ernment will start the
process for hiring heli-
copters. The Civil Avia-
tion Department has
made preparations to
hire helicopters on rent
till the commencement
of the code of conduct
for the assembly polls.
A proposal has been
sent to the Finance De-
partment for this. Ten-
ders for five to eight
seater helicopters will
be issued after the ap-
proval from the CM.
The helicopter with
VVIP facilities will be
taken from the compa-
ny with the lowest bid.
Helicopters are need-
ed for visits during elec-
tion time. The state gov-
ernment’s plan to buy
new government air-
craft and helicopters
has been shelved. After
the presentation of the
companies regarding
this, the whole process
could have taken up to
one-and-a-half-years.
So, the government will
have to run its work
only with hired aircraft
during election tours.
Earlier, the govern-
menthadfour-seaterand
single engine helicop-
ters. Seeing the short-
comings of those heli-
copters, this time the
process of purchasing
multi-turbine engine
helicopters was started.
A VVIP helicopter with
a multi-turbine engine
was to be purchased,
which could cost Rs 100
crore. Besides, VVIP 12
seater jet aircraft pur-
chase was proposed.
This would have cost be-
tween Rs 200 to Rs 250
crore.Itcouldhavetaken
six months to one-and-a-
half-years for the entire
process from tender to
completion. So, helicop-
ters on rent will be hired
for tours during polls.

he coronation ceremony Charles
III is about to go through reflects
how monarchy has developed
since Saxon times, but it still
carries many vestiges of Brit-
ain’s imperial past.
In the 18th century, the royal
title changed from “King of Eng-
land” to “King of the United
Kingdom”, as successive Acts of
Union joined England, Scotland
and Ireland into one political
unit. However, the biggest
change in the royal title came in
1876, when the Royal Titles Act
made Queen Victoria Empress
of India. This gave her authority
even over those areas of India
which were not formally subject
to British rule.
To give this change of title a
formal announcement in India,
the British authorities staged
what became the first of three
durbars – ceremonial events
held in the British Raj to formal-
ly proclaim the imperial title.
Queen Victoria’s was held in
1877, the year following the act,
but Edward VII’s and George V’s
were held in conjunction with
their coronations.
The viceroy of India in 1877,
Lord Lytton, concocted the orig-
inal durbar from a mixture of
Persian, Mughal and English
ceremonial traditions, as a for-
mal proclamation of the queen’s
title. When her son became Ed-
ward VII in 1901, a bigger dur-
bar was organised to proclaim
his imperial title – although,
like his mother, Edward re-
mained in London.
In 1911, George V and Queen
Mary travelled to India for an
elaborately staged coronation
durbar, where they would take
centre stage. This raised tricky
questions of protocol. George’s
coronation in Westminster Ab-
bey invested him with all his
imperial titles, so what would be
the impact of being “crowned”
in India? Would it mean that his
successors would not be emper-
ors unless they held a durbar?
And what did it mean for his
predecessors who had not at-
tended theirs?
The crown of England was
not allowed to leave the country,
so a special crown was con-
structed for George V to wear in
India, while Queen Mary wore
her “best diadem” – a heavily
ornamented headband. They sat
sweating under the Delhi sun in
their heavy coronation robes,
furs and all.
In the end, the Delhi durbar
consisted of Indian princes pay-
ing homage to the king-emperor
in a ceremony that owed as
much to European feudalism as
it did to Indian tradition. Plans
for George VI to have an Indian
durbar were postponed in the
post-abdication sense of general
exhaustion, and abandoned as
war loomed.
CORONATION AND THE
COMMONWEALTH
The 1931 Statute of Westminster
formalised the evolution of
some former colonies into self-
governing dominions within a
British commonwealth. Both
George VI and Elizabeth II were
crowned as monarchs over the
UK and of territories overseas.
The coronation oath, a legal re-
quirement dating back to the
Coronation Oath Act of 1688,
has been amended on various
occasions, taking account of
former colonies which have be-
come republics.
The oath Charles III will take
has been amended slightly to
cover his duties to his other
kingdoms by agreement with
their governments. Even so, for
the king of Canada to be
crowned in London is a remind-
er that the modern monarch’s
title still reflects the old empire.
ELEMENTS OF EMPIRE
Even the medieval roots of the
coronation have elements of em-
pire built into them. The Stone
of Scone, which will be placed
beneath the coronation chair,
was removed from Scotland by
Edward I as a symbol of Scot-
land’s subjugation to England.
Scottish nationalists demanded
the stone’s return to Scotland
for years.
When John Major acceded to
their wishes in 1996, it was on
condition that the stone would
return to Westminster for fu-
ture coronations – a gesture
some see as an unwelcome rem-
nant of England’s imperial hold
over Scotland, though others
regard it as a symbol of unity
.
In a nod to Welsh nationalist
feeling, King Charles’s corona-
tion will also include the kyrie
(Lord Have Mercy) performed in
Welsh.
One item of the crown jewels
is a stark reminder of empire –
but it will notably be missing
from the coronation ceremony.
The Koh-i-Noor diamond was
taken by the British after their
wars with the Sikh kingdom of
Punjab, and presented to Queen
Victoria in 1849. It was reshaped
by Prince Albert and fitted into
the crown jewels. Both Queen
Alexandra and Queen Mary
wore it at their coronations,
though Queen Mary, tactfully,
did not wear it for the 1911 coro-
nation durbar.
Seeing the diamond as symbol
of British imperial acquisitive-
ness, the Indian government has
demanded its return, though,
historically, both Pakistan and
Iran could also lay claim to it.
Camilla, the Queen Consort, has
decided to be crowned in Queen
Mary’s crown, from which the
famous diamond has been re-
moved. The controversy about
the Koh-i-Noor will doubtless
continue, but won’t intrude on
this coronation ceremony
.
A NEW-LOOK GUEST LIST
The biggest move away from im-
perial tradition has been in the
compilation of the guest list. In
the past, the only rulers to re-
ceive an invite were those of
British overseas territories,
such as Queen Salote of Tonga,
who delighted the crowds in
1953 by braving the rain in an
open-top carriage and scorning
an umbrella.
Charles III has departed from
precedent by issuing invitations
to monarchs from Europe and
the Middle East, regardless of
whether or not they had ties to
the British empire. Some other
heads of state are also attending,
though the US will be represent-
ed by the first lady, Jill Biden,
rather than the president.
At a time when polling sug-
gests declining support for the
monarchy, especially among the
young, the coronation might
seem an irrelevant, if colourful,
distraction from more pressing
concerns.
There has been similar indif-
ference before other royal
events. Elizabeth II’s silver jubi-
lee in 1977 was preceded by
“stuff the jubilee” protests, but
still proved a popular success.
The unexpectedly warm public
responses to her subsequent ju-
bilees, and especially to her fu-
neral, might suggest that many
British are secretly more royal-
ist than polling would suggest.
By inviting representatives of
a wide range of ethnic groups
and different faiths to partici-
pate in the ceremony, the king is
turning his coronation into a
reflection of his diverse and de-
cidedly post-imperial kingdom.
The coronation is still not en-
tirely free of echoes of empire,
but it represents an important
stage in the modern monarchy’s
move away from its shadow.

