  • Discover the National Indo-American Museum’s Latest Oral History Initiative


    Consul General of Chicago Mr. Somnath Ghosh addresses the NIAM audience

     CHICAGO IL: The National Indo-American Museum (NIAM) launched its latest Oral History initiative called Broadening Narratives on July 19, 2024. The event, held at NIAM’s Umang and Paragi Patel Center at 815 S. Main St. in Lombard, was attended by the Consul General, Somnath Ghosh, other invited speakers, and members of the community including those whose stories are already featured on NAM’s website.

    Funded by the Gaylord and Dorothy Donnelly Foundation, the Broadening Narratives project seeks to go beyond the portrayal of Indian Americans as a highly educated and successful immigrant group. It will diversify NIAM’s Oral History collection by adding the voices of Indian Americans from a broad range of socio-economic levels, including marginalized and under-represented groups, such as LGBTQ+, retail clerks, gas station attendants, people living in shelters or on government assistance, and the undocumented.The Consul General spoke of the importance of a community capturing its own story in authentic, first-person voices instead of leaving it solely in the hands of others to interpret the Indian American experience. NIAM Board members explained the process by which interviewees would be sought out and interviewed by well-trained professionals on the project team. Team members including Project Director Padma Rangaswamy, Board member Devalina Law, Exhibition Chair Raja Nadimpalli, and Project Manager Amita Banerji, addressed the audience. NIAM digital archivist Ina Cox and NIAM consultant Peter Alter, Chief Oral Historian at the Chicago History Museum gave the audience a fuller understanding of how to get the most out of the NIAM oral history web pages. The new oral histories will be posted on the NIAM website and made accessible to the widest possible audience, including historians and researchers.

Among the many individuals whose story is told in the exhibition is revolutionary freedom fighter Har Dayal Mathur (1884 – 1939) who lived in the US and devoted his life to the cause of Indian independence from the British.  His great-granddaughter, Nisha Grover, was one of the featured speakers at the Broadening Narratives event.  She presented a fascinating family story of her great-grandfather, his worldwide travels, and his connection to the homeland.

    Desi Roots and Wings is open to the public at 815 S. Main St. in Lombard on Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays from Noon to 4 pm. Group tours at other times are available by appointment. Admission is $10, free for children 5 and younger. Free parking is available.

  • Vascular Society of India’s Walkathon in Pune Promotes Vascular Health


    Vascular Society of India’s Walkathon in Pune

    Vascular Society of India’s Walkathon raises awareness for an amputation-free India 

    PUNE: On the occasion of National Vascular Day, a walkathon was organized in Pune by the Vascular Society of India (VSI) to focus on the critical issues of amputation prevention and vascular health awareness. Vascular Society of India’s Walkathon saw enthusiastic participation from over 200 residents, who gathered at the VC office of Savitribai Phule Pune University to join the cause. The event was a part of the national walkathon which brought together over 15,000 participants across 30 cities including Pune. 

    According to the World Health Organization (WHO), over 1 million limb amputations occur globally each year, with a significant portion being preventable through early intervention and proper management of risk factors. In India, around 40-50% of all amputations are due to complications from vascular diseases, particularly diabetes. This highlights the critical need for increased awareness and preventive measures to manage risk factors like high blood sugar, hypertension, and high cholesterol. 

    Flagging off the walkathon, Dr. Pranjal Sawant, Consultant Vascular Surgeon at KEM Hospital Pune said, “The majority of surgical amputations occur due to complications associated with vascular diseases and other conditions affecting blood circulation, such as diabetes and peripheral arterial disease (PAD). This walkathon was a powerful step towards our shared goal of an amputation-free world, increasing awareness about the severity of vascular diseases. We owe this success to the Vascular Society of India for their proactive role and exceptional support.”

