29. Beware of Private Journal of Innovative Publication
Last updated:Nov 27 2015 |
To,
All the Members of IRIA
Dear Colleagues,
Some private publisher (M/s Innovative Publication) who runs a Journal has been writing to all our members in to write articles in it. In the beginning, it has started publishing International "Journal of Radiology & Imaging" which is abbreviated like our Journal "IJRI". On our strong objection, the publisher changed its name to "International Journal of Diagnostic Radiology & Imaging".
I would like to inform you that this is private Journal and IRIA has nothing to do with this. So please do not fall prey to these publishers. Their emails are nothing to do with Indian Journal of Radiology and Imaging i.e. IJRI our Journal.
In case of any doubts on this matter, please feel free to contact IRIA office on iria37@gmail.com
Beware from such unscrupulous people and Journals.
Thanking you,
Yours sincerely,
Dr Pramod Loniker
Secretary General

38. Social Security Scheme of IRIA
Last updated:Jul 5 2014 |
Social Security Scheme
Indian Radiological & Imaging Association
SUCCESS STORY
This scheme was started in April 2012, after the approval from General Body meeting held at Hyderabad. As on today, the total membership strength of Social Security Scheme is beyond 300 and rapidly increasing day by day.
We have paid a sum of Rs 1.5 lakh to nominee of member as Death benefit (this was done in just two weeks. After his demise without any paper formality).
As you know that the Social Security Scheme is purely designed on brotherhood/sisterhood basis and we try to help the family members of IRIA on event of death of member. Any Life Member of IRIA upto age of 65 years residing in India is eligible to become a member of this Scheme. Growth of scheme in just two years of its inception has proved that it was very much essential for our organization. It is very much beneficial to members and their family, especially at the time of untimely death of the member. Member will have to pay one time premium with enrolment fee depending upon his/her age. He/she has to pay small amount yearly as Annual Membership charges and Death Fraternity Contribution (DFC) depending upon number of death of members in that year. Death benefit is given from interest & DFC collected from members of the Scheme. There is no other investment that will give you this much return and satisfaction of helping our own colleagues family in their difficult time.
We have target of 500 membership before Cochin Conference. If we do so we will be able to give Rs 3.0 lacks to nominee of members in case of his/her death.
NOW ONLY WE WILL BE ABLE TO GIVE 2 LACS TO THE FAMILY OF MEMBER.
Finally, I appeal all Life Members of IRIA to join this scheme which is very beneficial.
SMALL AMOUNT OF SAVING TODAY WILL HELP YOUR FAMILY IN BIG WAY TOMORROW.
THIS SCHEME OF OUR ASSOCIATION IS BETTER THAN ANY OTHER INSURANCE IN INDIA WITH A SMALL ONETIME PREMIUM.
JOIN TODAY ONLY BEFORE YOU ARE LATE.
Yours sincerely,
Dr. Suresh Saboo
Chairman, Social Security Scheme of IRIA

Last updated:Feb 18 2013 |
Dear Colleagues,
It has been brought to my notice that one software company person is calling all doctors and selling his so called set top box like machine at Rs 20,000/- for portable machine by saying it has been legalized and is encouraging to do portable study !!
Please beware as his claims are totally wrong as portable Ultrasound is banned as per PC & PNDT Act. Please read high court verdict properly - if you are caught with machine at unregistered place you will be in trouble for which only yourself shall be responsible. Please do not fall in trap of such wrong illegal claims.
With best wishes and regards,
Yours sincerely,
Dr. O. P. Bansal
