[Parvathy Mills - Kollam (Quilon).Can we Open this Mill as a Nano textile Mill.]
Sri.Anantharamann,,M.Com,C &W A is a costing expert in textiles manufacturing. He joined the mills in the year 1967 as Secretary of Parvathy Mill employees co-operative society Ltd. at that period the mill was under Kerala Govt Managed mills.Sri S.Anantharaman is wondering if a Land that FED millions, the Land a gift of the King of Kerala will be handed over by interested men to some who will pollute the Land.
Parvathy Mill was known as University of Trade Unions but for Mr.Anantharaman who did his M.Com while working in the mills, it was his Post Graduate university.He joined the mills after the Mill was taken over by the 1972 Ordinance moved by the Prime Minister of India, Smt.Indira Gandhi who brought under her govt control all them (including non working textile mills) 111 textile mills which was in various stages of unproductive due to lockout,strike,closures and mismanagement by throwing out lakhs of workers on the street for months and no sight of reopening or mis managed like MSK Mills and Parvathi Mills which was under the famous Sri.Karimuthu Tyagarajar who ran over 1,00,000 spindles under his 18 textile mills spread over Tamil Nadu and Kerala. If he was alive, perhaps he could have managed all 111 textile Mills.As a mark of respect I insert a picture of Sri.Karimuthu Tyagaraja Chettiar's picture who is no more with us, he employed in his 18 Mills 1000 of Textile Tecnocrats and so many that he employed even to train by Japanese Expert Dr.T.Hanada and many other workmen.CAN WE TURN PARVATHY MILL AS A Nano Textile Mill? YES WE CAN.
His Highness Visakham Thirunal Rama Varma, the then Maharaja of Travancore took the initiative to start a spinning mill in Quilon city (now known as Kollam) which was then business capital of Travancore along the Malabar Coast. He donated the land to start the AD Cotton Mill in 1884. The land was handed over to National Textile Corporation in 1974.
The NTC planned to privatize Parvathy Mills in 2005. The plant was added by the Board for Industrial and Financial Reconstruction who had listed it for revival in 2002. The plan was dropped after protests by the Parvathy Mills Workers Union.Along with many other mills in Mumbai, Coimbatore, Ahmadabad, Aurangabad, Akola, Nanded, Naini, Jaipur and Udaipur, Parvathy Mill was slated for redevelopment and modernization in 2007 and 2012. To date these improvements have not taken place, and mill has been closed since 2008.As per the market rates in 2019, the total land value of Parvathy Mill would be more than ₹500 crore (US$70 million). The defunct mill's machinery has already become outdated and rusted beyond revival.
Representatives from Kollam along with organizations staged a dharna and march in February 2014 to try to obtain the Parvathy Mill land as the site for a government medical college. The mill is on 16.40 acres of prime city land[4] valued at more than Rs.4 billion (US$64 million) as per the market value of 2014.[citation needed] As of December 2014, administrative delays in deciding on a site and obtaining land continue to delay the start of construction of the new college.
The company was founded in 1884 by British citizen A.D. Cotton and was the lifeline of Kollam before independence. This mill was taken for rent for running by a Tamil enterprise after Independence as the land was owned by the Kerala State Textile Corporation at that time. It was later was handed over to the NTC. The company has 120 employees, six of which are NTC staffers and 17 are casual workers. The plant has been shut down since 2008 pending modernization. However, there is demand to build a bird sanctuary connected to backwaters.

Dublin, May 29, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE)The "Nanotextiles: Opportunities and Global Markets" report
has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com
This report provides an updated review of nanotextile technology, including materials and
production processes, and identifies current and emerging applications for this technology.
Nanotextiles are a class of textiles that utilize nanotechnology during their fabrication
process. In particular, the term nanotextiles applies to four categories of products: nanocoated
textiles, fabrics consisting of nanofiber webs, textiles obtained from composite fibers based on
nanostructures, and nanoporous textiles.
Although the origin of nanotechnology can be traced back to the 4th century, the first
nanotextiles were only introduced during the 1980s in the form of nanofiber-based membranes
for filtration. During the past 40 years, sales of nanotextiles have expanded steadily and are
currently experiencing very strong growth, due to their increasing use in the fabrication of
mass-market products within a range of sectors
This study provides an updated, comprehensive description of nanotextiles and their characteristics, highlighting the latest developments in their fabrication technology and features. It also offers a detailed market