New Delhi: America,
the world's biggest su-

through a period of cri-

less than a month left to
save its reputation. US
Treasury Secretary Ja-
net Yellen has warned
that the US could run
out of cash by June 1 if
the Biden Administra-
tion fails to extend or
suspendthedebtceiling.
It means the US gov-
ernment has crossed its
spending limit and if it
does not increase the
borrowing limit imme-
diately, then on June 1,
2023 the government
will run out of money to
runthecountry
.Toavoid
such a situation, Yellen
has appealed to the gov-
ernment to take action
as soon as possible.
US President Joe
Biden has called a meet-
ing of Congress leaders
on this issue on May 9.
The opposition House
Republicans in the US
Parliament last week
passed a bill to raise the
debt ceiling, with sug-
gestions of drastic cuts
in spending from
healthcare for the poor
to airfares for the
wealthy, but the ruling
Democrats rejected it
outrightly
. Biden is firm
on his stance of any dis-
cussion on budget cuts
only after increasing
the debt limit. Looking
back, the debt ceiling in
the US has been raised
or revised 78 times since
the 1960s. Ronald Rea-
gan extended it 19 times,
Bill Clinton 8 times,
George W
. Bush 7 times,
and Barack Obama 5
times. That is, whoever
the government may be,
the debt crisis is not a
new thing for America.
There is a possibility
that due to default,
America may be in the
grip of recession, GDP
may take a 5% dive
unemployment may
cross all limits with 70
lakh jobs at immediate
stake. The situation is
that America's debt-to-
GDP ratio has reached
120%, which is even
higher than during the
2nd World War.

