out of total of 13 districts
The number of COVID-19 cases could go up in Srikakulam due to limited
availability of hospitals and COVID-care centres Therefore due to shortage of
beds patients with mild symptoms are sent back to their homes I request to
grant Rs 50 crore from PM CARES Fund to establish new COVID care centre
in the district
Under the Pradhan Mantri Street Vendorrsquos Atmanirbhar Nidhi Scheme
(PM SVANidhi Scheme) only the street vendors of urban local bodies are
included But in Srikakulam in the State of Andhra Pradesh many fish vendors
especially women work at the rural places as well If they can also be included
it would be better
With this I thank you for giving me this opportunity to speak

DR SUJAY VIKHE PATIL (AHMEDNAGAR) Thank you Sir for giving me a
chance to speak in this very important discussion on the outbreak of Corona
Pandemic in India Sir today as I stand to speak on this issue I would like to
begin with paying my tributes to the Corona warriors which include doctors
healthcare workers sanitation workers police staff and everyone who has
strengthened our fight against this virus
I would like to place on record my appreciation and gratitude to our Prime
Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji who has led from the front and with his decisive
leadership we have been able to successfully fight this battle I also thank Dr
Harshvardhan Ji for spearheading the efforts of the Ministry of Health and Family
Welfare
It is pertinent to note that we are currently facing a crisis which has
affected every single person and has brought not only the country but the whole
world to a standstill but our Government has been taking decisive steps at
regular intervals to ensure that every section of the society is benefited
Decisions like Atma Nirbhar Package of Rs20 lakh crore or PM Garib Kalyan
Yojana which has benefited more than 80 crore people are testaments to our
effective governance
Sir the Opposition has been regularly criticizing the decision of lockdown
instead of supporting the government in the fight against Corona It has been
estimated that this decision prevented approximately 14 lakh to 29 lakh cases
and 37000 to 78000 deaths
Further these four months were utilised to create additional health
infrastructure enhance human resource and produce within India critical
elements such as PPEs N-95 masks and ventilators A case in point is increase
in dedicated isolation beds around 363 times and dedicated ICU beds above
246 times to what existed in March 2020
Whereas there was no indigenous manufacturing of PPE with the
requisite standards at that point in time we are now self-sufficient and in a
position to even export the same
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 444
Sir I have few suggestions and recommendations
1 COVID-19 Fund
Under the National Health Mission the Government had in April 2020
announced significant investments to the tune of Rs15000 crores for India
COVID-19 Emergency Response and Health System Preparedness Package
The funds sanctioned will be utilized for immediate COVID-19 Emergency
Response (amount of Rs7774 crores) and rest for medium-term support (1-4
years) to be provided under mission mode approach
For my Ahmednagar Lok Sabha constituency a fund of about Rs 16 crore
has come under the National Health Mission There are two things regarding
that Firstly they have different provisions for purchase of equipment beds and
everything but as of now the situation is such that availability of beds are very
less even if we put an order regarding central oxygen system or facilities you
have advised along with no provision for a rental allowance For example if a
hospital is taken and the hospital has the entire facility of beds central oxygen
system and ventilators the District Collector or the District Administration does
not have funds to give for that hospital
2 Involvement of Member of Parliament
It has been more than 3 months since this package was announced and
even when its Centrally Sponsored it is my personal experience that the
concerned Member of Parliament is not taken into confidence regarding the
utilization of these funds The entire control has been vested with the Collector
who is already overburdened with several other obligations
I am a neurosurgeon and if representatives with specialized medical
knowledge are included while deciding the disbursement of funds under this
package it will ensure a holistic and better decision making process
3 RT - PCR Test
I really appreciate that we have increased the testing I would only make
a few suggestions as to what I have realized in this RT-PCR machine There are
two systems One is open and one is closed There has been increased cases
of variability in testing with negative showing as positive and positive showing
as negative due to the kits being used in an open-based system of PCR That
is very clear evidence that I found in my lab My recommendation would be that
in districts which do not have RT-PCR labs and private labs are available the
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 445
government should provide free kits on the lines of government hospitals to
ensure free investigation by private labs because we cannot bear the cost of the
kit but we are ready to bear the cost of the technicians the electricity etc So
private labs could be wilfully coming forward to do these tests for free
4 Problems being faced due to huge Indian population in fight against COVID-
19
The large Indian population does pose challenges in terms of health
service provision
However in the context of Covid-19 India has two socio-demographic
features that confer advantage First we have a demographically young
population which is better protected against severe illness than older
populations Second nearly two-thirds of India is rural The virus spreads more
slowly in rural areas than in urban areas due to less crowd density shorter
distances that most people commute to work and more open spaces It is
necessary however that we address the need of population stabilisation
through a broad range of strategies
5 Incentives for health workers dealing directly with Corona like doctors nurses
health workers like ASHA etc
There are two types of incentives (a) removal of the hurdles and
grievances that are impeding their work or endangering them (b) positive
incentives for boosting their morale and enhancing their performance
6 Need for self-sufficiency in API Production
From being reasonably self-reliant-both in drug formulation and API
production in the early 1990s India had become mostly import-dependent in
API Last year India imported roughly Rs50000 crore worth of APIs and other
intermediaries that go into production of finished formulations About Rs31740
crore worth of these were from China alone accounting for two-third of API
imports Of the top 20 imported APIs amounting to Rs3610 crore 68 per cent
were from China For production of several medicines import intensity from
China is alarmingly high
In case of streptomycin used in treating tuberculosis (TB) and other
infections nearly all imports are from China In case of penicillin another critical
antibiotic 90 per cent of imports are from China And 70 per cent of rifampicin
API (used for TB treatment) 63 per cent of erythromycin API (an antibiotic used

especially for respiratory infections) 82 per cent of glutamic acid and its salts
(treatment for nerve disorders) 80 per cent of aniline and its salts (for antioxidant
formulations) are imported from China
This Pandemic has brought an opportunity for India to regain its status as
a self-sufficient manufacturer of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients
7 Action against China at the International Level
China has not only created tension at the border but there are also strong
evidences to state that the COVID-19 virus is a lab made virus Chinese
virologist Dr Li-Meng Yan has claimed that coronavirus COVID-19 was made in
a Wuhan laboratory Dr Li-Meng Yan who was associated with Hong Kong
School of Public Health had been researching on the coronavirus for a long
time The Chinese virologist claimed that during her research she came across
that coronavirus was developed in laboratory in China
With these recommendations and suggestions I thank the government
and conclude my speech

SHRI NAMA NAGESWARA RAO (KHAMMAM) Hon Speaker Sir I thank you
for the time allotted to put across my views on the Bill
Whereas the Bill seems to be well intended some of the areas either not
so clear or missing
Policing in India is a State subject which means there are large variations
across the States This includes forensic science facilities as well
-----------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 454
In a large number of cases the results of forensic science aspects are to
be explained jointly with the observations relating to forensic medicine as in case
of poisoning firearm wounds suicides etc Hence it is important that studies in
Forensic medicines are also given due emphasis A burning case in point is the
case of alleged suicide by a Bollywood film actor being investigated and
discussed in media
Further the regional aspects are also to be given due consideration
Every region or State has its own issues and problems be it economic social
and cultural or such other factors or a combination of factors Therefore specific
studies are important and may be promoted even by the institutes of national
importance
There are other institutions of State and Centre that are also engaged in
similar works These institutions academic research centres laboratories and
other field units also need to be developed and integrated with these central and
State universities This will create synergy among them make the outcome
qualitative and more purposeful Such an arrangement will also make our effort
more efficient and avoid duplication as well as highlight areas of focus
It is suggested to create a knowledge-pool of the achievements of all such
institutions regional Central or belonging to States Such a sharing platform will
benefit all these organisations and keep them updated
To derive full benefit of the services of these institutions facilities for early
dissemination of knowledge is needed This will also benefit in identifying the
areas if studies to be given more focus or new areas to be studied
The State of Telangana has opened three regional Forensic Science
Laboratories This has not only made collection of evidence from the scene of
crimes faster but also saved evidences from destruction due to time gap
Further the early expert opinion has resulted in faster completion of
investigation of cases
Under the able and dynamic leadership of our CM of Telangana Shri KCR
garu the State police has brought various reforms in the Department for
providing better policing for the sake of people The State police are
implementing a number of Information Technology (IT) initiative that helped
police in detection and prevention of crimes in the State
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 455
Vacancies have been filled up and the police have come up with several
initiatives to engage with communities People are now bringing issues to the
notice of the police and throw up various facts social media etc and their
grievances are being addressed They are delivering round the clock revises for
crime prevention women safety and all other aspects There have been no
extremists and Maoist activities since the formation of the State
The State Government has made a provision for a sum of Rs 5852 crore
for police Department in the financial year 2020-21 Telangana received special
incentive funds of Rs 769 crore under modernisation scheme of the Centre due
to efficient implementation of police reforms in the State
These achievements show that modernisation of Police Force of the State
is important and the most important factor to strengthen the internal security
Hence the Centre should allocate more and more funds under this scheme and
continue the scheme as modernisation is an ongoing process Also the
allocation under the scheme be made on the basis of need of the State than the
population base so that the State police is able to achieve its modernisation
targets early and people are benefited
The most important aspect is how to take the benefits to the ground
Modalities may be developed to lay a mechanism for sharing of benefits by
stakeholders as early as possible Hon Police Commission reports that even
judicial guidelines could hardly be implemented due to various factors as stated
above Hence it is important that the State police is strengthened and
modernised
Our society is fast changing and so are the needs and aspirations of
people Rapid advancement of technology is making the changes even faster
Hence the needs modes and ways of policing are to be dynamic In this
background such academic institutions are to be dynamic in their approach with
respect to academics and research Only then they can meet the needs of the
society and keep pace with the change Hence keeping the management able
for change is of utmost importance Otherwise studies and efforts may become
irrelevant
Thank you

SHRI ABDUL KHALEQUE (BARPETA) Sir I have two observations to point out First the
passage of the Bill upgrades the existing Raksha University under the Government of
Gujarat which was established in 2009 and second it is only converting a State university
into a Central University
I do not see any reason why the Government is in a hurry to upgrade a State
university which is only a decade old whereas so many State institutions of higher
education across the country are demanding upgradation There are so many autonomous
and Central Government institutes of higher education One of the recent additions in 2018
was National Rail And Transportation Institute in Vadodara Why is the Government only
considering to establish premier institutions in Gujarat alone There are so many States
with lesser number of higher educational institutes We cannot put everything into one
basket There is a need to create a balance all over the country as far as education is
concerned Establishing such institutes also leads to development of that particular area
I can understand that Gujarat is the home State of Modi ji and Amit Shah ji but there are
other States too As one of the representatives of the people of North-East I hereby
demand the establishment of a campus of the university in Assam
I have no reason to hide the fact that the very name lsquoRashtriya Raksha Universityrsquo
is a bit deceiving The Rashtriya Raksha University is proposed to be a multi-disciplinary
university to create new knowledge through research and collaboration with different
stakeholders and help to fulfil the need for a pool of trained professionals with specialised
knowledge and new skill sets in various wings of policing criminal justice system and
correctional administration The university will have a linkage with world class universities
in other countries which will be on need basis for the purpose of exchange of contemporary
research academic collaboration course design technical knowhow training and skill
development

SHRI POCHA BRAHMANANDA REDDY (NANDYAL) Sir this Bill seeks to
provide for the establishment of the Rashtriya Raksha University and declares
the University to be an institution of national importance The Bill also repeals
the 2009 Act Our Party welcomes this initiative
There is an urgent need for institutions to provide police and security
services with the necessary academic knowledge professional skills and
community orientation At present there are only a few institutions in the
country which provide the environment infrastructure and specialisation for
imparting education in police sciences

2159 बज
शरी अधीर रजन चौधरी (बहरामपर) सर ि बोिना चाहता ह ा The Bill only covers close-
out netting The current Bill fails to provide other kinds of bilateral netting
practices for example netting by novation Netting by novation is a contractual
agreement whereby parties agree that all contracts between themselves will be
consolidated into a single contract as soon as each new contract is entered into
It reduces counterparty credit risk by affecting a discharge of each individual
foreign exchange contract or other obligation as it is netted If the Bill is intended
to truly widen the scope of the netting practice in India it could have included
methods such as netting by novation and payment netting
My second point is that there is potential for money-laundering and tax
avoidance Netting is allowed for transfer of money without actual transfer of
money Therefore netting becomes a potential bidding ground for trade-based
money-laundering and tax avoidance practices How will the Bill help in
regulating and offsetting this risk
Thirdly it is an overambitious move It is claimed by the Principal
Economic Adviser Shri Sanjeev Sanyal in an interview that this Bill will act as an
enabler to the corporate default swap market This in turn will help lay the
necessary condition to set up a liquid Indian corporate bond market CDS is not
a prerequisite for setting up a corporate bond market and there are major issues
with regard to regulation and supervision of both the CDS and bond market
which will not be mitigated by the introduction of this legislation What provision
has the Government made to address the regulatory issues arising due to the
legislation
My last point is about the impact on bank capital This Bill may not have a
significant impact on the capital of banks The ratio of market trade to the loan
book of public sector banks is not so high as to generate considerable capital-
saving from bilateral netting Thank you

DR UMESH G JADHAV (GULBARGA) Thank you Speaker Sir for giving
me this opportunity to speak in this august House on COVID-19 pandemic that
is facing the country
As we all know the first case of COVID-19 was found in Kerala on January
30 2020 and the first death due to COVID-19 was reported on March 11 2020
in Kalaburagi district of Karnataka which falls in my parliamentary constituency
It was marked as the countryrsquos first fatality from the global pandemic
The first ever COVID-19 case was recorded in China last year Since then
the virus has spread around the world and in January 2020 it was declared as
pandemic by the World Health Organisation
I would like to tell the House that a research had revealed that India may
record nearly 13 lakh COVID-19 positive cases by mid-May if the spread of virus
is not contained by taking stringent measures and implementing restrictions
India witnessed 101139 COVID-19 cases by 18th May 2020 Initially it was
considered that India was dealing well in containing the number of COVID-19
cases by maintaining social distance and thereby a constricted transmission of
the disease during lockdown period
I would like to say that both the Central Government and the State
Government of Karnataka are working intensely to keep the number of COVID-
19 positive cases minimum The Government is taking all necessary steps ndash by
involving public medical associations nurses NGOs police forces including
paramilitary forces - to combat the challenges and threat posed by this growing
invisible pandemic war The earnest efforts on the part of the frontline workers
especially the doctors nurses healthcare staff sanitation workers police
personnel volunteers with the active support of people of India have resulted in
making the treatment of the patients possible and thereby in controlling this
pandemic
In March we started with only few testing centres performing less than
100 tests per day On 18th September India has conducted over 1000000 tests
in a single day and is having as many as 1764 COVID-19 testing laboratories

The Union Government has announced a Rs20 lakh crore recovery
package to revive our economy A small component of this was allocated to the
Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act as well
I would like to mention that NREGA has offered opportunity to the migrant
workers who were forced to return to their homes jobless to earn their
livelihood In Kalaburagi district more than 55000 migrant workers who were
working in the Capital and other major cities returned home and around 12 lakh
workers moved within the State From 1st April 2020 to 15th September 2020
under NREGA there has been a huge rise in creation of Job Cards and as many
as 98424 people have been enrolled for getting new Job Card Under
MGNREGA approximately 140750 families have been benefitted From 1st
April 2020 to 15th September 2020 4263404 man-days have been generated
This number itself shows how MGNREGA has brought changes in the livelihood
of many families
This pandemic has also seen a huge rise in the number of people who
have taken agriculture as the primary occupation for their livelihood In any case
agriculture is arguably the least affected sectors of the economy It is seen as
the only bright spot in an otherwise dismal economic state which is poised to
gain and is likely to lead the economyrsquos revival process
The bumper rabi harvest is a good sign but farm labour economy has been
adversely affected There has been a large-scale reverse migration of workers
from urban and rural work destinations This will at least in the short run add
workers to the rural work force
In the short run wages are likely to remain sticky and we will witness a
significant increase in demand for work under MGNREGA especially in source
areas which are invariably the poorest If implemented well MGNREGA can
paly an important role in making sure that workers find work and contribute to
improving agriculture sectorrsquos outlook
MGNREGA has another important role which becomes particularly crucial
in COVID-19 pandemic By adopting best practices it acts as a beacon for
establishing the terms of engagement for hiring labour in rural areas In making
an Atmanirbhar Bharat an additional Rs40000 crore has been allocated to
MGNREGA for creation of jobs in Indiarsquos hinterland Earlier in the Budget for
this financial year the Government had allocated Rs61000 crore to
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 362
MGNREGA Thus for the first time ever the total allocation made to MGNREGA
for any financial year comes to over Rs100000 crore
Finally the effectiveness of MGNREGA as a tool for post-COVID-19 rural
economic recovery will depend on three things
1 Whether the local administration is equipped to implement it as a
demand-driven programme
2 Whether village panchayats are well-equipped to take advantage of
it and
3 Whether useful assets are created that will boost local agrarian
economy
With this I would like to conclude my speech Thank you

SHRI DUSHYANT SINGH (JHALAWAR-BARAN) Hon Speaker Sir I thank
you for letting me participate in this discussion on ldquoCOVID-19 Pandemic in the
Countryrdquo under Rule 193
Firstly I would like to thank our hon Prime Minister for his vision and
leadership to drive the country through the pandemic I am sure Speaker Sir
the worst of the pandemic is behind us With declining growth of active cases
and fatality ratio the nation will emerge out stronger from the crisis
It is sad to know that till now more than 85000 people have died in the
country due to the COVID-19 pandemic But I would also like to mention that
India is one of the few countries in the world with lowest mortality rate below 4
per cent even when the mortality rate peaked in April I would like to mention
that in the month of May at the global level the mortality rate had peaked at
more than 7 per cent levels
It is due to the timely measures taken by our hon Prime Minister Shri
Narendra Modi that we have been able to maintain less than 3 of mortality
rate and have successfully continued to reduce the mortality rate below 2 per
cent levels today
Today in India the rate of growth of active cases has fallen to 07 per
cent we can soon expect the growth rate of active cases to fall down close to
zero per cent which is essentially known as ldquoFlattening of the curverdquo for active
cases India has done appreciable job in reducing mortality rate as compared to
the developed economies of the West We all should unanimously appreciate
and laud the Prime Minister for his quick decisions and guidance for the country
It is really sad to see that some States being one of the most developed
States of the country Maharashtra is failing to reduce Test Positivity Rate below
20 per cent It is saddening to see one in every five persons tested testing
positive Many States have done commendable job in increasing testing and
maintaining lower test positivity rate and lower case fatality rate

Secondly we must appreciate the efforts made by doctors nurses para-
medical staff in such times In such difficult times the police forces bureaucrats
have been working overtime away from their family I bow down to them for their
service to the nation in such difficult times There have been a lot of NGOs
thousands of volunteers who have supported the efforts of Government in
checking the spread of COVID-19 virus
I have learnt that about 382 doctors have died on duty the country shall
forever be indebted to them for their service and sacrifice I request the
Government to acknowledge their sacrifice and provide them with appropriate
compensation for their service
Further I also thank all my colleagues from Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha
for their service to the people of their constituency the migrant workers and the
citizens of India during the lockdown
Speaker Sir in my constituency of Jhalawar-Baran along with the
Karyakartas of Bharatiya Janata Party our teams have distributed food packets
dry ration kits ayurvedic kaadha masks sanitizers and even footwear to
migrant workers irrespective of their cast and religion
In Baran district the Karyakarta of BJP have distributed 3700 ration kits
about more than 12 lakh cooked food packet 15000 people were distributed
ayurvedic kaadha We distributed about 32000 masks in socio-economically
backward regions of Baran district In Baran we even helped and supported the
migrant workers passing through on feet About 15000 cooked food packets
were distributed to the migrant workers and 300 pairs of footwear were
distributed
In Jhalawar district the BJP Karyakartas have distributed more than 2
lakh cooked food packets 27700 dry ration kits and 270 pairs of footwear to the
migrant workers
I thank the volunteer who all worked hard towards supporting the people
of Jhalawar-Baran

DR T SUMATHY (A) THAMIZHACHI THANGAPANDIAN (CHENNAI
SOUTH) Hon Speaker Vanakkam
COVlD-19 is an imported disease and self-inflicted disaster It was
originated in China and spread to all countries through humans only The first
COVID-19 positive case was identified in Kerala on 31 January 2020
Thereafter it started to rise through further arrival of foreign passengers and
their immediate contacts So the Government and everyone knew about the
veracity of COVID-19 by January and February 2020 itself No one can dispute
it
By the time that is 18 March 2020 the Union Government had decided
to stop all international passenger flights and banned the entry of anyone from
abroad almost an estimated 25 lakh passengers from abroad have entered and
dispersed across various States corners of India Thus the Coronavirus crisis
started in India a big blunder which could not be resolved till date
If the Government acted in time that is January or February and stopped
those arriving from abroad and isolated those arrived for a month or so then the
country might not get this virus entry into every corner of the country and the
common man might not be at a receiving end Due to lethargic and improperly
acts of the Government the virus spread across the country The Government
should shoulder the responsibility as it failed to act in time and now crushing the
common man who is vulnerable and unbearable to the situation It is not even
extending any sufficient relief to those in need Several households are facing
food scarcity I just leave it to the hon Members sitting in this august House to
understand and judge where when and how it went wrong to reach this
unbearable lockdown
The life of migrant labourers is beyond all levels of suffering The pictures
of the migrant workers leaving the cities by foot with their luggage in one hand
holding the children in other many young men carrying their aged mother or
father on their shoulders the small children walking along with their parents in
sweltering heat without chappals will be etched in our sad memories forever

The ghastly images of migrant workers smashed by a goods train in
Maharashtra cannot be deleted from the dark pages of history which happened
due to the inefficiency and incompetence of the ruling Government
The Government at the Centre blaming the State Governments for their
grave mistakes has become a common phenomenon The ill effects and ground
reality due to COVlD-19 lockdown on the people of this country is still not
ascertained properly Barring the people who get a regular income monthly as
salary or pension all others are suffering a lot Out of the 138-crore population
100 crores are plunged into deep trouble People working as daily wage
labourers those working in unorganised sector farm workers migrant labourers
from various categories lorry tempo taxi and auto drivers domestic workers
have suffered severely due to this self-inflicted COVID-19 crisis
In India there are around one crore drivers who earn their livelihood
through driving vehicles from lorry bus car and auto rickshaws The five months
lockdown has destroyed their career beyond recuperation Those who had
borrowed loan from banks or private lenders for their taxis and autos were
unable to pay their loan dues They too have a family living in a single room
house with aged parents unmarried sisters wives and children We just cannot
imagine the difficulties faced by them during the lockdown period
All I want to say is that the Government has not applied its mind and have
not done enough homework to be in the state of preparedness and readiness to
fight COVlD-19 crisis The Government either failed to analyse the inputs
reaching from China and other countries when the COVlD-19 started there in
December or it is the blatant failure of intelligence and diplomats working in
China and abroad Nevertheless we had three full months of time to prepare
and plan to combat COVlD-19 but failed miserably to be prepared This is due
to the Governmentrsquos preoccupation to prepare for the extravaganza related to
the personal visit of US President during 23rd to 24th February 2020
Secondly when the entire world was busy in preparation to fight COVID-
19 the ruling Government was cunningly cleverly and keenly focused only on
dislodging the duly elected Government in Madhya Pradesh using unethical
means This greediness to derail the duly elected Government has made the
Government insane and insensitive to the early warnings of some senior MPs
and leaders of opposition parties and the Government continued to run
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 377
Parliament till 23rd March 2020 when the Government mission was successfully
accomplished a day before Madhya Pradesh Government was captured and
the very next day full lockdown was announced by the Prime Minister and it
came into effect all over the country without any thoughts on the people
especially the migrant workers That is why when COVID-19 started to spread
in India we did not have even testing kits with us or laboratories to check and
ascertain the COVlD-19 patients There was very low production of protective
gears PPEs masks gloves and we lagged far behind in the supply of sanitisers
too That is the reason why India could not respond effectively to fight against
Corona and the numbers got increased
In India regular testing started happening only in the first week of March
after the emergence of the first few cases Starting with just one laboratory the
Pune-based National Institute of Virology that was testing samples at that time
India now managed to have a network of more than 1100 laboratories that are
conducting these diagnostic tests More than two lakh samples are being tested
every day Considering the large population the penetration of testing is still
quite low Indiarsquos testing numbers per one million population are still low
compared to many other countries
The Government says that economy was badly affected during COVID-
19 lockdown Agreed But was our economy booming in the previous years of
this Government No It is getting bad to worse and worse to worst in the last
six years and has reached point of no return at the moment Today I have no
hesitation in saying that our countryrsquos economy is pushed a clear 20 years back
and it will take several years of herculean works to set it right and put it back
In this precarious condition the countryrsquos economy is reeling under
tremendous pressure and distress Our countryrsquos GDP will certainly show a
negative growth The humongous damage caused to our economy before and
after COVID-19 has pushed us to years backward It may take six years or more
for our country to reach the same position India was in 2013 That too if a steady
8-10 per cent growth in GDP is achieved in the next six years But as of now we
have -239 per cent GDP The internal debt of the country has crossed Rs 100
lakh crore This means we have already lost 12 years I wish the Government
do not commit any hara-kiri and also hope that there will be no more big
calamities or any self-inflicted catastrophe