[ Civid - 19 - Prevention Exercise.]
Now, the researchers drew anonymized records for 48,440 adult men and women who used the Kaiser health care system, had their exercise habits checked at least three times in recent years and, in 2020, had been diagnosed with Covid-19. The researchers grouped the men and women by workout routines, with the least active group exercising for 10 minutes or less most weeks; the most active for at least 150 minutes a week; and the somewhat-active group occupying the territory in between. Editors’ Picks There’s a Name for the Blah You’re Feeling: It’s Called Languishing Why Reopening Ceremonies Are So Important in New York Right Now Why the Worst N.B.A. Player Is (Probably) Still Better Than You
The researchers gathered data, too, about each person’s known risk factors for severe Covid, including their age, smoking habits, weight, and any history of cancer, diabetes, organ transplants, kidney problems and other serious, underlying conditions.
Then the researchers crosschecked numbers, with arresting results. People in the least-active group, who almost never exercised, wound up hospitalized because of Covid at twice the rate of people in the most-active group,
and were subsequently about two-and-a-half times more likely to die. Even compared to people in the somewhat-active group, they were hospitalized about 20 percent more often and were about 30 percent more likely to die.
The Kaiser Permanente health care system was well suited for this investigation, because, since 2009, it has included exercise as a “vital sign” during patient visits. In practice, this means doctors and nurses ask patients how many days each week they exercise, such as by walking briskly, and for how many minutes each time, then add that data to the patient’s medical record.
Now, the researchers drew anonymized records for 48,440 adult men and women who used the Kaiser health care system, had their exercise habits checked at least three times in recent years and, in 2020, had been diagnosed with Covid-19. The researchers grouped the men and women by workout routines, with the least activegroup exercising for 10 minutes or less most weeks; the most active for at least 150 minutes a week; and the somewhat-active group occupying the territory in between.Editors’ Picks There’s a Name for the Blah You’re Feeling: It’s Called Languishing Why Reopening Ceremonies Are So Important in New York Right Now
Of the other common risk factors for severe disease, only advanced age and organ transplants increased the likelihood of hospitalization and mortality from Covid ore than being inactive, the scientists found.
“Being sedentary was the greatest risk factor” for severe illness, “unless someone was elderly or an organ recipient,” says Dr. Robert Sallis, a family and sports medicine doctor at the Kaiser Permanente Fontana Medical Center, who led the new study. And while “you can’t do anything about those other risks,” he says, “you can exercise.”Of course, this study, because it was observational, does not prove that exercise causes severe Covid risks to drop,but only that people who often exercise also are people with low risks of falling gravely ill. The study also did not delve into whether exercise reduces the risk of becoming infected with coronavirus in the first place. Dr.Sallis points out that the associations in the study were strong. “I think, based on this data,” he says, “we can tell people that walking briskly for half an hour five times a week should help protect them against severe Covid-19.”
A walk — or five — might be especially beneficial for people awaiting their first vaccine, he adds. “I would never suggest that someone who does regular exercise should consider not getting the vaccine. But until they can get it, I think regular exercise is the most important thing they can do to lessen their risk. And doing regular exercise will likely be protective against any new variants, or the next new virus out there.”

[ LIFE TIME ACHIEVEMENT AWARD 2018 - 2019.]
Mr.Ramanna Anand has been associated with ITAMMA since the early 1960s and is among the senior-most Trustees of the Association. He was involved in some of the defining contributions of ITAMMA to the textile engineering industry during the licence raj era.
During his tenure as President, Mr.Anand along with colleagues in ITAMMA were able to persuade the Government of India to modify certification terms for imports of components and exclude bill discounting from bank credit limits thereby helping members operate in a more efficient manner
A more defining moment in Mr.Anand's entrepreneurial life has been popularising export-oriented industries in the field of textiles. As a Vice President of the All India Association of 100% EOUs, Delhi, he focused policymakers attention on the needs to support the industry as it chartered a new path to growth and success and this was seen in the setting up of India's first 100%EOUs in Cotton Spinning & terry towels.
He introduced mills to new technologies like textile Air Engineering and this enabled established exports and even smaller spinning and weaving units to access global technology that improved the quality of their production.
Mr.Anand has also been associated with industries other than textiles. His mentoring MSME units in the engineering industries have been niche, custom-built components being produced for a variety of applications with clients ranging from ISRO to G.E. He played a role in expanding the market for locally produced automobile springs at a time when this key component was entirely imported.
Mr Anand has been on the board of some reputed textile mills, the Italian Chamber of Commerce & Industry earlier of EU Chamber of Commerce in India.
A transformation is underway in India and for the textile industry, this has meant greater security on responsible and sustainable production process which in turn impacts us in the engineering and machinery sector.
With the guidance and vision of Rammanna Anand, ITAMMA is confident of serving the industry by enabling members to meet these challenges.