New Delhi (PTI): Next
year’s Republic Day Pa-
rade here could see all-
women marching and
band contingents with
authorities working on
such a proposal for the
ceremonial event to be
held at Kartavya Path,
defence sources said.
The defence ministry
,
in March, had circulat-
ed an office memoran-
dum to the three ser-
vices and various min-
istries and departments
on the planning for the
2024 parade, they said.
The memorandum
mentioned such a pro-
posal being considered
and added that a “de-
briefing meeting” was
held under the chair-
manship of the defence
secretary in early Feb-
ruary, the sources said.
After deliberations, it
has been decided that
the Republic Day Pa-
rade 2024 will have only
women participants in
the contingents (march-
ing and band), tableaux
and other performanc-
es during the parade at
the Kartavya Path, says
the memorandum. A
few all-women contin-
gents, and women offic-
ers, including those
leading military contin-
gents comprising men,
have taken part in the
annual parade on Raj-
path (now Kartavya
Path) in the last few
years. India showcased
its military might and
vibrant cultural herit-
age during the 74th Re-
public Day Parade held
on January 26 this year,
with ‘Nari Shakti’ be-
ing a dominant theme.
The Indian Air Force
marching contingent
of 144 air warriors was
led by a woman officer,
with three supernu-
merary male officers in
the 2023 parade, which
was the first Republic
Day celebrations held
at the ceremonial
boulevard since the re-
vamping of the Central
Vista and renaming of
Rajath last year.
The first Republic
Day celebrations were
held in 1950 at the Irwin
Stadium (renamed Ma-
jor Dhyan Chand Na-
tional Stadium), and
since 1951, the ceremo-
nial parade has been
taking place on Rajpath.

Congress on Sunday al-
leged that the amount
spent on Delhi CM
Arvind Kejriwal’s resi-
dence was `171 crore
and not `45 crore as his
government had to buy
additional flats for offic-
ers whose houses had to
be either demolished or
vacated for the expan-
sion of the CM’s resi-
dential complex.
Accusing Kejriwal of
faking a simple lifestyle
and instead spending
crores on his residence,

ome of simplicity in

by the whole cabinet of
Sheila Dikshit on their
homes in 15 years of its
rule is no match to the
amountspentbyArvind
Kejriwal on the renova-

Unseasonal rains hit sales of cooling appliances in Raj
Jaipur (PTI): While a
relatively cool start to
the summer season in
Rajasthan due to unsea-
sonal rains has most
people thanking the
weather gods, traders
selling air conditioners
and coolers are feeling
the heat due to weak
sales.
Large parts of Ra-
jasthan witnessed be-
low-normal tempera-
tures over the last two
months due to rains and
thunderstorms trig-
gered by back-to-back
western disturbances,
weather systems that
originate in the Medi-
terranean region and
bring unseasonal rain-
fall to northwest India.
The unseasonably
cool weather has affect-
ed the sale of cooling ap-
pliances.
According to Sachin
Gupta, president of Jay-
anti Market here, the
sale of air conditioners
has dropped 40 per cent
compared to last year
and that of coolers has
seen a 60 per cent de-
cline.
“The start of the sea-
son was good in Febru-
ary but soon after Holi,
when the weather start-
ed changing, sales start-
ed slowing down.
Throughout March and
April, sales were low be-
cause the temperature
hovered around 30-32
degrees Celsius,” said
Gupta, who is also a dis-
tributor of air condi-
tioners.
Companies are also
running various offers,
including cashback of-
fers, to boost sales, he
said. Ashutosh Joshi,
who sells coolers, said
there was a shortage of
coolers in the market
last year and the same
situation was expected
this year.
“However, March and
April have been dull for
us. Now the tempera-
ture has started increas-
ing and we expect sales
to pick up,” he said.
Cooler temperatures
have also hit potters’
earnings.
Mukesh Prajapat, a
potter in Gajsinghpura,
said he usually sells
around 1,500 earthen
pots from February to
June but has only sold
150 so far this year.
This is because of
rains keeping the tem-
perature in check, he
said. Bageshwari Devi,
a customer visiting Pra-
japat’s shop, said she
didn’t feel the need to
buy an earthen pot until
now.
“Because of cooler
weather in March and
April, I didn’t feel the
need to buy an earthen
pot. Now that the tem-
perature is starting to
rise, I have come to buy
one,” she said.
Traders and potters
can expect sales to pick
up soon as the meteoro-
logical department has
predicted warmer days
ahead. The weather of-
fice has forecast dry
weather and an in-
crease in day tempera-
tures over the next
three days.

