Woohoo .. both Apapang and Alang have successfully crossed over, while Ahu is just about to reach...three Amurs, one breathtaking migration and a million people watching in awe ..@sureshwii#AmurFalconMigration
Here is an update - All three satellite-tagged Amur Falcons Apapang (male), Alang (young female) and Ahu (female) are now undertaking their daring Arabian Sea crossing. Apapang has already flown nonstop for 76 hours, covering 3100 km at an average of 1000 km per day, aided by strong easterly tailwinds. From here, the journey becomes even more extraordinary as they head towards Somalia on their epic 3000 km oceanic flight @sureshwii@wii_india #Amurfalcons
And the epic journey begins again in all its glory. Three new travellers, Apapang (adult male) orange track, Alang (young female) Yellow track, and Ahu (adult female) Red Track, were satellite-tagged on 11th November 2025 as part of the Manipur Amur Falcon Tracking Project (Phase 2) by @wii_india . In just days, Apapang has stunned trackers with an extraordinary non-stop flight, already cutting across central India and now skimming the Arabian Sea, poised for a 3,000 km oceanic crossing to Somalia,one of the most demanding journeys undertaken by any raptor on the planet. From the forests of Manipur to the vast African landscapes that await them, these tiny birds barely 150 grams continue to remind us of the sheer wonder of migration, and why India’s protection of stopover sites has become a global conservation story. What a wonder ! Credits @sureshwii

Her brother was not there, but in his place the entire Army family stood tall. In Sirmaur, soldiers of the 19 Grenadier Battalion came in uniform for the wedding of martyred Ashish’s sister. Ashish made the supreme sacrifice at the border in 2024, and his comrades stood like true brothers so she would not feel his absence.
AI Audio is getting seriously good for Indic languages. Used this short section from Shashikiran's write-up in Prekshaa to try out ElevenLabs v3 that supports Kannada. The pitch variation in the voice to keep listeners engaged & meaningfully transforming to ಆಡುಭಾಷೆ is impressive!
@happymi_ If so, you are going to miss out on one of the most beautiful feelings in the world, holding your little baby in your arms and watching them grow. And if what you’re thinking does happen, the laws of the land are on your side. 😊
Oh, I agree! Got these everyday earrings crafted by our in-house artisans and I can’t stop flaunting them already. Adorning a piece of heritage, every single day. :)
This is going to be an unpopular opinion but everyone should work towards educating your next generation in a manner that enables them to move out of India at the first possible opportunity.