Bull temple.
1. Bull TempleThe Bull temple of Bangalore is dedicated to Nandi Bull, the vahana (vehicle) of Lord Shiva.Situated in Basavanagudi, this temple has been built in the Dravidian style of architecture.There is a huge idol of Nandi Bull inside the temple, measuring 4.5 m in height and 6.5 m inlength. This idol is said to have been carved out of a single rock. The bull also has a smalliron plate on its head. As per the tradition, this plate prevents the bull from growing. It isbelieved that the Vishva Bharti River originates at the feet of this statue.The legend goes that the Bull Temple was built to appease a bull that used to consume anddestroy all the groundnuts and peanuts cultivated in this area. It is also said that after thetemple was built, the bull stopped damaging the crop. As a celebration of this incident, thefarmers of Basavanagudi organized a Groundnut Fair (Kadalekai Parase), near the temple.This fair continues till date and is attended by the people of Bangalore in large numbers.Bull Temple was constructed in 16th century and is dedicated to a sacred bull. Kallekaiparse an annual festival is celebrated at the time of harvesting of peanuts during themonth of November-December.Thousands of visitors throng the city to participate in thefestival from all over the state. http://www.holybharathpilgrimage.com

COVID-19 Side Effects: COVID Survivors At Greater Risk of Mental Disorder, Says Study
For the study, researchers from the University of Oxford in the UK looked at 14 neurological and mental health disorders in 2,36,379 Covid-19 patients mostly from the US.
Published: April 9, 2021 11:56 AM IST.
By India.com Lifestyle StaffEdited by Anjali Thakur.
New Delhi: According to a large study published in the scientific journal of The Lancet Psychiatry,
one in three people who survived Covid-19 have been diagnosed with anxiety and mood disorders, within six months of infection.
For the study, researchers from the University of Oxford in the UK looked at 14 neurological and mental health disorders in 2,36,379 Covid-19 patients mostly from the US. Also Read - Night Curfew Imposed in UP’s Moradabad From 10 PM to 6 AM Till April 16, Essential Services Allowed.
The findings showed 34 percent were diagnosed with a neurological or psychiatric condition within six months of infection. The most common condition was anxiety (17 percent) and mood disorders (14 percent).
Neurological diagnoses such as stroke and dementia were rarer, but people among admitted to intensive care, 7 percent had a stroke, and almost 2 % were diagnosed with dementia.
“These are real-world data from a large number of patients. They confirm the high rates of psychiatric diagnoses after Covid-19 and show that serious disorders affecting the nervous system (such as stroke and dementia) occur too. While the latter is much rarer, they are significant, especially in those who had severe Covid-19,” said lead author Paul Harrison, Professor at the University of Oxford.
“Although the individual risks for most disorders are small, the effect across the whole population may be substantial for health and social care systems due to the scale of the pandemic and that many of these conditions are chronic.
“As a result, health care systems need to be resourced to deal with the anticipated need, both within primary and secondary care services,” Harrkson said.
The study also found a 44 percent greater risk of neurological and mental health diagnoses after Covid-19 than after flu, and a 16 percent greater risk after Covid-19 than with respiratory tract infections.
This shows that Covid-19 does lead to a greater risk of neurological and psychiatric disorders than these other health conditions, the researchers said. However, there was no clear evidence that Covid-19 led to an increased risk of Parkinson’s or and Guillain-Barre syndrome.
“Our results indicate that brain diseases and psychiatric disorders are more common after Covid-19 than after flu or other respiratory infections, even when patients are matched for other risk factors. We now need to see what happens beyond six months,” said co-author Max Taquet, from the University of Oxford.
