The colossal rock-cut image of Anantasayi Vishnu is located at Saranga in Dhenkanal district, Odisha, on the left bank of the Brahmani River.

Carved in high relief on an exposed rock outcrop, it is noteworthy for its grand scale and is regarded as the largest rock-cut image of Anantasayi Vishnu in a reclining posture in the country.

Based on its iconography and the design of the crown, the sculpture is dated to the late Bhaumakara period, around the 9th century CE.

It is richly ornamented and is distinctive for being depicted without the traditional serpent hood. Features such as the pointed chin, prominent nose, and the kiritamukuta (crown) further reflect the artistic style of the period.

An Open Letter to the Jantar Mantar protestors:

My dear young friends,

I address you today not as a politician or an MP, but as someone deeply troubled by what is happening to your generation of young Indians.

This is personal for me. I was born to a middle-class family: my father was a salaried newspaper employee, my mother a homemaker, with three children to educate on one income. For a family like ours, merit was not a slogan. Scholarships, fair examinations, honest results — these were the only way one salary could carry three children's dreams.

I went to school in Mumbai and Kolkata, to college here in Delhi, topped the University and earned admission into IIM — and chose instead to follow my passion for international affairs, in America, on a scholarship. Nothing was inherited; everything was earned by hard work and yes, Exams.

So I know that a fair, merit-based system is the only ladder for young people from lower and middle-income families to climb up. When that ladder is broken — papers leaked, examinations cancelled, trust destroyed — the children of the rich and powerful do not suffer. They have other ladders. It is your dreams, and your families' sacrifices (and tragically, in some homes, young lives themselves) that are betrayed.

To the young people gathered at Jantar Mantar, and those raising your voices peacefully across India: this country hears you. Your anger is not indiscipline — it is the anguish of a generation that did everything right and was still betrayed . You are not alone.

And to the millions of young Indians watching quietly: your generation is not a problem to be managed. You are the answer to India's future. Do not lose hope. This ladder will be rebuilt — by you, and by every Indian who stands with you.

To Shri Sonam Wangchuk-ji, my heartfelt appeal: please end your fast. You have awakened the conscience of the nation; that is what a fast is meant to do. India needs your voice for the long road ahead.

With Parliament in session again from Monday, we will have an opportunity to raise the students’ issues in the highest forum of our democracy. That’s where the problem should be addressed, not by fasting unto death. Please heed my plea.

And finally, to the Government: I respectfully urge you to reach out and engage in the dialogue our democracy owes its young citizens. That is not weakness; that is statesmanship.

158 वर्षों बाद दुर्लभ बैंगनी फूलों वाला हिमालयी पौधा साइनैंथस हूकेरी (Cyananthus hookeri) को भारत में एक बार फिर देखा गया है।

इस बार यह अरुणाचल प्रदेश के तवांग ज़िले की खूबसूरत चुना घाटी में पाया गया है।

One of the most remarkable discoveries from Dholavira, Gujarat, is this monumental Signboard, the largest known inscription from the Indus-Saraswati Civilisation and 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐝’𝐬 𝐨𝐥𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐭-𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐒𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐛𝐨𝐚𝐫𝐝. Comprising 10 large signs/letters made of Gypsum (each sign being appx. 36 cm tall) and the entire inscription stretching nearly 3 metres in length.

The site, located on the arid island of Khadir in Gujarat, was extensively excavated by the @ASIGoI over 13 field seasons from 1989 to 2005, unveiling indigenous urban sophistication in ancient Bharat.

From advanced water engineering to public inscriptions, Dholavira continues to reveal the remarkable capabilities of the Indus-Saraswati people, a legacy deeply rooted in the cultural and civilisational heritage of Bharat.

158 साल बाद फिर भारत में दिखा Cyananthus hookeri का पौधा!

#ArunachalPradesh के तवांग में वैज्ञानिकों को सैयान्थस हुकेरी के कई छोटे पौधे मिले. हिमालय पर मिलने वाला यह बैंगनी रंग के फूल वाला दुर्लभ पौधा करीब डेढ़ सौ साल बाद दिखा है.

इसे पहली बार Sir Joseph Dalton Hooker ने #Sikkim में दर्ज किया था.

अनुमान है कि इस प्रजाति के करीब 50 प��धे हिमालयी प्रदेशों में मौजूद हैं.

हिमालय केवल बर्फ और पहाड़ों का प्रतीक नहीं, अनेक दुर्लभ और अनमोल पौधे और जड़ी-बूटियों का घर है.