been left. Whereas, their
junior IAS of 1995 batch
are already working on
the post of Additional
Secretary
.
Moreover, capable,
meritorious brilliant
officer of 2006 batch,
Gaurav Goyal’s non-em-
panelment has also been
considered a surprising
and uncommon develop-
ment whereas, his batch
mate IAS, in other state
cadres, have been em-
panelled.
Now let us talk about
posting and appoint-
ments. People have not
forgotten how long Sud-
hansh Pant had to wait
for becoming Secretary
.
1993 batch IAS Sandeep
Verma is awaiting a call
from Delhi for the post
of Additional Secretary
and the state govern-
ment has given its NOC
nearly six months back.
In this time, three lists
for appointment on the
post of Additional Sec-
retary have come, but
Sandeep’s name fea-
tured in none of them,
which is a surprise.
Similarly, it has been
long time since Praveen
Gupta, Ajeetabh Shar-
ma and Subeer Kumar
were issued NOC for
becoming JS, but no
one knows the reason
why these officials are
not being picked.
Whereas, Praveen and
Ajeetabh’s batches have
been freezed because of-
ficials junior to them,
have become Addition-
al Secretary
. Intermsof
ability and talent, our
IAS are second to none,
and the cases of Sand-
eep and Shikhar are ut-
most serious.
Able talented Raj IAS await Central deputation!

First India Bureau
Jaipur: Chief Minis-
ter Ashok Gehlot has
voiced concern over
the safety of students
from the state stranded
in violence-hit Ma-
nipur.
Manipur is witness-
ing violent clashes over
a move to grant sched-
uled tribe status to the
majority Metei commu-
nity in the state. Naga
and Kuki tribes who are
opposing this plan or-
ganised a ‘Tribal Soli-
darity March’ on
Wednesday after which
the clashes broke out.
Gehlot on Saturday
said that top officials of
his government are in
touch with officials in
the northeastern state.
“The news of some
students of Rajasthan
being trapped in Ma-
nipur violence is wor-
rying,” he said in a
tweet in Hindi.
“The Chief Secretary
and the Director Gen-
eral of Police of Ra-
jasthan are in touch
with senior officials
there and soon efforts
will be made to bring
them home safely,” the
Chief Minister said.
The Chief Minister
further added saying,
“The State government
is engaged in ensuring
safe return of students
and it will bear the en-
tire travel expenses of
students coming to Ra-
jasthan due to violence
in Manipur. Chief Res-
ident Commissioner in
Delhi and Commis-
sioner of Rajasthan
Foundation will coor-
dinate for students’
safe return.”
Raje, 2...
Addressing a pro-
gramme in Dholpur, Ge-
hlot said his govern-
ment could be saved be-
cause of the support of
three BJP leaders, for-
mer CM Vasundhara
Raje, former assembly
speaker Kailash Megh-
wal and MLA Shobha-
rani Kushwah. “(Union
ministers) Amit Shah,
GS Shekhawat and
Dharmendra Pradhan
conspired together to
topple my government.
They distributed money
in Rajasthan and they
are not taking the mon-
ey back now. I am sur-
prised why they are not
demanding the money
back from them (the
MLAs),” he claimed. “I
have even told the MLAs
that whatever money
they have taken, Rs 10
crore or Rs 20 crore, if
you have spent any-
thing, I will give that
part or I will get it from
AICC (All India Con-
gress Committee),” he
said. Gehlot alleged that
if the MLAs did not re-
turn the money, they
will always be under
pressure from Amit
Shah. “He is the Union
home minister, he will
intimidate...in Maha-
rashtra he divided Shiv
Sena,” Gehlot alleged.
He said that he was
made the Chief Minis-
ter by the party for a
third time and it was his
duty to take all along
and forget past happen-
ings and ensure the re-
turn of the party to
power in the assembly
elections, slated for later
this year.

