Hi! I spent the last 13 months writing stories across India's west coast - from port development and fish famine to chemical pollution to water scarcity to diversion - with the underlying theme of prioritization of corporate interests over communities and water ecosystems.#THREAD

This #documentary is now finished after three months of labour. It largely focuses on how small-scale fishers in #WestBengal's East Midnapore are affected by #climatechange and #development initiatives. #Watch and share your feedback: https://t.co/9rhmuPlwWf

Continuing with my work in SBR to understand the livelihood impacts of small-scale fishworkers arising out of restrictions to access fishing grounds.

This short #photoessay explores the multitude of issues faced by the small scale fishers in the Indian #Sundarbans or the #SundarbanBiosphereReserve (SBR) currently.

I haven't gotten any sleep and been up all night, yet I cannot get over these pictures. They're the most heartbreaking yet beautiful images of male friendship, intimacy, vulnerability, and bonding that I've seen in sports. What has made #Fedal so special? 🧵

Democracy must ensure that people can 'see' the State transparently & not the other way around. In today's @the_hindu I argue how some recent moves by the govt are likely to dehumanise, increase indignity & exacerbate the power asymmetry between rights holders and govt.

Good thread on Sri Lanka, IMF neoliberal conditionality, and what R Ramakumar calls the “green imperialists” and purveyors of organic ag pseudoscience such as the garlanded Vandana Shiva.

Starting with... the migrations of prehistoric humanity.
