The <keyword id="79024" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="100" keywordseo="New-Delhi-Municipal-Council">New Delhi Municipal Council</keyword> (NDMC) has issued 80 notices this month to the <keyword id="47718" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="100" keywordseo="Rashtrapati-Bhavan">Rashtrapati Bhavan</keyword> after <keyword id="6360092" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="DENGUE">dengue</keyword> mosquitoes were found breeding at various places especially near residential quarters of the Rashtrapati Bhavan staff. 

	"During this month, we have issued around 80 notices to various departments to check mosquito breeding on their premises," a senior NDMC official told PTI.
 

	The civic body has also constituted a four-member team after a meeting with the Director of the President's Estate to brainstorm ways and means to control mosquito breeding at Rashtrapati Bhavan at the earliest.
 

	"The team consists of one member each from sanitation and horticulture units at Rashtrapati Bhavan, Central Public Works Department (CPWD) and Malaria unit of NDMC Health Department.
 

	"This team will review the mosquitogenic conditions at various places in the President Estate and will help in precautionary as well as controlling measures," the official added.
 

	The council had last week issued challans to four hospitals including AIIMS and Safdarjung, various government offices and a school here after dengue mosquitoes were found breeding on their premises.
 "We had issued challans to four hospitals including AIIMS, Safdarjung Hospital, RML Hospital and <keyword id="209925" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="100" keywordseo="Lady-Hardinge-Hospital">Lady Hardinge Hospital</keyword> after their premises were found to be breeding ground for mosquitoes," the official said. 

	The Ministries of Finance and Home Affairs, Bihar Bhawan, Sikkim Bhawan and Uttarakhand Bhawan were issued notices by the NDMC for mosquitogenic conditions on their premises. 
 

	The council staff had also detected heavy mosquito-breeding conditions in five embassies including that of Ghana, Ethiopia, Singapore, Malaysia, Bhutan, Ethiopia and the Czech Republic, but no challans have been issued to them as the civic-body doesn't have an authority to do so. 
 

	The action comes in wake of the rising figures of the total number of cases from the vector-borne disease which shoot to an alarming 530, with over 440 of them being reported in August only. Two deaths have been reported due to this disease this year. 
 

	The dengue cases in the city is up this year by 251 cases compared to what was recorded last year by this time. 
 

	"We have issued a total of 137 challans this season for mosquito breeding inside institutions and households and served 3215 notices. 
 

	"During the inspection, if the premises are tested positive for mosquito breeding, they are issued notices. But if no improvement is found in the hygiene conditions during the next inspection, the defaulters are issued challans," the official said. 
 

	Earlier this month, the South Delhi Municipal Corporation (SDMC) had also issued 80 challans to government and educational institutions in the city, including JNU, DDA, DTC and PWD, for breeding of mosquitoes in their premises. 
 

	Dengue a vector-borne disease, is transmitted by several species of mosquito within the genus Aedes. Symptoms include fever, headache, muscle and joint pains, and a characteristic skin rash that is similar to measles. 
 

	Doctors say treatment is symptomatic with no specific cure, so if patients use pain medicines indiscriminately there is a risk of becoming resistant to these.

NEW DELHI: He was one of the 4,500 guests but Delhi CM <keyword id="260213" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="Arvind-Kejriwal">Arvind Kejriwal</keyword>, in his maiden outing at President <keyword id="9937" type="COMPANY" weightage="40" keywordseo="Pranab">Pranab</keyword> Mukherjee’s ‘At Home’, stole the show. 
 
Wearing his trademark maroon sweater, muffler and floaters, Kejriwal stood in the sprawling Mughal Gardens as India’s swish set vied for autographs, pictures and sometimes just a handshake with him. 
 
It was a power moment that no one in the establishment may have imagined. Two years ago, Kejriwal had negotiated with Mukherjee, chairman of the joint drafting committee, on the Lokpal bill and had returned empty-handed. On Saturday, the two displayed a public difference of opinion. Mukherjee spoke against “populist anarchy” and Kejriwal defended his dharna as constitutional. On Sunday, as Mukherjee gave an audience to invitees from the world of diplomacy, politics, administration, arts and media, Kejriwal held a parallel durbar. 
 
Men and women showered him with unabashed praise. Several ambassadors and bureaucrats took the opportunity to introduce themselves to Kejriwal who was accompanied by his Cabinet. German ambassador Michael Steiner sought a meeting with Kejriwal for German President Joachim Gauck who is visiting India next month. The request, it emerges, was turned down by the CM’s office. Kejriwal assured him that it would be rescheduled. Another diplomat shared a joke, saying how his broken Hindi left him confused about the party’s name initially (he thought aam only meant mango). 
 The power elite gave up its pretensions, some offered him advice and encouragement, some said they were inspired and others sought his time. The CM even received a muffler as a present. The argumentative asked why he had sat in the VIP enclosure at the <keyword id="6416557" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="Republic-day">Republic Day</keyword> parade or why his party’s name had no mention of the “aam aurat”. To them all, Kejriwal gave a patient ear. In fact, the <keyword id="6356115" type="CITY" weightage="40" keywordseo="AAP">AAP</keyword> durbar went on well after the President and the PM had left the venue till security personnel stepped in to guide Kejriwal to the exit. 
 
