India’s Ramsar site tally reaches 103 🇮🇳🌿
India continues to strengthen its commitment to wetland conservation, with Sukhna Lake in Chandigarh and Sauj Jheel in Uttar Pradesh becoming the latest additions to the list of Ramsar Sites.
This milestone highlights the importance PM Shri @narendramodi ji’s government has been laying on wetlands in conserving biodiversity, enhancing water and climate security, and sustaining local livelihoods.
These additions reaffirm India’s ongoing efforts to conserve its rich wetland ecosystems and strengthen the ecological, climatic and livelihood benefits they provide. 🌏💧
I congratulate Uttar Pradesh and Chandigarh for this feat.
Dear travellers, do visit Sukhna and Sauj next time you have a couple days at hand.

As they released the Great Indian Bustards into the wild in Rajasthan’s Sam, Desert National Park, saw Dr Sutirtha Dutta, Dr Tushna Karkariya, and Hrishika Sharma got all emotional.
One can only imagine how some dedicate their entire lives to selfless causes.
No words of praise are enough for them and the entire team that has made it possible.

Fieldwork is isolating & learning the local language is an essential tool to help integrate & understand the local context of work. Anaikatty taught me Tamizh, Kudremukh taught me Kanada. Punjab, Haryana, MP & other places we get by with Hindi... #NextIsWhat

Our new study suggests that bats originated in Europe around 65 million years ago and revises our understanding of how several major bat groups are related. Proud to be part of the international Bat1K team behind this work.

4/4
Perhaps it is.
But I would rather risk making an intrusive phone call than risk never making the call that might have mattered.
For me, having them around is more important than anything else.
