Three lives lay buried beneath the mud for nearly three days, and after all that, the mother dog broke down in tears after being rescued 💖✨
After heavy rains in Kerala, India, a minor landslide occurred near a residential area. Local people heard a faint whimper but could not work out where it was coming from.
The rain gradually eased, but the sound continued. Unwilling to ignore it, they began digging around the place where the cries seemed to be coming from and discovered a mother dog buried in the mud, with two newborn puppies beside her.
The three of them are believed to have been trapped for nearly three days without food or water. The puppies were trembling, their bodies covered in mud, while the mother remained trapped and unable to free herself.
The rescuers quickly brought them out. They washed the mud from the two puppies, dried them with towels and wrapped them in cloth to keep them warm.
Immediately after being rescued, the mother dog broke down in tears. She stood close to her puppies, watching as they were cleaned and kept warm, while her faint cries could still be heard.
No one can know exactly what the mother dog was feeling. But after nearly three days trapped in the mud, perhaps those cries were a mixture of stress, exhaustion and relief that she and her puppies had finally escaped the danger.
What is particularly striking is that the two puppies were still beside her. After days of being unable to free herself, the mother could now see her puppies being cared for and have them right beside her.
The people then built a small temporary shelter for the three of them beneath a telephone pole, giving them a place to stay and protecting them from the cold rain. They brought them food and water and continued caring for all three until they gradually recovered.
What still puzzled those who witnessed the rescue was how the three dogs had managed to survive beneath the mud for so long. There is not enough information to know exactly what allowed them to remain alive in those conditions.
But one thing is clear: without those cries, the people might never have known that a small family was trapped beneath the mud.
For an animal buried underground, making a sound may be one of the few ways it can signal that it is still alive. People do not need to understand exactly what that sound means to recognise that there is a living creature beneath the mud that needs to be found.
Natural disasters do not threaten only people. When landslides occur, water rises or shelters are destroyed, animals can also become trapped, lose their homes, become separated from those they depend on, or be unable to find food and water.
Rescuing an animal in such circumstances is therefore more than an act of compassion. It shows that people can extend their sense of responsibility to the other living creatures that share the same environment.
A society is judged not only by how it protects its most vulnerable people, but also by how it treats creatures that cannot speak for themselves. People cannot prevent natural disasters from happening, but they can still decide what to do when living beings are left in danger afterwards.
Perhaps the most memorable part of this story is that three lives survived because a very small cry was heard.
Shocked to see @IqraMunawwar_ being put under house arrest in Saharanpur to prevent her from meeting district officials in her own constituency.
How low can one stoop to prevent people's representatives from raising concerns of those who elected them?

This is @aakashibhatt & @shantanubhatt95,
8 years - 2,923 days of our father, Mr. Sanjiv Bhatt's unjust incarceration.
Today, 5th September, marks 8 years since this regime came into our home and took our father from us, tearing our family apart under the guise of trumped up charges manufactured to silence his voice of truth. Eight years is an extraordinary amount of time to measure the life of a family, but there are moments when time becomes a strange and almost meaningless measure: the calendar insists that eight years have passed; however, our hearts and souls remain rooted in that September morning when our world was turned upside down and torn apart.
When I look back at these past years, I often think about what our father chose to stand for, and the principles that have given meaning to everything that followed. From him, we learned that there are moments when an individual has to decide whether the safety of silence is worth the price of surrendering one’s conscience. From him we realised what it truly meant to stand in the path of power, when power had decided that it would rather not be questioned. Our father knew that the battle before him was profoundly unequal, uphill and lonesome; that institutions capable of protecting a society, when captured by power and stripped of their independence, become deadly instruments capable of destroying it. He was aware of the consequences of refusing to bend to the whims of this totalitarian regime and yet, he did, and still continues to fight against it with all his might!
That is who Sanjiv Bhatt is …
Not simply a name that appears in newspapers, nor the IPS officer who has become a symbol of something much larger, but our father, a man who possess the extraordinary strength and resilience to keep fighting a battle he knew would cost him everything, because he believed that some principles are more important than the preservation of one's own comfort, career or freedom.
His sacrifices were never made for himself. He fought for people who had suffered hate and violence for the political ambition of one man. He raised his voice when remaining silent would have been infinitely easier. He placed his career, his reputation, his freedom and, ultimately, years of his life on the line because he believed that those who wield enormous power must also be held to an enormous standard of accountability.
And for that, years of his life, his freedom have been cruelly ripped away from him.
But there is something the passage of these eight years has made increasingly clear to me: the greatest victory of repression is not breaking the person it targets, but convincing everyone watching that there is nothing they can do!