On the financial front actually the Union government should have
convened a Special Session of Parliament to recalculate and recalibrate the
income possibilities and expenditure priorities as the already passed Budget is
by now unrealistic The Budget 2020-21 passed by Parliament looks
unachievable due to the loss of time and opportunities The priorities have
changed drastically after the COVlD-19 crisis The provisions made for many
projects could be modified postponed or withdrawn accordingly It is therefore
very important to have a Revised Budget 2020-21 with more emphasis on new
initiatives with adequate financial provisions to mitigate the issues and problems
encountered by the people aftermath of COVlD-19 lockdown crisis It is
therefore my humble request to the hon Prime Minister and the Finance
Minister to convene a Special Session of Parliament and make suitable changes
in Budget 2020-21 and make it practically achievable
Government of India should openly announce the details of the trade and
economic deals bilateral treaties signed with China in the last six years and
explain to the people of our country why the Modi Government has signed such
deals with the brutal and treacherous country like China in the last six years in
spite of heavy opposition from nationalists from various corners of the country
The adamant behaviour of leaders of both countries fully know the
imminent danger and disadvantages faced by our country due to these treaties
and trade deals For whose benefit these deals and treaties are signed Order
for an independent authority to probe and find the intricacies of the trade deficits
and economic imbalances in these deals and treaties It is high time for the
Government to speak the truth with the common public Otherwise History will
punish the people who are responsible for this debacle beyond just words
The COVlD-19 crisis has left every profession and professional in the-
lurch be it a Doctor or Engineer or Lawyer a category of people who have
established their career and serving the society The medical practitioners and
their staff are the most affected and in fighting COVID-19 many in this medical
field have lost their invaluable lives The Engineering professionals and IT
professionals were affected very much due to the COVlD-19 lockdown
The COVID-19 crisis has worsened the life of genuine lawyers and their
clients who solely depends on justice to be delivered in time Justice delayed is
Justice denied Courts in India are paralyzed by COVlD-19 crisis and plagued
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 379
by the shortage of Judges The Union Law Ministry is on ldquoKumbhakarna Sleep
Moderdquo
There are 60000 cases pending in the Supreme Court and 45 lakh cases
in 25 High Courts in the country At the District and subordinate court levels the
number of pending cases stand at a shocking Rs 314 crore as of November
2019 27 lakh of these cases are less than years old 85 lakh are pending for
more than five years but less than 10 years and 85 lakh are over 10 year old
The COVlD-19 crisis has paralyzed and the lockdown has knocked down
the Judicial System and most of the genuine lawyers have literally knocked out
of jobs became incomeless clients shed tears of blood But as far as the Judges
and court staffs like Registrars Assistant Registrars Court Marshals etc are
concerned they enjoy a paid lockdown There is not a single penny loss though
they work just 20-30 per cent to their capacity and capabilities
COVID-19 has robbed the people three months of court proceedings and
genuine open court arguments In the absence of any personal interaction or
open court hearings the Registry departments of Courts have become the Demi
Gods and the Judges have literally turned into invisible Lords
The Indian judiciary is already suffering due to the shortage of judges
Nearly 40 per cent of sanctioned number of Judges are still unfilled
Unfortunately the Union Law Ministry and Ministerial people of State
Governments are sleeping as if heavens are not going to fall If the courts are
not functioning to its full potential the Government is least bothered of the
dangerous consequences of paralyzing of our Judicial System not working to
the fullest capacity and potential When everything is lost people look up on
Judiciary and Justice and if that Judicial System is not working to the desired
levels a kind of alleged Police excess and lawlessness in the society is
inevitable It is time to wake up or else expect a catastrophe Hope the top ranks
in the Government and Judiciary will discuss deliberate and come up with some
real solution to address this unprecedented lockdown in Judicial system
If the COVID-19 situation is not going to improve and if the Government
of India does not intervene next few months will witness that several lakh people
packing their baggage permanently back to India As per the recent data there
are about 15 crore NRls and 2 crore PlOs living all around the World The
COVID-19 may force at least one quarter of this 15 crore NRl population and
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 380
10 per cent of the 25 crore PIOs return to India which means at least 50 lakh
people who had a settled life would be unsettled and forced to come back
Countries like Australia Bahrein Bhutan Canada China Germany Italy
Kuwait Malaysia Nepal Netherlands New Zealand Nigeria Oman
Philippines Qatar Saudi Arabia Singapore South Africa Spain UAE UK and
USA have large NRl population While Australia Canada Fiji France Germany
Guyana Indonesia Israel Italy Jamaica Kenya Malaysia Mauritius Myanmar
Netherlands New Zealand Portugal Singapore South Africa Sri Lanka
Suriname Tanzania Thailand Trinidad and Tobago UK and USA have large
PlO population
The plight of those people who were to return to these countries to
continue their education business or professional work will not be permitted until
and unless COVlD-19 situation improves in India thereby causing enormous
stress and suffering to these people The government should find a remedial
solution to this crisis through the diplomatic routes Otherwise the life and career
of these people will be lost
COVID-19 crisis if not for a comprehensive drugvaccine to control the
spread of the virus would affect and alter the demography of the world countries
in the coming months Indian Diaspora is going to be the worst hit I urge the
Union Government to take all possible diplomatic and political administrative
steps to stop or reduce this Demographic relocation
The fishermen community in Tamil Nadu are one of the most affected
communities in the country due to the COVID-19 crisis and the unprecedented
and unplanned lockdown Already year after year the fishermen of coastal
Tamil Nadu were battered by natural calamities as well as from indiscreet
interference by the Sri Lankan counterparts The COVID-19 has completely
collapsed their livelihood Export of Fish and marine products has paralysed
beyond recuperation at this juncture
The coastal corridor in Tamil Nadu consists of 13 districts with 15 major
ports and harbours sandy beaches lakes and river estuaries Tamil Nadu has
a fishermen population of 2 million and the coast consists of three major fishing
harbours three medium fishing harbours and 363 fish landing centres
Unfortunately there have been several incidents of fighting for fishing rights
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 381
between Indian and Sri Lankan fishermen while fishing in the Palk Strait where India
and Sri Lanka are only separated by 12 nautical miles
Fishing has to be recognised at par with agriculture The fisher communities
suffer very much due to natural calamities like cyclone rough sea heavy rains heavy
floods hurricanes and tsunami They need waiving of their loans by Government
COVlD-19 has created a very bad situation for fishermen Governments at both
Centre and State together should provide Rs 5000 to about Rs 50000 to poor
fishermen in Tamil Nadu to mitigate the Coronavirus lockdown crisis
The continuous increase in the price of petroldiesel during the COVlD-19
crisis is like rubbing salt on the wounds People sufferings have reached
threshold levels I urge the Union Government to act with compassion and
common sense to reduce the escalating petroldiesel prices immediately It is
high time for the Government to reduce the petrol and diesel prices Otherwise
people will suffer from an unprecedented agony and pain
Indiarsquos COVlD-19 scenario is going from ldquobad to worserdquo stage to ldquoworse
to the worstrdquo stage and our hon Prime Minister is busy in feeding peacock
writing poems and continue his rhetoric speeches like his usual monthly Mann
Ki Baat It took 110 days for COVID-19 cases in India to reach one lakh while
just 59 days more to go past 10 lakhs Indiarsquos COVID-19 cases rose from 10
lakh to 20 lakhs in 21 days and 20 lakhs to 30 lakhs in just 16 days Indiarsquos
COVID-19 tally had crossed the 20-lakh mark on 7th August and went past 30
lakhs on 23rd August From 30 to 50 lakhs an addition of 20 lakh cases took just
three weeks At this current rate we can presume that by the end of September
Indiarsquos COVID-19 tally would easily cross 60 lakhs With the death toll increasing
steadily there is no way we could expect normalcy by October or November
There could be possibility to impose the lockdown once again till a vaccine to
curb COVlD-19 is discovered and distributed for public use Let us see the
further lsquoAct of Godrsquo is benevolent and merciful
COVID-19 has not spared anyone Even in the high-profile Ministers and
Members of Parliament are being affected Take the case of our Union Home
Minister He is the second most protected person in the country Only the
designated and approved individuals are allowed to meet him or come into any
kind of physical proximity with him Therefore the hon Home Minister getting
infected by COVID-19 and that too when the country needs him 247 he was
indisposed for several days It needs to be probed to ascertain if there is any
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 382
sabbatical move to curb the functioning of the all-powerful Minister l urge the
Government to initiate a fact-finding inquiry in this regard
On one side COVlD-19 has become the biggest health hazard and on the
other side the countryrsquos finance is shrinking like never before When the finances
drying up fast with considerable decline in the revenue the biggest problem for the
Government will be to fund its own projects in the coming months
Sir India is not an under developed country But it has been ruined by
underdeveloped minds This Government has lost its focus and attention and drift
away from economic priorities But it seems to be happy to focus more on divisive
religious ideologies and priorities This Government is not a game changer but only
a name changing Government It is either a slogging Government or just a
sloganeering Government This Government needs mentoring on all aspects of
politics economy and public welfare Electoral success will not guarantee a success
in governance too The real problem of the present Government is that if the pressing
issues are not addressed properly we might see a catastrophe in near future What
we need at the moment is a collective lsquoSave Indiarsquo Movement not a lsquoSlave Indiarsquo
Movement
I am really sorry to say that India has not only lost a golden opportunity to avert
the COVlD-19 but it has failed beyond the recovery in all other fronts It will be an
uphill task for the Government and the people of our country to come out of the
COVlD-19 crisis and its ill effects As far as Tamil Nadu is concerned we have great
people but miserable rulers at the moment Whatever happened we cannot stop now
The most pathetic thing is that people at the helm of affairs at the Government in
Tamil Nadu have indulged in corruption and siphoning of the amount designated for
COVID-19 crisis People are the ultimate sufferers due the inefficient Governments
at Centre and at State which has damaged the social fabric of the country including
Tamil Nadu This is the harsh and bitter truth The difficulties of the people may
increase manyfold once the lockdown is lifted but at the moment there is no way the
Government can lift the lockdown as the COVlD-19 cases in the country are
increasing in lakhs each day and the death toll is reaching one lakh
If this is the situation at the ground level today I cannot imagine how bad it
would turn out after two months when the cold weather and rains engulf the most of
the country COVID-19 crisis has left us with no other choice not because it is serious
but because of the incapable insensitive Governments at both Centre and State

SHRI B B PATIL (ZAHIRABAD) Sir Indias corona virus tally has raced past
the 54-lakh mark as more than 93337 COVID-19 cases were registered in the
last 24 hours according to the latest government figures
The data also underlines that the death toll in the nation has crossed the
86752 figure With a vaccine fit for public circulation still at least six to ten
months away the pandemic continues to ravage the country as
cases of cross-infection rise in the nation
While global health experts and scientists have been warning about the
onset of community transmission in India the Government still maintains that
there is no community spread in the country currently
Community transmission occurs when the source of the
contagion is not known ie when you cannot identify the clear source of
infection in a new community and the virus can infect anyone with no history of
contact with affected people and areas
In this scenario it becomes impossible to trace the original source of
infection back to a carrier
At this stage of the transmission where a person with no travel history or
any contact with infected people can also catch the infection
The national capital which was seemingly on a lsquopath of recoveryrsquo after
hitting the supposed peak in the month of July again started witnessing a sharp
rise in the corona virus cases from the last week of August till now
India has become the second worst affected nation by the COVID-19
pandemic We might soon overtake the USA in the total number of infections
next month
So far COVID-19 infections were heavily concentrated in large cities
located in Indias more prosperous States Delhi Mumbai Chennai among
others
The preparedness of the health system is much higher there than
elsewhere But recorded cases are now rising fast in Indias poorer States
where health services are very fragile
As the COVID-19 crisis absorbs their meager resources many public
health centers have stopped providing routine services
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 384
Even child immunization has been discontinued for months in many
States Some States paint a grim picture of missing doctors unattended
patients broken equipment and stray dogs Where are people with routine
health problems supposed to go
Not to forget the issues faced by disabled persons be it Financial
difficulties lack of access to essential services and little to no
assistance from the government were and still is some of the difficulties that
persons with disabilities have been facing during the COVID-19 and lockdown
In India there is one doctor for every 1457 people as per the
countrys current population estimate of 135 billion which is
lower than the World Health Organisation norm of 11000 as per
the Government
The other reason for a possible mortality spike is that Indias
prolonged national lockdown (from late March until unlock phases
began in June) has destroyed millions of peoples livelihoods
Local lockdowns continue in many States and are likely to persist off and
on for months Unlike affluent countries India has very little to show by way of
a social security system except for food subsidies and some relief work under
the National Rural Employment Guarantee Act
The employment crisis has already hit poor households really hard
Extreme food insecurity during and after the lockdown
Just to cite one 78 percent of the 25000 respondents in the nationwide
CSDS (Centre for the Study of Developing Societies) survey said that they had
found it quite difficult or ldquovery difficult to feed their families during the
lockdown
Acute food insecurity is very likely to translate into higher mortality
For children it also means lasting damage from malnutrition
A recent survey of some 20000 returning migrant workers found that 60
per cent were unable to ensure two square meals for all members of the family
With the local economy in the doldrums except for farming casual
workers are heading for a prolonged period of underemployment and hunger
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 385
With tax revenue a fraction of normal levels State Governments are finding
it difficult to provide more than symbolic relief The Central Government is doing little
to help them
Without much help from the Centre our Telangana Government still has been
taking several measures to tackle COVID-19 cases in the State and provide relief to
the people of the State
The Central Government did launch some limited relief measures during the
national lockdown such as free food-grain rations of five kilograms per person per
month for two thirds of Indias population
But now it seems to have lost interest and left it to the State Governments to
handle the crisis Doctors and nurses critical of the Governments crisis response
have been muzzled or harassed as have many journalists been
Muddled statistics are routinely invoked to reassure the public that all is well
In its hurry to turn India into a viswaguru (world leader) the Modi
Government seems to have little patience for a humanitarian crisis Yet denying a
crisis is the surest way to make it worse There seems no one way of ending the
pandemic in sight We need to bring the focus on controlling the spread of the
disease It can only be achieved through a degree of herd immunity following the
social distancing norms and a safe and effective vaccine
The combination of all three measures will only be helpful in slowing down
the spread of the disease However delivering a vaccine is easier said than done
From timely regulatory approvals to devising protocols for inoculation in a country
like India with over 138 billion population there can be quite a few challenges
authorities will have to tackle
Several countries have already drawn up plans to ensure priority access to
any approved COVID vaccine for the essential workers like defence men healthcare
workers and teaching staff Many also feel that the elderly need to be inoculated
first Indian authorities too need to figure out the priority groups which would need
coverage first
Smoothening out delivery details like this would get rid of confusion and
provide more security to those who could be at a higher risk than others Phased
out vaccination drive instead of or random dosage would also work out for the best
in a country with a sizeable population like India
Steps taken by Telangana Government amid COVID-19

With these few words I conclude

DR KALANIDHI VEERASWAMY (CHENNAI NORTH) I thank you for allowing
this discussion which is very pertinent and appropriate at this time to discuss the
effects of COVID-19 and the Governmentrsquos handling of the situation
I would like to go through the unfolding events in a chronological manner
to remind the House of the events which unfolded The first news of COVID-19
as a global threat started in November 2019 from the news about a deadly
disease killing several people in Wuhan China The Chinese Government
announced lockdown in several regions progressively from 23rd January 2020
Other countries announced lockdown from as early as 12th March 2020
and our hon Prime Minister announced lockdown on 23rd March 2020 which
lasted for almost ten weeks The sudden announcement of the lockdown threw
the country in utter turmoil which created the following difficulties starvation
unemployment no access to medical supplies or help and migrant labour issues
apart from complaints of discrimination and police excesses
Sir I would like to point out that a father and a son duo (Bennix and
Jayaraj) were tortured to death by the Tamil Nadu Police and the opposition
parties and public had to stage huge protests to bring the perpetrators to justice
This shows the extent of police excesses which prevailed in Tamil Nadu
Sir the medical facilities in the initial days of the lockdown were so
unorganised that people were running from pillar to post to get admitted in the
hospitals despite Tamil Nadu having one of the most robust healthcare
infrastructures Thanks to leaders like Perarignar Anna Kalaignar Karunanidhi
and M G Ramachandran
The performance of the Governments both Central and the State were
closely monitored by our Party leader Thiru M K Stalin and constructive
suggestions were provided which were ignored The Chief Minister of Tamil
Nadu gave wrong information like the disease will come under control within a
few days which led to carelessness by the people which further fomented the
spread of infection In addition the deaths of several hundred people were
overlooked with the dead bodies being handed over to family which further
spread the disease among thousands
------------------------
Laid on the Table

Our leader Thiru M K Stalin with his call for ldquoOndrinaivaom Vaardquo which
means lsquoletrsquos unitersquo initiated the programme to feed almost one crore people and
supply medical supplies for the needy I under the able guidance of my leader
was able to feed several thousand families
Sir the efforts of the medical community has to be acknowledged and I
would like to pay homage to hundreds if not more of medical personnel who
lost their lives fighting this dreadful disease It is said that the Government is
unaware of the people who have laid their lives fighting this dreadful disease I
would like to urge the Government to list out the names and honour them their
efforts should not be forgotten as they are martyrs of this country
The Governmentrsquos support for the people has much to be desired The
so-called financial package was a joke with the people of this country The poor
entrepreneurs and MSMEs were all left in the lurch to fend for themselves which
led to starvation deaths migrant labourersrsquo deaths and closure of several
thousand MSMEs
Sir the National Disaster Management Authority headed by the hon
Prime Minister should look into the Report of the Task Force to Review DM Act
2013 which said that the present structure of various authorities under the DM
Act are not conducive for carrying out the tasks it has been mandated to perform
Perhaps if the PM had followed the report the disaster could have been better
managed I hope at least now with lessons learnt from our shortfalls the
Government would strengthen the National Disaster Management Authority as
the days ahead look gloomy with possibility of recurrence of these kinds of
biological attacks manmade or godsent and also with the precarious situation
with our neighbouring countries

SHRIMATI SUPRIYA SADANAND SULE (BARAMATI) According to the World
Bank Policy Note on Gender Dimensions of COVID-19 Pandemic such
pandemics are likely to affect women disproportionately more than men
If we talk about gender implications for health disease exposure in short
term is more for women because of following factors there is a larger share of
women in the health sector and as home and family caregivers which makes
them more exposed to contagion occupational sex-segregation also results in
different levels of exposure - women are more present in client-facing roles in
retail travel leisure and hospitality girls face constraints to access healthcare
services - as per the report by the WHO in India boys are more likely (and
sooner) taken to a qualified health professional for treatment than girls
The recommendation is that providing protective equipment and materials
and COVID-19 testing to higher-risk populations will be key to prevent their
contagion
As far as disruptions in reproductive health care services for women is
concerned the shift in resources towards addressing the public health
emergency can entail disruptions to key health services for women such as
reproductive health services There is for instance evidence of increase in
maternal mortality due to lack of critical resources in similar crises Pregnant
women can be particularly vulnerable in this context
The recommendation is that the pregnant women and maternity wards
require particular attention during the containment phase
Now I am coming to gender implications for education Given the fall in
incomes of households during a pandemic educational investment decisions
are likely to be altered Intra-household allocation of resources for schooling
might be redirected to boys over girls
The recommendation is that targeted measures needed for a section of
girls with no access to lCTs (Internet and Communication Technologies)
The disruption of services with school closures can lead to an increase in
the burden of care-related tasks - likely impacting girls more than boys This will
affect their ability to stay engaged in education in the longer term

Possibility of an increase in child labour and dropouts - during the
pandemic the pressure to contribute to the family income may also increase
with the tightening economic conditions leading to permanent school dropout
The recommendation is that financial incentive programs can help
encourage families to send children back to school when the confinement phase
is over
There are gender implications for employment and economic conditions
Women will likely experience a significant burden on their time given their
multiple care responsibilities as school closures and confinement measures are
adopted possibly leading to reductions in their working time and permanent exit
from the labour market The over-representation of women among the inactive
population and in vulnerable forms of work (such as informal employment or
domestic work) heightens their vulnerability to poverty in times of crisis
The recommendations are the effectiveness of social protection
responses to the crisis can be improved if these gender dimensions are
considered Social messaging as part of the emergency response can
contribute to a more balanced distribution of household responsibilities and
resources between men and women Cash transfer programs to the most
vulnerable groups including women only households (for example single
mothers with children widows or female farmers) will be necessary both as part
of the emergency response and in the longer term Specific programs to support
womens return to economic activity will also play a central role For example-
public works access to training and credit direct provision of productive inputs
to female farmers
Gender implications within household ndash as regards domestic violence an
increase in gender-based violence (and its severity and frequency) due to
confinement can be observed across countries The stretched capacity of
response services might reduce the protection and support available
contributing to a heightened perception of impunity among perpetrators
The recommendation is that protection and support services need to be
in place and increases in the capacity may be required Innovative solutions to
provide reporting mechanisms for women victims and to accommodate them
and their children will be necessary Social awareness will be key as well as
engaging informal support networks and health workers

There are some important concerns in the way the Centre handled the
pandemic The overall Indias response to the pandemic has been reactionary
instead of being preventive and precautionary The Centre failed to ensure sufficient
availability of PPEs to frontline healthcare professionals NGOs and State
Governments responded better to the needs of citizens than the Centre For
example as part of its efforts to ease distress caused by COVID-19 the Pratibha
Foundation in association with the Yashaswini Samajik Abhiyaan has distributed
protective masks hand gloves hand sanitizers and PPE (Personal Protective
Equipment) kits to healthcare personnel at the forefront including police officers
Foundation also aided the needy households who are strapped of their daily wage
income by providing them with basic necessities food ration and served prepared
food daily to people stranded at the Daund railway station Pune
Until mid-July 2020 there were only two laboratories in India to test and certify
quality of Body-Coveralls for COVID-19 In an Unstarred Question on PPE suits
(QNo935 on 18092020) the Centre acknowledged that as of April 2020 there
were only two laboratories in the country which have the facilities as well as
necessary approvals for conducting tests on Body Coveralls (PPE) required for
COVID-19 These are South India Textiles Research Association (SITRA)
Coimbatore and Defence Research amp Development Establishment (DRDE) Gwalior
The Tests and Certifications of Body Coveralls (PPE) conducted at these two
laboratories in India are the only officially recognized ones
It was not until 16th July 2020 that 9 other testing facilities were announced
Such lack of sufficient facilities to test PPEs could have contributed to the delay in
PPE availability to healthcare workers The High-Level Group on Health Sector
constituted by the Fifteenth Finance Commission in May 2018 headed by Dr
Randeep Guleria Director AIIMS recommended shifting health from the State to the
Concurrent List During the times of a pandemic like COVID-19 effective
coordination between Centre and the States inter-state coordination is important to
respond effectively to the pandemic To enable this and to ensure a more active
responsible role for itself the Centre can consider shifting health subject from the
State List to the Concurrent List in the Seventh Schedule of the Constitution
The Fifteenth Finance Commission High-Level Group on Health Sector and
World Bank met on 21st May 2020 To improve the health response mechanisms in
India the World Bank recommended focus on quality of care centrally sponsored
schemes increasing per capita health spending among others Given that COVID-
19 primarily affects the respiratory system it stressed that infectious diseases like
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 396
tuberculosis need attention What suggestions and comments made during this
meeting has the Centre included in its COVID-19 response plan
India COVID-19 Emergency Response and Health Systems Preparedness
Package (ERampHSP) was approved by Cabinet on 22nd April 2020 for Rs 15000
Crores How much of this Fund is actually released or spent on COVID-19 in past
five months since April 20207 How much of this Rs15000 crore is released to the
States and particularly to my State of Maharashtra As per the data Rs 7500 crore
has been allocated for emergency COVID-19 response Rs 4150 crore has been
allocated for strengthening the national and State health system to support prevent
and preparedness Rs 1400 crore has been allocated for strengthening pandemic
research and multi-sector national institutions and platforms for one health Rs 1050
crore has been allocated for community engagement and risk communication and
Rs 900 crore has been allocated for implementation management capacity
building monitoring and evaluation
The Central Government has announced Rs 20 lakh crore package to combat
the impact of COVID-19 in the country How much of this Rs20 lakh crore was
actually infused into the economy since March 20207 How much of this Rs20 lakh
crore was given to my State of Maharashtra
The Centre was insensitive to the needs of an average citizen After the
lockdown was imposed there was a total absence of any supporting action to ramp
up testing expand the medical sector to help the millions of stranded poor workers
and to assist supply chain break In an Unstarred Question on Migrant Workers
(QNo174 on 14092020) the Centre answered that since it maintained no data on
migrant workers deaths during pandemic no compensation will be paid to the
victimrsquos family
There are multiple confusing rules and regulations issued by Central
Government during lockdown The Economist Magazine (June 13) estimated that
India issued well over 4000 different rules during the first two months of the
lockdown many of those rules being corrections of many of those rules A large
number of bureaucratic orders spelling rules and guidelines on a daily basis have
also created chaos among many stakeholders including businesses and the general
public According to PRS Legislative Research there have been 4130 executive
orders from states and the Centre

