Mpox Panic Hits India: Airports on High Alert as Govt Designates Top Hospitals for Outbreak Response

The Indian government is ramping up its response to the Mpox outbreak, following the World Health Organization’s global health emergency declaration.

In a move to safeguard public health, the Centre has ordered heightened vigilance at all major airports and border land ports, particularly those linked to Bangladesh and Pakistan.

Delhi's Ram Manohar Lohia Hospital, Safdarjung Hospital, and Lady Hardinge Hospital have been designated as key centers for Mpox management.

The health ministry is also instructing state governments to set up similar facilities and enhance surveillance.

Despite no current cases in India, the country is preparing for any potential outbreaks with upgraded testing capabilities and public awareness campaigns.

Hindu Terror Victims: Pahalgam Massacre and the Global Silence on Hindu Persecution

The bloodbath in Pahalgam is not an isolated tragedy—it is the latest chapter in a long history of violence against Hindu terror victims. Twenty-six innocent lives, mostly tourists, were killed not for profit or politics—but simply for being Hindu and Indian. The Hindu terror victims of Pahalgam now join the forgotten exodus of Kashmiri Pandits from 1990, the persecuted minorities in Pakistan and Bangladesh, and the silenced families across South Asia. Under Prime Minister Modi, India is no longer passive—abrogation of Article 370, Balakot strikes, and upcoming decisive actions mark a new era. This episode examines how India is preparing to respond, why the world looks away, and what it means for the future of Hindu terror victims worldwide. The time for silence is over. #HinduTerrorVictims#PahalgamMassacre #ModiAgainstTerror #NeverForget1990 #JusticeForHindus ~GR.122~PR.282~HT.318~