Because democracy does not disappear in a single dramatic moment. Its foundations are eroded far more quietly when institutions that were created to restrain power begin serving it; when the judiciary, which should be the last refuge of the powerless, fails to protect them; when due process becomes something that can be manipulated; when truth becomes inconvenient and therefore dangerous; and, perhaps most dangerous of all, when ordinary citizens decide that it is safer to look away, instead of raising their voices in the face of atrocities! That is how the pillars of a democracy begin to crumble. Not because people do not know what is happening, but because remaining wilfully oblivious is far “safer”.
For eight long years, we have watched this unfold around our father. We have watched the extraordinary machinery of power descend upon one man, and we have watched institutions that were supposed to stand between the citizen and the State fail, again and again, to live up to the promise for which they exist.
And still, our father continues to fight …
That, more than anything else, is the measure of his courage, his legacy!
Because courage is not measured by how loudly someone speaks when the world is listening, it is measured by what they are prepared to endure when the world has stopped listening!
Our father has and continues to endure …
He has endured the loss of his freedom, the destruction of his career, the years stolen from his family and the extraordinary weight of a system determined to break him.
Yet somehow, after eight years, the thing this regime has been unable to imprison is the very thing that made him dangerous to them to begin with … his refusal to surrender his conscience!
And perhaps that is why his fight matters now more than ever. For years, too many people learnt to lower their voices before they had even spoken. Questions were replaced by silent acceptance; outrage by apathy; courage by cowardice. An entire generation watched examples being made of exemplary individuals who dared to stand up against this regime and slowly began to believe that the safest way to survive was perhaps to remain silent …But silence comes with a terrible price!
A country cannot remain free when its people are afraid to question power. Institutions cannot remain independent when citizens stop demanding accountability. And justice cannot prevail when the judiciary ceases to be a shield for the people and becomes a weapon against those who dare to dissent. Democracy can survive only when ordinary people are willing to defend its most fundamental promise, that no power is above accountability, and no citizen should have to surrender their freedom, dignity or voice to remain safe.
And yet, perhaps that willingness to speak truth to power is beginning to return. Across the country, once again, people are raising their voices to question. They are beginning to look beyond the empty noise, beyond the propaganda, beyond the carefully constructed narratives that ask them to blindly accept rather than use their agency to examine. A generation that was taught to keep its head down is slowly beginning to lift it with courage and defiance!
Perhaps that is how the endless night finally begins to give way to a new dawn, not through one spectacular event, but through millions of ordinary people deciding, each in their own way, that they will no longer surrender their capacity to question!
And if there is one thing I have learnt from watching our father through all these years, it is that courage is contagious!
One person standing up against an entire regime can look insignificant. One voice can appear almost absurdly small against the mammoth machinery of power. But history has a way of remembering those who refused to bend, and of showing how one person’s courage can awaken the courage of millions!
Our father knew exactly what he was risking, and still chose courage over self-preservation, truth over silence, and conscience over fear. He did not stand up against this regime because he believed he was invincible; he stood because he believed some things were worth fighting for, whatever the cost!
Today, doesn’t just mark 2,923 days of separation, it marks 8 years of our relentless fight for justice …
I hope that everyone who reads this today will once again remember Sanjiv Bhatt ...
Remember the courage it took to confront power when doing so came at an unimaginable personal and professional cost …
Remember what happens when institutions created to protect citizens are weaponised against them …
Remember that the independence of the judiciary, the integrity of institutions and the rule of law are not abstract constitutional phrases; they are the barriers that stand between an ordinary citizen and the unchecked power of the State.
And remember that those barriers remain standing only for as long as we have the courage to defend them!
Eight years have passed since they tried to silence our father’s voice of truth.
Eight years since they stole his freedom, but failed to shake his courage.
Eight years since they tried to bury his resolve, but could not break his indomitable spirit
Eight years in which we have been reminded, again and again, that justice delayed is not merely time lost, it is a test of whether a society still possesses the courage to demand justice at all!
Our father dedicated his life fighting to protect the very secular, democratic fabric of our society, our nation. The least we can do is to refuse to let his voice stand alone!
We must stand together and raise our voices… not only for our father Mr Sanjiv Bhatt, but also for all those who have sacrificed everything to protect the rights, freedoms and values that belong to every citizen of our country.
Eight years on, our father is still standing strong, with his head held high, his conscience intact, and his resolve unbroken!
He refuses to bend, to be silenced, or surrender …And neither will we!
Our fight for justice continues!
We may be bloodied, battered and bruised ... but we remain unbroken, unbent, unbowed!