SHRI SAPTAGIRI SANKAR ULAKA (KORAPUT) Hon Chairman Sir thank
you for the providing opportunity to speak on the COVID-19 pandemic in the
country As the COVID-19 pandemic situation is going out of control day by day
the cases are increasing rapidly in tribal-dominated undivided Koraput district
Though Covid hospitals have been set up in every district most of these
hospitals are not equipped to treat serious or co-morbid patients We have 10
ICU with ventilators in Jeypore and JK Pur Covid hospitals but these ventilators
are mostly non-functional We donrsquot have Specialists oxygen supply
anesthesiologists etc to make these ventilators and subsequently hospitals
functional After following with the State Government multiple times finally
SLNMCampH has been declared as Covid hospital I would request the Central
Government to set up at least 50 ICU BED Covid hospital in Koraput and
specialists deployed from outside to make these beds functional I would also
request that Covid hospitals be provided with sufficient advanced treatment to
the Covid patients and constitute a team of doctors including Professors from
Medical Colleges to treat the patients
Another key issue is referrals Patients have to travel 400-500 km to
Bhubaneswar by road which is very risky for serious patients Hence I would
urge the Government to establish Air Ambulance leveraging the airstrip at
Jeypore so that serious patients can be transferred to Bhubaneswar without
risking their lives
There was a draconian notification by Odisha State Government which
discouraged patients from outside the State capital being referred to
Bhubaneswar Capacity has been built in Bhubaneswar Cuttack to cater to
treatments of patients from across the State This notification prevents patients
specially from tribal-dominated undivided Koraput district to avail treatment from
specialised hospitals in Bhubaneswar Cuttack There should be clear cut
directions from the Central Government to immediately stay such inhumane
notifications

COVID-19 outbreak and lockdown have impacted tribals and forest
dwellers greatly Now the virus has spread to rural areas especially Scheduled
Areas inhabited by tribals Lack of information and awareness among the tribals
and forest dwellers on the pandemic and required protective measures is a
major issue in tribal areas Tribal settlements are remotely located making it
particularly difficult for information to reach these areas The reverse migration
from cities and urban areas also raises concerns about the spreading of virus in
tribal areas
Poor access of tribal and forest dwellers to PDS is reported from across
the States Provisions under the PDS are not adequately provided or are
provided only to cardholders Ensuring good and nutritious security during the
lockdown in tribalOTFD areas needs to be the highest priority At this time PDS
should be provided to all needy families and migrant workers including those
who donrsquot have any identity cards on humanitarian grounds Insistence on
Aadhar card must be suspended during this period Provision of ration
vegetables cooking oil and other essentials should be made available at the
doorstep
The lockdown has affected collection use and sale of minor forest
produces (MFP) or Non-timber Forest Produce (NTFP) by tribals and forest
dwellers An estimated 100 million forest dwellers depend on MFP for food
shelter medicines and cash income The NFP collection season from April to
June provides major income support to tribals and unfortunately it coincided
exactly with the lockdown The MSP a major economic safety net has failed to
deliver due to lack of implementation in most of the States and slashing of
minimum support prices of many NTFPs by the Central Government
The Ministry of Tribal Affairs (MoTA) has written a letter to States
announcing revisions of MSP for 49 MFPs However what is most critical is the
institutional support that does not exist for collection and procurement of MFPs
with immediate payment Proposal for providing support through Van Dhan
Vikas Kendras (VDVKs) and most of VDVKs are non-functional The Particularly
Vulnerable Tribal Groups (PVTGs) are even more vulnerable a special relief
package for PVTGs comprising adequate grains pulses vegetables oil cash
grant soap and medicines should be provided The migration and seasons
access of pastoralists have been restricted due to the lockdown Also pastoral
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 399
communities have been affected as the milk economy faces severe crisis as
procurement and sale has been affected during the lockdown Diversion of forest
land without the consent of Gram Sabha in violation of the FRA continues even
during the lockdown Even as COVID-19 spreads and livelihoods are affected
due to lockdown there are reports of compensatory afforestation (CA)
plantations being carried out on forest land used by tribals and other traditional
forest dwellers including by fencing o such areas accessed for community rights
I would suggest to set up COVID Response Cell in MoTA ensuring appropriate
guidelines and instructions raising awareness and ensuring healthcare
ensuring food security strengthening NTFP-based livelihoods ensuing support
to PVTGs and pastoral communities support communities living in protected
areas prevent forest diversion and ensuring effective implementation of forest
rights
Thank you Sir

SHRIMATI APARUPA PODDAR (ARAMBAGH) COVID-19 a biomedical
disease has serious physical and tremendous mental health implications as it
is a rapidly spreading pandemic Asian countries like India are currently facing
issue of exponential growth in spread of transmission of COVID-19 in slum areas
of urban cities like Dharavi in Mumbai and the under privileged localities of metro
cities like Delhi
During lockdown period in India migrant workers had faced problems
nation-wide due to sudden ban on travel loss of income food shortage and
uncertainty about future More than 300 migrant workers died due to lockdown
with reasons varying from starvation suicide road and rail accidents lack of
medical care etc Due to COVID-19 pandemic migrant workers faced multiple
hardships They should be provided special assistance by the Central
Government as their families are facing problems to live their lives
According to the psycho-social issues among migrant workers they are
suffering from high degree of anxieties and fears There is no medical help from
the Central Government side for the poor People are jobless More effective
steps should be taken by the Government to prevent spread of COVID-19 Hand
sanitizers and masks should also be provided to people in public places and
healthcare should be given free of cost to the common public
This is the time to fight COVID-19 together Further vaccine for COVID-
19 should be given free of cost to the common man by the Central Government
In this COVID-19 times I would urge the Central Government to give special
financial package to Bengal and clear the pending amount which West Bengal
did not get from the Central Government Our Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee
is facing acute fund crisis Still she is fighting for the people of West Bengal in
this COVID-19 situation
Lastly I thank all the doctors nurses and health workers who are really
doing a good job Thank you

SHRI ANNASAHEB SHANKAR JOLLE (CHIKKODI) Honrsquoble Speaker sir
thank you for allowing me to participate in the discussion under Rule 193
regarding COVID-19 pandemic in the country As we all are aware that the
global spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19) followed by lockdowns has
affected global economies including India Government is taking several steps
to ensure that we are well prepared to face the challenges and threats posed by
COVID-19
India recorded the first case of the disease on January 30 2020 Since
then the cases have increased steadily As on today total 5400620 persons
are infected The number of deaths is 86752 Of the total infected persons in
the country 4303044 patients were recovered Globally over 306 million have
been infected of which nearly 21 million have recovered so far At least
955841 people have lost their lives to the virus so far in the world
In order to protect the people and save the life of COVID-19 affected
people both Government hospitals and private healthcare centres in the
country particularly in Karnataka have done great services The doctors nurses
and all the staff including assistants worked on war footing day in and day out
They put their lives at stake to rescue the affected people from the Coronavirus
they are the real warriors It is because of their sacrifice and sincere efforts India
has overtaken the US to become No1 in terms of Coronavirus recoveries As
per the data the recovery rate is 19 per cent of the total global recoveries It is
a significant achievement of the country I congratulate all the Corona warriors
for their great service for the nation The Union Government had also announced
insurance for Corona Warriors providing treatment free of cost if these warriors
get infected by COVlD-19 and in case of death Rs 30 lakh compensation is
given to the kin
The Union government has taken immediate step to issue a clarification
to use of CSR funds to tackle the COVID-19 pandemic The companies were
allowed to take up projects related to promotion of health care including
preventive healthcare sanitation and disaster management

Further Companies (CSR Policy) Rules 2014 were amended to enable
companies to undertake CSR activities in their normal course of business for
undertaking research and development of new vaccine drugs and medical
devices related to COVID-19 for three financial years in collaboration with any
of the institutes or organisations mentioned in item (ix) of the Schedule VII of the
Act
Apart from this the Government of Karnataka has already converted
Victoria Hospital with 1700 ICU beds in Bengaluru into COVID-19 hospital
Private laboratories are already working with the Government Further the
Government want to convert Indira Canteens in Bengaluru as fever clinics to
house needy patients
The Government of India has taken various steps for digital push in
healthcare in the form of eSanjeevani and eSanjeevaniOPD The eSanjeevani
platform has enabled two types of telemedicine services viz Doctor-to-Doctor
(eSanjeevani) and Patient-to-Doctor (eSanjeevani OPD) Tele-consultations
Under the Aatmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyan package several measures were
taken to rescue the overall sections of the people affected by the lockdown
imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic The package aimed at addressing lives
and livelihood issues such as in-kind support like food and cooking gas cash
transfers insurance coverage to healthcare workers wage increase for
MGNREGA workers collateral free loans in support of MSMEs and tax relief
measures to enhance the productive capacity of the economy
Under Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan package around 42 crore poor
people have received financial assistance of Rs 68820 crore as on
7th September 2020 Rs 3 lakh crore Collateral-free Automatic Loans for
Businesses including MSMEs and Rs 45000 crore Partial Credit Guarantee
Scheme 20 for NBFCs are being provided Rs 30000 crore Special Liquidity

Additional Emergency Working Capital Funding for farmers through NABARD is
being provided Borrowing limits of State Governments have been increased
from 3 percent to 5 percent for 2020-21 Rs 50000 crore liquidity through
TDSTCS rate reduction has been affected
Sir the Union Government allocated significant amount in the budget
during the last six years for the Department of Health amp Family Welfare For the
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 405

Narendra Modi ji to combat this COVID-19 pandemic With these words I
conclude my speech Thank you

DR RAJDEEP ROY (SILCHAR) Sir Assam is one of the eight North-East
States of India and often called the Gateway to the North-Eastern Region With
a population of 312 million (as per 2011 Census) spread over 33 administrative
districts Assam has vast geographical area of 78438 square kilometres and
shares international borders with Bhutan and Bangladesh In 2011
the literacy rate of Assam was 7318 per cent (males - 7881 per cent females
- 6727 per cent) The River Brahmaputra (identity for the State) traverses
through various districts of state and finally joins Bay of Bengal The core public
health service in Assam is delivered through an institutional structure that
includes seven functional Medical Colleges twenty-five District Hospitals
fourteen Sub-Divisional Hospitals 177 Community Health Centres 946 Primary
Health Centres 54 Urban Primary Health Centres 4643 Sub-Health Centres
(RHS 2018-19)
The Government of Assam has been successfully managing the COVID-
19 pandemic by adopting multi-pronged comprehensive health systems
strengthening strategies with 3-Ts ndash Testing Tracing and Treatment fully in
tune with the Government of India directives for COVID-19 management
complemented by different state specific safety net initiatives These include
need-based policies professionalism of medical and para-medical fraternity
readiness of health facilities by bridging gaps ensuring availability of logistics
strong support from community and frontline workers engagement of private
hospitals for managing non-COVID cases technical assistance from different
Development Partners support of other Allied State Departments etc
The strong political and administrative commitment shown by Sh
Sarbananda Sonowal hon Chief Minister Dr Himanta Biswa Sarma hon
Minister Health and Family Welfare Government of Assam and Sh Piyush
Hazarika Minister of State Health and Family Welfare a strong team of Senior
Bureaucrats and Health Department Officials Allied Department Staff and
Frontline Warriors have ensured that all strategies and plans as framed are
translated into efficiently implemented interventions Technical support from
different Development Partners such as World Health Organization (Regional
Office) UNICEF Jhpiego Piramal Swasthya and SAATHI have been found very
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 407
useful in designing need-based planning to fight back COVID-19 pandemic
unitedly In addition plan execution partners like HLLPPT APOLLO GVK-
EMRI C-NES Krsnaa Laboratories Spandan TBS etc have also extended
their wholesome support All these comprehensive plans set the ground for
rigorous Testing Tracing Isolating and Treating
The State was able to limit the spread of the pandemic initially with only
100 cases till 17th May 2020 since the reporting of first COVID positive case on
31032020 Thereafter cases started increasing with the relaxation of lockdown
and the return of many Assamrsquos residents back to Assam majority of them came
from other COVID-19 hotspot States To tackle the situation Assam adopted
multi-pronged approaches with a policy which can be termed as ldquoAssam Caresrdquo
under which the principle of very strict quarantine measure ldquoStrict quarantine
with a humane heartrdquo has been followed Different approaches adopted have
been proved successful in managing COVID-19 pandemic
As on 19092020 Assam had 155453 confirmed cases and 125540
recovered cases of COVID with a recovery rate of 8075 per cent (national 763
per cent) and case fatality rate of 028 per cent (national 184 per cent) (Table
1) Assamrsquos weekly average of COVID testing in a day (period from 21-08-2020
to 27-08-2020 as in table 2) is 30322 and the weekly average of confirmed
cases in a day is 1822 with an average positivity rate just about six per cent
The doubling time for the state is 218 days
It is heartening to mention that as on 26th August the tests per million
population (TPM) in Assam are 60404 which is more than double of the national
TPM of 26685 and one of the best in the country with the mortality rate of 028
per cent as one of the lowest in the country
Assam adopted an approach of 3Ts - Testing Tracing and Treatment for
management of COVID-19 pandemic in the State This is in line with the national
testing strategy aggressively tracking comprehensively and treating efficiently
However the Statersquos approach is much more comprehensive and inclusive in
nature with a view to bend the curve of COVID The broad specific actions which
are taken are stated below
1 Ensuring Sufficient availability of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) The
State ensured sufficient availability of PPEs (triple-layer mask N-95 and
PPE) to ensure that all COVID warriors feel confident to work in COVID
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 408
management The initial stock procurement made in March-April 2020
helped us to tide over the period of absolute scarcity without significant
difficulties
2 Gap filling of health facilities Gaps in health facilities mainly Medical
Colleges and District Hospitals were assessed on a war footing scale gaps
were bridged and facilities were made ready to manage COVID patients
The state has currently 25750 isolation beds and 58949 quarantine beds
3 Safety and security of COVID warriors The Health Department of Assam
ensures that after every seven days of duty each health care provider is
quarantined for seven days at quarantine centers and the cost is being borne
by the state Each health care staff is tested before and after quarantine The
success of this is reflected in the low mortality of heath care workers from
COVID in the state Though approximately 1900 plus health care workers
have been infected so far only six deaths have been reported among the
health workers in Assam of which only three were associated with COVID-19
duties
4 Training of staff associated in clinical management of COVID State on
priority trained approximately 3000 number of doctors 11000 para-medical
staff and supporting staff etc using virtual mode on clinical management of
COVID and frontline health worker protection The State also trained 700 final
year MBBS students and 2000 final year nursing students as back up COVID
healthcare providers Still continuous training is undertaken to keep them up
to date in latest treatment protocols as COVID treatment protocols are
evolving
5 Massive IEC campaign for mass awareness of Public on COVID-19 For
mass awareness generation ASHAs are mobilized for door-to-door
awareness campaign to inform community on DOrsquos and DONrsquoTs of COVID-
19 IEC Materials were distributed on signs and symptoms preventive
measures (use of mask hand washing and social distancing) using different
media platforms Hon Health Minister Assam shares regular press briefings
to inform people on COVID-19
6 Active support from frontline workers in generating awareness on COVID
Support of all frontline workers (ASHA ANM MPW) has been found highly
beneficial in reaching the last household with COVID-19 awareness
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 409
messages To ramp up testing state started ldquoAssam Community Surveillance
Program (ACSP)rdquo from 07th May 2020 in around 28000 villageswards of the
State to look for SARI (Severe Acute Respiratory Infections) ILI (Influenza
like Illness) fever dengue malaria diarrhea cases and to carry out
appropriate testing (as per the signs and symptoms) Based on the
encouraging feedback of 1st round of ACSP state is carrying out 2nd round of
ACSP with the name Assam Targeted Surveillance Plan (ATSP) -
NISCHAYATA (ACSP-Phase II) Under NISCHAYATA aggressive testing is
carried out at potential hotspots like market places interstate truck terminals
and parking lots random testing of vulnerable people of Health department
Police Transportation workers and Hotels staff etc This aggressive testing
approach ldquoCHASE THE VIRUSrdquo helped in identifying many COVID patients
and starting their timely treatment
7 Psychological support to patients Understanding the psychological impacts
of COVID-19 on the individual and the society an active intervention named
ldquoMononrdquo meaning lsquodeliberate thinkingrsquo was initiated involving Psychiatry
department Gauhati Medical College and LGB Regional Institute of Mental
Health Tezpur and a set of trained and committed volunteers to provide free
of cost psychiatric counselling and treatment to the COVID affected persons
as well as those who were quarantined As on date more than 32000
patients have been contacted over phone to provide psychiatric assistance
In addition free of cost online yoga training for patients in hospitals and Covid
Care Centres is also given
8 Universal screening and testing Assam took a policy decision to quarantine
everyone entering state (by air train and road) followed by testing and based
on the test report home quarantine is given to them whose test report comes
negative and positive cases are taken to hospital for treatment This
approach of ldquoChase the Virusrdquo was very useful in identifying many cases Till
May 2020 Assam could test only 12 Lac but with the ramping up of testing
facilities and testing state could test 207 Lac till 26th August 2020 From one
laboratory in February 2020 now state has 17 ICMR approved laboratories
Tests per million for Assam are 60404 and the positivity rate is 738 per cent
as on 19092020 Of the tests being done about 60 per cent are through
RT-PCR while about 40 per cent are using the point of care rapid antigen
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 410
tests Given the low sensitivity of antigen tests all symptomatic cases found
negative in the antigen test are re-tested using RT-PCR and necessary
actions are taken based on the test report To give the facility of getting tested
to people at Guwahati City 105 COVID Screening and Counselling Centres
(CCC) have been set up spread over in all the 31 wards of Guwahati Similar
facilities have been arranged in all other districts as well to facilitate public
testing free of cost These facilities provide testing and also counselling to
COVID confirmed cases
9 Setting up of Additional COVID Care Centres (CCC) Assam started setting
up of additional COVID Care Centers (CCC) at different places in the state
because of the increasing COVID positive cases Under this existing
colleges and convention centers where available were converted to COVID
Care Centers to cater to increasing COVID positive cases In addition
temporary structure like German Hangers with facilities like individual cabins
and toilets were prepared in war footing to admit and keep mild cases who
could not practice isolation at home
10 Increasing Oxygen production storage and delivery capacity As continuous
supply of medical oxygen is one of the critical elements for treatment of
COVID-19 the State Government is actively undertaking necessary steps to
arrange for sufficient numbers of oxygen cylinders of various capacities to
transport medical oxygen Cryogenic tanks for keeping liquid oxygen are
being established in GMCH and other medical colleges Oxygen generation
plants and oxygen concentrators are also being installed as per need
Infrastructure to provide oxygen through medical gas pipelines in hitherto
unavailable areas within the hospitals is also being undertaken earnestly
11 Scientific and evidence-based management of COVID-19 patients As the
COVID situation evolved the treatment protocols also evolved in the last few
months against COVID From the initial consideration of azithromycin and
hydroxyl chloroquine treatment protocol of COVID has swiftly moved
towards low molecular weight heparin steroids Inj Remdesivir monoclonal
antibodies like Tocilizumab and Itoluzumab convalescent plasma etc and
the state has progressively and timely adopted all the modern treatment for
COVID-19 patient management Many COVID patients could be brought
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 411
back from ICU and ventilators because of timely actions taken by the expert
health providers
12 Convalescent Plasma Therapy Assam is one of the first states in India to
bring in state of art Convalescent Plasma Bank with necessary facilities at
five Medical Colleges State has started motivating eligible cured COVID
patients to donate plasma and to transfuse plasma to the needy at Medical
Colleges of Assam Till 19092020 almost 1000 people have received
plasma therapy
13 Participation of Private Health Facilities In early phase State took support
from private health facilities in Guwahati Dibrugarh and Cachar (districts with
Medical Colleges) to manage all non-COVID cases while making the medical
colleges functional as fullypartly dedicated COVID hospitals Further with
the evolution of COVID-19 private hospitals are regularly supervised and kept
in loop so as to ensure that standard treatment protocols are followed across
the state irrespective of the status of the hospitals In addition free testing
facilities are being extended to private hospitals also so that the citizens
visiting these hospitals are not charged for testing COVID-19
14 Field level COVID Warriors Health care providers including managerial and
support staff have been working selflessly towards surveillance screening
sample collection supply of logistics transportation of samples to the
laboratories and information sharing with the higher authorities Continuous
training and monitoring through district officials and Zonal Medical College
faculties has helped in maintaining the high standards set by the Government
in dealing with COVID-19 patients
15 Facilitation of Home Isolation State started a unique scheme of supplying
necessary medicines and pulse oximeters to COVID positive patients who
are asymptomatic or mildly infected and prefer to remain in home isolation
These patients are supported by telemedicine and video-consultations
through e-sanjeevani with a tag name- SAMPARK Over a period time it is
expected that most of the mild and asymptomatic cases will prefer to have
home isolation However absolute awareness about the danger signs and
proper knowledge about immediate steps to be taken from the patient side
are very critical Hence efforts are being made to create awareness among
public for early testing and treatment
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 412
16 COVID Sero Survey ICMR on request from the State is conducting the sero
survey to detect antibodies to COVID in the population to assess prevalence
of the SARS-CoV-2 virus in three districts of Assam and the survey report is
likely to be shared with State by early September 2020 Depending on the
feedback the State is also planning to conduct sero survey for Antibody
through ELISA-based tests in large scale as per the requirements for future
planning
As explained above the Government of Assam is undertaking a large
gamut of activities in order to keep the citizens safe and healthy Obviously the
Government of India policy is strictly followed with Statersquos own innovative plans
and implementation of the same All these activities definitely have huge cost
impact and the Statersquos own fund is not enough to meet all the expenses at the
same time Even with the Government of Indiarsquos assistance the expenditure
already made for COVID-19 management with the pending liabilities and future
needs for this financial year alone is a huge burden on the State Government

SHRI UNMESH BHAIYYASAHEB PATIL (JALGAON) Thank you Sir for giving
me an opportunity to take part in this discussion under Rule 193 on a matter of
immense importance which not only concerns our country but also the whole
world which has seen 31 million cases across the world
I would like to thank our Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji under
whose leadership India has led from the front in our fight against this pandemic
and Dr Harsh Vardhan ji who has been working day and night to manage the
situation in an effective manner
The world and several institutions including the WHO are now looking up
to India to lead the fight and the Indian model as an example to emulate Apart
from handling the health pandemic India has also deftly dealt with the economic
situation arising as a result notable among them are the measures taken for the
vulnerable sections of the society who are the worst hit and are expectedly
facing hardships
India would now be playing a more prominent role at the World Health
Organisation WHO with Union Health Minister Dr Harsh Vardhan set to take
charge as Chairman of the WHO Executive Board at its 147th session
Indiarsquos response to COVID-19 has been ldquopre-emptive pro-active and
graded The Government had already put in place a lsquocomprehensive response
systemrdquo at the borders of the country much before the World Health
Organisation declared the coronavirus as a public health emergency of
international concern on January 30 Such a response ensured that there was
no panic among the citizens and avoided inconvenience to the extent possible
The Indian Government has also evacuated its citizens and those of its
neighbours from high-risk countries including China Japan Iran and Italy The
Government started screening of incoming air passengers followed by
suspension of visas and a ban on international flights were done much ahead of
any other country Italy and Spain started screening travellers 25 days and 39
days respectively after the first reported cases
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 416
Equally noteworthy are the various public awareness campaigns Prime
Minister Shri Modi has shown leadership in mobilizing the Heads of Governments of
the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) and that of the G-20
to share reliable information best practices and support each other in fighting this
pandemic
I will conclude with some suggestions to further bolster our fight against
corona
My first suggestion is the scope of Ayushman Bharat Indiarsquos flagship
insuranceassurance scheme launched with the vision of universal healthcare and
leaving no one behind should be expanded to include the 40 per cent lsquomissing
middlersquo who are neither covered by private insurance nor by the Government so that
any COVID-19 related expenses are covered by the Government
My second suggestion is this Businesses have a responsibility towards their
employees Those employees who are not on any permanent contract often become
the first casualty of cost cutting measures and are the most vulnerable It will be
critical for businesses to ensure all such employees continue to get paid and that
companies can partner with the Government to ensure their health coverage
My third suggestion is this The Constitution of India distributes the legislative
powers between the Centre and the States under the Seventh Schedule Services
related to public health sanitation hospitals and dispensaries are categorised under
Entry 6 of List II and is the responsibility of the States The rationale to entrust the
responsibility of public health and sanitation to the States is because the health
requirements vary from one State to another
But when it comes to making effective response strategy for tackling
pandemics that affect the health of the population around the country it becomes
imperative for the Union to spearhead the nationwide planning in consort with the
State Governments
In fact given their inherent challenges it becomes implicit for the States to
look up to the Union Government for a direct intervention to mobilise their medical
resources and devise efficient strategies for routing the resources where it is most
needed
With these suggestions I conclude my speech

SHRI NABA KUMAR SARANIA (KOKRAJHAR) Hon Speaker Sir I am
thankful to you for allowing me to speak on the COVID-19 discussion under
Rule 193
In my State three Governments are functioning namely the Central
Government State Government and BTC When the lockdown was declared
the BTC Assembly elections were going on Later on 27th April 2020 the
Governor Rule was imposed in the BTC Till today Model Code of Conduct is
imposed there
Sir yesterday I came to know that Assam Government had written to the
Election Commission of Assam to postpone the BTC elections But I think it is
not the right solution The people of the BTC have suffered so much during the
lockdown and Model Code of Conduct The BTC election procedure up to
symbol distribution has been completed Only six to seven days are left for
competing the BTC Assembly Elections I think it is possible by maintaining all
the COVID-19 protocols before 27th October 2020
So I would request the Central Government to please advise the State
Government to strictly maintain the COVID-19 guidelines in the BTC area
because in their campaigning so many parties have organised mass gatherings
and even some responsible State Ministers have participated there by violating
the social distancing norms Some were even not wearing masks
So these norms should be followed strictly I will extend all the possible
support to the State Government and the Central Government in this regard
Thank you

