A 100-yr-old tree was being cut in Vile Parle area today. I asked BMC officers for permission under which it was being done. I was later forcefully put in police van (in pic 2-screengrab from viral video) & was threatened with an FIR against me: Abhay Azad, Environmental activist
"...we brought young adults who are deafblind to a virtual platform, which, to be honest, was not an easy task."
An excerpt from Shrutilata Singh's article in DBI Review by @DeafblindInt on how we engaged with our networks in the pandemic. Page 49.
