    Demand for improved quality of roads

    The country is losing too many lives because of bad traffic. Cities like Bangalore, Mumbai, Delhi, Kolkota, Chennai, etc. has bad traffic not only because of high density of vehicles. 65% of the traffic accidents and congestion can be reduced if we have good roads. Naturally, the people driving vehicle when they see a pot-hole, they tend to deviate from the current lane causing others to hit breaks. If luckily, the person on the other lane is skilled enough to control the vehicle, nothing major happens. This causes disruption in traffic flow. This not only causes accidents, but majority of the country's fuel is wasted because of this as the vehicles are on idling due to non-moving traffic. The authorities should make sure that a proper motor-able road is provided before closing any road for construction so that there's no disruption in usual traffic. Please join hands with me to demand for good quality roads.

    Petition to The Home Minister, Govt. of India, Atishi Marlena, Atishi

    Give Delhi's children improved education - Reinstate Atishi Marlena

    To,  The Home Minister Government of India  Atishi Marlena, Advisor to Delhi’s Education Minister Manish Sisodia has been instrumental in transforming Delhi's government schools over the last 3 years. A Stephenian with a Masters in Education from Oxford, a Chevening Scholar as well as a Rhodes Scholar, Atishi has been serving the city's schools for a salary of Re 1 per month. Your Ministry in the Central government led by the BJP has ordered that Atishi be sacked from her position claiming her position was never approved by the Centre.  The phenomenal improvements in the quality of education offered to children in Delhi's government schools are a product of Atishi's quiet labour behind the scenes. Her contribution has been acknowledged by academics, organisations working in education, politicians across party lines and even the sharpest critics of the Aam Aadmi Party.  The Centre has routinely caused hindrances to derail the work of the Delhi government. However this sacking has put a face on the Centre's persecution of the Delhi government. The order dismissing Atishi’s appointment is more than a personal or political attack. It is an attack on the citizens of Delhi who have long suffered corrupt and incompetent governance. It is an attack on Delhi’s children who finally have a chance to get the opportunity they deserve.   As citizens of this country who believe that politics needs people like Atishi Marlena in positions of power to influence governance for the better, we urge you to reconsider your decision to dismiss Atishi and reinstate her with immediate effect.

    Improved sporting facilities for Droitwich Spa

    By signing this petition, we can demonstrate to the Town Council and Wychavon District Council the support we have to improve the sporting facilities for our community. The King George V Community Interest Company, a joint venture between Droitwich Spa Sports clubs, has been collaborating for 3 years to significantly improve the sporting facilities for the town. Located at King George V Playing Fields, Briar Mill (behind the Sports Centre) we believe, as do Wychavon District Council, Worcs FA, and the Playing Pitch strategy developed by WDC, that this is the best site to achieve the aim of supporting all clubs and sport generally in Droitwich Spa, albeit on a landfill site which increases the cost. We have achieved a lot so far but the overall goal was to work with Wychavon District Council to improve the playing pitches and the development of a 3G Community sports pitch, and modernised facilities. We thanks you for your past support, BUT WE NEED YOUR CONTINUED SUPPORT. The national standards for outdoor sports pitches are recognised by 75% of local authorities in the country. With the INCREASING POPULATION of Droitwich Spa and the INCREASED REVENUE THAT BRINGS we will soon have only about 40% of the playing pitches that we should have, which its totally inadequate. Despite many meetings with Wychavon District Council who allegedly support the project we believe that progress is too slow and they are prevaricating over the cost. We therefore need to petition the council demonstrating the community needs and support for our campaign

    Stop Masshealth budget cuts for improved patient care!

    The recent Masshealth cuts($6M) are destroying the health of Massachusetts residents by decreasing the ability for providers to afford to give the patient services he/she needs including nursing, Home Health Aid , Physical and Occupational Therapy services.  The reimbursement rates are so low that Home Health Agencies are not able to send in the appropriate services in to care for people at the needed frequency because they would be operating at a loss.   The rates that are allowed by Masshealth do not allow clinicians to be paid at the market rate. Clinicians are being asked to cut corners in patient care in order to make ends meet.   Actual scenario:  An RN was treating a patient who is blind and diabetic.  This patient had no support system at all.  The Home Health Agency in order to cut costs asked the RN to stop seeing the patient and teach a neighbor (who the patien didn't know) to give her insulin shots.   The likelihood of this neighbor actually being reliable to complete this task is low making the re-hospitalization rate high.  If nursing can't come in on a regular basis, this patient will end up in a Nursing Home in order to get 2 insulin shots per day.  She received a few hours of HHA services for basic care.  Otherwise, the patient was able to manage on her own at home.  Paying for nursing home care instead of home health care increases Masshealth costs exponentially.  Not to mention, the quality of life of the patient.   Another patient, just came home from a joint replacement.  Due to his insurance being Masshealth, this patient did not get referred for Physical Therapy.  The patient didn't get what he needed and ended up in increased pain and decreased function. Again, increasing Masshealth costs with more doctors visits, hospitalizations and possible need for Nursing Home Care. These are just 2 examples out of thousands of what we are seeing as clinicians in the Home Health Care industry. It is affecting the quality of care that is being provided, creating ethical dilemmas for clinicians and difficulty filling home care positions due to the low rate of reimbursement.  Please join us in our fight to increase Masshealth rates to allow clinicians to provide the care that our patients so desperately need!  Contact your local representative, senator and Governor Baker regarding how it affecting you and your patients or people you know!!