SHRI JAGDAMBIKA PAL (DOMARIYAGANJ) Respected hon Speaker Sir I
rise to lay on the table of the House the facts on the discussion under rule 193
on COVID-19 Pandemic in the country
Sir the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare acknowledged the
emergence of a new coronavirus (COVID-19) that was spreading across China
The first Indian case of COVID 19 was reported on 30th January 2020 The
Ministry of Home Affairs announced a 21-day lockdown to contain the spread of
COVID-19 from March 25 2020 to April 14 2020 As the spread increased and
more information about the virus was uncovered the Central Government
announced several policy decisions to contain it
Further measures were also announced to support citizens and
businesses who were affected by such containment measures India started
point of entry screening of passengers at ports airports and land border
crossings Under Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Yojana to provide relief against
COVID-19 the Finance Minister announced a relief package of 17 lakh crore
rupees for the poor An Insurance cover of Rs50 lakh was provided to health
workers (such as doctors nurses paramedics and ASHA workers) who are
treating patients of COVID-19 About 80 crore poor people got five kilograms of
wheat or rice and one kilogram of preferred pulses were also provided for free
every month Women account holders under the Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan
Yojana got Rs500 per month and also free gas cylinders were distributed to the
needy people
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has constituted an Advisory Committee
to review the Ways and Means Advances (WMA) limits for States and UTS
WMA limits refer to temporary loans given by the RBI to State Governments
Until the Committee submits its final recommendations the WMA limit has been
increased by 30 from the existing limit for all States and UTs The revised
limits will be in force between April 1 and September 30 2020
Sir todays our Government has reached the level of more than 12 lakh
COVID tests per day This strongly demonstrates an exponential increase
COVID-19 testing infrastructure in the country
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 419
The countrys testing capacities have multiplied manifold From
conducting merely 10000 tests per day on 8th April the daily average has
crossed 12 lakhs today In addition for treatment of those affected by COVID
the Government is implementing Ayushman Bharat-Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya
Yojana under which 601 coaches have been converted into Covid Care Centres
by Indian Railways
Sir in all 4621 Shramik Special trains have been operated between 1st
May 2020 to 31st August 2020 carrying 6319 lakhs stranded passengers to
their home states From Zero manufactures to 1100 indigenous manufacturing
of PPE kits shows the Central Government achievement in tackling the problem
of COVIDndash19 An amount of Rs11092 crore has been provided under State
Disaster Risk Management Fund to all States to tackle COVID-19
Sir I would like to request that 90 oxygen cylinders may be used for
COVID patient and the rest 10 may be used for other chronic diseases The
steps taken by our Government to tackle the problem of COVID-19 pandemic is
very praiseworthy I am therefore fully satisfied and also appreciate the major
allocation of funds to the States as well as to the poor people to overcome the
problem of COVID Pandemic

SHRI P P CHAUDHARY (PALI) Iniarsquos response to COVID-19 has been pre-
emptive pro-active and graded The country has already put in place a
comprehensive response system at its borders much before the WHO declared
it as a public health emergency of international concern which is January
302020
Many of my friends are criticizing the announcement of lockdown I would
like to call their bluff and remind them if the lockdown was not announced in a
sudden manner it would have created a havoc People distressed lining for
tickets price rise of essential commodities and travel plans the crowded
movement of masses would have spread COVID-19 from the urban to far flung
distant corners of the country
Under such extraordinary circumstances where we knew not what was
the propensity of the threat from disease which originated in China where even
the WHO was misled a good leadership leads with confidence works for the
betterment of situation and arrange for facilities needed PM Shri Modi was able
to announce the lockdown at such short notice because he had made
arrangements prior to announcement different from the Congress era when
announcements were done with distant dreams of materialization in future which
never happened
Coming to PM Garib Kalyan Yojana on March 26 when the Government
announced a relief package of Rs17 lakh crore under the Pradhan Mantri Garib
Kalyan Yojana for the poor the Opposition was doing politics and bickering on
social media tapping from the comforts of their air-conditioned homes and
offices
In pursuance of the pro-poor announcement made under the Pradhan
Mantri Garib Kalyan package as part of the economic response to COVID-19
the Government of India had launched the scheme for additional allocation of
foodgrains from the Central pool at the rate of five kilogram per person per month
free of cost for all the beneficiaries covered under the Targeted Public
Distribution System (TPDS) (AAY amp PHH) including those covered under the
DBT for a period of three months that is April-June 2020
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 421
Accordingly about 121 LMT of foodgrain was allotted to approximately
8096 crore beneficiaries entailing a subsidy outgo of nearly Rs46061 crore
Necessary orders were issued on 30032020
The scheme was further extended as part of economic response to
COVID-19 for another five months from July to November 2020 for distribution
to all the beneficiary households under the National Food Security Act 2013
(NFSA) at the rate of five kilogram per person per month free of cost for all the
beneficiaries covered under the Targeted Public Distribution System
(TPDS)National Food Security Act (NFSA) Accordingly about 201 LMT of
foodgrains have been allotted to approximately 8043 crore beneficiaries
entailing subsidy outgo of nearly Rs7606212 crore Till June 30 2020
Rs18000 crore has been transferred to the bank accounts of more than nine
crore farmers and Rs50000 crore is being spent on PM Garib Kalyan Rojgar
Abhiyaan which has been started to provide employment opportunities
Coming to Aatma Nirbhar Bharat we never took refuge behind COVID-19
pandemic to shy from our responsibilities but we saw this as an opportunity to
develop India and launched the Aatma Nirbhar Bharat Scheme Hon Prime
Minister Shri Narendra Modi on May 12 2020 announced the special economic
and comprehensive package of Rs20 lakh crore which is equivalent to 10 per
cent of Indiarsquos GDP to fight the COVID-19 pandemic in India Indiarsquos self-
reliance is ingrained in the happiness cooperation and peace of the world with
the sacrosanct belief that this is the culture which believes in the welfare of the
world for all the living creatures and the one which considers the whole world
as a family Its premise is ldquoिाता भकि पतरो अहि पकथवयrsquo -the culture that considers
the earth to be the mother And when the Bharat Bhumi becomes self-sufficient
it ensures the possibility of a prosperous world Indiarsquos progress has always
been integral to the progress of the world He gave a clarion call for Aatma
Nirbhar Bharat or Self-Reliant India Movement
To provide relief to the business additional working capital finance of 20
per cent of the outstanding credit as on 29th February 2020 in the form of a term
loan at a concessional rate of interest would be provided This would be available

SHRI TEJASVI SURYA (BANGALORE SOUTH) Hon Speaker at the outset
I wish to thank the hon Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji for effectively
handling the COVID-19 pandemic
By taking speedy and seemingly harsh measures prioritising the health of
the citizens of the country PM Modi Ji has ensured that India has one of the
lowest COVID-19 deaths per million population An early lockdown called by the
PM potentially saved upto 70000 lives and more than 29 lakh cases While
India stayed indoors and obeyed the Prime Ministerrsquos call he constituted the
PMCARES Fund for supplying ventilators and improving the health infrastructure
of the country After India entered the unlock stage Prime Minister Modi
unveiled a slew of reforms in the form of the Atmanirbar Bharat Scheme to
mitigate the economic hardship faced by MSMEs street vendors migrant
labourers and practically every other citizen Similarly the PM Garib Kalyan Ann
Yojana ensured that no citizen would go hungry despite the country experiencing
the worst global pandemic in a century
My State Karnataka under the leadership of hon Chief Minister Shri BS
Yedurappa has also managed to control the pandemic effectively True to its
tag of being the Tech Capital of the country my city Bengaluru utilized
technology and implemented unique solutions to assist citizens during the
lockdown and beyond
Soon after the lockdown was announced we set up a Bengaluru South
MP Coronavirus Task Force with the help of more than 4000 dedicated
volunteers to attend to citizensrsquo emergency requirements The Task Force
volunteers are available 247 on the number 99464 99464 We formed area-
wise WhatsApp groups to assist senior citizens pregnant women migrant
workers and other distressed people during the lockdown period They
extended all non-COVID medical support in the form of assistance in procuring
medicines and groceries delivering food packets to the needy and also feeding
stray dogs They also provided free and compassionate psychological
counselling The Task Force also tied up with cab aggregator Ola to provide
free taxi rides to hospitals for non-COVID medical emergencies
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 426
During the lockdown period the MP Coronavirus Task Force handled
5000 individual requests provided 2600 free Ola cab rides to hospitals served
450000 meals served to underprivileged sections and migrant workers and
handed out 35000 free ration kits for the migrants and needy
Bengaluru further proved its credentials of being the startup capital of the
country when we established the Home Line what is possibly Indiarsquos first
WhatsApp bot-enabled e-commerce platform
The Home Line was a phone number (080 61914960) accessible both by
call and WhatsApp set up for the home delivery of essentials from your nearest
grocer or medical store in Bengaluru We brought together 30 competing
startups from Bengaluru mapped every retailer in the city and unleashed about
10000 delivery executives to take essentials to the doorsteps of citizens Using
Cloud Calling system of Kaleyra call center employees of (24)7ai working for
the Home Line would note the order for groceries or medicines and generate a
ticket The ticket would be passed on to a delivery executive from Dunzo
Swiggy Rapido Shadowfax or House Joy The delivery executive would
proceed to purchase the items from the grocer or medical store located closest
to the caller and deliver the items
During the lockdown period the Home Line of Bengaluru received 17059
orders on WhatsApp and 2137 orders placed on phone It enabled the delivery
of 14049 orders and served 30000 people in Bengaluru
Bengaluru finally opened up during the Unlock phase and we noticed an
increase in the number of daily cars We once again came up with a technology
solution to handle the outbreak called COVID Raksha
COVID Raksha can be accessed by phone and WhatsApp by using the
same helpline number 080 6191 4960 Citizens can report COVID-19
symptoms enquire about test request for doctor assistance and expert advice
and seek guidance on turning positive and take initiative to reach out for urgent
care It also facilitates the shifting of patients in distress to hospitals across
Bengaluru
The Office of the MP partnered with Swasth Project Stepone Kaleyra
Fortis Hospitals (24)7ai ACT Grants Cartoon Mango SRL Diagnostics Hey
Doc Pharmeasy Portea Medical ITW Consulting and Spykke Technologies to
power the platform
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 427
Through COVID Raksha (as on 10th September) we have answered
10700 calls from citizens on the coronavirus infection and conducted 3465
sessions on WhatsApp We have completed 1698 triaging of symptoms on
Swasth and facilitated 582 hospital transfers The COVID Raksha so far has
handled 96 advanced emergency cases and provided life-saving care to citizens
in Bengaluru
With this hon Speaker I would like to thank citizens for enabling us to
serve them I also would like to thank the Prime Minister once again for showing
exemplary leadership during such times Together we will fight this pandemic

SHRI PC MOHAN (BANGALORE CENTRAL) Hon Speaker Sir thank you
for allowing me to participate in the discussion under Rule 193
regarding COVID-19 pandemic in the country
The latest data shows that 54 lakhs 620 cases confirmed cases and
around 86752 deaths and 4303044 patients have already been cured as
on today
Sir India is the second largest democracy in the world with the population
of more than 135 crore In such a big country to enforce a lockdown and prevent
people to stop their daily activities and business is not a matter of joke It is
known to all of us
Even then our Union Government under the leadership of Shri Narendra
Modi ji has taken very effective steps to impose the lockdown to protect people
As a Prime minister of the country he has taken a very bold step He did not
think twice about the ill effects of the economic situation caused by lockdown
He gave top priority to save the lives of people of the country He took the people
of the country into confidence by interacting with them frequently through the
National media and lsquoMann Ki Baatrsquo programmes I congratulate the hon Prime
Minister for his bold initiatives And I am thankful to the people of the country for
showing their respect and honor the words of the hon Prime Minister
ldquoIn a landmark global achievementrdquo India has overtaken the US to
become No1 in terms of coronavirus recoveries accounting for close to 19 per
cent of the total global recoveries It is because of the great sacrifice done by
the healthcare service providers
In order to protect the people and save the life of covid-19 affected people
both Government hospitals and private health care centers in the country
particularly in Karnataka have done great services The doctors nurses and all
the staff including assistances worked on war footing day in and day out They
put their lives at stake to rescue the affected people from the coronavirus They
are the real warriors I am thankful to all the corona warriors for their great
service for the nation
This is reflected in the Government Response Stringency Index measured by
Oxford University which says that India enforced one of the most stringent
lockdowns
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 429
Our BJP Government in the Center and also in the state of Karnataka have taken
several measure to manage situation risen out of the COVID-19 pandemic on a war
footing ldquoDedicated hospitals for the treatment of the
infected fever clinics and Covid care centres in Bengaluru and in all other
district headquarters of the State were set up apart from quarantine
facilities to identify and isolate the infected personsrdquo
Atmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyana
On May 12 Government announced Atmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyana
Package a special economic and comprehensive package of Rs 20 lakh
crore - equivalent to 10 per cent of Indiarsquos GDP - to combat the impact of
the COVID-19 pandemic in India Later on the lockdown was considerably eased in the
months of July August and September Now there is a gradual improvement in growth of
Manufacturing core industries E-way bills Kharif sowing power
consumption railway freight cargo traffic and passenger vehicle sales etc
Ayushman Bharat program
The Government has launched Ayushman Bharat program and Pradhan Mantri Jan
Arogya Yojana for the people Under this the Government provides health coverage of
Rs 5 lakh per family per annum to more than 10 crore poor and vulnerable families for
secondary and tertiary care
hospitalization Our BJP Government is making all the efforts sincerely to
augment the health infrastructure to combat COVID-19 pandemic in the
country
Allocation of Funds
As far as the budget allocation is concerned in the interim budget of 2019- 20
around 22 per cent has been allocated to the Department of Health amp Family Welfare
During the year 2015-16 Government health expenditure is 118 per cent of GDP The
allocation is constantly increasing during the BJP
Government for the last six years The National Health Policy 2017
envisages increasing public health expenditure to 25 per cent of GDP by
2025 Our BJP Government is making all the efforts to achieve this target
With the constant efforts and encouragement of the union Government a major
achievement made by Tata CRISPR in finding an advanced test for Covid-19 The Tata
CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats) test achieves the
highest accuracy levels than the traditional RT-PCR tests It takes quicker turnaround time
and less expensive equipment and better ease of use
With these words I conclude my speech Thank you Sir

SHRI RAM MOHAN NAIDU KINJARAPU (SRIKAKULAM) Thank you hon
Speaker Sir for giving me the opportunity to speak on the discussion on COVID-
19 pandemic in the country
First of all I would like to pay my tribute and pass on my condolences to
the families of all the doctors nurses health workers police and to all those
who have worked on a frontline and have lost their lives due to COVID-19
pandemic I would like to thank the hon Minister of External Affairs Dr
Subrahmanyam Jaishankar Ji who has helped in bringing back people who
were stranded outside India and I would also like to thank all the State
Governments who have helped in bringing migrants of Andhra Pradesh back to
their homes I would also like to thank all the MPs who have worked
tremendously in their constituencies during the crisis Right now they are
fulfilling their constitutional duties in the Parliament While we are discussing
this the COVID-19 cases have passed the 54-lakh mark with as many as 92605
new cases reported today The country has lost around 87000 lives in the
pandemic
My State Andhra Pradesh has seen a total of 8218 new cases today and
the total confirmed cases in the State is 617776 The Statersquos tally is the second
highest after Maharashtra My constituency Srikakulam has seen total of
30000 cases and 280 deaths till now
Hon Speaker Sir this discussion on COVID-19 should have been taken
up during the Budget Session when we were aware that our country would have
to face this pandemic Having a discussion at that time would have helped us
formulate our response to tackle the crisis more effectively
I would also like to commend the efforts of the Government of India and
its bold if not timely decision to implement the most comprehensive lockdown
anywhere in the world Being one of the most populated countries in the world
we needed it at that time to calibrate our responses to tackle the global crisis
and also to save our economy We also needed it to upgrade the health
infrastructure and increase the capacity of beds to meet the demand that might
arise due to this pandemic
------------------------
Laid on the Table

Sir after six months of the lockdown when we are in the 4th stage of the
unlock process now the question then arises did we use the time on our hands
effectively and efficiently
If we look at the Annualised figures of GDP for April-June quarter then
the scenario becomes more dire
India -75 per cent
UK -599 per cent
Germany -33 per cent
USA -317 per cent
Japan -278 per cent
China -546 per cent
If we look at quarter-over-quarter GDP growth between April-June 2020
over January-March 2020
India -2928 per cent
UK -204 per cent
Germany -97 per cent
USA -909 per cent
Japan -78 per cent
China -115 per cent
During an interaction of the hon Prime Minister with the Leaders of the
Parliamentary Parties on 8th April 2020 I had suggested that in order to come
out of this lockdown and protect our economy a stimulus package to the tune
of at least 10 per cent of the GDP needs to be announced This was accepted
by the hon Finance Minister and she announced a package in the same line on
12th May 2020
Of Rs 20 lakh crore stimulus package announced nearly 50 per cent of
it is in the form of liquidity measures to help banks and NBFCs to increase
lending business to stimulate growth While demand was subdued due to
COVID-19 situation banks and NBFCs were also reluctant to lend due to
potential NPA concerns Therefore the stimulus package announced for various
MSMEs and small businesses was also not in the form of grants but in the form
of loans food supply for migrant labourers and some infrastructural support
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 439
The actual expenditure of the Government is negligible with most burden on the
RBI and institutions like NABARD etc
The Government has also planned to tap construction workers fund
mineral fund and compensatory fund etc The Government has just recycled its
schemes and allocations already counted for in the budgetary allocations As
part of the COVID-19 package of Rs 54 lakh crore package announced for
MSMEs the actual cost to the Government is estimated at Rs 25000 crore only
For this as I have suggested previously the Government should review
its capital and revenue expenditure plans and classify them under three heads
as critical essential and desirable The one which is being required and is
urgent is critical the one which is being required but not urgent is essential
and the one which is not being required and also not urgent is desirable The
Government should delay the expenditure that is not critical and divert that
amount towards the second stimulus package
We are all facing the same storm but we are not sailing in the same boat
While some sectors have prospered during these pandemic times others such
as construction travel restaurant MSMEs across all the verticals have
suffered the most
If you look at the employment report -- recently released by CMIE it states
that during the April-July period about 19 million salaried people lost their jobs
in India While salaried jobs are not easily lost but once lost they are also far
more difficult to retrieve
The package needs to be focussed on providing financial support to those
industries which see the largest loss in employment so that they have the funds
to rehire or save the jobs of their employees So the financial support and
stimulus package need to be directed to support the most vulnerable people and
businesses
While unemployment number is increasing the businesses are also
facing shortage of labour which is becoming the cause for a concern We need
to figure out a way to get the right people to the right place in order to kick start
the economic activity For this I suggest that the migrant labourers be provided
some incentives to get back to their work sites They should also be provided
some travel incentives increased healthcare facilities at labour camps to handle
COVID infections and mobile ration cards etc
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 440
During the lockdown period we have seen many gains in terms of
reduction in the levels of pollution better sanitation and hygiene and that needs
to be sustained
These measures would surely bring economy back on track in some time
However for the welfare of the people I would like to mention a few points
Under the Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Yojana insurance cover will be provided
to 2212 lakh health care providers including public healthcare providers and
private hospital staff The insurance provided will be above any other insurance
cover being availed by the beneficiary and does not require any additional
registration The premium for it will be borne by the Ministry of Health and Family
Welfare The insurance scheme was operationalised on March 30 and will be in
force till September 2020 which is extended for a further period of time of 180
days The claims of these workers should be processed quickly The police
officials who are doing their duties during these Corona times have no
insurance So the Government should introduce a similar kind of a scheme for
them as well
After the COVID-19 pandemic fishermen are in dire need of assistance
When the lockdown was announced many fishermen were in the high seas and
when they came back there were no traders and the supply chains were
crashed It resulted in the severe loss of income to the fishermen We are still in
the middle of the pandemic and the demand of fisheries is still low and therefore
they are struggling hard to meet their day to day needs As part of the
Atmanirbhar Bharat package Rs 20000 crore has been allocated to Pradhan
Mantri Matsya Sampada Yojana but it does not contain any provision for
financial assistance to the hard hit fishermen The fishermen are not even
included in PM-KISAN Scheme which they have demanded for so long I request
the Government to constitute a Fishermen Welfare Fund and sanction a special
grant to formulate schemes related to providing compensation during this tough
time Andhra Pradeshrsquos economy is significantly dependent on fisheries and
fishermen and even Andhra Pradesh has significantly contributed in the total fish
production in India
Srikakulam is also a major source of outmigration of fishermen and other
migrant workers and has recently witnessed all the migrants returning to home
especially from Veraval in Gujarat and also from Chennai The unemployment
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 441
among them has increased the job demand under MNREGA and it is the highest
ever after 2007 They need job and wages to meet their day-to-day needs very
badly The Gareeb Kalyan Rojgar Abhiyaan has been introduced to provide
livelihood to migrants who are back home in 116 districts in 6 States of India but
Srikakulam has not been included in spite of being a backward district In fact
not even one district of Andhra Pradesh has been included Andhra Pradesh has
seven backward districts out of total of 13 districts
The number of COVID-19 cases could go up in Srikakulam due to limited
availability of hospitals and COVID-care centres Therefore due to shortage of
beds patients with mild symptoms are sent back to their homes I request to
grant Rs 50 crore from PM CARES Fund to establish new COVID care centre
in the district
Under the Pradhan Mantri Street Vendorrsquos Atmanirbhar Nidhi Scheme
(PM SVANidhi Scheme) only the street vendors of urban local bodies are
included But in Srikakulam in the State of Andhra Pradesh many fish vendors
especially women work at the rural places as well If they can also be included
it would be better
With this I thank you for giving me this opportunity to speak

DR SUJAY VIKHE PATIL (AHMEDNAGAR) Thank you Sir for giving me a
chance to speak in this very important discussion on the outbreak of Corona
Pandemic in India Sir today as I stand to speak on this issue I would like to
begin with paying my tributes to the Corona warriors which include doctors
healthcare workers sanitation workers police staff and everyone who has
strengthened our fight against this virus
I would like to place on record my appreciation and gratitude to our Prime
Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji who has led from the front and with his decisive
leadership we have been able to successfully fight this battle I also thank Dr
Harshvardhan Ji for spearheading the efforts of the Ministry of Health and Family
Welfare
It is pertinent to note that we are currently facing a crisis which has
affected every single person and has brought not only the country but the whole
world to a standstill but our Government has been taking decisive steps at
regular intervals to ensure that every section of the society is benefited
Decisions like Atma Nirbhar Package of Rs20 lakh crore or PM Garib Kalyan
Yojana which has benefited more than 80 crore people are testaments to our
effective governance
Sir the Opposition has been regularly criticizing the decision of lockdown
instead of supporting the government in the fight against Corona It has been
estimated that this decision prevented approximately 14 lakh to 29 lakh cases
and 37000 to 78000 deaths
Further these four months were utilised to create additional health
infrastructure enhance human resource and produce within India critical
elements such as PPEs N-95 masks and ventilators A case in point is increase
in dedicated isolation beds around 363 times and dedicated ICU beds above
246 times to what existed in March 2020
Whereas there was no indigenous manufacturing of PPE with the
requisite standards at that point in time we are now self-sufficient and in a
position to even export the same
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 444
Sir I have few suggestions and recommendations
1 COVID-19 Fund
Under the National Health Mission the Government had in April 2020
announced significant investments to the tune of Rs15000 crores for India
COVID-19 Emergency Response and Health System Preparedness Package
The funds sanctioned will be utilized for immediate COVID-19 Emergency
Response (amount of Rs7774 crores) and rest for medium-term support (1-4
years) to be provided under mission mode approach
For my Ahmednagar Lok Sabha constituency a fund of about Rs 16 crore
has come under the National Health Mission There are two things regarding
that Firstly they have different provisions for purchase of equipment beds and
everything but as of now the situation is such that availability of beds are very
less even if we put an order regarding central oxygen system or facilities you
have advised along with no provision for a rental allowance For example if a
hospital is taken and the hospital has the entire facility of beds central oxygen
system and ventilators the District Collector or the District Administration does
not have funds to give for that hospital
2 Involvement of Member of Parliament
It has been more than 3 months since this package was announced and
even when its Centrally Sponsored it is my personal experience that the
concerned Member of Parliament is not taken into confidence regarding the
utilization of these funds The entire control has been vested with the Collector
who is already overburdened with several other obligations
I am a neurosurgeon and if representatives with specialized medical
knowledge are included while deciding the disbursement of funds under this
package it will ensure a holistic and better decision making process
3 RT - PCR Test
I really appreciate that we have increased the testing I would only make
a few suggestions as to what I have realized in this RT-PCR machine There are
two systems One is open and one is closed There has been increased cases
of variability in testing with negative showing as positive and positive showing
as negative due to the kits being used in an open-based system of PCR That
is very clear evidence that I found in my lab My recommendation would be that
in districts which do not have RT-PCR labs and private labs are available the
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 445
government should provide free kits on the lines of government hospitals to
ensure free investigation by private labs because we cannot bear the cost of the
kit but we are ready to bear the cost of the technicians the electricity etc So
private labs could be wilfully coming forward to do these tests for free
4 Problems being faced due to huge Indian population in fight against COVID-
19
The large Indian population does pose challenges in terms of health
service provision
However in the context of Covid-19 India has two socio-demographic
features that confer advantage First we have a demographically young
population which is better protected against severe illness than older
populations Second nearly two-thirds of India is rural The virus spreads more
slowly in rural areas than in urban areas due to less crowd density shorter
distances that most people commute to work and more open spaces It is
necessary however that we address the need of population stabilisation
through a broad range of strategies
5 Incentives for health workers dealing directly with Corona like doctors nurses
health workers like ASHA etc
There are two types of incentives (a) removal of the hurdles and
grievances that are impeding their work or endangering them (b) positive
incentives for boosting their morale and enhancing their performance
6 Need for self-sufficiency in API Production
From being reasonably self-reliant-both in drug formulation and API
production in the early 1990s India had become mostly import-dependent in
API Last year India imported roughly Rs50000 crore worth of APIs and other
intermediaries that go into production of finished formulations About Rs31740
crore worth of these were from China alone accounting for two-third of API
imports Of the top 20 imported APIs amounting to Rs3610 crore 68 per cent
were from China For production of several medicines import intensity from
China is alarmingly high
In case of streptomycin used in treating tuberculosis (TB) and other
infections nearly all imports are from China In case of penicillin another critical
antibiotic 90 per cent of imports are from China And 70 per cent of rifampicin
API (used for TB treatment) 63 per cent of erythromycin API (an antibiotic used
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 446
especially for respiratory infections) 82 per cent of glutamic acid and its salts
(treatment for nerve disorders) 80 per cent of aniline and its salts (for antioxidant
formulations) are imported from China
This Pandemic has brought an opportunity for India to regain its status as
a self-sufficient manufacturer of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients
7 Action against China at the International Level
China has not only created tension at the border but there are also strong
evidences to state that the COVID-19 virus is a lab made virus Chinese
virologist Dr Li-Meng Yan has claimed that coronavirus COVID-19 was made in
a Wuhan laboratory Dr Li-Meng Yan who was associated with Hong Kong
School of Public Health had been researching on the coronavirus for a long
time The Chinese virologist claimed that during her research she came across
that coronavirus was developed in laboratory in China
With these recommendations and suggestions I thank the government
and conclude my speech