    Commenting on the initiative, Dr.Tapish Sahu, Secretary of the Vascular Society of India, stated, “Our objective is to enhance community health by establishing a comprehensive vascular healthcare framework, striving for an amputation-free India. The overwhelming response across the nation is very encouraging. It is inspiring to see so many people come together for such a vital cause. The walkathon not only highlights the importance of vascular health but also underscores the power of community in driving change.”

    “Today’s event is a significant milestone in our mission to reduce preventable amputations in India,” said Dr. P C Gupta, President of the Vascular Society of India. “The nationwide participation demonstrates the growing commitment to vascular health and the power of collective action in driving meaningful change.”

    Preventing vascular diseases requires a multifaceted approach that includes maintaining a healthy lifestyle, regular physical activity, and routine medical check-ups. A balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, along with the avoidance of smoking and excessive alcohol consumption, plays a crucial role in vascular health. Additionally, managing underlying lifestyle conditions through medication and lifestyle changes can significantly reduce the risk of vascular complications. Public awareness campaigns and educational initiatives are essential to inform people about these preventive measures and the importance of early detection and treatment of vascular conditions.

    The Vascular Society of India, a prominent chapter of the World Federation of Vascular Societies, collaborates with an extensive network of medical specialists, surgeons, interventionalists, nurses, and allied health professionals, all dedicated to the cause of saving limbs and lives. With over 700 active members across the country, VSI stands as one of the largest and most influential chapters globally, consistently working towards mitigating preventable amputations and enhancing patient care in the vascular health domain.

  • The Role of Technology in Preventing Fraud and Accelerating Business Development

    INDIA: India’s digital revolution will likely lead to 1 billion UPI transactions in the next few years. Currently, India is emerging as a world leader in digital payments by accounting for  46% of all digital payments in the world. Leveraging digital payments is an unmissable strategy for businesses in India’s growing digital economy.

    However, the rise in digital payments has also led to a rise in online fraud. In the past three years alone, online scams have caused a collective loss of Rs. 1.25 lakh crore. In response, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has established various committees focused on protecting individuals and businesses, and the financial sector is increasingly turning to cutting-edge technology to tackle these threats.

    Technology plays a crucial role in safeguarding businesses from online fraud while enabling them to benefit from the country’s growing digital economy.

    Akash Sinha, CEO & Co-Founder, Cashfree Payments

    Akash Sinha, CEO & Co-Founder, of Cashfree Payments, said, “In today’s digital landscape, prioritizing safety and security against fraudulent transactions is crucial for businesses to avoid financial losses and protect their reputation. Leveraging technology-driven innovations that use AI and ML algorithms can significantly enhance defenses against fraud. These advanced solutions are transforming the security framework for online transactions in India, providing merchants with unmatched protection and peace of mind.”

    Today, secure payment solutions are required to protect businesses from fraud-related losses and build trust with customers.

    “Many businesses either overlook the importance of fraud and risk detection tools or use ones that can’t stop fraudulent transactions in real time. Additionally, creating effective fraud solutions often requires special certifications. However, it’s crucial to recognize that when customers feel secure about their transactions, they’re more likely to make repeat purchases and recommend the business to others, which drives growth.”, Akash added.

    Payment solutions that are technology-driven have complete risk management capabilities.  Data security measures like encryption and tokenization ensure that all customer data is protected, reducing the chances of data breaches. Furthermore, robust risk management systems can assist companies in meeting regulatory obligations, thereby reducing additional risks.

    Sinha further said, “At Cashfree Payments, we have built ‘RiskShield’ through extensive research to provide businesses with a comprehensive risk management solution to combat cybercrime. Designed to address issues such as high chargebacks and fraud, RiskShield is effective across various sectors including financial services, e-commerce, and travel. Utilizing advanced AI and ML algorithms, RiskShield helps businesses reduce fraudulent activities by up to 40%.”

    In the modern business world, companies can only succeed if they begin to invest in sophisticated fraud detection systems, secure payment gateway technologies, and extensive customer verification procedures.