    Improved air connectivity of Aurangabad Airport (IXU)

    During the last few years, Aurangabad city had seen vast expansion in terms of industrial growth. But the air connectivity at IXU airport, Aurangabad did not grow as expected. A high demand from passengers are to the destinations Pune, Nagpur, Goa, Jaipur, Kolkata, Bengaluru, Chennai, Mumbai, Delhi, and int'l destinations like Bangkok, Dubai, Tokyo, Beijing. Thus requesting the minister and the airlines to kindly and predominantly consider IXU in their network planning.

    Petition to Half Hollow Hills Central School District

    Improved Safety in Half Hollow Hills

    On behalf of the student body of Half Hollow Hills High School East, We demand the following reforms to enhance and ensure the protection of the students and faculty of our school: To have lockdown drills taken more seriously, with the entire school population adhering to and following the instructions of the drill. To have school assemblies to inform students how to recognize signs of a school shooter and how to utilize our school’s anonymous tip system. The current tip system in guidance is barely known among the student and faculty body and it must be popularized throughout our district for it to be effectively used.  To have reinforced glass installed in windows on and around each classroom door. To get rid of soft- pressure doors, as it would allow for teachers to close the doors quickly in the case of facing a threat. To be able lock doors from the inside of classrooms, as opposed to only be able to lock them from the outside.  For teachers to have panic buttons, which can be secured with a unique faculty passcode, so teachers could alert nearby law enforcement and administration of any threat. For each classroom to have a red tape “line of sight” drawn on the floor of each classroom. To have professionally trained security guards to ensure our safety. For all personnel of the school to present their photo I.D. upon entry to the school. We wish for these demands, we wish for at least some change because enough is enough. Students should not be afraid to pursue their educations. “Each generation has their moment, our moment is now.”   Sincerely, The Fearful Future of America

    Mental health services to be improved

    Hi, my name is Ashleigh Wilson and I'm 15, having been in mental health services for around 1-1/2 / 2 years I find it horrific that it's only getting worse. I suffer from depression, generalised anxiety disorder and a mood disorder of some form. I'm being medicated for bipolar as I do present a lot of symptoms but because I'm so young there is no diagnosis of such at present. I get into crisis' fairly often, I'm not ashamed to ask for help because when I need it, I need it, and chances are if I don't get camhs involved I will proceed to damage my self which I will only regret after. The last few weeks have been particularly tricky as my physical health has been flaring up and I've had events happen which was very stressful and unnecessary. I asked to see my family therapist as I was in urgent need of help, I got a nasty attitude from her asking me "what do you want me to do about it?" Now, being a professional you should know what to do in a crisis, along side this I was told I was asking for too much and that camhs is not a "drop in centre", I've been told numerous times it's "government cutbacks" and whilst I agree that is the main cause of the problem, that's not good enough. Mental health is a problem that's only getting worse, of which affecting many more people my age that it ever has before. My hopes and dreams right now is for me to be back into my old mainstream school that I attended from years 7-9 and to be able to complete my GCSEs and become a vet, whilst this will be extremely hard for me to do so with the amount of education I've missed, I'm determined to do so. My mental state has led me out of school many, many times. Through self harming in school (which now I'm in a better mind frame, I am truly sorry because it was totally unacceptable to put my teachers in that position, but that was my mental illness that took over me, that isn't the ashleigh that many people know). My aim for this petition is to get the governments attention and for them to start doing what they should be doing, mental health is killing so many people and it's just awful, so many beautiful souls lost all because of "cutbacks"? This is not good enough. Please can everyone sign this petition so we can do something about this because I've had enough of people swiping it under the carpet.

    CCTV & new improved policy & procedure practices for all Australian slaughterhouses!

    I had a good long look at how animals are treated at slaughter houses around Australia (unfortunately there is hours of footage on the net). Most people, including me are shocked to see how poorly animals are treated at a substantial number of slaughterhouses. Many animals are really, really frightened and suffer a lot, it's shattering to watch and that's why I have to start this petition. A solution to this is the introduction of CCTV in all slaughterhouses and a review of animal welfare standards & policies. Most farmers generally care about their animals and often they care very much. It is so sad to see how badly many are treated once they leave the farm, it's our responsibility to initiate change...we owe it to those thousands of animals that are here for such a short, crappy time. Please sign and/or share my petition...thank you.