SHRI NAMA NAGESWARA RAO (KHAMMAM) Hon Speaker Sir I thank you
for the time allotted to put across my views on the Bill
Whereas the Bill seems to be well intended some of the areas either not
so clear or missing
Policing in India is a State subject which means there are large variations
across the States This includes forensic science facilities as well
-----------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 454
In a large number of cases the results of forensic science aspects are to
be explained jointly with the observations relating to forensic medicine as in case
of poisoning firearm wounds suicides etc Hence it is important that studies in
Forensic medicines are also given due emphasis A burning case in point is the
case of alleged suicide by a Bollywood film actor being investigated and
discussed in media
Further the regional aspects are also to be given due consideration
Every region or State has its own issues and problems be it economic social
and cultural or such other factors or a combination of factors Therefore specific
studies are important and may be promoted even by the institutes of national
importance
There are other institutions of State and Centre that are also engaged in
similar works These institutions academic research centres laboratories and
other field units also need to be developed and integrated with these central and
State universities This will create synergy among them make the outcome
qualitative and more purposeful Such an arrangement will also make our effort
more efficient and avoid duplication as well as highlight areas of focus
It is suggested to create a knowledge-pool of the achievements of all such
institutions regional Central or belonging to States Such a sharing platform will
benefit all these organisations and keep them updated
To derive full benefit of the services of these institutions facilities for early
dissemination of knowledge is needed This will also benefit in identifying the
areas if studies to be given more focus or new areas to be studied
The State of Telangana has opened three regional Forensic Science
Laboratories This has not only made collection of evidence from the scene of
crimes faster but also saved evidences from destruction due to time gap
Further the early expert opinion has resulted in faster completion of
investigation of cases
Under the able and dynamic leadership of our CM of Telangana Shri KCR
garu the State police has brought various reforms in the Department for
providing better policing for the sake of people The State police are
implementing a number of Information Technology (IT) initiative that helped
police in detection and prevention of crimes in the State
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 455
Vacancies have been filled up and the police have come up with several
initiatives to engage with communities People are now bringing issues to the
notice of the police and throw up various facts social media etc and their
grievances are being addressed They are delivering round the clock revises for
crime prevention women safety and all other aspects There have been no
extremists and Maoist activities since the formation of the State
The State Government has made a provision for a sum of Rs 5852 crore
for police Department in the financial year 2020-21 Telangana received special
incentive funds of Rs 769 crore under modernisation scheme of the Centre due
to efficient implementation of police reforms in the State
These achievements show that modernisation of Police Force of the State
is important and the most important factor to strengthen the internal security
Hence the Centre should allocate more and more funds under this scheme and
continue the scheme as modernisation is an ongoing process Also the
allocation under the scheme be made on the basis of need of the State than the
population base so that the State police is able to achieve its modernisation
targets early and people are benefited
The most important aspect is how to take the benefits to the ground
Modalities may be developed to lay a mechanism for sharing of benefits by
stakeholders as early as possible Hon Police Commission reports that even
judicial guidelines could hardly be implemented due to various factors as stated
above Hence it is important that the State police is strengthened and
modernised
Our society is fast changing and so are the needs and aspirations of
people Rapid advancement of technology is making the changes even faster
Hence the needs modes and ways of policing are to be dynamic In this
background such academic institutions are to be dynamic in their approach with
respect to academics and research Only then they can meet the needs of the
society and keep pace with the change Hence keeping the management able
for change is of utmost importance Otherwise studies and efforts may become
irrelevant
Thank you

SHRI ABDUL KHALEQUE (BARPETA) Sir I have two observations to point out First the
passage of the Bill upgrades the existing Raksha University under the Government of
Gujarat which was established in 2009 and second it is only converting a State university
into a Central University
I do not see any reason why the Government is in a hurry to upgrade a State
university which is only a decade old whereas so many State institutions of higher
education across the country are demanding upgradation There are so many autonomous
and Central Government institutes of higher education One of the recent additions in 2018
was National Rail And Transportation Institute in Vadodara Why is the Government only
considering to establish premier institutions in Gujarat alone There are so many States
with lesser number of higher educational institutes We cannot put everything into one
basket There is a need to create a balance all over the country as far as education is
concerned Establishing such institutes also leads to development of that particular area
I can understand that Gujarat is the home State of Modi ji and Amit Shah ji but there are
other States too As one of the representatives of the people of North-East I hereby
demand the establishment of a campus of the university in Assam
I have no reason to hide the fact that the very name lsquoRashtriya Raksha Universityrsquo
is a bit deceiving The Rashtriya Raksha University is proposed to be a multi-disciplinary
university to create new knowledge through research and collaboration with different
stakeholders and help to fulfil the need for a pool of trained professionals with specialised
knowledge and new skill sets in various wings of policing criminal justice system and
correctional administration The university will have a linkage with world class universities
in other countries which will be on need basis for the purpose of exchange of contemporary
research academic collaboration course design technical knowhow training and skill
development

SHRI POCHA BRAHMANANDA REDDY (NANDYAL) Sir this Bill seeks to
provide for the establishment of the Rashtriya Raksha University and declares
the University to be an institution of national importance The Bill also repeals
the 2009 Act Our Party welcomes this initiative
There is an urgent need for institutions to provide police and security
services with the necessary academic knowledge professional skills and
community orientation At present there are only a few institutions in the
country which provide the environment infrastructure and specialisation for
imparting education in police sciences

शरी अधीर रजन चौधरी (बहरामपर) सर ि बोिना चाहता ह ा The Bill only covers close-
out netting The current Bill fails to provide other kinds of bilateral netting
practices for example netting by novation Netting by novation is a contractual
agreement whereby parties agree that all contracts between themselves will be
consolidated into a single contract as soon as each new contract is entered into
It reduces counterparty credit risk by affecting a discharge of each individual
foreign exchange contract or other obligation as it is netted If the Bill is intended
to truly widen the scope of the netting practice in India it could have included
methods such as netting by novation and payment netting
My second point is that there is potential for money-laundering and tax
avoidance Netting is allowed for transfer of money without actual transfer of
money Therefore netting becomes a potential bidding ground for trade-based
money-laundering and tax avoidance practices How will the Bill help in
regulating and offsetting this risk
Thirdly it is an overambitious move It is claimed by the Principal
Economic Adviser Shri Sanjeev Sanyal in an interview that this Bill will act as an
enabler to the corporate default swap market This in turn will help lay the
necessary condition to set up a liquid Indian corporate bond market CDS is not
a prerequisite for setting up a corporate bond market and there are major issues
with regard to regulation and supervision of both the CDS and bond market
which will not be mitigated by the introduction of this legislation What provision
has the Government made to address the regulatory issues arising due to the
legislation
My last point is about the impact on bank capital This Bill may not have a
significant impact on the capital of banks The ratio of market trade to the loan
book of public sector banks is not so high as to generate considerable capital-
saving from bilateral netting Thank you

DR UMESH G JADHAV (GULBARGA) Thank you Speaker Sir for giving
me this opportunity to speak in this august House on COVID-19 pandemic that
is facing the country
As we all know the first case of COVID-19 was found in Kerala on January
30 2020 and the first death due to COVID-19 was reported on March 11 2020
in Kalaburagi district of Karnataka which falls in my parliamentary constituency
It was marked as the countryrsquos first fatality from the global pandemic
The first ever COVID-19 case was recorded in China last year Since then
the virus has spread around the world and in January 2020 it was declared as
pandemic by the World Health Organisation
I would like to tell the House that a research had revealed that India may
record nearly 13 lakh COVID-19 positive cases by mid-May if the spread of virus
is not contained by taking stringent measures and implementing restrictions
India witnessed 101139 COVID-19 cases by 18th May 2020 Initially it was
considered that India was dealing well in containing the number of COVID-19
cases by maintaining social distance and thereby a constricted transmission of
the disease during lockdown period
I would like to say that both the Central Government and the State
Government of Karnataka are working intensely to keep the number of COVID-
19 positive cases minimum The Government is taking all necessary steps ndash by
involving public medical associations nurses NGOs police forces including
paramilitary forces - to combat the challenges and threat posed by this growing
invisible pandemic war The earnest efforts on the part of the frontline workers
especially the doctors nurses healthcare staff sanitation workers police
personnel volunteers with the active support of people of India have resulted in
making the treatment of the patients possible and thereby in controlling this
pandemic
In March we started with only few testing centres performing less than
100 tests per day On 18th September India has conducted over 1000000 tests
in a single day and is having as many as 1764 COVID-19 testing laboratories

The Union Government has announced a Rs20 lakh crore recovery
package to revive our economy A small component of this was allocated to the
Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act as well
I would like to mention that NREGA has offered opportunity to the migrant
workers who were forced to return to their homes jobless to earn their
livelihood In Kalaburagi district more than 55000 migrant workers who were
working in the Capital and other major cities returned home and around 12 lakh
workers moved within the State From 1st April 2020 to 15th September 2020
under NREGA there has been a huge rise in creation of Job Cards and as many
as 98424 people have been enrolled for getting new Job Card Under
MGNREGA approximately 140750 families have been benefitted From 1st
April 2020 to 15th September 2020 4263404 man-days have been generated
This number itself shows how MGNREGA has brought changes in the livelihood
of many families
This pandemic has also seen a huge rise in the number of people who
have taken agriculture as the primary occupation for their livelihood In any case
agriculture is arguably the least affected sectors of the economy It is seen as
the only bright spot in an otherwise dismal economic state which is poised to
gain and is likely to lead the economyrsquos revival process
The bumper rabi harvest is a good sign but farm labour economy has been
adversely affected There has been a large-scale reverse migration of workers
from urban and rural work destinations This will at least in the short run add
workers to the rural work force
In the short run wages are likely to remain sticky and we will witness a
significant increase in demand for work under MGNREGA especially in source
areas which are invariably the poorest If implemented well MGNREGA can
paly an important role in making sure that workers find work and contribute to
improving agriculture sectorrsquos outlook
MGNREGA has another important role which becomes particularly crucial
in COVID-19 pandemic By adopting best practices it acts as a beacon for
establishing the terms of engagement for hiring labour in rural areas In making
an Atmanirbhar Bharat an additional Rs40000 crore has been allocated to
MGNREGA for creation of jobs in Indiarsquos hinterland Earlier in the Budget for
this financial year the Government had allocated Rs61000 crore to
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 362
MGNREGA Thus for the first time ever the total allocation made to MGNREGA
for any financial year comes to over Rs100000 crore
Finally the effectiveness of MGNREGA as a tool for post-COVID-19 rural
economic recovery will depend on three things
1 Whether the local administration is equipped to implement it as a
demand-driven programme
2 Whether village panchayats are well-equipped to take advantage of
it and
3 Whether useful assets are created that will boost local agrarian
economy
With this I would like to conclude my speech Thank you

SHRI DUSHYANT SINGH (JHALAWAR-BARAN) Hon Speaker Sir I thank
you for letting me participate in this discussion on ldquoCOVID-19 Pandemic in the
Countryrdquo under Rule 193
Firstly I would like to thank our hon Prime Minister for his vision and
leadership to drive the country through the pandemic I am sure Speaker Sir
the worst of the pandemic is behind us With declining growth of active cases
and fatality ratio the nation will emerge out stronger from the crisis
It is sad to know that till now more than 85000 people have died in the
country due to the COVID-19 pandemic But I would also like to mention that
India is one of the few countries in the world with lowest mortality rate below 4
per cent even when the mortality rate peaked in April I would like to mention
that in the month of May at the global level the mortality rate had peaked at
more than 7 per cent levels
It is due to the timely measures taken by our hon Prime Minister Shri
Narendra Modi that we have been able to maintain less than 3 of mortality
rate and have successfully continued to reduce the mortality rate below 2 per
cent levels today
Today in India the rate of growth of active cases has fallen to 07 per
cent we can soon expect the growth rate of active cases to fall down close to
zero per cent which is essentially known as ldquoFlattening of the curverdquo for active
cases India has done appreciable job in reducing mortality rate as compared to
the developed economies of the West We all should unanimously appreciate
and laud the Prime Minister for his quick decisions and guidance for the country
It is really sad to see that some States being one of the most developed
States of the country Maharashtra is failing to reduce Test Positivity Rate below
20 per cent It is saddening to see one in every five persons tested testing
positive Many States have done commendable job in increasing testing and
maintaining lower test positivity rate and lower case fatality rate

Secondly we must appreciate the efforts made by doctors nurses para-
medical staff in such times In such difficult times the police forces bureaucrats
have been working overtime away from their family I bow down to them for their
service to the nation in such difficult times There have been a lot of NGOs
thousands of volunteers who have supported the efforts of Government in
checking the spread of COVID-19 virus
I have learnt that about 382 doctors have died on duty the country shall
forever be indebted to them for their service and sacrifice I request the
Government to acknowledge their sacrifice and provide them with appropriate
compensation for their service
Further I also thank all my colleagues from Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha
for their service to the people of their constituency the migrant workers and the
citizens of India during the lockdown
Speaker Sir in my constituency of Jhalawar-Baran along with the
Karyakartas of Bharatiya Janata Party our teams have distributed food packets
dry ration kits ayurvedic kaadha masks sanitizers and even footwear to
migrant workers irrespective of their cast and religion
In Baran district the Karyakarta of BJP have distributed 3700 ration kits
about more than 12 lakh cooked food packet 15000 people were distributed
ayurvedic kaadha We distributed about 32000 masks in socio-economically
backward regions of Baran district In Baran we even helped and supported the
migrant workers passing through on feet About 15000 cooked food packets
were distributed to the migrant workers and 300 pairs of footwear were
distributed
In Jhalawar district the BJP Karyakartas have distributed more than 2
lakh cooked food packets 27700 dry ration kits and 270 pairs of footwear to the
migrant workers
I thank the volunteer who all worked hard towards supporting the people
of Jhalawar-Baran

DR T SUMATHY (A) THAMIZHACHI THANGAPANDIAN (CHENNAI
SOUTH) Hon Speaker Vanakkam
COVlD-19 is an imported disease and self-inflicted disaster It was
originated in China and spread to all countries through humans only The first
COVID-19 positive case was identified in Kerala on 31 January 2020
Thereafter it started to rise through further arrival of foreign passengers and
their immediate contacts So the Government and everyone knew about the
veracity of COVID-19 by January and February 2020 itself No one can dispute
it
By the time that is 18 March 2020 the Union Government had decided
to stop all international passenger flights and banned the entry of anyone from
abroad almost an estimated 25 lakh passengers from abroad have entered and
dispersed across various States corners of India Thus the Coronavirus crisis
started in India a big blunder which could not be resolved till date
If the Government acted in time that is January or February and stopped
those arriving from abroad and isolated those arrived for a month or so then the
country might not get this virus entry into every corner of the country and the
common man might not be at a receiving end Due to lethargic and improperly
acts of the Government the virus spread across the country The Government
should shoulder the responsibility as it failed to act in time and now crushing the
common man who is vulnerable and unbearable to the situation It is not even
extending any sufficient relief to those in need Several households are facing
food scarcity I just leave it to the hon Members sitting in this august House to
understand and judge where when and how it went wrong to reach this
unbearable lockdown
The life of migrant labourers is beyond all levels of suffering The pictures
of the migrant workers leaving the cities by foot with their luggage in one hand
holding the children in other many young men carrying their aged mother or
father on their shoulders the small children walking along with their parents in
sweltering heat without chappals will be etched in our sad memories forever

The ghastly images of migrant workers smashed by a goods train in
Maharashtra cannot be deleted from the dark pages of history which happened
due to the inefficiency and incompetence of the ruling Government
The Government at the Centre blaming the State Governments for their
grave mistakes has become a common phenomenon The ill effects and ground
reality due to COVlD-19 lockdown on the people of this country is still not
ascertained properly Barring the people who get a regular income monthly as
salary or pension all others are suffering a lot Out of the 138-crore population
100 crores are plunged into deep trouble People working as daily wage
labourers those working in unorganised sector farm workers migrant labourers
from various categories lorry tempo taxi and auto drivers domestic workers
have suffered severely due to this self-inflicted COVID-19 crisis
In India there are around one crore drivers who earn their livelihood
through driving vehicles from lorry bus car and auto rickshaws The five months
lockdown has destroyed their career beyond recuperation Those who had
borrowed loan from banks or private lenders for their taxis and autos were
unable to pay their loan dues They too have a family living in a single room
house with aged parents unmarried sisters wives and children We just cannot
imagine the difficulties faced by them during the lockdown period
All I want to say is that the Government has not applied its mind and have
not done enough homework to be in the state of preparedness and readiness to
fight COVlD-19 crisis The Government either failed to analyse the inputs
reaching from China and other countries when the COVlD-19 started there in
December or it is the blatant failure of intelligence and diplomats working in
China and abroad Nevertheless we had three full months of time to prepare
and plan to combat COVlD-19 but failed miserably to be prepared This is due
to the Governmentrsquos preoccupation to prepare for the extravaganza related to
the personal visit of US President during 23rd to 24th February 2020
Secondly when the entire world was busy in preparation to fight COVID-
19 the ruling Government was cunningly cleverly and keenly focused only on
dislodging the duly elected Government in Madhya Pradesh using unethical
means This greediness to derail the duly elected Government has made the
Government insane and insensitive to the early warnings of some senior MPs
and leaders of opposition parties and the Government continued to run
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 377
Parliament till 23rd March 2020 when the Government mission was successfully
accomplished a day before Madhya Pradesh Government was captured and
the very next day full lockdown was announced by the Prime Minister and it
came into effect all over the country without any thoughts on the people
especially the migrant workers That is why when COVID-19 started to spread
in India we did not have even testing kits with us or laboratories to check and
ascertain the COVlD-19 patients There was very low production of protective
gears PPEs masks gloves and we lagged far behind in the supply of sanitisers
too That is the reason why India could not respond effectively to fight against
Corona and the numbers got increased
In India regular testing started happening only in the first week of March
after the emergence of the first few cases Starting with just one laboratory the
Pune-based National Institute of Virology that was testing samples at that time
India now managed to have a network of more than 1100 laboratories that are
conducting these diagnostic tests More than two lakh samples are being tested
every day Considering the large population the penetration of testing is still
quite low Indiarsquos testing numbers per one million population are still low
compared to many other countries
The Government says that economy was badly affected during COVID-
19 lockdown Agreed But was our economy booming in the previous years of
this Government No It is getting bad to worse and worse to worst in the last
six years and has reached point of no return at the moment Today I have no
hesitation in saying that our countryrsquos economy is pushed a clear 20 years back
and it will take several years of herculean works to set it right and put it back
In this precarious condition the countryrsquos economy is reeling under
tremendous pressure and distress Our countryrsquos GDP will certainly show a
negative growth The humongous damage caused to our economy before and
after COVID-19 has pushed us to years backward It may take six years or more
for our country to reach the same position India was in 2013 That too if a steady
8-10 per cent growth in GDP is achieved in the next six years But as of now we
have -239 per cent GDP The internal debt of the country has crossed Rs 100
lakh crore This means we have already lost 12 years I wish the Government
do not commit any hara-kiri and also hope that there will be no more big
calamities or any self-inflicted catastrophe