Mukherjee too was his accessible self, meeting people gathered in the Rashtrapati Bhavan lawns. Visiting Japanese PM Shinzo Abe also met the invitees. 
 Later, <keyword id="1575" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="40" keywordseo="Congress">Congress</keyword> president Sonia Gandhi and BJP leader Sushma Swaraj got up from their chairs in the VIP enclosure and mixed with the crowd. 
 Other dignitaries present were Vice-President <keyword id="6491214" type="PERSON" weightage="40" keywordseo="Hamid-Ansari">Hamid Ansari</keyword>, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, <keyword id="6355187" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="40" keywordseo="Lok-Sabha">Lok Sabha</keyword> Speaker Meira Kumar, home minister Sushil Kumar Shinde, besides BJP leaders L K Advani and Arun Jaitley. Cabinet ministers P Chidambaram, Veerappa Moily and A K Antony were also present. 
 
Sources said close to 4,500 people had turned up. Rashtrapati Bhavan had issued e-invites this year and the entrances were manned by bar-code scanning personnel. About 60% of the invites were sent out through e-mail, bringing down costs and resources as part of Rashtrapati Bhavan’s greening exercise.

Indian President <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=Pranab+Mukherjee&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Pranab Mukherjee</a> said lack of efforts in job creation can cause disaster in the nation. While addressing a conference of <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=heads+of+educational+institutes&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">heads of educational institutes</a>, Mukherjee said job creation figures were the lowest in the last seven years and it is now the top most priority. “The job creation figures of 1.35 lakh in 2015, which is the lowest in seven years, are not encouraging,” he said. 
 
Mukherjee emphasized on harmonious and peaceful environment for students to go for higher studies and asked the concerned departments to facilitate academic ladder. He also asked the institutions to control the student unrest in the institutions. 
 
"There have been incidences of student unrest in our institutions in recent past. Our campuses must have a harmonious and peaceful environment for students to pursue higher studies and research. Vice-chancellors and directors must deal with any unpleasant situation with sagacity,” he said. 
 
Mukherjee said country's institutions must become magnets for talent by shifting from "brain drain" to "brain rain". 
 "In India, we have enough talent. With the largest population of the young, we are poised to leverage a low dependency ratio. But that depends on the productivity of the population in the working age bracket. If there are enough <keyword id="11018" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Jobs">jobs</keyword> in the country, there will be content, refinement and perfection. An opposite scenario can spell disaster,” the president said. 
 
"The restlessness and frustration of youth manifests in unrest and upheaval. Let us not allow such a situation to appear on our horizon. We must turn our evolving demographic configuration into strength. For that, adequate job creation is a priority. The job creation figures of 1.35 lakh in 2015, which is the lowest in seven years, are not encouraging,” he added. 
 
He also said that the country needs to look at the paradigm shift as machines are now replacing men in foreign countries and many talented professionals are looking forward to coming back to India. 
 
"From 'brain drain', we must shift to abundance of 'brain rain', as many successful Indian professionals working abroad are keen to come back, excited by the opportunities unfolding in a changing India. With adequate thrust on internationalisation of our institutions, we can develop 'brain networks'," Mukherjee said, addressing the second visitor's conference at <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=Rashtrapati+Bhavan&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Rashtrapati Bhavan</a>.

It offers integrated data visualization, near real-time collaboration and deep analytics to help enhance the ongoing efficiency that will improve the efficiency of services for its residents. 
 A Citizens Mobile App, created by IBM <keyword id="6354733" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="100" keywordseo="IOC">IOC</keyword>, was also launched, which allows residents to report issues using the web and mobile. The data from reported observation will be supplied to city offices, where they can use the insights to make informed decisions. 
 
The <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=RASHTRAPATI+BHAWAN&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Rashtrapati Bhavan</a> has stood witness to India’s transformation through the decade - right from independence to the digital era. The progressive outlook is further exemplified by the digital transformation that enhances its reputation as being the office and residence of the President of the largest democracy in the world. 
 
“Rashtrapati Bhavan is an iconic representation of India’s Smart City vision. It is a proud moment for all of us and the beginning of a great journey. We are honored to be their partner in enabling this transformation,” said Vanitha Narayanan, MD, IBM India Pvt. Ltd. 
 As a part of this strategic engagement, IBM developed the vision and detailed roadmap for the transformation of the Presidents estate into a <keyword id="2966814" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="smart-township">smart township</keyword>. IBM has created the business architecture and operating procedures, implemented the technology platform and solutions, and is managing the entire technology deployment. For the Presidential Estate’s progressive digital transformation IBM will provide the following: 
 
Smart Energy Management: With over 1500 residential apartment and well-lit open spaces the Presidential Estate consumes over one-lakh units of electricity per day. IBM integrated its IOC system with electrical billing system. Data on consumption patterns of consumers, public and common areas, within the estate, is being collected to optimize energy management. Additionally, newer, eco-friendly technology such as solar power, LED lamps for street lighting and other applications to reduce energy consumptions are deployed. 
 
Smart Water Management: The water management at the Estate relied heavily on manual intelligence. IBM mapped all water domain assets such as underground water reservoirs, pump locations and tube well assets. The entire water distribution pipeline was mapped on a Geographical Information Systems (GIS) layer. Through IBM IOC system accurate information about the distribution network will enable faster diagnostic and resolution of water incidents. Moreover, residents will be able to track complains in real-time. 
 
Smart Waste and Horticulture Management: IBM mapped waste management end to end from waste bin collections, rickshaw routes, disposals, landfill, and processing, on to its IOC system. An interface was created for people to generate statistics on different kinds of waste. Digitized waste lifecycle statistics and trends helped relevant departments analyze insights and improve processes to enable timely actions. A Mobile App platform assists teams in maintaining a cleaner Estate. 
 
Smart Security Systems: IBM integrated its IOC system with e-visitor to facilitate analyses of all visitors’ statistics. IBM IOC is also leveraged for auto alerts and to generate notifications for upcoming events enabling teams to collaborate across departments and plan collectively for an upcoming event.
