Kia Scratch Care Initiative, Never heard off!

The Nissan Magnite has just been launched in India, making it the newest entrant in the compact SUV segment.The Magnite’s introductory prices start at Rs 4.99 lakh for the base XE trim-level and goes up to Rs 9.45 lakh for the top-spec XV Premium (O) CVT.  The company has also announced that prices are introductory and will go up from January 1, 2021. 

It comes with a naturally aspirated (NA) petrol and a turbo-petrol engine.
The Turbo-petrol is available with CVT automatic gearbox option
It comes in in five main trims –XE, XL, XV, XV Premium, XV Premium (O).

__Nissan Magnite features__

Nissan is offering the Magnite in five main trim-levels – XE, XL, XV, XV Premium and XV Premium (O). In top spec, the Magnite gets a long equipment list that includes LED bi-projector headlamps with LED DRLs, 16-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels, electrically adjustable and foldable wing mirrors, roof-rails as well as front and rear faux skid plates.

Furthermore, it also gets an 8.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system with a segment-first wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, a 7.0-inch TFT display for instrument cluster, voice recognition technology, push-button start,cruise control, a 360-degree around view camera, tyre pressure-monitor and all-black interior

__Nissan Magnite Technology pack__

For the Magnite XV, XV Premium and XV Premium (O) trims, Nissan also offers an optional Technology Package. For an extra Rs 39,000, this package adds equipment like wireless charging, air purifier, ambient mood lighting, puddle lamps, and JBL speakers, over and above the already available features.

__Nissan Magnite design__

In terms of styling, the compactSUV is well proportioned and has a muscular stance thatis accentuated by its strong body lines. Some of the Magnite’s stand-out design features include the L-shaped LED DRLs, swept-back headlights, large octagonal grille, thick C-pillars, haunches above the rear, and the black body cladding that goes around the SUV. Dual-tone colour schemes are available with all variants save for the lower-spec XE and XL, and add Rs 14,000 to the price.

__Nissan Magnite engine and gearbox options__

Under the hood, the Magnite comes with the choice of two petrol engines. The first is a 1.0-litre, three-cylinder,naturally aspirated engine producing 72hp, whilethe second option is a 1.0-liter, three-cylinder,turbo-petrol unit (HRA0) that churns out 100hp and 160Nm of torque. Nissan is not going to offer a diesel engine with the Magnite.

In terms of gearbox options, both engines come paired with a 5-speed manual gearbox as standard. The turbo-petrol additionally gets the option of a CVT automatic gearbox,but in this configuration the engine’s torque output drops by 8Nm (to 152Nm).

__Nissan Magnite rivals__

Being a compactSUV, the Nissan Magnite will face stiff competition from the likes of the Kia Sonet, Hyundai Venue, Mahindra XUV300, Tata Nexon, Ford EcoSport, Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza and the Toyota Urban Cruiser. 

It is worth mentioning that the Magnite’s pricing makes it the cheapest offering in its segment, and by a decent margin at that. At its introductory Rs 4.99 lakh starting price, it is priced substantiallylower than the Kia Sonet (Rs 6.71 lakh) and Hyundai Venue (Rs 6.75 lakh), both of which previously had the most affordable starting prices in the segment.

Even on the higherend of the spectrum, the Magnite continues to undercut its rivals.At Rs 9.45 lakh, the CVT equipped top-spec XV Premium (O) trim is cheaper than all the entry-level automatic compact SUVs, barring the AMT-equipped Nexon XMA. In fact, the top-spec manual’s price is closer to its rival’s mid-spec trim-levels.

These factors combined should help increase the Magnite’s appeal in our market.

Five Central pool MBBS seats have been reserved for this category for the year 2020-21, said a release issued by the Ministry.

Union Minister for Health and Family Welfare Harsh Vardhan on Thursday announced the government’s decision to introduce a new category called ‘Wards of COVID Warriors’ in the guidelines for selection and nomination of candidates against Central pool MBBS seats for 2020-21.

The Minister added that the State/Union Territory governments will certify the eligibility for this category. “The selection of candidates will be made by the Medical Council Committee (MCC) through online application on the basis of the rank obtained in NEET-2020 conducted by National Testing Agency,” said the Ministry.

Central pool MBBS seats may be allocated for selection and nomination of the candidates from among the wards of COVID warriors who lost their lives due to COVID-19 or died accidentally while on COVID-19-related duty.

COVID warriors are all public healthcare providers including community health workers, who may have to be in direct contact and care of COVID-19 patients and who may be at risk of being impacted by this.

Private hospital staff and retired/volunteer/local urban bodies/contracted/ daily wage/ad hoc/outsourced staff requisitioned by States/ Central hospitals/autonomous hospitals of Central/States/UTs, AIIMS and Institutes of National Importance/hospitals of Central Ministries drafted for COVID-19-related responsibilities are all included, the Ministry said.