On the financial front actually the Union government should have
convened a Special Session of Parliament to recalculate and recalibrate the
income possibilities and expenditure priorities as the already passed Budget is
by now unrealistic The Budget 2020-21 passed by Parliament looks
unachievable due to the loss of time and opportunities The priorities have
changed drastically after the COVlD-19 crisis The provisions made for many
projects could be modified postponed or withdrawn accordingly It is therefore
very important to have a Revised Budget 2020-21 with more emphasis on new
initiatives with adequate financial provisions to mitigate the issues and problems
encountered by the people aftermath of COVlD-19 lockdown crisis It is
therefore my humble request to the hon Prime Minister and the Finance
Minister to convene a Special Session of Parliament and make suitable changes
in Budget 2020-21 and make it practically achievable
Government of India should openly announce the details of the trade and
economic deals bilateral treaties signed with China in the last six years and
explain to the people of our country why the Modi Government has signed such
deals with the brutal and treacherous country like China in the last six years in
spite of heavy opposition from nationalists from various corners of the country
The adamant behaviour of leaders of both countries fully know the
imminent danger and disadvantages faced by our country due to these treaties
and trade deals For whose benefit these deals and treaties are signed Order
for an independent authority to probe and find the intricacies of the trade deficits
and economic imbalances in these deals and treaties It is high time for the
Government to speak the truth with the common public Otherwise History will
punish the people who are responsible for this debacle beyond just words
The COVlD-19 crisis has left every profession and professional in the-
lurch be it a Doctor or Engineer or Lawyer a category of people who have
established their career and serving the society The medical practitioners and
their staff are the most affected and in fighting COVID-19 many in this medical
field have lost their invaluable lives The Engineering professionals and IT
professionals were affected very much due to the COVlD-19 lockdown
The COVID-19 crisis has worsened the life of genuine lawyers and their
clients who solely depends on justice to be delivered in time Justice delayed is
Justice denied Courts in India are paralyzed by COVlD-19 crisis and plagued
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 379
by the shortage of Judges The Union Law Ministry is on ldquoKumbhakarna Sleep
Moderdquo
There are 60000 cases pending in the Supreme Court and 45 lakh cases
in 25 High Courts in the country At the District and subordinate court levels the
number of pending cases stand at a shocking Rs 314 crore as of November
2019 27 lakh of these cases are less than years old 85 lakh are pending for
more than five years but less than 10 years and 85 lakh are over 10 year old
The COVlD-19 crisis has paralyzed and the lockdown has knocked down
the Judicial System and most of the genuine lawyers have literally knocked out
of jobs became incomeless clients shed tears of blood But as far as the Judges
and court staffs like Registrars Assistant Registrars Court Marshals etc are
concerned they enjoy a paid lockdown There is not a single penny loss though
they work just 20-30 per cent to their capacity and capabilities
COVID-19 has robbed the people three months of court proceedings and
genuine open court arguments In the absence of any personal interaction or
open court hearings the Registry departments of Courts have become the Demi
Gods and the Judges have literally turned into invisible Lords
The Indian judiciary is already suffering due to the shortage of judges
Nearly 40 per cent of sanctioned number of Judges are still unfilled
Unfortunately the Union Law Ministry and Ministerial people of State
Governments are sleeping as if heavens are not going to fall If the courts are
not functioning to its full potential the Government is least bothered of the
dangerous consequences of paralyzing of our Judicial System not working to
the fullest capacity and potential When everything is lost people look up on
Judiciary and Justice and if that Judicial System is not working to the desired
levels a kind of alleged Police excess and lawlessness in the society is
inevitable It is time to wake up or else expect a catastrophe Hope the top ranks
in the Government and Judiciary will discuss deliberate and come up with some
real solution to address this unprecedented lockdown in Judicial system
If the COVID-19 situation is not going to improve and if the Government
of India does not intervene next few months will witness that several lakh people
packing their baggage permanently back to India As per the recent data there
are about 15 crore NRls and 2 crore PlOs living all around the World The
COVID-19 may force at least one quarter of this 15 crore NRl population and
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 380
10 per cent of the 25 crore PIOs return to India which means at least 50 lakh
people who had a settled life would be unsettled and forced to come back
Countries like Australia Bahrein Bhutan Canada China Germany Italy
Kuwait Malaysia Nepal Netherlands New Zealand Nigeria Oman
Philippines Qatar Saudi Arabia Singapore South Africa Spain UAE UK and
USA have large NRl population While Australia Canada Fiji France Germany
Guyana Indonesia Israel Italy Jamaica Kenya Malaysia Mauritius Myanmar
Netherlands New Zealand Portugal Singapore South Africa Sri Lanka
Suriname Tanzania Thailand Trinidad and Tobago UK and USA have large
PlO population
The plight of those people who were to return to these countries to
continue their education business or professional work will not be permitted until
and unless COVlD-19 situation improves in India thereby causing enormous
stress and suffering to these people The government should find a remedial
solution to this crisis through the diplomatic routes Otherwise the life and career
of these people will be lost
COVID-19 crisis if not for a comprehensive drugvaccine to control the
spread of the virus would affect and alter the demography of the world countries
in the coming months Indian Diaspora is going to be the worst hit I urge the
Union Government to take all possible diplomatic and political administrative
steps to stop or reduce this Demographic relocation
The fishermen community in Tamil Nadu are one of the most affected
communities in the country due to the COVID-19 crisis and the unprecedented
and unplanned lockdown Already year after year the fishermen of coastal
Tamil Nadu were battered by natural calamities as well as from indiscreet
interference by the Sri Lankan counterparts The COVID-19 has completely
collapsed their livelihood Export of Fish and marine products has paralysed
beyond recuperation at this juncture
The coastal corridor in Tamil Nadu consists of 13 districts with 15 major
ports and harbours sandy beaches lakes and river estuaries Tamil Nadu has
a fishermen population of 2 million and the coast consists of three major fishing
harbours three medium fishing harbours and 363 fish landing centres
Unfortunately there have been several incidents of fighting for fishing rights
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 381
between Indian and Sri Lankan fishermen while fishing in the Palk Strait where India
and Sri Lanka are only separated by 12 nautical miles
Fishing has to be recognised at par with agriculture The fisher communities
suffer very much due to natural calamities like cyclone rough sea heavy rains heavy
floods hurricanes and tsunami They need waiving of their loans by Government
COVlD-19 has created a very bad situation for fishermen Governments at both
Centre and State together should provide Rs 5000 to about Rs 50000 to poor
fishermen in Tamil Nadu to mitigate the Coronavirus lockdown crisis
The continuous increase in the price of petroldiesel during the COVlD-19
crisis is like rubbing salt on the wounds People sufferings have reached
threshold levels I urge the Union Government to act with compassion and
common sense to reduce the escalating petroldiesel prices immediately It is
high time for the Government to reduce the petrol and diesel prices Otherwise
people will suffer from an unprecedented agony and pain
Indiarsquos COVlD-19 scenario is going from ldquobad to worserdquo stage to ldquoworse
to the worstrdquo stage and our hon Prime Minister is busy in feeding peacock
writing poems and continue his rhetoric speeches like his usual monthly Mann
Ki Baat It took 110 days for COVID-19 cases in India to reach one lakh while
just 59 days more to go past 10 lakhs Indiarsquos COVID-19 cases rose from 10
lakh to 20 lakhs in 21 days and 20 lakhs to 30 lakhs in just 16 days Indiarsquos
COVID-19 tally had crossed the 20-lakh mark on 7th August and went past 30
lakhs on 23rd August From 30 to 50 lakhs an addition of 20 lakh cases took just
three weeks At this current rate we can presume that by the end of September
Indiarsquos COVID-19 tally would easily cross 60 lakhs With the death toll increasing
steadily there is no way we could expect normalcy by October or November
There could be possibility to impose the lockdown once again till a vaccine to
curb COVlD-19 is discovered and distributed for public use Let us see the
further lsquoAct of Godrsquo is benevolent and merciful
COVID-19 has not spared anyone Even in the high-profile Ministers and
Members of Parliament are being affected Take the case of our Union Home
Minister He is the second most protected person in the country Only the
designated and approved individuals are allowed to meet him or come into any
kind of physical proximity with him Therefore the hon Home Minister getting
infected by COVID-19 and that too when the country needs him 247 he was
indisposed for several days It needs to be probed to ascertain if there is any
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 382
sabbatical move to curb the functioning of the all-powerful Minister l urge the
Government to initiate a fact-finding inquiry in this regard
On one side COVlD-19 has become the biggest health hazard and on the
other side the countryrsquos finance is shrinking like never before When the finances
drying up fast with considerable decline in the revenue the biggest problem for the
Government will be to fund its own projects in the coming months
Sir India is not an under developed country But it has been ruined by
underdeveloped minds This Government has lost its focus and attention and drift
away from economic priorities But it seems to be happy to focus more on divisive
religious ideologies and priorities This Government is not a game changer but only
a name changing Government It is either a slogging Government or just a
sloganeering Government This Government needs mentoring on all aspects of
politics economy and public welfare Electoral success will not guarantee a success
in governance too The real problem of the present Government is that if the pressing
issues are not addressed properly we might see a catastrophe in near future What
we need at the moment is a collective lsquoSave Indiarsquo Movement not a lsquoSlave Indiarsquo
Movement
I am really sorry to say that India has not only lost a golden opportunity to avert
the COVlD-19 but it has failed beyond the recovery in all other fronts It will be an
uphill task for the Government and the people of our country to come out of the
COVlD-19 crisis and its ill effects As far as Tamil Nadu is concerned we have great
people but miserable rulers at the moment Whatever happened we cannot stop now
The most pathetic thing is that people at the helm of affairs at the Government in
Tamil Nadu have indulged in corruption and siphoning of the amount designated for
COVID-19 crisis People are the ultimate sufferers due the inefficient Governments
at Centre and at State which has damaged the social fabric of the country including
Tamil Nadu This is the harsh and bitter truth The difficulties of the people may
increase manyfold once the lockdown is lifted but at the moment there is no way the
Government can lift the lockdown as the COVlD-19 cases in the country are
increasing in lakhs each day and the death toll is reaching one lakh
If this is the situation at the ground level today I cannot imagine how bad it
would turn out after two months when the cold weather and rains engulf the most of
the country COVID-19 crisis has left us with no other choice not because it is serious
but because of the incapable insensitive Governments at both Centre and State

SHRI B B PATIL (ZAHIRABAD) Sir Indias corona virus tally has raced past
the 54-lakh mark as more than 93337 COVID-19 cases were registered in the
last 24 hours according to the latest government figures
The data also underlines that the death toll in the nation has crossed the
86752 figure With a vaccine fit for public circulation still at least six to ten
months away the pandemic continues to ravage the country as
cases of cross-infection rise in the nation
While global health experts and scientists have been warning about the
onset of community transmission in India the Government still maintains that
there is no community spread in the country currently
Community transmission occurs when the source of the
contagion is not known ie when you cannot identify the clear source of
infection in a new community and the virus can infect anyone with no history of
contact with affected people and areas
In this scenario it becomes impossible to trace the original source of
infection back to a carrier
At this stage of the transmission where a person with no travel history or
any contact with infected people can also catch the infection
The national capital which was seemingly on a lsquopath of recoveryrsquo after
hitting the supposed peak in the month of July again started witnessing a sharp
rise in the corona virus cases from the last week of August till now
India has become the second worst affected nation by the COVID-19
pandemic We might soon overtake the USA in the total number of infections
next month
So far COVID-19 infections were heavily concentrated in large cities
located in Indias more prosperous States Delhi Mumbai Chennai among
others
The preparedness of the health system is much higher there than
elsewhere But recorded cases are now rising fast in Indias poorer States
where health services are very fragile
As the COVID-19 crisis absorbs their meager resources many public
health centers have stopped providing routine services
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 384
Even child immunization has been discontinued for months in many
States Some States paint a grim picture of missing doctors unattended
patients broken equipment and stray dogs Where are people with routine
health problems supposed to go
Not to forget the issues faced by disabled persons be it Financial
difficulties lack of access to essential services and little to no
assistance from the government were and still is some of the difficulties that
persons with disabilities have been facing during the COVID-19 and lockdown
In India there is one doctor for every 1457 people as per the
countrys current population estimate of 135 billion which is
lower than the World Health Organisation norm of 11000 as per
the Government
The other reason for a possible mortality spike is that Indias
prolonged national lockdown (from late March until unlock phases
began in June) has destroyed millions of peoples livelihoods
Local lockdowns continue in many States and are likely to persist off and
on for months Unlike affluent countries India has very little to show by way of
a social security system except for food subsidies and some relief work under
the National Rural Employment Guarantee Act
The employment crisis has already hit poor households really hard
Extreme food insecurity during and after the lockdown
Just to cite one 78 percent of the 25000 respondents in the nationwide
CSDS (Centre for the Study of Developing Societies) survey said that they had
found it quite difficult or ldquovery difficult to feed their families during the
lockdown
Acute food insecurity is very likely to translate into higher mortality
For children it also means lasting damage from malnutrition
A recent survey of some 20000 returning migrant workers found that 60
per cent were unable to ensure two square meals for all members of the family
With the local economy in the doldrums except for farming casual
workers are heading for a prolonged period of underemployment and hunger
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 385
With tax revenue a fraction of normal levels State Governments are finding
it difficult to provide more than symbolic relief The Central Government is doing little
to help them
Without much help from the Centre our Telangana Government still has been
taking several measures to tackle COVID-19 cases in the State and provide relief to
the people of the State
The Central Government did launch some limited relief measures during the
national lockdown such as free food-grain rations of five kilograms per person per
month for two thirds of Indias population
But now it seems to have lost interest and left it to the State Governments to
handle the crisis Doctors and nurses critical of the Governments crisis response
have been muzzled or harassed as have many journalists been
Muddled statistics are routinely invoked to reassure the public that all is well
In its hurry to turn India into a viswaguru (world leader) the Modi
Government seems to have little patience for a humanitarian crisis Yet denying a
crisis is the surest way to make it worse There seems no one way of ending the
pandemic in sight We need to bring the focus on controlling the spread of the
disease It can only be achieved through a degree of herd immunity following the
social distancing norms and a safe and effective vaccine
The combination of all three measures will only be helpful in slowing down
the spread of the disease However delivering a vaccine is easier said than done
From timely regulatory approvals to devising protocols for inoculation in a country
like India with over 138 billion population there can be quite a few challenges
authorities will have to tackle
Several countries have already drawn up plans to ensure priority access to
any approved COVID vaccine for the essential workers like defence men healthcare
workers and teaching staff Many also feel that the elderly need to be inoculated
first Indian authorities too need to figure out the priority groups which would need
coverage first
Smoothening out delivery details like this would get rid of confusion and
provide more security to those who could be at a higher risk than others Phased
out vaccination drive instead of or random dosage would also work out for the best
in a country with a sizeable population like India
Steps taken by Telangana Government amid COVID-19
Movement Restrictions
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 386

Corporation were given Rs7500 and the sanitation personnel of other local bodies
were provided Rs5000 as incentives for March and April

DR KALANIDHI VEERASWAMY (CHENNAI NORTH) I thank you for allowing
this discussion which is very pertinent and appropriate at this time to discuss the
effects of COVID-19 and the Governmentrsquos handling of the situation
I would like to go through the unfolding events in a chronological manner
to remind the House of the events which unfolded The first news of COVID-19
as a global threat started in November 2019 from the news about a deadly
disease killing several people in Wuhan China The Chinese Government
announced lockdown in several regions progressively from 23rd January 2020
Other countries announced lockdown from as early as 12th March 2020
and our hon Prime Minister announced lockdown on 23rd March 2020 which
lasted for almost ten weeks The sudden announcement of the lockdown threw
the country in utter turmoil which created the following difficulties starvation
unemployment no access to medical supplies or help and migrant labour issues
apart from complaints of discrimination and police excesses
Sir I would like to point out that a father and a son duo (Bennix and
Jayaraj) were tortured to death by the Tamil Nadu Police and the opposition
parties and public had to stage huge protests to bring the perpetrators to justice
This shows the extent of police excesses which prevailed in Tamil Nadu
Sir the medical facilities in the initial days of the lockdown were so
unorganised that people were running from pillar to post to get admitted in the
hospitals despite Tamil Nadu having one of the most robust healthcare
infrastructures Thanks to leaders like Perarignar Anna Kalaignar Karunanidhi
and M G Ramachandran
The performance of the Governments both Central and the State were
closely monitored by our Party leader Thiru M K Stalin and constructive
suggestions were provided which were ignored The Chief Minister of Tamil
Nadu gave wrong information like the disease will come under control within a
few days which led to carelessness by the people which further fomented the
spread of infection In addition the deaths of several hundred people were
overlooked with the dead bodies being handed over to family which further
spread the disease among thousands

Our leader Thiru M K Stalin with his call for ldquoOndrinaivaom Vaardquo which
means lsquoletrsquos unitersquo initiated the programme to feed almost one crore people and
supply medical supplies for the needy I under the able guidance of my leader
was able to feed several thousand families
Sir the efforts of the medical community has to be acknowledged and I
would like to pay homage to hundreds if not more of medical personnel who
lost their lives fighting this dreadful disease It is said that the Government is
unaware of the people who have laid their lives fighting this dreadful disease I
would like to urge the Government to list out the names and honour them their
efforts should not be forgotten as they are martyrs of this country
The Governmentrsquos support for the people has much to be desired The
so-called financial package was a joke with the people of this country The poor
entrepreneurs and MSMEs were all left in the lurch to fend for themselves which
led to starvation deaths migrant labourersrsquo deaths and closure of several
thousand MSMEs
Sir the National Disaster Management Authority headed by the hon
Prime Minister should look into the Report of the Task Force to Review DM Act
2013 which said that the present structure of various authorities under the DM
Act are not conducive for carrying out the tasks it has been mandated to perform
Perhaps if the PM had followed the report the disaster could have been better
managed I hope at least now with lessons learnt from our shortfalls the
Government would strengthen the National Disaster Management Authority as
the days ahead look gloomy with possibility of recurrence of these kinds of
biological attacks manmade or godsent and also with the precarious situation
with our neighbouring countries

SHRIMATI SUPRIYA SADANAND SULE (BARAMATI) According to the World
Bank Policy Note on Gender Dimensions of COVID-19 Pandemic such
pandemics are likely to affect women disproportionately more than men
If we talk about gender implications for health disease exposure in short
term is more for women because of following factors there is a larger share of
women in the health sector and as home and family caregivers which makes
them more exposed to contagion occupational sex-segregation also results in
different levels of exposure - women are more present in client-facing roles in
retail travel leisure and hospitality girls face constraints to access healthcare
services - as per the report by the WHO in India boys are more likely (and
sooner) taken to a qualified health professional for treatment than girls
The recommendation is that providing protective equipment and materials
and COVID-19 testing to higher-risk populations will be key to prevent their
contagion
As far as disruptions in reproductive health care services for women is
concerned the shift in resources towards addressing the public health
emergency can entail disruptions to key health services for women such as
reproductive health services There is for instance evidence of increase in
maternal mortality due to lack of critical resources in similar crises Pregnant
women can be particularly vulnerable in this context
The recommendation is that the pregnant women and maternity wards
require particular attention during the containment phase
Now I am coming to gender implications for education Given the fall in
incomes of households during a pandemic educational investment decisions
are likely to be altered Intra-household allocation of resources for schooling
might be redirected to boys over girls
The recommendation is that targeted measures needed for a section of
girls with no access to lCTs (Internet and Communication Technologies)
The disruption of services with school closures can lead to an increase in
the burden of care-related tasks - likely impacting girls more than boys This will
affect their ability to stay engaged in education in the longer term
------------------------
Laid on the Table

Possibility of an increase in child labour and dropouts - during the
pandemic the pressure to contribute to the family income may also increase
with the tightening economic conditions leading to permanent school dropout
The recommendation is that financial incentive programs can help
encourage families to send children back to school when the confinement phase
is over
There are gender implications for employment and economic conditions
Women will likely experience a significant burden on their time given their
multiple care responsibilities as school closures and confinement measures are
adopted possibly leading to reductions in their working time and permanent exit
from the labour market The over-representation of women among the inactive
population and in vulnerable forms of work (such as informal employment or
domestic work) heightens their vulnerability to poverty in times of crisis
The recommendations are the effectiveness of social protection
responses to the crisis can be improved if these gender dimensions are
considered Social messaging as part of the emergency response can
contribute to a more balanced distribution of household responsibilities and
resources between men and women Cash transfer programs to the most
vulnerable groups including women only households (for example single
mothers with children widows or female farmers) will be necessary both as part
of the emergency response and in the longer term Specific programs to support
womens return to economic activity will also play a central role For example-
public works access to training and credit direct provision of productive inputs
to female farmers
Gender implications within household ndash as regards domestic violence an
increase in gender-based violence (and its severity and frequency) due to
confinement can be observed across countries The stretched capacity of
response services might reduce the protection and support available
contributing to a heightened perception of impunity among perpetrators
The recommendation is that protection and support services need to be
in place and increases in the capacity may be required Innovative solutions to
provide reporting mechanisms for women victims and to accommodate them
and their children will be necessary Social awareness will be key as well as
engaging informal support networks and health workers

There are some important concerns in the way the Centre handled the
pandemic The overall Indias response to the pandemic has been reactionary
instead of being preventive and precautionary The Centre failed to ensure sufficient
availability of PPEs to frontline healthcare professionals NGOs and State
Governments responded better to the needs of citizens than the Centre For
example as part of its efforts to ease distress caused by COVID-19 the Pratibha
Foundation in association with the Yashaswini Samajik Abhiyaan has distributed
protective masks hand gloves hand sanitizers and PPE (Personal Protective
Equipment) kits to healthcare personnel at the forefront including police officers
Foundation also aided the needy households who are strapped of their daily wage
income by providing them with basic necessities food ration and served prepared
food daily to people stranded at the Daund railway station Pune
Until mid-July 2020 there were only two laboratories in India to test and certify
quality of Body-Coveralls for COVID-19 In an Unstarred Question on PPE suits
(QNo935 on 18092020) the Centre acknowledged that as of April 2020 there
were only two laboratories in the country which have the facilities as well as
necessary approvals for conducting tests on Body Coveralls (PPE) required for
COVID-19 These are South India Textiles Research Association (SITRA)
Coimbatore and Defence Research amp Development Establishment (DRDE) Gwalior
The Tests and Certifications of Body Coveralls (PPE) conducted at these two
laboratories in India are the only officially recognized ones
It was not until 16th July 2020 that 9 other testing facilities were announced
Such lack of sufficient facilities to test PPEs could have contributed to the delay in
PPE availability to healthcare workers The High-Level Group on Health Sector
constituted by the Fifteenth Finance Commission in May 2018 headed by Dr
Randeep Guleria Director AIIMS recommended shifting health from the State to the
Concurrent List During the times of a pandemic like COVID-19 effective
coordination between Centre and the States inter-state coordination is important to
respond effectively to the pandemic To enable this and to ensure a more active
responsible role for itself the Centre can consider shifting health subject from the
State List to the Concurrent List in the Seventh Schedule of the Constitution
The Fifteenth Finance Commission High-Level Group on Health Sector and
World Bank met on 21st May 2020 To improve the health response mechanisms in
India the World Bank recommended focus on quality of care centrally sponsored
schemes increasing per capita health spending among others Given that COVID-
19 primarily affects the respiratory system it stressed that infectious diseases like
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 396
tuberculosis need attention What suggestions and comments made during this
meeting has the Centre included in its COVID-19 response plan
India COVID-19 Emergency Response and Health Systems Preparedness
Package (ERampHSP) was approved by Cabinet on 22nd April 2020 for Rs 15000
Crores How much of this Fund is actually released or spent on COVID-19 in past
five months since April 20207 How much of this Rs15000 crore is released to the
States and particularly to my State of Maharashtra As per the data Rs 7500 crore
has been allocated for emergency COVID-19 response Rs 4150 crore has been
allocated for strengthening the national and State health system to support prevent
and preparedness Rs 1400 crore has been allocated for strengthening pandemic
research and multi-sector national institutions and platforms for one health Rs 1050
crore has been allocated for community engagement and risk communication and
Rs 900 crore has been allocated for implementation management capacity
building monitoring and evaluation
The Central Government has announced Rs 20 lakh crore package to combat
the impact of COVID-19 in the country How much of this Rs20 lakh crore was
actually infused into the economy since March 20207 How much of this Rs20 lakh
crore was given to my State of Maharashtra
The Centre was insensitive to the needs of an average citizen After the
lockdown was imposed there was a total absence of any supporting action to ramp
up testing expand the medical sector to help the millions of stranded poor workers
and to assist supply chain break In an Unstarred Question on Migrant Workers
(QNo174 on 14092020) the Centre answered that since it maintained no data on
migrant workers deaths during pandemic no compensation will be paid to the
victimrsquos family
There are multiple confusing rules and regulations issued by Central
Government during lockdown The Economist Magazine (June 13) estimated that
India issued well over 4000 different rules during the first two months of the
lockdown many of those rules being corrections of many of those rules A large
number of bureaucratic orders spelling rules and guidelines on a daily basis have
also created chaos among many stakeholders including businesses and the general
public According to PRS Legislative Research there have been 4130 executive
orders from states and the Centre

SHRI SAPTAGIRI SANKAR ULAKA (KORAPUT) Hon Chairman Sir thank
you for the providing opportunity to speak on the COVID-19 pandemic in the
country As the COVID-19 pandemic situation is going out of control day by day
the cases are increasing rapidly in tribal-dominated undivided Koraput district
Though Covid hospitals have been set up in every district most of these
hospitals are not equipped to treat serious or co-morbid patients We have 10
ICU with ventilators in Jeypore and JK Pur Covid hospitals but these ventilators
are mostly non-functional We donrsquot have Specialists oxygen supply
anesthesiologists etc to make these ventilators and subsequently hospitals
functional After following with the State Government multiple times finally
SLNMCampH has been declared as Covid hospital I would request the Central
Government to set up at least 50 ICU BED Covid hospital in Koraput and
specialists deployed from outside to make these beds functional I would also
request that Covid hospitals be provided with sufficient advanced treatment to
the Covid patients and constitute a team of doctors including Professors from
Medical Colleges to treat the patients
Another key issue is referrals Patients have to travel 400-500 km to
Bhubaneswar by road which is very risky for serious patients Hence I would
urge the Government to establish Air Ambulance leveraging the airstrip at
Jeypore so that serious patients can be transferred to Bhubaneswar without
risking their lives
There was a draconian notification by Odisha State Government which
discouraged patients from outside the State capital being referred to
Bhubaneswar Capacity has been built in Bhubaneswar Cuttack to cater to
treatments of patients from across the State This notification prevents patients
specially from tribal-dominated undivided Koraput district to avail treatment from
specialised hospitals in Bhubaneswar Cuttack There should be clear cut
directions from the Central Government to immediately stay such inhumane
notifications

COVID-19 outbreak and lockdown have impacted tribals and forest
dwellers greatly Now the virus has spread to rural areas especially Scheduled
Areas inhabited by tribals Lack of information and awareness among the tribals
and forest dwellers on the pandemic and required protective measures is a
major issue in tribal areas Tribal settlements are remotely located making it
particularly difficult for information to reach these areas The reverse migration
from cities and urban areas also raises concerns about the spreading of virus in
tribal areas
Poor access of tribal and forest dwellers to PDS is reported from across
the States Provisions under the PDS are not adequately provided or are
provided only to cardholders Ensuring good and nutritious security during the
lockdown in tribalOTFD areas needs to be the highest priority At this time PDS
should be provided to all needy families and migrant workers including those
who donrsquot have any identity cards on humanitarian grounds Insistence on
Aadhar card must be suspended during this period Provision of ration
vegetables cooking oil and other essentials should be made available at the
doorstep
The lockdown has affected collection use and sale of minor forest
produces (MFP) or Non-timber Forest Produce (NTFP) by tribals and forest
dwellers An estimated 100 million forest dwellers depend on MFP for food
shelter medicines and cash income The NFP collection season from April to
June provides major income support to tribals and unfortunately it coincided
exactly with the lockdown The MSP a major economic safety net has failed to
deliver due to lack of implementation in most of the States and slashing of
minimum support prices of many NTFPs by the Central Government
The Ministry of Tribal Affairs (MoTA) has written a letter to States
announcing revisions of MSP for 49 MFPs However what is most critical is the
institutional support that does not exist for collection and procurement of MFPs
with immediate payment Proposal for providing support through Van Dhan
Vikas Kendras (VDVKs) and most of VDVKs are non-functional The Particularly
Vulnerable Tribal Groups (PVTGs) are even more vulnerable a special relief
package for PVTGs comprising adequate grains pulses vegetables oil cash
grant soap and medicines should be provided The migration and seasons
access of pastoralists have been restricted due to the lockdown Also pastoral
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 399
communities have been affected as the milk economy faces severe crisis as
procurement and sale has been affected during the lockdown Diversion of forest
land without the consent of Gram Sabha in violation of the FRA continues even
during the lockdown Even as COVID-19 spreads and livelihoods are affected
due to lockdown there are reports of compensatory afforestation (CA)
plantations being carried out on forest land used by tribals and other traditional
forest dwellers including by fencing o such areas accessed for community rights
I would suggest to set up COVID Response Cell in MoTA ensuring appropriate
guidelines and instructions raising awareness and ensuring healthcare
ensuring food security strengthening NTFP-based livelihoods ensuing support
to PVTGs and pastoral communities support communities living in protected
areas prevent forest diversion and ensuring effective implementation of forest
rights
Thank you Sir

