Great Nicobar is not an empty land waiting for unscientific development. It is home to ancient rainforests, endangered wildlife, coral ecosystems, and Indigenous communities whose lives are deeply tied to the island.
Roughly 2,50,000 women are diagnosed with #ovariancancer every year worldwide, and an estimated 1,40,000 die from it. Often called the deadliest gynaecological cancer, it still receives only a fraction of the attention given to breast cancer. Why does ovarian cancer still struggle to find a louder voice?

Excellent news. I have worked with @tkarun (TK, as we call him) and he is one of the very few Indians with a comprehensive sense of this country -- from villages to macro-economy, politics, geopolitics, defence, society, you name it. All this + a fearless, independent mind.

Some posts are paid far less as “fixed honorarium.” Even daily labourers in the bazaar get ₹800+ now.
Why is minimum wage not applied equally? Any idea?

From the loss of 10 million trees to the release of 20 million tonnes of carbon, this episode breaks down what the mega port, airport, and township plan means for one of India’s most fragile ecosystems and for the country’s climate goals.

Modi’s port wins, Great Nicobar Island loses
Huge ecological damage would result from the mega development.
An island that could soon lose close to 1 million trees, what’s worrying investor Raamdeo Agrawal and the short version of Trump’s long speech. https://t.co/GTN5Z9ORu5
Some 1.7m people in India die annually from causes related to bad air, according to The Lancet. Yet the government plays down the problem https://t.co/xfJ7S9OW76
Destruction of a unique ecosystem. Erosion of the cultural identity of indigenous tribes. Can't India grow without destroying Great Nicobar? Can a nation with conscience stay silent to this catastrophe? Or are we all pawns to Adani Ambani?
Speak up plz. #SavetheGreatNicobar
