We must ensure that no person loses his or her employment because of HIV. We must see that there is no social ostracisation. We should ensure that women are not doubly stigmatised,\u201d said the prime minister.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on Monday said ministries should make various schemes more accessible to people with HIV\/AIDS, from employment under the National Rural Employment Guarantee Programme to more access to women and children to Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS).