SHRIMATI APARUPA PODDAR (ARAMBAGH) COVID-19 a biomedical
disease has serious physical and tremendous mental health implications as it
is a rapidly spreading pandemic Asian countries like India are currently facing
issue of exponential growth in spread of transmission of COVID-19 in slum areas
of urban cities like Dharavi in Mumbai and the under privileged localities of metro
cities like Delhi
During lockdown period in India migrant workers had faced problems
nation-wide due to sudden ban on travel loss of income food shortage and
uncertainty about future More than 300 migrant workers died due to lockdown
with reasons varying from starvation suicide road and rail accidents lack of
medical care etc Due to COVID-19 pandemic migrant workers faced multiple
hardships They should be provided special assistance by the Central
Government as their families are facing problems to live their lives
According to the psycho-social issues among migrant workers they are
suffering from high degree of anxieties and fears There is no medical help from
the Central Government side for the poor People are jobless More effective
steps should be taken by the Government to prevent spread of COVID-19 Hand
sanitizers and masks should also be provided to people in public places and
healthcare should be given free of cost to the common public
This is the time to fight COVID-19 together Further vaccine for COVID-
19 should be given free of cost to the common man by the Central Government
In this COVID-19 times I would urge the Central Government to give special
financial package to Bengal and clear the pending amount which West Bengal
did not get from the Central Government Our Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee
is facing acute fund crisis Still she is fighting for the people of West Bengal in
this COVID-19 situation
Lastly I thank all the doctors nurses and health workers who are really
doing a good job Thank you

SHRI ANNASAHEB SHANKAR JOLLE (CHIKKODI) Honrsquoble Speaker sir
thank you for allowing me to participate in the discussion under Rule 193
regarding COVID-19 pandemic in the country As we all are aware that the
global spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19) followed by lockdowns has
affected global economies including India Government is taking several steps
to ensure that we are well prepared to face the challenges and threats posed by
COVID-19
India recorded the first case of the disease on January 30 2020 Since
then the cases have increased steadily As on today total 5400620 persons
are infected The number of deaths is 86752 Of the total infected persons in
the country 4303044 patients were recovered Globally over 306 million have
been infected of which nearly 21 million have recovered so far At least
955841 people have lost their lives to the virus so far in the world
In order to protect the people and save the life of COVID-19 affected
people both Government hospitals and private healthcare centres in the
country particularly in Karnataka have done great services The doctors nurses
and all the staff including assistants worked on war footing day in and day out
They put their lives at stake to rescue the affected people from the Coronavirus
they are the real warriors It is because of their sacrifice and sincere efforts India
has overtaken the US to become No1 in terms of Coronavirus recoveries As
per the data the recovery rate is 19 per cent of the total global recoveries It is
a significant achievement of the country I congratulate all the Corona warriors
for their great service for the nation The Union Government had also announced
insurance for Corona Warriors providing treatment free of cost if these warriors
get infected by COVlD-19 and in case of death Rs 30 lakh compensation is
given to the kin
The Union government has taken immediate step to issue a clarification
to use of CSR funds to tackle the COVID-19 pandemic The companies were
allowed to take up projects related to promotion of health care including

DR RAJDEEP ROY (SILCHAR) Sir Assam is one of the eight North-East
States of India and often called the Gateway to the North-Eastern Region With
a population of 312 million (as per 2011 Census) spread over 33 administrative
districts Assam has vast geographical area of 78438 square kilometres and
shares international borders with Bhutan and Bangladesh In 2011
the literacy rate of Assam was 7318 per cent (males - 7881 per cent females
- 6727 per cent) The River Brahmaputra (identity for the State) traverses
through various districts of state and finally joins Bay of Bengal The core public
health service in Assam is delivered through an institutional structure that
includes seven functional Medical Colleges twenty-five District Hospitals
fourteen Sub-Divisional Hospitals 177 Community Health Centres 946 Primary
Health Centres 54 Urban Primary Health Centres 4643 Sub-Health Centres
(RHS 2018-19)
The Government of Assam has been successfully managing the COVID-
19 pandemic by adopting multi-pronged comprehensive health systems
strengthening strategies with 3-Ts ndash Testing Tracing and Treatment fully in
tune with the Government of India directives for COVID-19 management
complemented by different state specific safety net initiatives These include
need-based policies professionalism of medical and para-medical fraternity
readiness of health facilities by bridging gaps ensuring availability of logistics
strong support from community and frontline workers engagement of private
hospitals for managing non-COVID cases technical assistance from different
Development Partners support of other Allied State Departments etc
The strong political and administrative commitment shown by Sh
Sarbananda Sonowal hon Chief Minister Dr Himanta Biswa Sarma hon
Minister Health and Family Welfare Government of Assam and Sh Piyush
Hazarika Minister of State Health and Family Welfare a strong team of Senior
Bureaucrats and Health Department Officials Allied Department Staff and
Frontline Warriors have ensured that all strategies and plans as framed are
translated into efficiently implemented interventions Technical support from
different Development Partners such as World Health Organization (Regional
Office) UNICEF Jhpiego Piramal Swasthya and SAATHI have been found very
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 407
useful in designing need-based planning to fight back COVID-19 pandemic
unitedly In addition plan execution partners like HLLPPT APOLLO GVK-
EMRI C-NES Krsnaa Laboratories Spandan TBS etc have also extended
their wholesome support All these comprehensive plans set the ground for
rigorous Testing Tracing Isolating and Treating
The State was able to limit the spread of the pandemic initially with only
100 cases till 17th May 2020 since the reporting of first COVID positive case on
31032020 Thereafter cases started increasing with the relaxation of lockdown
and the return of many Assamrsquos residents back to Assam majority of them came
from other COVID-19 hotspot States To tackle the situation Assam adopted
multi-pronged approaches with a policy which can be termed as ldquoAssam Caresrdquo
under which the principle of very strict quarantine measure ldquoStrict quarantine
with a humane heartrdquo has been followed Different approaches adopted have
been proved successful in managing COVID-19 pandemic
As on 19092020 Assam had 155453 confirmed cases and 125540
recovered cases of COVID with a recovery rate of 8075 per cent (national 763
per cent) and case fatality rate of 028 per cent (national 184 per cent) (Table
1) Assamrsquos weekly average of COVID testing in a day (period from 21-08-2020
to 27-08-2020 as in table 2) is 30322 and the weekly average of confirmed
cases in a day is 1822 with an average positivity rate just about six per cent
The doubling time for the state is 218 days
It is heartening to mention that as on 26th August the tests per million
population (TPM) in Assam are 60404 which is more than double of the national
TPM of 26685 and one of the best in the country with the mortality rate of 028
per cent as one of the lowest in the country
Assam adopted an approach of 3Ts - Testing Tracing and Treatment for
management of COVID-19 pandemic in the State This is in line with the national
testing strategy aggressively tracking comprehensively and treating efficiently
However the Statersquos approach is much more comprehensive and inclusive in
nature with a view to bend the curve of COVID The broad specific actions which
are taken are stated below
1 Ensuring Sufficient availability of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) The
State ensured sufficient availability of PPEs (triple-layer mask N-95 and
PPE) to ensure that all COVID warriors feel confident to work in COVID
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 408
management The initial stock procurement made in March-April 2020
helped us to tide over the period of absolute scarcity without significant
difficulties
2 Gap filling of health facilities Gaps in health facilities mainly Medical
Colleges and District Hospitals were assessed on a war footing scale gaps
were bridged and facilities were made ready to manage COVID patients
The state has currently 25750 isolation beds and 58949 quarantine beds
3 Safety and security of COVID warriors The Health Department of Assam
ensures that after every seven days of duty each health care provider is
quarantined for seven days at quarantine centers and the cost is being borne
by the state Each health care staff is tested before and after quarantine The
success of this is reflected in the low mortality of heath care workers from
COVID in the state Though approximately 1900 plus health care workers
have been infected so far only six deaths have been reported among the
health workers in Assam of which only three were associated with COVID-19
duties
4 Training of staff associated in clinical management of COVID State on
priority trained approximately 3000 number of doctors 11000 para-medical
staff and supporting staff etc using virtual mode on clinical management of
COVID and frontline health worker protection The State also trained 700 final
year MBBS students and 2000 final year nursing students as back up COVID
healthcare providers Still continuous training is undertaken to keep them up
to date in latest treatment protocols as COVID treatment protocols are
evolving
5 Massive IEC campaign for mass awareness of Public on COVID-19 For
mass awareness generation ASHAs are mobilized for door-to-door
awareness campaign to inform community on DOrsquos and DONrsquoTs of COVID-
19 IEC Materials were distributed on signs and symptoms preventive
measures (use of mask hand washing and social distancing) using different
media platforms Hon Health Minister Assam shares regular press briefings
to inform people on COVID-19
6 Active support from frontline workers in generating awareness on COVID
Support of all frontline workers (ASHA ANM MPW) has been found highly
beneficial in reaching the last household with COVID-19 awareness
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 409
messages To ramp up testing state started ldquoAssam Community Surveillance
Program (ACSP)rdquo from 07th May 2020 in around 28000 villageswards of the
State to look for SARI (Severe Acute Respiratory Infections) ILI (Influenza
like Illness) fever dengue malaria diarrhea cases and to carry out
appropriate testing (as per the signs and symptoms) Based on the
encouraging feedback of 1st round of ACSP state is carrying out 2nd round of
ACSP with the name Assam Targeted Surveillance Plan (ATSP) -
NISCHAYATA (ACSP-Phase II) Under NISCHAYATA aggressive testing is
carried out at potential hotspots like market places interstate truck terminals
and parking lots random testing of vulnerable people of Health department
Police Transportation workers and Hotels staff etc This aggressive testing
approach ldquoCHASE THE VIRUSrdquo helped in identifying many COVID patients
and starting their timely treatment
7 Psychological support to patients Understanding the psychological impacts
of COVID-19 on the individual and the society an active intervention named
ldquoMononrdquo meaning lsquodeliberate thinkingrsquo was initiated involving Psychiatry
department Gauhati Medical College and LGB Regional Institute of Mental
Health Tezpur and a set of trained and committed volunteers to provide free
of cost psychiatric counselling and treatment to the COVID affected persons
as well as those who were quarantined As on date more than 32000
patients have been contacted over phone to provide psychiatric assistance
In addition free of cost online yoga training for patients in hospitals and Covid
Care Centres is also given
8 Universal screening and testing Assam took a policy decision to quarantine
everyone entering state (by air train and road) followed by testing and based
on the test report home quarantine is given to them whose test report comes
negative and positive cases are taken to hospital for treatment This
approach of ldquoChase the Virusrdquo was very useful in identifying many cases Till
May 2020 Assam could test only 12 Lac but with the ramping up of testing
facilities and testing state could test 207 Lac till 26th August 2020 From one
laboratory in February 2020 now state has 17 ICMR approved laboratories
Tests per million for Assam are 60404 and the positivity rate is 738 per cent
as on 19092020 Of the tests being done about 60 per cent are through
RT-PCR while about 40 per cent are using the point of care rapid antigen
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 410
tests Given the low sensitivity of antigen tests all symptomatic cases found
negative in the antigen test are re-tested using RT-PCR and necessary
actions are taken based on the test report To give the facility of getting tested
to people at Guwahati City 105 COVID Screening and Counselling Centres
(CCC) have been set up spread over in all the 31 wards of Guwahati Similar
facilities have been arranged in all other districts as well to facilitate public
testing free of cost These facilities provide testing and also counselling to
COVID confirmed cases
9 Setting up of Additional COVID Care Centres (CCC) Assam started setting
up of additional COVID Care Centers (CCC) at different places in the state
because of the increasing COVID positive cases Under this existing
colleges and convention centers where available were converted to COVID
Care Centers to cater to increasing COVID positive cases In addition
temporary structure like German Hangers with facilities like individual cabins
and toilets were prepared in war footing to admit and keep mild cases who
could not practice isolation at home
10 Increasing Oxygen production storage and delivery capacity As continuous
supply of medical oxygen is one of the critical elements for treatment of
COVID-19 the State Government is actively undertaking necessary steps to
arrange for sufficient numbers of oxygen cylinders of various capacities to
transport medical oxygen Cryogenic tanks for keeping liquid oxygen are
being established in GMCH and other medical colleges Oxygen generation
plants and oxygen concentrators are also being installed as per need
Infrastructure to provide oxygen through medical gas pipelines in hitherto
unavailable areas within the hospitals is also being undertaken earnestly
11 Scientific and evidence-based management of COVID-19 patients As the
COVID situation evolved the treatment protocols also evolved in the last few
months against COVID From the initial consideration of azithromycin and
hydroxyl chloroquine treatment protocol of COVID has swiftly moved
towards low molecular weight heparin steroids Inj Remdesivir monoclonal
antibodies like Tocilizumab and Itoluzumab convalescent plasma etc and
the state has progressively and timely adopted all the modern treatment for
COVID-19 patient management Many COVID patients could be brought
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 411
back from ICU and ventilators because of timely actions taken by the expert
health providers
12 Convalescent Plasma Therapy Assam is one of the first states in India to
bring in state of art Convalescent Plasma Bank with necessary facilities at
five Medical Colleges State has started motivating eligible cured COVID
patients to donate plasma and to transfuse plasma to the needy at Medical
Colleges of Assam Till 19092020 almost 1000 people have received
plasma therapy
13 Participation of Private Health Facilities In early phase State took support
from private health facilities in Guwahati Dibrugarh and Cachar (districts with
Medical Colleges) to manage all non-COVID cases while making the medical
colleges functional as fullypartly dedicated COVID hospitals Further with
the evolution of COVID-19 private hospitals are regularly supervised and kept
in loop so as to ensure that standard treatment protocols are followed across
the state irrespective of the status of the hospitals In addition free testing
facilities are being extended to private hospitals also so that the citizens
visiting these hospitals are not charged for testing COVID-19
14 Field level COVID Warriors Health care providers including managerial and
support staff have been working selflessly towards surveillance screening
sample collection supply of logistics transportation of samples to the
laboratories and information sharing with the higher authorities Continuous
training and monitoring through district officials and Zonal Medical College
faculties has helped in maintaining the high standards set by the Government
in dealing with COVID-19 patients
15 Facilitation of Home Isolation State started a unique scheme of supplying
necessary medicines and pulse oximeters to COVID positive patients who
are asymptomatic or mildly infected and prefer to remain in home isolation
These patients are supported by telemedicine and video-consultations
through e-sanjeevani with a tag name- SAMPARK Over a period time it is
expected that most of the mild and asymptomatic cases will prefer to have
home isolation However absolute awareness about the danger signs and
proper knowledge about immediate steps to be taken from the patient side
are very critical Hence efforts are being made to create awareness among
public for early testing and treatment
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 412
16 COVID Sero Survey ICMR on request from the State is conducting the sero
survey to detect antibodies to COVID in the population to assess prevalence
of the SARS-CoV-2 virus in three districts of Assam and the survey report is
likely to be shared with State by early September 2020 Depending on the
feedback the State is also planning to conduct sero survey for Antibody
through ELISA-based tests in large scale as per the requirements for future
planning
As explained above the Government of Assam is undertaking a large
gamut of activities in order to keep the citizens safe and healthy Obviously the
Government of India policy is strictly followed with Statersquos own innovative plans
and implementation of the same All these activities definitely have huge cost
impact and the Statersquos own fund is not enough to meet all the expenses at the
same time Even with the Government of Indiarsquos assistance the expenditure
already made for COVID-19 management with the pending liabilities and future
needs for this financial year alone is a huge burden on the State Government

SHRI UNMESH BHAIYYASAHEB PATIL (JALGAON) Thank you Sir for giving
me an opportunity to take part in this discussion under Rule 193 on a matter of
immense importance which not only concerns our country but also the whole
world which has seen 31 million cases across the world
I would like to thank our Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji under
whose leadership India has led from the front in our fight against this pandemic
and Dr Harsh Vardhan ji who has been working day and night to manage the
situation in an effective manner
The world and several institutions including the WHO are now looking up
to India to lead the fight and the Indian model as an example to emulate Apart
from handling the health pandemic India has also deftly dealt with the economic
situation arising as a result notable among them are the measures taken for the
vulnerable sections of the society who are the worst hit and are expectedly
facing hardships
India would now be playing a more prominent role at the World Health
Organisation WHO with Union Health Minister Dr Harsh Vardhan set to take
charge as Chairman of the WHO Executive Board at its 147th session
Indiarsquos response to COVID-19 has been ldquopre-emptive pro-active and
graded The Government had already put in place a lsquocomprehensive response
systemrdquo at the borders of the country much before the World Health
Organisation declared the coronavirus as a public health emergency of
international concern on January 30 Such a response ensured that there was
no panic among the citizens and avoided inconvenience to the extent possible
The Indian Government has also evacuated its citizens and those of its
neighbours from high-risk countries including China Japan Iran and Italy The
Government started screening of incoming air passengers followed by
suspension of visas and a ban on international flights were done much ahead of
any other country Italy and Spain started screening travellers 25 days and 39
days respectively after the first reported cases
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 416
Equally noteworthy are the various public awareness campaigns Prime
Minister Shri Modi has shown leadership in mobilizing the Heads of Governments of
the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) and that of the G-20
to share reliable information best practices and support each other in fighting this
pandemic
I will conclude with some suggestions to further bolster our fight against
corona
My first suggestion is the scope of Ayushman Bharat Indiarsquos flagship
insuranceassurance scheme launched with the vision of universal healthcare and
leaving no one behind should be expanded to include the 40 per cent lsquomissing
middlersquo who are neither covered by private insurance nor by the Government so that
any COVID-19 related expenses are covered by the Government
My second suggestion is this Businesses have a responsibility towards their
employees Those employees who are not on any permanent contract often become
the first casualty of cost cutting measures and are the most vulnerable It will be
critical for businesses to ensure all such employees continue to get paid and that
companies can partner with the Government to ensure their health coverage
My third suggestion is this The Constitution of India distributes the legislative
powers between the Centre and the States under the Seventh Schedule Services
related to public health sanitation hospitals and dispensaries are categorised under
Entry 6 of List II and is the responsibility of the States The rationale to entrust the
responsibility of public health and sanitation to the States is because the health
requirements vary from one State to another
But when it comes to making effective response strategy for tackling
pandemics that affect the health of the population around the country it becomes
imperative for the Union to spearhead the nationwide planning in consort with the
State Governments
In fact given their inherent challenges it becomes implicit for the States to
look up to the Union Government for a direct intervention to mobilise their medical
resources and devise efficient strategies for routing the resources where it is most
needed
With these suggestions I conclude my speech

SHRI NABA KUMAR SARANIA (KOKRAJHAR) Hon Speaker Sir I am
thankful to you for allowing me to speak on the COVID-19 discussion under
Rule 193
In my State three Governments are functioning namely the Central
Government State Government and BTC When the lockdown was declared
the BTC Assembly elections were going on Later on 27th April 2020 the
Governor Rule was imposed in the BTC Till today Model Code of Conduct is
imposed there
Sir yesterday I came to know that Assam Government had written to the
Election Commission of Assam to postpone the BTC elections But I think it is
not the right solution The people of the BTC have suffered so much during the
lockdown and Model Code of Conduct The BTC election procedure up to
symbol distribution has been completed Only six to seven days are left for
competing the BTC Assembly Elections I think it is possible by maintaining all
the COVID-19 protocols before 27th October 2020
So I would request the Central Government to please advise the State
Government to strictly maintain the COVID-19 guidelines in the BTC area
because in their campaigning so many parties have organised mass gatherings
and even some responsible State Ministers have participated there by violating
the social distancing norms Some were even not wearing masks
So these norms should be followed strictly I will extend all the possible
support to the State Government and the Central Government in this regard
Thank you

SHRI JAGDAMBIKA PAL (DOMARIYAGANJ) Respected hon Speaker Sir I
rise to lay on the table of the House the facts on the discussion under rule 193
on COVID-19 Pandemic in the country
Sir the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare acknowledged the
emergence of a new coronavirus (COVID-19) that was spreading across China
The first Indian case of COVID 19 was reported on 30th January 2020 The
Ministry of Home Affairs announced a 21-day lockdown to contain the spread of
COVID-19 from March 25 2020 to April 14 2020 As the spread increased and
more information about the virus was uncovered the Central Government
announced several policy decisions to contain it
Further measures were also announced to support citizens and
businesses who were affected by such containment measures India started
point of entry screening of passengers at ports airports and land border
crossings Under Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Yojana to provide relief against
COVID-19 the Finance Minister announced a relief package of 17 lakh crore
rupees for the poor An Insurance cover of Rs50 lakh was provided to health
workers (such as doctors nurses paramedics and ASHA workers) who are
treating patients of COVID-19 About 80 crore poor people got five kilograms of
wheat or rice and one kilogram of preferred pulses were also provided for free
every month Women account holders under the Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan
Yojana got Rs500 per month and also free gas cylinders were distributed to the
needy people
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has constituted an Advisory Committee
to review the Ways and Means Advances (WMA) limits for States and UTS
WMA limits refer to temporary loans given by the RBI to State Governments
Until the Committee submits its final recommendations the WMA limit has been
increased by 30 from the existing limit for all States and UTs The revised
limits will be in force between April 1 and September 30 2020
Sir todays our Government has reached the level of more than 12 lakh
COVID tests per day This strongly demonstrates an exponential increase
COVID-19 testing infrastructure in the country
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 419
The countrys testing capacities have multiplied manifold From
conducting merely 10000 tests per day on 8th April the daily average has
crossed 12 lakhs today In addition for treatment of those affected by COVID
the Government is implementing Ayushman Bharat-Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya
Yojana under which 601 coaches have been converted into Covid Care Centres
by Indian Railways
Sir in all 4621 Shramik Special trains have been operated between 1st
May 2020 to 31st August 2020 carrying 6319 lakhs stranded passengers to
their home states From Zero manufactures to 1100 indigenous manufacturing
of PPE kits shows the Central Government achievement in tackling the problem
of COVIDndash19 An amount of Rs11092 crore has been provided under State
Disaster Risk Management Fund to all States to tackle COVID-19
Sir I would like to request that 90 oxygen cylinders may be used for
COVID patient and the rest 10 may be used for other chronic diseases The
steps taken by our Government to tackle the problem of COVID-19 pandemic is
very praiseworthy I am therefore fully satisfied and also appreciate the major
allocation of funds to the States as well as to the poor people to overcome the
problem of COVID Pandemic
(ends)
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 420
SHRI P P CHAUDHARY (PALI) Iniarsquos response to COVID-19 has been pre-
emptive pro-active and graded The country has already put in place a
comprehensive response system at its borders much before the WHO declared
it as a public health emergency of international concern which is January
302020
Many of my friends are criticizing the announcement of lockdown I would
like to call their bluff and remind them if the lockdown was not announced in a
sudden manner it would have created a havoc People distressed lining for
tickets price rise of essential commodities and travel plans the crowded
movement of masses would have spread COVID-19 from the urban to far flung
distant corners of the country
Under such extraordinary circumstances where we knew not what was
the propensity of the threat from disease which originated in China where even
the WHO was misled a good leadership leads with confidence works for the
betterment of situation and arrange for facilities needed PM Shri Modi was able
to announce the lockdown at such short notice because he had made
arrangements prior to announcement different from the Congress era when
announcements were done with distant dreams of materialization in future which
never happened
Coming to PM Garib Kalyan Yojana on March 26 when the Government
announced a relief package of Rs17 lakh crore under the Pradhan Mantri Garib
Kalyan Yojana for the poor the Opposition was doing politics and bickering on
social media tapping from the comforts of their air-conditioned homes and
offices
In pursuance of the pro-poor announcement made under the Pradhan
Mantri Garib Kalyan package as part of the economic response to COVID-19
the Government of India had launched the scheme for additional allocation of
foodgrains from the Central pool at the rate of five kilogram per person per month

SHRI TEJASVI SURYA (BANGALORE SOUTH) Hon Speaker at the outset
I wish to thank the hon Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji for effectively
handling the COVID-19 pandemic
By taking speedy and seemingly harsh measures prioritising the health of
the citizens of the country PM Modi Ji has ensured that India has one of the
lowest COVID-19 deaths per million population An early lockdown called by the
PM potentially saved upto 70000 lives and more than 29 lakh cases While
India stayed indoors and obeyed the Prime Ministerrsquos call he constituted the
PMCARES Fund for supplying ventilators and improving the health infrastructure
of the country After India entered the unlock stage Prime Minister Modi
unveiled a slew of reforms in the form of the Atmanirbar Bharat Scheme to
mitigate the economic hardship faced by MSMEs street vendors migrant
labourers and practically every other citizen Similarly the PM Garib Kalyan Ann
Yojana ensured that no citizen would go hungry despite the country experiencing
the worst global pandemic in a century
My State Karnataka under the leadership of hon Chief Minister Shri BS
Yedurappa has also managed to control the pandemic effectively True to its
tag of being the Tech Capital of the country my city Bengaluru utilized
technology and implemented unique solutions to assist citizens during the
lockdown and beyond
Soon after the lockdown was announced we set up a Bengaluru South
MP Coronavirus Task Force with the help of more than 4000 dedicated
volunteers to attend to citizensrsquo emergency requirements The Task Force
volunteers are available 247 on the number 99464 99464 We formed area-
wise WhatsApp groups to assist senior citizens pregnant women migrant
workers and other distressed people during the lockdown period They
extended all non-COVID medical support in the form of assistance in procuring
medicines and groceries delivering food packets to the needy and also feeding
stray dogs They also provided free and compassionate psychological
counselling The Task Force also tied up with cab aggregator Ola to provide
free taxi rides to hospitals for non-COVID medical emergencies
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 426
During the lockdown period the MP Coronavirus Task Force handled
5000 individual requests provided 2600 free Ola cab rides to hospitals served
450000 meals served to underprivileged sections and migrant workers and
handed out 35000 free ration kits for the migrants and needy
Bengaluru further proved its credentials of being the startup capital of the
country when we established the Home Line what is possibly Indiarsquos first
WhatsApp bot-enabled e-commerce platform
The Home Line was a phone number (080 61914960) accessible both by
call and WhatsApp set up for the home delivery of essentials from your nearest
grocer or medical store in Bengaluru We brought together 30 competing
startups from Bengaluru mapped every retailer in the city and unleashed about
10000 delivery executives to take essentials to the doorsteps of citizens Using
Cloud Calling system of Kaleyra call center employees of (24)7ai working for
the Home Line would note the order for groceries or medicines and generate a
ticket The ticket would be passed on to a delivery executive from Dunzo
Swiggy Rapido Shadowfax or House Joy The delivery executive would
proceed to purchase the items from the grocer or medical store located closest
to the caller and deliver the items
During the lockdown period the Home Line of Bengaluru received 17059
orders on WhatsApp and 2137 orders placed on phone It enabled the delivery
of 14049 orders and served 30000 people in Bengaluru
Bengaluru finally opened up during the Unlock phase and we noticed an
increase in the number of daily cars We once again came up with a technology
solution to handle the outbreak called COVID Raksha
COVID Raksha can be accessed by phone and WhatsApp by using the
same helpline number 080 6191 4960 Citizens can report COVID-19
symptoms enquire about test request for doctor assistance and expert advice
and seek guidance on turning positive and take initiative to reach out for urgent
care It also facilitates the shifting of patients in distress to hospitals across
Bengaluru
The Office of the MP partnered with Swasth Project Stepone Kaleyra
Fortis Hospitals (24)7ai ACT Grants Cartoon Mango SRL Diagnostics Hey
Doc Pharmeasy Portea Medical ITW Consulting and Spykke Technologies to
power the platform
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 427
Through COVID Raksha (as on 10th September) we have answered
10700 calls from citizens on the coronavirus infection and conducted 3465
sessions on WhatsApp We have completed 1698 triaging of symptoms on
Swasth and facilitated 582 hospital transfers The COVID Raksha so far has
handled 96 advanced emergency cases and provided life-saving care to citizens
in Bengaluru
With this hon Speaker I would like to thank citizens for enabling us to
serve them I also would like to thank the Prime Minister once again for showing
exemplary leadership during such times Together we will fight this pandemic

