Chittoor Farmers worried over movement of 3 elephants close to their fields

Official attributes their presence to flowering season of mangoes
Three lone elephants, which are reportedly on prowl close to the fields at Jagamarla, Keelapatla and Kuppam, are giving tense moments to farmers at villages abutting the Koundindya wildlife sanctuary.
The crop-raiding elephants have become active in the Kuppam, Punganur and Palamaner ranges since the last week of January, a time when the mango gardens in the region are set for flowering. The field activity is considered a big lure to the pachyderms.

Under the NBS, newborns are screened for communication disorders before they are discharged from the hospital. For this, AIISH has collaborated with several hospitals to conduct screening which is performed to detect hearing impairment and other developmental disabilities that can affect speech and language development. The screening has been helping in early intervention for those identified with the disorders, as any delay in the identification poses risk and affects successful management of children with hearing loss, according to AIISH.
