I am deeply honoured and humbled to have been given the opportunity to serve as a member of the Central Board of Film Certification, by the Government of India. I don’t see the role as strict or liberal, but as a responsibility to be fair, balanced and guided by the law and certification guidelines of our country. As a filmmaker, I understand the passion behind every story. I hope to help find the right balance between creative freedom and respecting India’s extraordinary diversity, culture and values. I remain, above all, a filmmaker committed to the power of cinema. 🇮🇳🎬🙏 @PMOIndia @narendramodi @AshwiniVaishnaw @MohanMOdisha @CMO_Odisha @nfdcindia @MIB_India

🌍 Climate change is increasingly shaping how we protect public health. Healthcare is both on the frontlines of climate impacts and a contributor to emissions. 🏥🌱 Building resilient health systems requires connecting climate adaptation, disaster risk reduction, sustainability and health systems strengthening. At the World Health Summit expert meeting on Climate & Wellbeing Conclave, @UNDP_India joined partners for consultations on developing an Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Framework for climate-resilient Indian hospitals and a climate-smart Non-communicable Disease programme. 🌏💚 UNDP is proud to support @NCDCMoHFW in building resilient and climate-smart public health systems. 🤝 #ClimateAction #ClimateResilience #HealthSystems @NimsUniversity @thePHFI @MoHFW_INDIA @UNinIndia @UNDPHIVHealth @giz_gmbh @moefcc

Proud to see Puri hosting the BRICS Disaster Risk Reduction Working Group Meeting. Since the 1999 Super Cyclone, #Odisha has faced nature’s fury with courage and conviction, guided by one principle—every life is precious. Our famed zero‑casualty model, rooted in resilient infrastructure and community readiness, has transformed Odisha from vulnerability into a global beacon of disaster management. Welcome all delegates. Together, let us forge pathways to a safer, more resilient world.