SHRI PC MOHAN (BANGALORE CENTRAL) Hon Speaker Sir thank you
for allowing me to participate in the discussion under Rule 193
regarding COVID-19 pandemic in the country
The latest data shows that 54 lakhs 620 cases confirmed cases and
around 86752 deaths and 4303044 patients have already been cured as
on today
Sir India is the second largest democracy in the world with the population
of more than 135 crore In such a big country to enforce a lockdown and prevent
people to stop their daily activities and business is not a matter of joke It is
known to all of us
Even then our Union Government under the leadership of Shri Narendra
Modi ji has taken very effective steps to impose the lockdown to protect people
As a Prime minister of the country he has taken a very bold step He did not
think twice about the ill effects of the economic situation caused by lockdown
He gave top priority to save the lives of people of the country He took the people
of the country into confidence by interacting with them frequently through the
National media and lsquoMann Ki Baatrsquo programmes I congratulate the hon Prime
Minister for his bold initiatives And I am thankful to the people of the country for
showing their respect and honor the words of the hon Prime Minister
ldquoIn a landmark global achievementrdquo India has overtaken the US to
become No1 in terms of coronavirus recoveries accounting for close to 19 per
cent of the total global recoveries It is because of the great sacrifice done by
the healthcare service providers
In order to protect the people and save the life of covid-19 affected people
both Government hospitals and private health care centers in the country
particularly in Karnataka have done great services The doctors nurses and all
the staff including assistances worked on war footing day in and day out They
put their lives at stake to rescue the affected people from the coronavirus They
are the real warriors I am thankful to all the corona warriors for their great
service for the nation
This is reflected in the Government Response Stringency Index measured by
Oxford University which says that India enforced one of the most stringent
lockdowns
------------------------
Laid on the Table

Our BJP Government in the Center and also in the state of Karnataka have taken
several measure to manage situation risen out of the COVID-19 pandemic on a war
footing ldquoDedicated hospitals for the treatment of the
infected fever clinics and Covid care centres in Bengaluru and in all other
district headquarters of the State were set up apart from quarantine
facilities to identify and isolate the infected personsrdquo
Atmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyana
On May 12 Government announced Atmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyana
Package a special economic and comprehensive package of Rs 20 lakh
crore - equivalent to 10 per cent of Indiarsquos GDP - to combat the impact of
the COVID-19 pandemic in India Later on the lockdown was considerably eased in the
months of July August and September Now there is a gradual improvement in growth of
Manufacturing core industries E-way bills Kharif sowing power
consumption railway freight cargo traffic and passenger vehicle sales etc
Ayushman Bharat program
The Government has launched Ayushman Bharat program and Pradhan Mantri Jan
Arogya Yojana for the people Under this the Government provides health coverage of
Rs 5 lakh per family per annum to more than 10 crore poor and vulnerable families for
secondary and tertiary care
hospitalization Our BJP Government is making all the efforts sincerely to
augment the health infrastructure to combat COVID-19 pandemic in the
country
Allocation of Funds
As far as the budget allocation is concerned in the interim budget of 2019- 20
around 22 per cent has been allocated to the Department of Health amp Family Welfare
During the year 2015-16 Government health expenditure is 118 per cent of GDP The
allocation is constantly increasing during the BJP
Government for the last six years The National Health Policy 2017
envisages increasing public health expenditure to 25 per cent of GDP by
2025 Our BJP Government is making all the efforts to achieve this target
With the constant efforts and encouragement of the union Government a major
achievement made by Tata CRISPR in finding an advanced test for Covid-19 The Tata
CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats) test achieves the
highest accuracy levels than the traditional RT-PCR tests It takes quicker turnaround time
and less expensive equipment and better ease of use
With these words I conclude my speech Thank you Sir

SHRI RAM MOHAN NAIDU KINJARAPU (SRIKAKULAM) Thank you hon
Speaker Sir for giving me the opportunity to speak on the discussion on COVID-
19 pandemic in the country
First of all I would like to pay my tribute and pass on my condolences to
the families of all the doctors nurses health workers police and to all those
who have worked on a frontline and have lost their lives due to COVID-19
pandemic I would like to thank the hon Minister of External Affairs Dr
Subrahmanyam Jaishankar Ji who has helped in bringing back people who
were stranded outside India and I would also like to thank all the State
Governments who have helped in bringing migrants of Andhra Pradesh back to
their homes I would also like to thank all the MPs who have worked
tremendously in their constituencies during the crisis Right now they are
fulfilling their constitutional duties in the Parliament While we are discussing
this the COVID-19 cases have passed the 54-lakh mark with as many as 92605
new cases reported today The country has lost around 87000 lives in the
pandemic
My State Andhra Pradesh has seen a total of 8218 new cases today and
the total confirmed cases in the State is 617776 The Statersquos tally is the second
highest after Maharashtra My constituency Srikakulam has seen total of
30000 cases and 280 deaths till now
Hon Speaker Sir this discussion on COVID-19 should have been taken
up during the Budget Session when we were aware that our country would have
to face this pandemic Having a discussion at that time would have helped us
formulate our response to tackle the crisis more effectively
I would also like to commend the efforts of the Government of India and
its bold if not timely decision to implement the most comprehensive lockdown
anywhere in the world Being one of the most populated countries in the world
we needed it at that time to calibrate our responses to tackle the global crisis
and also to save our economy We also needed it to upgrade the health
infrastructure and increase the capacity of beds to meet the demand that might
arise due to this pandemic
------------------------

Sir after six months of the lockdown when we are in the 4th stage of the
unlock process now the question then arises did we use the time on our hands
effectively and efficiently
If we look at the Annualised figures of GDP for April-June quarter then
the scenario becomes more dire
India -75 per cent
UK -599 per cent
Germany -33 per cent
USA -317 per cent
Japan -278 per cent
China -546 per cent
If we look at quarter-over-quarter GDP growth between April-June 2020
over January-March 2020
India -2928 per cent
UK -204 per cent
Germany -97 per cent
USA -909 per cent
Japan -78 per cent
China -115 per cent
During an interaction of the hon Prime Minister with the Leaders of the
Parliamentary Parties on 8th April 2020 I had suggested that in order to come
out of this lockdown and protect our economy a stimulus package to the tune
of at least 10 per cent of the GDP needs to be announced This was accepted
by the hon Finance Minister and she announced a package in the same line on
12th May 2020
Of Rs 20 lakh crore stimulus package announced nearly 50 per cent of
it is in the form of liquidity measures to help banks and NBFCs to increase
lending business to stimulate growth While demand was subdued due to
COVID-19 situation banks and NBFCs were also reluctant to lend due to
potential NPA concerns Therefore the stimulus package announced for various
MSMEs and small businesses was also not in the form of grants but in the form
of loans food supply for migrant labourers and some infrastructural support
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 439
The actual expenditure of the Government is negligible with most burden on the
RBI and institutions like NABARD etc
The Government has also planned to tap construction workers fund
mineral fund and compensatory fund etc The Government has just recycled its
schemes and allocations already counted for in the budgetary allocations As
part of the COVID-19 package of Rs 54 lakh crore package announced for
MSMEs the actual cost to the Government is estimated at Rs 25000 crore only
For this as I have suggested previously the Government should review
its capital and revenue expenditure plans and classify them under three heads
as critical essential and desirable The one which is being required and is
urgent is critical the one which is being required but not urgent is essential
and the one which is not being required and also not urgent is desirable The
Government should delay the expenditure that is not critical and divert that
amount towards the second stimulus package
We are all facing the same storm but we are not sailing in the same boat
While some sectors have prospered during these pandemic times others such
as construction travel restaurant MSMEs across all the verticals have
suffered the most
If you look at the employment report -- recently released by CMIE it states
that during the April-July period about 19 million salaried people lost their jobs
in India While salaried jobs are not easily lost but once lost they are also far
more difficult to retrieve
The package needs to be focussed on providing financial support to those
industries which see the largest loss in employment so that they have the funds
to rehire or save the jobs of their employees So the financial support and
stimulus package need to be directed to support the most vulnerable people and
businesses
While unemployment number is increasing the businesses are also
facing shortage of labour which is becoming the cause for a concern We need
to figure out a way to get the right people to the right place in order to kick start
the economic activity For this I suggest that the migrant labourers be provided
some incentives to get back to their work sites They should also be provided
some travel incentives increased healthcare facilities at labour camps to handle
COVID infections and mobile ration cards etc

During the lockdown period we have seen many gains in terms of
reduction in the levels of pollution better sanitation and hygiene and that needs
to be sustained
These measures would surely bring economy back on track in some time
However for the welfare of the people I would like to mention a few points
Under the Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Yojana insurance cover will be provided
to 2212 lakh health care providers including public healthcare providers and
private hospital staff The insurance provided will be above any other insurance
cover being availed by the beneficiary and does not require any additional
registration The premium for it will be borne by the Ministry of Health and Family
Welfare The insurance scheme was operationalised on March 30 and will be in
force till September 2020 which is extended for a further period of time of 180
days The claims of these workers should be processed quickly The police
officials who are doing their duties during these Corona times have no
insurance So the Government should introduce a similar kind of a scheme for
them as well
After the COVID-19 pandemic fishermen are in dire need of assistance
When the lockdown was announced many fishermen were in the high seas and
when they came back there were no traders and the supply chains were
crashed It resulted in the severe loss of income to the fishermen We are still in
the middle of the pandemic and the demand of fisheries is still low and therefore
they are struggling hard to meet their day to day needs As part of the
Atmanirbhar Bharat package Rs 20000 crore has been allocated to Pradhan
Mantri Matsya Sampada Yojana but it does not contain any provision for
financial assistance to the hard hit fishermen The fishermen are not even
included in PM-KISAN Scheme which they have demanded for so long I request
the Government to constitute a Fishermen Welfare Fund and sanction a special
grant to formulate schemes related to providing compensation during this tough
time Andhra Pradeshrsquos economy is significantly dependent on fisheries and
fishermen and even Andhra Pradesh has significantly contributed in the total fish
production in India
Srikakulam is also a major source of outmigration of fishermen and other
migrant workers and has recently witnessed all the migrants returning to home
especially from Veraval in Gujarat and also from Chennai The unemployment
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 441
among them has increased the job demand under MNREGA and it is the highest
ever after 2007 They need job and wages to meet their day-to-day needs very
badly The Gareeb Kalyan Rojgar Abhiyaan has been introduced to provide
livelihood to migrants who are back home in 116 districts in 6 States of India but
Srikakulam has not been included in spite of being a backward district In fact
not even one district of Andhra Pradesh has been included Andhra Pradesh has
seven backward districts out of total of 13 districts
The number of COVID-19 cases could go up in Srikakulam due to limited
availability of hospitals and COVID-care centres Therefore due to shortage of
beds patients with mild symptoms are sent back to their homes I request to
grant Rs 50 crore from PM CARES Fund to establish new COVID care centre
in the district
Under the Pradhan Mantri Street Vendorrsquos Atmanirbhar Nidhi Scheme
(PM SVANidhi Scheme) only the street vendors of urban local bodies are
included But in Srikakulam in the State of Andhra Pradesh many fish vendors
especially women work at the rural places as well If they can also be included
it would be better
With this I thank you for giving me this opportunity to speak

DR SUJAY VIKHE PATIL (AHMEDNAGAR) Thank you Sir for giving me a
chance to speak in this very important discussion on the outbreak of Corona
Pandemic in India Sir today as I stand to speak on this issue I would like to
begin with paying my tributes to the Corona warriors which include doctors
healthcare workers sanitation workers police staff and everyone who has
strengthened our fight against this virus
I would like to place on record my appreciation and gratitude to our Prime
Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji who has led from the front and with his decisive
leadership we have been able to successfully fight this battle I also thank Dr
Harshvardhan Ji for spearheading the efforts of the Ministry of Health and Family
Welfare
It is pertinent to note that we are currently facing a crisis which has
affected every single person and has brought not only the country but the whole
world to a standstill but our Government has been taking decisive steps at
regular intervals to ensure that every section of the society is benefited
Decisions like Atma Nirbhar Package of Rs20 lakh crore or PM Garib Kalyan
Yojana which has benefited more than 80 crore people are testaments to our
effective governance
Sir the Opposition has been regularly criticizing the decision of lockdown
instead of supporting the government in the fight against Corona It has been
estimated that this decision prevented approximately 14 lakh to 29 lakh cases
and 37000 to 78000 deaths
Further these four months were utilised to create additional health
infrastructure enhance human resource and produce within India critical
elements such as PPEs N-95 masks and ventilators A case in point is increase
in dedicated isolation beds around 363 times and dedicated ICU beds above
246 times to what existed in March 2020
Whereas there was no indigenous manufacturing of PPE with the
requisite standards at that point in time we are now self-sufficient and in a
position to even export the same
------------------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 444
Sir I have few suggestions and recommendations
1 COVID-19 Fund
Under the National Health Mission the Government had in April 2020
announced significant investments to the tune of Rs15000 crores for India
COVID-19 Emergency Response and Health System Preparedness Package
The funds sanctioned will be utilized for immediate COVID-19 Emergency
Response (amount of Rs7774 crores) and rest for medium-term support (1-4
years) to be provided under mission mode approach
For my Ahmednagar Lok Sabha constituency a fund of about Rs 16 crore
has come under the National Health Mission There are two things regarding
that Firstly they have different provisions for purchase of equipment beds and
everything but as of now the situation is such that availability of beds are very
less even if we put an order regarding central oxygen system or facilities you
have advised along with no provision for a rental allowance For example if a
hospital is taken and the hospital has the entire facility of beds central oxygen
system and ventilators the District Collector or the District Administration does
not have funds to give for that hospital
2 Involvement of Member of Parliament
It has been more than 3 months since this package was announced and
even when its Centrally Sponsored it is my personal experience that the
concerned Member of Parliament is not taken into confidence regarding the
utilization of these funds The entire control has been vested with the Collector
who is already overburdened with several other obligations
I am a neurosurgeon and if representatives with specialized medical
knowledge are included while deciding the disbursement of funds under this
package it will ensure a holistic and better decision making process
3 RT - PCR Test
I really appreciate that we have increased the testing I would only make
a few suggestions as to what I have realized in this RT-PCR machine There are
two systems One is open and one is closed There has been increased cases
of variability in testing with negative showing as positive and positive showing
as negative due to the kits being used in an open-based system of PCR That
is very clear evidence that I found in my lab My recommendation would be that
in districts which do not have RT-PCR labs and private labs are available the
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 445
government should provide free kits on the lines of government hospitals to
ensure free investigation by private labs because we cannot bear the cost of the
kit but we are ready to bear the cost of the technicians the electricity etc So
private labs could be wilfully coming forward to do these tests for free
4 Problems being faced due to huge Indian population in fight against COVID-
19
The large Indian population does pose challenges in terms of health
service provision
However in the context of Covid-19 India has two socio-demographic
features that confer advantage First we have a demographically young
population which is better protected against severe illness than older
populations Second nearly two-thirds of India is rural The virus spreads more
slowly in rural areas than in urban areas due to less crowd density shorter
distances that most people commute to work and more open spaces It is
necessary however that we address the need of population stabilisation
through a broad range of strategies
5 Incentives for health workers dealing directly with Corona like doctors nurses
health workers like ASHA etc
There are two types of incentives (a) removal of the hurdles and
grievances that are impeding their work or endangering them (b) positive
incentives for boosting their morale and enhancing their performance
6 Need for self-sufficiency in API Production
From being reasonably self-reliant-both in drug formulation and API
production in the early 1990s India had become mostly import-dependent in
API Last year India imported roughly Rs50000 crore worth of APIs and other
intermediaries that go into production of finished formulations About Rs31740
crore worth of these were from China alone accounting for two-third of API
imports Of the top 20 imported APIs amounting to Rs3610 crore 68 per cent
were from China For production of several medicines import intensity from
China is alarmingly high
In case of streptomycin used in treating tuberculosis (TB) and other
infections nearly all imports are from China In case of penicillin another critical
antibiotic 90 per cent of imports are from China And 70 per cent of rifampicin
API (used for TB treatment) 63 per cent of erythromycin API (an antibiotic used
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 446
especially for respiratory infections) 82 per cent of glutamic acid and its salts
(treatment for nerve disorders) 80 per cent of aniline and its salts (for antioxidant
formulations) are imported from China
This Pandemic has brought an opportunity for India to regain its status as
a self-sufficient manufacturer of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients
7 Action against China at the International Level
China has not only created tension at the border but there are also strong
evidences to state that the COVID-19 virus is a lab made virus Chinese
virologist Dr Li-Meng Yan has claimed that coronavirus COVID-19 was made in
a Wuhan laboratory Dr Li-Meng Yan who was associated with Hong Kong
School of Public Health had been researching on the coronavirus for a long
time The Chinese virologist claimed that during her research she came across
that coronavirus was developed in laboratory in China
With these recommendations and suggestions I thank the government
and conclude my speech

SHRI NAMA NAGESWARA RAO (KHAMMAM) Hon Speaker Sir I thank you
for the time allotted to put across my views on the Bill
Whereas the Bill seems to be well intended some of the areas either not
so clear or missing
Policing in India is a State subject which means there are large variations
across the States This includes forensic science facilities as well
-----------------
Laid on the Table
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 454
In a large number of cases the results of forensic science aspects are to
be explained jointly with the observations relating to forensic medicine as in case
of poisoning firearm wounds suicides etc Hence it is important that studies in
Forensic medicines are also given due emphasis A burning case in point is the
case of alleged suicide by a Bollywood film actor being investigated and
discussed in media
Further the regional aspects are also to be given due consideration
Every region or State has its own issues and problems be it economic social
and cultural or such other factors or a combination of factors Therefore specific
studies are important and may be promoted even by the institutes of national
importance
There are other institutions of State and Centre that are also engaged in
similar works These institutions academic research centres laboratories and
other field units also need to be developed and integrated with these central and
State universities This will create synergy among them make the outcome
qualitative and more purposeful Such an arrangement will also make our effort
more efficient and avoid duplication as well as highlight areas of focus
It is suggested to create a knowledge-pool of the achievements of all such
institutions regional Central or belonging to States Such a sharing platform will
benefit all these organisations and keep them updated
To derive full benefit of the services of these institutions facilities for early
dissemination of knowledge is needed This will also benefit in identifying the
areas if studies to be given more focus or new areas to be studied
The State of Telangana has opened three regional Forensic Science
Laboratories This has not only made collection of evidence from the scene of
crimes faster but also saved evidences from destruction due to time gap
Further the early expert opinion has resulted in faster completion of
investigation of cases
Under the able and dynamic leadership of our CM of Telangana Shri KCR
garu the State police has brought various reforms in the Department for
providing better policing for the sake of people The State police are
implementing a number of Information Technology (IT) initiative that helped
police in detection and prevention of crimes in the State
20092020 RSGASA UncorrectedNot for publication 455
Vacancies have been filled up and the police have come up with several
initiatives to engage with communities People are now bringing issues to the
notice of the police and throw up various facts social media etc and their
grievances are being addressed They are delivering round the clock revises for
crime prevention women safety and all other aspects There have been no
extremists and Maoist activities since the formation of the State
The State Government has made a provision for a sum of Rs 5852 crore
for police Department in the financial year 2020-21 Telangana received special
incentive funds of Rs 769 crore under modernisation scheme of the Centre due
to efficient implementation of police reforms in the State
These achievements show that modernisation of Police Force of the State
is important and the most important factor to strengthen the internal security
Hence the Centre should allocate more and more funds under this scheme and
continue the scheme as modernisation is an ongoing process Also the
allocation under the scheme be made on the basis of need of the State than the
population base so that the State police is able to achieve its modernisation
targets early and people are benefited
The most important aspect is how to take the benefits to the ground
Modalities may be developed to lay a mechanism for sharing of benefits by
stakeholders as early as possible Hon Police Commission reports that even
judicial guidelines could hardly be implemented due to various factors as stated
above Hence it is important that the State police is strengthened and
modernised
Our society is fast changing and so are the needs and aspirations of
people Rapid advancement of technology is making the changes even faster
Hence the needs modes and ways of policing are to be dynamic In this
background such academic institutions are to be dynamic in their approach with
respect to academics and research Only then they can meet the needs of the
society and keep pace with the change Hence keeping the management able
for change is of utmost importance Otherwise studies and efforts may become
irrelevant
Thank you

SHRI ABDUL KHALEQUE (BARPETA) Sir I have two observations to point out First the
passage of the Bill upgrades the existing Raksha University under the Government of
Gujarat which was established in 2009 and second it is only converting a State university
into a Central University
I do not see any reason why the Government is in a hurry to upgrade a State
university which is only a decade old whereas so many State institutions of higher
education across the country are demanding upgradation There are so many autonomous
and Central Government institutes of higher education One of the recent additions in 2018
was National Rail And Transportation Institute in Vadodara Why is the Government only
considering to establish premier institutions in Gujarat alone There are so many States
with lesser number of higher educational institutes We cannot put everything into one
basket There is a need to create a balance all over the country as far as education is
concerned Establishing such institutes also leads to development of that particular area
I can understand that Gujarat is the home State of Modi ji and Amit Shah ji but there are
other States too As one of the representatives of the people of North-East I hereby
demand the establishment of a campus of the university in Assam
I have no reason to hide the fact that the very name lsquoRashtriya Raksha Universityrsquo
is a bit deceiving The Rashtriya Raksha University is proposed to be a multi-disciplinary
university to create new knowledge through research and collaboration with different
stakeholders and help to fulfil the need for a pool of trained professionals with specialised
knowledge and new skill sets in various wings of policing criminal justice system and
correctional administration The university will have a linkage with world class universities
in other countries which will be on need basis for the purpose of exchange of contemporary
research academic collaboration course design technical knowhow training and skill
development

SHRI POCHA BRAHMANANDA REDDY (NANDYAL) Sir this Bill seeks to
provide for the establishment of the Rashtriya Raksha University and declares
the University to be an institution of national importance The Bill also repeals
the 2009 Act Our Party welcomes this initiative
There is an urgent need for institutions to provide police and security
services with the necessary academic knowledge professional skills and
community orientation At present there are only a few institutions in the
country which provide the environment infrastructure and specialisation for
imparting education in police sciences

शरी अधीर रजन चौधरी (बहरामपर) सर ि बोिना चाहता ह ा The Bill only covers close-
out netting The current Bill fails to provide other kinds of bilateral netting
practices for example netting by novation Netting by novation is a contractual
agreement whereby parties agree that all contracts between themselves will be
consolidated into a single contract as soon as each new contract is entered into
It reduces counterparty credit risk by affecting a discharge of each individual
foreign exchange contract or other obligation as it is netted If the Bill is intended
to truly widen the scope of the netting practice in India it could have included
methods such as netting by novation and payment netting
My second point is that there is potential for money-laundering and tax
avoidance Netting is allowed for transfer of money without actual transfer of
money Therefore netting becomes a potential bidding ground for trade-based
money-laundering and tax avoidance practices How will the Bill help in
regulating and offsetting this risk
Thirdly it is an overambitious move It is claimed by the Principal
Economic Adviser Shri Sanjeev Sanyal in an interview that this Bill will act as an
enabler to the corporate default swap market This in turn will help lay the
necessary condition to set up a liquid Indian corporate bond market CDS is not
a prerequisite for setting up a corporate bond market and there are major issues
with regard to regulation and supervision of both the CDS and bond market
which will not be mitigated by the introduction of this legislation What provision
has the Government made to address the regulatory issues arising due to the
legislation
My last point is about the impact on bank capital This Bill may not have a
significant impact on the capital of banks The ratio of market trade to the loan
book of public sector banks is not so high as to generate considerable capital-
saving from bilateral netting Thank you