CM PRAISES DHOLPUR COLLECTOR
WHY BOHRA, ABRAR OTHERS COULDN’T BE MINS?
Dholpur: Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot patted the back of
Dholpur Collector, Anil Agrawal and admired the good
work carried out by the district administration in the
various inflation relief camps being organised in the dis-
trict. Dholpur ranks second in the state in organising the
Mehangai Rahat camps.More than 5.35 lakh guarantee
cards under various schemes have been distributed in
the camps in Dholpur. District Collector is monitoring
the progress of inflation relief camps everyday.
CM Ashok Gehlot on Sunday expressed his pain over
not making ministers those MLAs who saved his gov-
ernment. “My govt survived because of 102 people. Rohit
Bohra, and Danish mAbrar were entitled to become min-
isters. 6 MLAs from BSP and independents were entitled
to become ministers. But could not make them ministers
due to political reasons,” he said in Dholpur. Out of BSP
MLAs, only Rajendra Gudha could become a minister.

‘Cong govt excelled in
social welfare works’
Shanti Dhariwal greets the people of Khatik community during a
programme held at the UIT Auditorium in Kota on Sunday.
“CM’s statement...
The truth is that he has made such outrageous and untrue al-
legations in his fury because of the rebellion happening in his
own party and the mass base slipping away,”
she said. Raje said that as far as horse-trading
is concerned, Ashok Gehlot himself is the
mastermind behind it. “He did this in 2008 and
2018 as he was in minority. At that time nei-
ther BJP nor Congress got a majority. At that
time, if we wanted, we too could have formed
the government, but it was against the principles of the BJP.
On the contrary, Gehlot formed the government both the
times by arranging MLAs through his transactions,” she said.
To avoid the historic defeat in 2023 elections, he is creating
such fabricated stories, which is unfortunate and this trick of
his is not going to be successful.

Your own Fashion
City First brings to you glimpses of the royal red lehengas that
will add charisma to your look in this wedding season!
s wedding season ap-
proaches, the search
for the perfect attire
becomes more and
more intense. One of
the most popular
choices for brides-to-
be is the royal red le-
henga. This tradi-
tional attire has been
worn for genera-
tions and has be-
come a symbol
of elegance and
sophistication.
The royal red lehenga is a
three-piece ensemble consist-
ing of a skirt, a blouse, and a
dupatta (scarf). The skirt is
typically heavily embellished
with intricate embroidery, in-
tricate sequin work, and
beautiful beadwork. The
blouse is also usually heavily
embellished with the same at-
tention to detail. The dupatta
is typically made of soft, flow-
ing material and is also
adorned with embroidery or
sequin work.
The color red has a signifi-
cant meaning in Indian cul-
ture. It symbolizes love, pas-
sion, and fertility, making it
the perfect color for weddings.
The royal red lehenga is also a
symbol of wealth and prosper-
ity, as it is often made of ex-
pensivematerialsandfeatures
intricate designs that require
skilled craftsmanship.
One of the main reasons
why the royal red lehenga is
so popular is that it suits all
skin tones. The rich red hue
flatters both fair and darker
skin tones, making it a versa-
tile option for all brides. The
lehenga can also be custom-
ized to suit different prefer-
ences and tastes. For example,
some brides opt for a lighter
shade of red or add touches of
gold or silver for a more glam-
orous look.
The royal red lehenga has
been worn by many famous
Indian brides, including Aish-
warya Rai, Deepika Padu-
kone, and Priyanka Chopra.
Their iconic wedding lehen-
gas have inspired many
brides-to-be to choose a simi-
lar style for their big day
.

AssociationofIron-deficiency
ANEMIA IN KIDS
withfebrile seizure
DR YOGESH YADAV
The writer is a senior child
specialist Associate
Professor at JK Lone
Hospital
DR GOVIND CHAUDHARY
The writer is a
resident doctor
at JK Lone
Hospital
n this research work done
in Rajasthan’s JK Lone
Hospital, it was found
that children who come
with febrile convulsions
have some relationship
with iron deficiency ane-
mia and iron deficiency in the
body
. This research work has also
been published in the Indian Jour-
nal of Applied Research. Seizures
in fever are such a problem that
always worries the parents.
Febrile convulsions are a com-
mon condition that affects young
children,typicallybetweentheages
of 6monthsand5years.Theyoccur
when a child develops a fever, usu-
ally as a result of an infection, and
the fever triggers a seizure. Febrile
convulsions can be frightening for
parents to witness but do not cause
anylong-termharm.Thechanceof
future epilepsy is only 1 to 2%.
The problem occurs in 2-5% of
children. At the age of six months
to five years, seizures with fever
are usually present, in this, when
children have fever, then the child
becomes unconscious along with
jerks in the hands and feet. Most of
them come at the age of 1-2 years.
Apart from hemoglobin in the
body
, iron is a major component of
brain metabolism and many en-
zymes. That’s why iron deficiency
increases the chances of seizures
in children.
In the research work, two
groups of 80-80 children were
made and one group was of chil-
dren having seizures with fever
and the other group was of chil-
dren with fever who did not have
seizures. It was found that chil-
dren who had seizures were found
to be iron deficient.
 Children suffer no pain or discomfort during a fit.
 A febrile convulsion is not epilepsy. No regular drugs are needed.
 A short-lived fit will not cause brain damage. Even a long fit almost never
causes harm. Children who have had a febrile convulsion grow up healthy.
 If you have concerns or questions, contact your doctor. In an emergency, take
your child to the nearest hospital emergency department.
 There is a medication called Midazolam that is sometimes recommended for
children who have a history of febrile convulsions lasting longer than 5 minutes.
Most children do not require this medication. If you would like more information
about this treatment, you should talk with your doctor.
REASSURANCE FOR PARENTS ABOUT FEBRILE CONVULSIONS
MOST COMMON SYMPTOMS
The most common symptoms of febrile
convulsions include shaking or twitch-
ing, loss of consciousness, and some-
times, loss of bowel or bladder control.
These symptoms usually last for just a
few minutes and then subside on their
own. Neither anti-seizure medication
nor anti-fever medication is recom-
mended to prevent further febrile sei-
zures. Efforts to rapidly cool the child’s
body during a seizure have not been ex-
tensively studied but are not recom-
mended. The long-term outcome of chil-
dren with febrile seizures is generally
excellent with similar academic achieve-
ments to other children.
Febrile convulsions can be scary, but
they are generally not serious and do not
cause any long-term harm. With proper
care and attention, your child should re-
cover quickly and be back to their nor-
mal self in no time.
One in every 20 chil-
dren will have one or
more febrile convul-
sions. A febrile convulsion is not epi-
lepsy and does not cause brain damage.
Around 30% of babies and children who
have had one febrile convulsion will
have another. There is no way to predict
who will be affected or when this will
happen.
GENETIC
There is evidence that many children
with febrile seizures have a genetic pre-
disposition to have febrile seizures. If a
child with a febrile seizure has an identi-
cal twin (monozygotic), the twin is much
more likely to also have a febrile seizure
than if the twin is non-identical (dizy-
gotic). First-degree relatives (mother,
father, sibling) of a child with febrile sei-
zures have a risk of 10–15% of having a
febrile seizure compared with the gen-
eral risk in the population of only
3–4%.
If your child experiences a
febrile convulsion, there are a
few things you can do to help:
 Stay calm. Although it can be scary
to see your child having a seizure, re-
member that febrile convulsions are
not usually serious and will
pass on their own.
 Protect your child
from injury. Move any
objects that your child
might bump into out of
the way, and gently hold
your child to prevent them from fall-
ing.
 Monitor your child’s breathing. Make
sure your child is breathing normally
and that their airway is clear.
 Take your child’s temperature and
give them medication if necessary
. If
your child’s fever is high, you can give
them acetaminophen or ibuprofen to
bring it down.
 Seek medical attention if necessary.
In most cases, febrile convulsions do
not require medical treatment.
However, you should call your doctor
if your child has a prolonged seizure
(more than 5 minutes), if they
have difficulty breathing, or if they
have another seizure soon after the
first one.
TYPES OF FEBRILE SEIZURES
There are two types of febrile seizures: Simple and Complex. Simple febrile seizures
involve an otherwise healthy child with a single, one episode of a generalized
seizure lasting less than 15 minutes. Complex febrile seizures have one or more of
the following: focal symptoms such as jerking of only one side of the body, duration
greater than 15 minutes, or two or more seizures within 24 hours. About 60–70% are
classified as simple febrile seizures and 30–40% as complex.

It is said that anemia
due to iron is a com-
mon problem and we
can easily get rid of the
problem by supplement-
ing iron and not only it removes
anemia in children but also helps in
preventing seizures. If this hap-
pens, we should give iron supple-
ments to the children and keep
checking their iron status from time
to time.
